After a few minutes, giving Lauren and Joe time to get clothes on, Joey drove the four of us back to my place so I could change clothes and freshen up a bit. When we got to the townhome I heard Lauren shreik in excitement.

"What is it?"

"WE'RE NEIGHBORS!!"

"Really?"

"Yea! I live just two places down with Jaimie!"

"That's awesome! We'll have to have a girls day soon! Uhh..You guys wanna come in while I change?"

"Yea."

We all walked into the apartment, and I ran to my room, when I opened the door I was shocked. It was clean. When I left for the date yesterday, I remember clothes everywhere. But now everything is in it's place. I also notice a note on my desk,

        I got bored. Don't get used to it.

                                                -Court.

Well that was surprising. I went on a mini hunt in my closet, until finally I settled on a pair of light denim capris, and one of my handy dandy IUPUI shirts, grey with the maroon and gold letters, and grey chucks. It was on the chillier side in May, so I also brought a long a light jacket. I grabbed a spare charged battery, my always ready purse, and headed out to meet everyone when I saw only Lauren eating popcorn and watching my SNL Best of Gilda Radnor DVD.

"Where are the guys?"

"They left to get Brian and Mere. Brian actually works tomorrow, not today, so they're bringing them here until we figure out what to do."

"Wait, what? Here?"

I looked at the clock and realized it was 12, in about 4 hours my roommates would be back. This was a decent sized townhouse though, so I figured,

"Let's just stay in? We can get to know eachother more than Joey's other friend, my roommates get back at 4 from interviews, and we can have a cookout? We'll get some groceries, beer, start cooking now, and by the time they get home, we'll be ready to eat?"

"Sounds good! Let me finish this skit, and we can head out."

"Of course, I'll text Joey and let him know."

--- Hey, me and Lo decided on a cookout. Tonight. We're going shopping for some food and beer, and we'll start cooking when we get home. Roomies get back at 4, so we'll all eat then. Sound good?---

"You ready?"

"After you." I followed her out the door, and locked up, "Should I leave them a key?" As soon as I asked, I got a text from Joey.

--- Sounds good. We'll be there in 5 minutes, don't leave yet! ---

"Nevermind." I said, putting my phone in my purse.

"So tell me about yourself. All I know about you is that you shop at Victoria's Secret, and have great taste in female comedians. And you are quite fond of our Joey." She laughed.

"Well, I'm 24, I live here with 3 other people, Jake, Courtney and Peter. We all went to high school together. Met around my Junior/Senior year. We were in choir and ATA together, Umm," I went on, "We write plays and musicals together, and-"

"ATA?"

"Advanced Theatre Arts. A class at our high school."

"Gotcha, and you write your own shows? That's pretty cool!"

"Ha, Yea, actually Joey said the same thing when I told him."

"So do we! I'm sure Joey has told you about Starkid?"
