Said arm belonged to one of her best friends, thank goodness. [color=7ea7d8]”CoCo,”[/color] she exclaimed, a large smile spreading across her face. [color=7ea7d8]”Of course you can! We’ve got a lot of catching up to do anyway. Been a hot minute.”[/color] As they entered the lunchroom, Sunshine was pleased to see that not that many people were here yet. Maybe they were out finding dates, or complaining about the administration's decision. Whatever the case, Sunshine was happy that she wouldn’t have to wait long for her food today. She hadn’t realized just how hungry she was until she began to smell the pizza. Getting in the waiting line, she turned to her friend. [color=7ea7d8]”So what’s your thoughts on this whole Valentines Day dance thing? Do they usually throw you guys curve balls for everything?”[/color] [color=#D2652C]"I'm not completely mad at it,"[/color] Chanel said as she peeked around Sunshine to see what was being served for lunch. She was relieved to see that they actually weren't being given something that resembled prison food; she set her sights on the tray of pepperoni pizza, and rummaged around her purse for a few dollars. [color=#D2652C]"On one hand, it's not like I'm dating anyone, so I would've ended up going with friends anyways. But on the other hand, I probably [i]could've[/i] found myself a date. Maybe some hot guy would've asked me, or I could've asked some random girl on my dance team or... someone cute like [i]her[/i]."[/color] As Chanel spoke, her eyes landed upon a girl who she'd only spoken to a handful of times: Chrissie McCoy. She was sashaying away from the Quad in her usual, theatrical way; Chanel's eyes only lingered on the girl for a second before returning their attention to Sunshine. [color=#D2652C]"It's whatever, though. This isn't the first time that King's has done some weird shit like this, but I don't think we really noticed or cared since it never affected us until this year... with it being our Senior year and all."[/color] The line moved quicker than usual thanks to the rest of the students had yet to leave for their lunch period; it wasn't long before Chanel's slice of pizza was within reach. As Chanels eyes followed Chrissie, Sunshine couldn’t help but turn to see who it was her friend had her sights set on. Sunshine recognized the girl, but couldn’t really remember her name. You couldn’t deny that she was pretty, or that Chanel had every right to be watching as she walked away. When the line began to move again, Sunshine quickly found herself grabbing a tray and ordering a slice of pizza from the lunch lady standing before her. [color=7ea7d8]”Well…”[/color] Sunshine said thoughtfully. [color=7ea7d8]”I’ve got a proposition for you. How about you and me go together? It’s not like I can take Shawna now, and me and you haven’t really had that much time to catch up since I’ve been back. Plus you [i]know[/i] that I can have a good time.”[/color] As Chanel paid for her things, she began to consider what her friend was saying. Beforehand, Chanel's obvious choices would've been Julie or April; but the more Sunshine spoke, the more she realized that she hadn't really been hanging out with her other friends as much as she probably should've been. Sunshine was completely right, they needed time to catch up; what better way to do that than by going to the dance with each other? [color=#D2652C]"You know what?"[/color] Chanel said as she stepped out of the line with her tray in hand. [color=#D2652C]"You're right. We should go together. I mean, what other duo is gonna turn this thing up like we will? And look the best while doing it?"[/color] [color=7ea7d8]”If we don’t win best dressed or some shit, I’ll flip.”[/color] Of course this was a mild exaggeration, but Chanel was right. Both girls had a flair for the dramatic when it came to dressing up. It would be a crime if they didn’t turn every head in the venue. After paying for her food, Sunshine led the way to one of the tables as she took a seat across from Chanel. [color=7ea7d8]”You sure though? I figured you’d have asked Julie or someone before I had the chance to catch you.”[/color] [color=#D2652C]"Hm..."[/color] Chanel said as she shrugged her shoulders and peeled one of the pepperonis off her pizza. [color=#D2652C]"That was the plan at first, but I'm sure Julie will understand. She's got a lot of other friends she could go with. Someone like April or Marisol... Besides, it's not like we all won't party with each other at the dance."[/color] [color=7ea7d8]”Sounds awesome! Can’t wait to show these people how to really party,”[/color] she said, a glimmer in her eye. [/indent][/indent][/indent] [/color]
