[sub] A collab starring: [color=ec008c]April[/color] & [color=35996B]Archer[/color][/sub][/center]

[indent][indent][indent][color=silver]
Archer had to bite the inside of his cheeks so as to not burst out laughing at the sight of his parent’s faces. His mother looked like she had seen a ghost, her jaw hanging open in her pale white face. His father, on the other hand, looked like he didn’t know whether to be proud or furious. But before he could take the joke further April took the chance to explain.

When the girl was done his parents both finally exhaled and even cracked smiles. They had gotten used to their younger son pulling stunts like this on them. [color=35996B]“Yeah… No, I’m still very gay.”[/color] Archer still grinned placing a hand on April’s bump gingerly. [color=35996B]“And this little miracle belongs to someone else.”[/color]. His mother laughed, shooting her husband a nervous glance, but he just let out a noise that was a mixture between a grunt and a laugh as he turned on his heel waving the teens off. A reaction about 10 times more positive than Archer had expected. 

[color=369951]“Well, in any case, you two have a lovely night! And Archie you behave around her fragile state! It was very nice meeting you April.”[/color] she tried putting on her stern face for her son before smiling genuinely at April.

Rolling his eyes he nodded at his mother [color=35996B]“You ready April?”[/color] he asked as he opened the front door wider for her to step out. 

April grinned as Archer’s ruse came to a close. It was quite entertaining to see his parents in such a state, especially knowing that Archer didn’t exactly swing her way. Admittedly, there was a tiny bit of regret in her mind for speaking up, but she shook the thought away and just smiled in return. [color=ec008c] “Yes, little Camilla here does not belong to Archer, you don’t need to worry at all.” [/color] she smiled nervously once again, before nodding her head to affirm her words.

As Archer’s father walked away, April nodded to his mother before replying [color=ec008c] “And it was lovely meeting you as well.”[/color] She then looked to Archer with a nod as he spoke. [color=ec008c]“Unfortunately due to [i]certain circumstances[/i] I will not be the one driving us to this evenings get together….we’ll have to endure my dad for the ride. I apologize in advance.”[/color] she giggled, before making her way out the door and taking Archer’s hand in the process. She lead him out to the driveway before giving a small wave to her father, before opening the rear door for Archer.

[color=ec008c] “Dad, this is Archer. He’s a friend from school and my partner for this evening.”[/color] she announced in a faux high-class voice, before making her way around the BMW to the other rear door. [color=ec008c] “Try not to be [i]too[/i] embarassing, [i]please[/i].”[/color]

[color=35996B]“We’ve met once actually… I’m the one with the busted car that makes your daughter want to puke! But it’s really nice seeing you again Mr. Foster.”[/color] Archer grinned as he stepped into the fancy vehicle. He always got nervous riding in these fancy cars, it was so different from his own car and he didn’t want to mess things up.

[b]“Good to see you as well, Archer. And I’m suuuure it doesn’t want to make April puke, she’s got a baby for that.”[/b] he laughed before glancing back to the pair [b]“Shall we then?”[/b]

[color=ec008c]“We shall!”[/color] April announced, looking to Archer with a smile.

[color=35996B]“You look very pretty tonight by the way.”[/color] he smiled as he turned to buckle his seatbelt. 

[color=ec008c] “And you look absolutely dashing yourself, good sir.”[/color] she replied without missing a beat, her faux high-class voice returning before she lost it in a fit of giggles. [color=ec008c]“Speaking of that car, you still need to bring that over to my place one of these days so I can get it fixed up. Maybe after this mess is over tonight, we can figure something out yeah?”[/color]

[color=35996B]“Oh for sure… after this mess…”[/color] he said tapping on his thighs trying his very best not to stare down at April’s baby bump. The car ride was surprisingly pleasant after Archer’s initial awkwardness. After a while, he warmed up to the presence of April’s dad who turned out to be a very chill dude, contrasting to his own father.

The ride over was more entertaining than April could’ve imagined. Archer and her dad had hit it off better than she had ever expected, and it all made for a good start to a night that was otherwise--as said before--a total clusterfuck. By the time they had arrived, April’s cheeks were already a bit sore from the smile that hadn’t left her face since they’d departed.

When the car stopped in front of the country club Archer helped his date out of the car and bid farewell to the driver [color=35996B]“Thanks for the ride, I promise to keep her out of trouble!”[/color] he said with a cheeky wink through Mr. Foster’s open window.

[color=ec008c] “Bye dad! I’ll see you in a bit!”[/color] April waved to her father before taking Archer’s hand and exiting the vehicle. She took in a deep breath before looking to Archer [color=ec008c]“Well, my expectations aren’t the highest for tonight, but I guess it doesn’t hurt to hope does it? I would like to say that I’m glad we decided to go to this together--that you asked me to. Apart from Santiago, I’m not sure there’s anyone else I’d rather go to this with.”[/color]

Archer stuck out his arm for April to grab and they entered the dance together. A look of surprise shone from the tall teen as he looked around the room. [color=35996B]“Wow… the dance committee didn’t go the cheesy route this year, bold choice”[/color] He grinned as he steered April towards the refreshments. He eyed the punch fountain and the different punch bowls strewn about. Trying to pick the one that wasn’t spiked was like playing Russian roulette, and that was nothing you should play with a pregnant girl.

[color=35996B]“I think our safest bet is something that is sealed…”[/color] he said jokingly grabbing two bottled water from a pile chilling in crushed ice.[color=35996B] “You want to go sit?”[/color] he asked pointing towards one of the big round tables decorated with red and white flowers and heart confetti.

[color=ec008c]“Definitely.”[/color] April smiled, nodding before following Archer to a table and cracking open her water.

Once the pair had settled down Archer couldn’t help but look around in the crowd to see if his boyfriend had arrived yet. He could see that the dancefloor was already in full swing where Kavi and thespian queen Chrissie were sharing a dance moment. And since Kavan was with Ariel, Archer hoped that his boyfriend could maybe keep Ariel from breaking another nose. In his search, he spotted the most peculiar scene. Was that Marisol… with her leg wrapped around Ryland? 

[color=35996B][i]No… No, don’t get yourself into that mess, Archie… don’t[/i][/color] he had to remind himself as he tore his face away from the disaster that was inevitably happening in front of him. Instead, he refocused on April. [color=35996B]“Uhm so how are you doing… uh… considering?”[/color] he asked rather bluntly. [color=35996B]“I mean… How long… uh. Will she pop out before we graduate?”[/color] he plastered on a smile while running a hand through his hair.

[color=ec008c]“Some days are harder than others, but overall I think I’m doing alright. Santiago’s changed so much since this all started and it's all just happening so nicely. From [i]after[/i] the Halloween party of course. And yes, I do think little Camilla will be attending our graduation, meaning I will get to walk across that stage with a super normal, not out of the ordinary belly.”[/color]

[color=35996B]“Anyway, who did the devil end up taking to this shindig?”[/color] he asked, taking a swig from his water bottle.

[color=ec008c]“Now that is a good question...I think it may have been Stella? I’m sure we’ll find out here in a moment.”[/color]
