Starkid One Shots

Richpez- Wardrobe Switch

"Honey! You look so grown up!" Lauren beamed with pride as she entered her ten-year-old daughter's room.

"Thanks Mom," Johanna blushed, "I just want to look grown up so people will stop treating me like a child."

The older brunette raised an eyebrow, "Is that 'someone' your dad?"

Johanna nodded, "Oh god, Dad can be so annoying! He treats me like I'm still five!"

"Because you'll always be his little girl," Lauren explained and looked carefully at her daughter's outfit, "Is that my dress, my boots and my necklace?"

The younger girl stammered, "Ummm, sort of?"

"What about your own clothes?"

"They're all childish!" she protested, and took a closer look at her mother's outfit in return, "Are those my boots?"

Lauren looked down at the sparkly pink boots she has on and bit her lip, "Yes...?"

"How can you fit into my shoes?!"

"If you can fit into mine, I can probably fit into yours," she tried to reason.

Johanna sighed, "Mom, Dad bought me those three years ago!"

Lauren only shrugged, "They're comfy!"

"And is that my tights, my dress and my jacket?" 

Lauren looked down at her patterned dress that sort of resembled her doggy flower dress and complementing tights and jacket, "My doggy flower dress is still in the wash."

"How do you even fit into my clothes?"

Suddenly, Joey walked in with an undone tie in his hands, and his eyes widened in surprise as he saw Lauren and Johanna, "Whoa, which one's my wife and which one's my daughter?"

Both the girls glared at him, and Lauren spoke up, "Not funny."

"Your dad jokes are so bad," Johanna added.

"Now, why are you even here?"

"Can you please help me to do my tie?"

Lauren sighed and reached her hand out as Joey gave her his tie and she wrapped it around her own neck, focusing really hard to perfect the tie.

"Dad... is that a Hufflepuff tie?" Johanna pointed out.

"...Maybe?" 

She yelled out in frustration, "Does no one get how this is a red carpet event?"

"It's a viewing of Little White Lie Season 2...?" Lauren tried to explain as she took the tie off of herself and adjusted it around Joey's neck.

Joey concluded, "It's a Starkid event, no one is actually going to take the red carpet thing seriously, except maybe Brian Holden."

"Jeff is probably gonna show up in a shirt and a vest."

"Wanna bet?" he challenged his wife.

Lauren eyed him suspiciously, but took it, "Go ahead, what are we playing for?"

"Picking the kids up from school."

"And one week worth of laundry."

Joey took Lauren by the waist and pulled her close, "A kiss to seal the deal?"

"Deal," Lauren smiled warmly as she closed her eyes and wrapped her arm around his neck, kissing him passionately and Johanna just turned away, muttering, "Gross."

"Ew! Get a room!" came a small voice from the door. Lauren and Joey turned around, only to see their six-year-old son, Owen, standing there with a white shirt, white pants, and a white leather jacket and his crazy frizzy hair untamed, inherited from Lauren.

She chuckled, "Who taught you that?"

"Uncle Brian! He said whenever you two are gross and stuff I can yell 'get a room!'," Owen said, and he held up Joey's phone, "And Grandpa Bob is calling you, Daddy."

"Did Daddy dress you up as a 'little white lie'?" Lauren asked Owen.

Owen nodded enthusiastically, "He said Uncle Darren will find it funny."

Joey excused himself as he took the phone call, thanking Owen, and Lauren turned to her children, "You two are looking very smart."

"Thank you Mommy," Owen beamed, already impressed.

"Tonight's gonna be fun," Johanna smiled a little bit.

Lauren replied, "It sure will. And you'll have an interesting story to tell the class when you get back to school in September!"

"Guys!" Joey's voice sounded from the living room, "Let's go! Or else we're going to be late and we have to buy the popcorn for everyone!"

We can all dream about a produced Little White Lie Season 2, right?
