Its Saturday now. Its about noon-ish. I run up to my mom.
"Hey mom, can I sleep over at a friends?"
"Is it one of those boys?" She asks.
"No its a girl, he name is.. Uh.. Jazmine."
"Oh of course I'll drip you off now."
"No that's ok, I'll just walk." I say running back up stairs and grabbing some things then I change my mind and decide not to bring anything. I run out of the house and pull my phone out and call Steve.
"Hello?" He answers.
"Its Tux." I say.
"Oh cool, so can you come over?"
"Yeah, I'm on my way now is that OK?"
"Of course, Darren won't be coming until later though."
"Oh well that's fine." I say walking towards his house.
"Who you talking to?" I hear in the background.
"My friend." Steve replies.
"Your mom home for once?" I ask.
"Yeah, I'll see you soon."
"Yep." I say hanging up continuing my walk to his house.
I knock on his door and a woman answers.
"Hello?" She asks.
"Hi, I'm Tux, I'm Steve's friend."
"Oh your pretty." She says pulling me up to her by my chin. "No wonder he likes you."
"Mom!" Steve yells coming down the stairs.
She let's go of me.
"Only joking." She says with a smile.
Steve's mom is nice but she doesn't like Steve a whole lot, Steve is a huge troublemaker after all.
"Come in." She tells me so I do. "Want something to eat?" She asks.
"No she doesn't." Steve says.
"No, I'm good." I say.
"No I insist tell me your favorite food I'll make it."
I laugh awkwardly.
"You sure?" I ask.
"Yes of course!" She says.
"Raw meat."
"Raw.. Meat..?" She asks. "Your joking right?"
"No, I'm not its my favorite."
"Your such a weirdo." Steve says. "She's fine, don't get her raw meat, we'll just go to my room." He says pulling me up.
I sit on his bed when we get up there.
"You weirdo, my mom thinks your crazy now."
"So, she didn't even notice my ears. If she did maybe she wouldn't think that."
"Whatever, let's watch a movie."
"Let's read comics instead."
"Yeah thats cool too, I got new ones."
"Awesome!"
We read comics for a while.
The door bell rang after awhile and we went down stairs to see Steve's mom talking to Darren.
"Oh hey Darren." I say.
"Wow, you're already here?" He asks me.
"Yep, I beat you."
