12| Surprises

In Mal&Evie's dorm room.
Chad is getting his suit tailored for the Royal cotillion by Evie.
Chad:"What about peacock feathers? Yeah, I bet you nobody's gonna have those at cotillion."
Evie:"Chad, when I look at you, all I can think about is..."king."
Chad gasped.
Evie:"And fake fur...uh-huh...fake fur says it all."
Doug:"Loud and clear."
Jay walks in and was leaning against the door,"Amphitheater in five!"
Chad:"Why did coach make him captain instead of me? I'm obviously better. "King Chad," though. I do rather like that. You know who else would like that?"
Evie:"Who?"
Chad:"Audrey."
Evie:"She would."
Jay:"Chad, let's go."
Chad:"I'm coming. Yeah. Oh."
Evie got Chad's cap before he walks off.
Doug&Evie:"Not a lot there there."
Evie:"Somebody obviously having some trouble dealing with his break up with Audrey."
Doug:"Yes." He was on his laptop."I've been doing the numbers."
Evie:"Yeah?"
Doug:"And after we collect from all the girls for their gowns and Chad's cape..."
Evie:"Wow! No wonder people work. What am I going to do with all this money?"
Doug:"I think in the next few years, you could buy that castle you always wanted. That way, you wouldn't need a prince."
Evie:"You're right, I don't. Because I have you."

I was at my locker, when Ben walked up,"Hi Gina."
Gina:"Hi."
Ben:"I have a little surprise for you."
Gina:"Baby, again? Wow. You give me gifts like everyday now."
Ben:"But I want to spoil my girl, because your perfect."
Gina:"That's me. I am perfect." I smiled.
Ben:"Come on, let me spoil you. You didn't have a lot growing up."
Gina:"Well, we've managed to get around."
Ben looked inside my locker,"Hey, I thought you donated your spell book to the museum?"
I grew confused,"I did? How did it get here?"
Ben:"You never know maybe somebody planted it there." He joked.
Gina:"I got to get to class."
Ben:"No. You come this way." His hands around my waist."First off...Ta-da!"
I see a red motorcycle,"What?!" I smiled.
Ben:"You like it?" He asked.
Gina:"Ben...does ogres like cheese puffs? This is amazing! and it's red." I poured,"But I didn't get you anything."
Ben:"You're taking me me on a picnic with all my favorite foods, remember?"
Gina:"No, that's Thursday."
Ben:"It is Thursday."
Gina:"No, it's not."
Ben:"Yes, it is."
Gina:"No, it's not."
Ben:"It is." He checks his watch.
Gina:"I knew that, the days are going by fast."
Ben:"I mean, if you don't have it, that's fine."
Gina:"No, no, no. I was just messing with you, baby. I knew it was Thursday. I just have to go do something, then I'm all yours."
Ben:"Well, what about class."
Gina:"She multitasks."
Ben:"She dabbles."
Gina:"She dabbles."
Ben:"You're the best!"
Gina:"That's me!"
When turned the corner, I got out my phone from my dress pocket and called a number,"Hi, I need your help."

In the Amphitheater. The guys were practicing.
Jay:"All right boys. Let's line it up. Carlos, you're with me. Let's go." They got in position.
Carlos:"Yeah."
Jay:"Assembler. Salute. Lower the point. Masks down. En garde. Keep your center!"
Carlos:"Whoa!"
Jay:"Eyes on your opponent! Up and over."
Then somebody jumped into the fencing fight.
Carlos:"Get him, Jay!"
Jay:"Practice."
Carlos:"Watch out, Jay!"
The person won the fight.
Chad:"Nice!"
Carlos:"Jay, what happened?"
Chad:"Finish him."
Then the person took off the mask.
Jane:"It's Lonnie!" She said from the balcony.
Jay:"Not bad."
Lonnie:"You should put me on the team."
Jay was about to say something but was cut off by Chad,"Hey, w-what?! No, no, no. We'll be a laughing stock of the league. A-And what's going to happen next? We'll have girls playing tourney? Come on, guys."
Jay:"So?"
Chad:"So? Uh, so, have you not read the rule book?" He took the book out of his pocket."Section 2, paragraph 3, 11-4. "A team will be comprised of a captain and eight men." Hmm? Why don't you read the rule book?"
Lonnie:"Okay, yeah, but you're down a man! I mean, since Ben has to leave to do all that king stuff."
Chad:"Exactly. We're down a man."
Lonnie:"Jay..."
Jay:"I'm sorry. Coach trusts me. I'm not gonna stay captain if I just throw out the rule book."
Lonnie:"If my mother thought that way, she would have lost the war." She walked away.
Chad:"Okay. Rule book. Rule book."
Jay:"All right, guys. Practice is over. Let's go."
The guys walked to the locker room and Carlos sees Jane.
Carlos:"Jane! Jane, hey. Hey."
Jane:"Hey Carlos, what's up?"
Carlos:"Uh...not much. You?"
Jane:"Way too much. We were gonna go with the blue and gold banners for Cotillion, but now we can't find the right shade of blue."
Carlos:"Oh, yeah, no, that's a-that's a bummer. Um, speaking of Cotillion-"
Jane:"I know, right? It's all anybody is talking about. Cotillion 24/7."
Carlos:"I-"
Jane:"It's like they've never been to one before."
Carlos:"Uh...I haven't, actually."
Jane:"Oh. Lucky. I always end up serving lunch with my mom anyway. This year, I got stuck on the decorating committee because Audrey went off to a spa vacation with Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather."
Carlos:"Jane, maybe we should just-"
Jane:"Skip the whole thing? I really, really wish I could. It's so nice to have a friend who's on the same wavelength."
Carlos:"Oh, you got me."
Jane:"I got to go. Great practice, though."
Carlos:"Yeah."
Jane:"See ya." On the phone."Hey mom."
Dude whines.
Carlos:"It wasn't the right time, all right?"
