The next week after waxing a woman's mustache I got a call from my best friend luna. "Yo, what are you doing tonight?"
"Hmm well, it's Friday so I have a date with some candles and a bubble bath."
"So not laughing Dee, your lack of Dee is sad."
"Wow, a dick joke, never heard that one before."
"I'm serious, I know you're a little miss 'i'm not partying again until I'm 21' but you need to come with me to this kickback tonight."
"The only thing I need is to have a cool raven animal sidekick, I think it would complete my whole look don't you?"
Luna laughed, "Is that a Damon Salvatore joke?"
"I was more going for Edgar Allen Poe but sure. Anyways, whose kickback is it?"
I heard a voice over the intercom paging doctor Gladstein to the front desk in the background of Luna's call. She was a nurse. "You remember Jorge from tech? Well, he's throwing it because one of his buddies just got back from university in the UK or something."
"Luna, you know Jorge still has a girlfriend right? You do remember what happened last time. And isn't it you who's always talking about how J names are trifling?"
"Bitch I'm tired of my battery-operated boyfriend, I need you to be my wing woman, please. Besides, Jorge and his girl are over. I heard it from Amber on Monday. And you know what that means, no strings attached rebound sex. What happened last time is not gonna happen again."
When we were in tech together Luna fell hard for Jorge. He had just broken up with his girlfriend and she got attached real quick and he broke her heart even quicker. They were together for three months before she found out he was still sleeping with his ex. It took me about a week to convince her not to slash his tires. And it took me the rest of the semester to get her to stop tearing up every time she saw him around the school.
"Fine I'll come but if you make one designated driver joke or call me Dee Dee I will bleach all your pretty lavender scrubs."
"Done deal, pick me up at 9."
