My Light Within Her Dark [T. Drake]

~7~

Why do I feel so nervous?

OMG IS THIS A DATE? DID TIM JUST ASK ME ON A DATE???!!!

Selena ran to class and sat with Leanne and Rianne at their computer desks.

"I have something to tell you." Selena told them. "Woah woah, first off how much Green Tea did you drink this morning?" Rianne asks.

"Forget the Green Tea for 10 seconds and listen... Tim just asked me if I wanted to go to Gotham's annual Ice Dance." Selena explained, as she whispered so they wouldn't get caught.

Rianne was excited but Leanne was clueless. "OMG, what.. what did you say?" Rianne whispers excited.

"Wait wait back up, what's an Ice Dance?" Leanne whispers to them.
"Girl I got to get you in the loop. Gotham's annual Ice Dance commemorates the Winter Solstice. It only happens every 5 years, so Gotham pretty much makes a big deal about it." Rianne explained.

"Oh... OH!!! TIM JUST ASKED YOU ON A DATE!!!!" Leanne whisper shouts to her.

"Calm down before we get yelled out. Yes he did, he did it just before class started. IDK what to do? Do I treat it as a date, but since we're friends... well I did ask if it was ok to meet him in there since I'm already going with my uncle." Selena replies.

"Wait, you don't want to ride with him? Girl he offered to pick you up, what is wrong with you?" Rianne asks.

"I have my reasons." Selena answers with a masterminded plan plastered within her smile.

"You've got you *I have a plan to knock his socks off* face. What you got girl?" Leanne says intrigued. 

"I already have my dress but I need help with makeup and hair. Would you girls love to help? Plus it gives you an excuse to come to work but spend time with me?!" Selena replied.

"We're in!" Rianne and Leanne say in sync.

Selena did her best to not reveal anything to Tim because he kept asking what color her dress was but she wanted it to be a surprise.

At the end of the day, Selena, Rianne and Leanne where walking to their ride to Karsen Industries. Before Selena got in, she texted Dick.

S: Hey, Dick. I need a favor.

D. Grayson: What's up, Selena? 

S: For the Ice Dance, I need you to make sure Tim wears a red tie. Doesn't matter what shade as long as it's red. Please!!!!  

D. Grayson: Woah, ok. He asked you didn't he. Damien owes me $10, YES! I'll make sure he wears the right tie, hope you both have fun at the Dance.

S: Wait, aren't you coming? 

D. Grayson: Oh yes, all three of his brothers will be there, to watch. LOL 

S: You should be nice to your brother, but thanks Dick I owe you.

End of messages

Selena and the twins made it too her office and had Cissy hold her calls unless it was urgent.

"Ok, girls, what do you got?" Selena asks sitting on the couch as the girls had control of her TV and computer screens.

"Ok, so what about this?" Leanne asks. Selena saw the screen reveal a slideshow of pics.

"Nah, her hair isn't long enough for that kind of braid, next." Rianne replies.
