A Rebel Princess

Chapter Sixteen: Dance Like Nobody's Watching

Felicity walked into the school kitchens with Shayne and Lucy and grabbed an apron from the hooks beside the entrance. They had decided to make some food for movie night during their study period when they were free to roam campus. The cooks were on break, which meant that the kitchens were relatively empty and they were able to do what they came to do.

"Did you bring it?"Lis asked Shayne as she tied her hair up and washed her hands.

Shayne nodded and pulled out a leatherbound book, handing it to Felicity. "My mom has her recipes aren't exactly in order so you might need to sift through them."

"Perfect!"Felicity started going through the book while Shayne and Lucy got their aprons on and their hands washed as well. "I think the apple turnovers would be good." She took a picture of the recipe with her phone before going back to flipping through the pages.

"What about some sliders and sandwiches?"Lucy suggested. "Not everything needs to be sugary."

The other two agreed. "And then maybe some blondies?"

"Good,"Lucy smiled. "Then we can just pop some popcorn and get some drinks from the fridge."

"Alright, then I guess we're set. Lucy, you can start on those sliders and sandwiches while Felicity and I take care of the desserts."

Felicity began pulling ingredients off the shelves and preheating the oven. She honestly could barely cook, it was never really her forte. But with a set list of instructions and some motivation, she could pull it off. "Can we put on some music?"

"Radio is next to the flour,"Lucy pointed over to one of the shelves.

Lis went over and turned the dial in the hopes of finding a decent channel. They were going to be there for a while, might as well have some fun with it. Finally, Felicity found the perfect song to get her mood skyrocketing.

You got two black eyes from loving too hard

And a black car that matches your blackest soul

I wouldn't change ya, oh

Wouldn't ever try to make you leave, no

Lucy and Shayne gave each other a knowing look as Felicity grabbed a wooden spoon out of the drawer, holding it to her mouth.

Oh, the neon coast was your sign

And the Midwest wind with Pisces rising

I wouldn't change ya, oh

Wouldn't ever try to make you leave, no

Static palms melt your vibe

Midnight whisperings

The pair laughed as Felicity started jumping and dancing around the kitchen in an unexplainable surge of energy.

The black magic of Mulholland Drive

Swimming pools under desert skies

Drinking white wine in the blushing light

Just another LA Devotee

Sunsets on the evil eye

Invisible to the Hollywood shrine

Always on the hunt for a little more time

Just another LA Devotee

"Felicity!"Lucy squealed as her friend twirled her around. "You're insane."

"I'm just in a good mood,"Lis reasoned with a bright smile spread across her features. "C'mon!"

Soon enough Lucy and Shayne had given up trying to convince her to get on task and instead joined her in bouncing about the kitchen with various utensils as microphones.
