After the movie, which was amazingly awesome, we go to a Chinese food restaurant called Sin Sin and sit at a table for six in the middle of the restaurant. I spot Oliver take his contact lenses out at the table, despite everyone's disgusted protests, and put his reading glasses on as he reads the menu. Who knew glasses could look so sexy on a boy?
I order a Coke with ice for my drink, and we decide to order appetizers- egg rolls, spring rolls, and dumplings with soy sauce and duck sauce- and we talk about the movie to pass the time before our drinks and appetizers come.
"So nobody told me how the costume party was last night," Faith says, eyeing Oliver and Anthony.
"You didn't go?" I ask.
"No," Faith says. "Sadly, I couldn't because I was grounded for buying a slutty costume." She rolls her eyes as she bites into a spring roll. "
She bought a Little Bo Peep costume from an online costume website," Oliver says. "You should've seen the costume when it came."
"I had enough money on my American Express card for it," Faith argues. "
What exactly were you trying to prove?" Oliver asks.
"Nothing really," Faith says, blushing a deep red.
"Faith is single," Aliza tells me, "but she desperately wants a boyfriend."
"I do not!" Faith says. "Well, not desperately, but I do want a boyfriend."
"Faith, you don't need a boyfriend," Oliver says. "You're fine being single."
"Easy for you to say," Faith says. "You're not a girl. You don't understand a girl's needs for love from a handsome boy."
"I'm over here," Anthony says, biting into a dumpling.
"I'm not looking for a boyfriend to throw up all over me when he gets too drunk," Faith says, giggling.
Anthony looks at Oliver, his eyes angry. "Lockwood, you asshole!" he exclaims.
"Relax," Oliver says. "I only told Faith. So only me, Faith, and Amanda know about your little accident since she was in the car when you told me about it."
"Don't forget us," T.J. says, "since Faith let the cat out of the box like the big mouth she is."
Faith throws an egg roll at T.J. who ducks.
"Hey, I'm paying good money for this food," Oliver says. "No throwing, or well get kicked out like last time."
"Last week when we came here," Aliza explains to me, "we had a huge fight with egg rolls, noodles, and wasabi."
"I got wasabi in my eyes," T.J. says, "and I had to wash them out with cold water."
"It was hilarious," Faith says, laughing at the memory.
Our food comes in one steaming, hot, delicious pile. I ordered ramen noodles with green broccoli and peppers and another Coke with ice, and I begin to chow down.
"So Amanda," Faith says to me, "are you free next Saturday?"
"Um, no," I say, thinking. "I don't have any plans. Why?"
"We're having Sci-fi movie Saturday next week," Faith says. "It's when we gather a bunch of Sci-fi movies and watch them back to back."
"We're also having a sleepover them," Aliza says. "And it's all at Oliver and Faith's house since it's the cleanest out of all our houses."
"Our parents are going to be out of town next week and won't be back until next Monday," Oliver explains. "So we're throwing a little get-together."
