Road Trip! The Final Frontier.

Where the heck have I been!

^ Eric and Jess didn't get forgotten. Neither did Ryan.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hummerhome, next morning

Lora: *runs over* How was your DATE!

Katie: *drinks coffee*

Carly: Yeah tell us how it went. You're still alive so that's a good thing, right?

Anni: WAS HE GRABBY? DID HE INSULT YOUR SHOES? WHAT DAY IS IT! OH MY GOD! *falls over*

Katie: The date was fine.

Anni: Oh. Good. *sits up*

Speed: *opens cupboard* Except for Lora jumping in at the wrong time.

Lora: Hey you're the one that wanted to give the wallet back.

Speed: You're the one who stole it in the first place.

Horatio: *walks out of bedroom*

Everyone: *stares at Horatio*

Horatio: ...I have to pee. *walks into bathroom*

Heather: You go girl! *raises fist*

Ryan: I haven't been on a date in forever. What's it like?

Lilly: *smacks Ryan*

Ryan: OW! You have nails.

Lilly: We're gonna go on a date and you're gonna buy me something expensive.

Ryan: But I don't have any money.

Lilly: *frowns*

Ryan: ...Wrong thing to say?

Delko: *wraps arm around Jess*

Jess: *smiles*

Ryan: See! They don't hit each other!

Lilly: *smacks Ryan*

Ryan: OW!

Anni: So was this Dixon guy nice?

Katie: Yes he was very nice.

Anni: Like, NICE nice or just nice.

Katie: *lifts brow* I don't know what that means.

Anni: He wasn't all like a man, right?

Katie: *squints* Are you okay?

Anni: I think so. *looks around* Why, do I not seem okay?

Carly: So he didn't try to make any moves.

Katie: No. He was a complete gentleman.

Carly: Are you going to see him again?

Katie: *shrugs*

Carly: Oh come on.

Katie: He was okay. It's not like there were extreme fireworks, okay?

Anni: Katie this is the first guy who hasn't tried to grab you or make a move.

Katie: Uh, no.

Anni: Well the first one recently. And you aren't going to see him again?

Katie: I didn't say that. Besides, I can't just stick to one guy, right? I have to browse on a whole bunch of possibles.

Speed: You aren't car shopping.

Katie: No kidding. Cars get better mileage.

Anni: Yeah. *elbows Katie* Tim here ain't no Cadillac.

Speed: *frowns*

Katie: Really?

Anni: Yeah.

Katie: Maybe you're not doing something right because with me he w-

Speed: You know I think we should talk about something else now.

Calleigh: *walks over* Horatio's taking us to a basket weaving class. He found one in Kansas.

Lora: DAMN I thought we bypassed all of that.

Calleigh: Apparently not.

Lora: Are you sure he's feeling okay? Because basket weaving doesn't seem like his thing. Kicking ass does. OH CAN WE GO SEE SOME WWF?

Calleigh: I don't want to watch a bunch of fat sweaty guys beating each other up.

Anni: What planet do you live on? *slaps Calleigh*

Calleigh: Ow. *rubs arm*

Katie: What are we supposed to do with a bunch of baskets?

Anni: OH! PUT CANDY IN THEM! PUT CANDY IN THEM!

Katie: What if I don't like candy?

Anni: Then you suck. I want to go basket weaving now.

Delko: Wait, you're going to put me in a room with glue and scissors? Don't you think that's a little risky?

Jess: *laughs* I think you'll be fine.

Delko: Good because I don't want to glue my head to anything again.

Horatio: *walks out of bathroom* BEHOLD!

Everyone: *looks at Horatio*

Horatio: *flips cape*

Everyone: *blinks*

Lora: ARE YOU WEARING MAKEUP? Oh my God he thinks he's a woman. First basket weaving, now foundation.

Horatio: It's the perfect thing to cover up all of the sunburns. Besides, at least I look like I have a skin tone now.

Speed: You look a little orange.

Horatio: No it's just the hair.

Speed: No your skin is orange. And it's kind of blotchy. Are you sure you aren't allergic to it?

Horatio: *touches face* What?

Speed: It's turning kind of a pale shade of green now.

Horatio: WHAT? *runs into bathroom screaming*

Calleigh: He didn't look green.

Speed: Yeah but that was fun.

Anni: *slaps Speed* Don't play with a man's emotions like that.

Lora: HE'S NOT A WOMAN! HE'S HORATIO CAINE, HE HAS NO EMOTIONS! *starts to cry* Sorry, I'm just getting a little emotional.

Colton: I thought you were acting exactly like yourself.

Anni: *tugs Katie's shirt* So this Dixon guy, you aren't going to see again? Can I have his number?

Speed: *sits* I thought you were already married.

Anni: ...I am. I can have guy friends too. He seemed cool.

Katie: Anni, you're not getting his phone number.

Anni: Damn.

Katie: Be happy you're not dying alone.

Anni: Um, have you seen my husband? He gets shot turning corners.

Speed: I haven't been shot lately.

Anni: Fine. But you'll die. It's in the cards.

Katie: You should appreciate the time you have with him then.

Anni: I can't, I'm always a bubbly wreck.

Katie: Better than being alone.

Anni: Are you defending him?

Katie: Why are you bashing him?

Anni: I was doing so in a joking manner.

Katie: It didn't seem like it.

Anni: Hey back off, you have your gentleman. I'll keep my drunkard.

Speed: I'm not a drunkard.

Anni: Well whatever.

TBC...................

 

:lol: That's an awesome story. Hehe, see, you can't just not make fun of H. But at TalkCSI we do so in such a loving way, heh.

Anni's a recovering alcoholic/pornatic? No no no, this will not do. The insanity canceled it out and made her awesometastic. Now she's spent for a loop. So we'll have fix that.

And do I hear Horatio bring drunk in the near future? Oh yes I do. I can hear it as if it's playing in my mind right now. Bwaha.

...Sleeping meds are throwing me for a zonk they is.

So I shall have a chapter up tomorrow!

Thanks for the reviews!

 

^ Yes I do always make up that many words. My family tends to get very tired of it, so I let it seep out online. So sorry about it.

And sleeping meds are still doing their thing so I'm not liable for any injuries or distress caused by this next chapter. :lol:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kansas--Hummerhome

Calleigh: *places tv dinners inside microwave*

Colton: Dude, come on I'm not eating that again.

Calleigh: It's in the budjet so you have to eat it. Don't waste.

Colton: *mimics* Don't waaaaste.

Calleigh: I mean it. If these get thrown away, I'm going to throw YOU away.

Colton: Great because the last time the garbage people found me inside their truck, they told me to 'chill out'.

Calleigh: How did you end up in a garbage truck?

Colton: Mom didn't want me. Thought I was going to end up with a bad crowd.

Lora: Well you sure picked the wrong crowd huh.

Colton: At least you guys don't murder people too often.

Lora: We try not to.

Heather: Hey has anyone seen Horatio lately? He was supposed to give us our daily "don't talk to strangers, hold hands when crossing the street and no monkey business in the Hummerhome" like an hour ago.

Lora: Maybe he got tired of giving the speech. You guys can take care of yourselves.

Delko: But basketweaving's tomorrow and he was so excited about it. I think we should at least look for him.

Lora: Okay we'll go in teams.

Delko: No no no. You'll mess it up.

Lora: I don't mess anything up. You're not on my team.

Katie: Why do we need a team to find one guy?

Delko: Because we're bad at our jobs.

Katie: I see. So can I be on your team?

Delko: Sure.

Lora: Yeah, great, steal the one smart person away from my team.

Heather: Hey! I consider myself on your team and I consider myself rather smart.

Lora: Newsflash hun. You aren't.

Heather: *frowns*

Lilly: I call being on Lora's team! She sounds fun. *grabs Ryan* You're on the team too.

Lora: Well I would have liked an all-female team but whatever. Ryan counts enough as a girl.

Delko: So you get them and we're stuck with Jess?

Jess: HEY. *slaps Eric*

Delko: OW.

Jess: I pick Anni on my team.

Anni: YES!

Katie: No, I don't want her on our team.

Delko: Too bad.

Ryan: I have a simpler solution. We've been parked outside this bar all day. Why don't we just go so inside if he's there.

Lora: And if he's not?

Ryan: There won't be many places a sunburned red-headed senior would go.

Lora: HE IS NOT OLD. *slaps Ryan*

Ryan: OW!

Inside club

Katie: HORATIO CAINE! I'M LOOKING FOR A HORATIO CAINE! I don't think they can hear me over the music.

Lora: Either that or they're ignoring you.

Speed: Maybe we should just look before we start screaming at people.

Lora: Maybe you should keep your trap shut and just follow our lead like a good little soldier.

Calleigh: *grabs bouncer* Hey there. *smiles* I was lookin' for someone by the name of Horatio. I mean, we call him H but he'll look like a Horatio. Have you seen him around by chance?

Bouncer: No, but I'd like to get to know you better. *winks*

Calleigh: Ugh. You know, that never works on women so I don't know why men try. *walks away*

Horatio: *sitting at bar*

Speed: *walks over* They're looking for you.

Horatio: I know. *slams glass down*

Speed: *looks at Horatio* You drunk?

Horatio: You got a problem with that BUB?

Speed: *lifts brow* Bub? Uh *shakes head* No, I don't have a problem with it. You're just...never drunk.

Horatio: Sometimes being the leader of people who don't listen to you takes a toll. Y'know? I mean GUH. And it doesn't even got to do with makeup.

Speed: Uh, okay. Is there something going on? With you?

Horatio: You never want my help, why should I spill my buts to you?

Speed: It's um, guts.

Horatio: Whatever.

Speed: You seemed pretty edgy the past week.

Horatio: Yeah. *nods* Yeah I am. See 'cause it's like I dunno man. Like, yeah.

Speed: I definitely know what you mean.

Horatio: Lora.

Speed: *looks at H* What about her?

Horatio: She's the only one who cares if I'm sick. She, she even gave me cream for my burns. *whispers* Even for the ones down there. *points* And she didn't even laugh. I need a girl like that.

Speed: *squints* You need someone who can change your dressings without laughing?

Horatio: It's not just that. I've been alone for the past 50 some years and I always have to be nice to victims and even suspects. And the whole thing with Yelina, pshhh, don't even get me started on that. Like, it's whack.

Speed: *lifts brow*

Horatio: I just want a girl who cares about me period and isn't afraid to say it. I need someone to look out for me instead of it being the other way.

Speed: So you want to become needy to help satisfy the 'need' of someone else.

Horatio: The enigma that is my grey matter. I mean, you got girl issues too.

Speed: *tilts head* Well I wouldn't say it's of the same caliber as you and Lora. But I can tell you that that girl definitely is out for your well being. She's not playing you.

Horatio: You think?

Speed: Definitely. Besides, she's perfect for you. Overbearing, loud, obnoxious, slightly rude, it's your complete opposite with great legs.

Horatio: *smiles* She does have great legs.

Delko: *runs over* I FOUND HIM! I FOUND SPEED! Was Speed lost too?

Anni: No.

Delko: Damn. Well then FINE. *walks away*

Horatio: *slamming head on table*

Anni: What are you doing?

Horatio: Getting the Horatio out of my head.

Anni: Um, to do that you might want a whole bunch of plastic surgery.

Horatio: No no no. I have to change. Time is change. Change is time and it's time to change so that I can change.

Anni: *looks at Speed*

Speed: *shrugs*

Horatio: I gotta stop being so busy all the time. I have to stop worrying about other people and pay attention to myself. I have to start having more respect for myself and try to do something worthwhile.

Anni: Please tell me you aren't doing the same thing as Katie.

Horatio: Leaving? No. But I'm definitely going to take a look at my head and start backspacing.

Speed: I don't understand half of what you just said.

Horatio: Good. Because I don't understand why you're speaking so loudly.

Anni: We're not speaking loudly.

Horatio: Well the universe needs to tone it down.

Anni: *nods slowly*

Katie: *runs over* I need to talk to H.

Anni: Um, it looks like he's out of commission for a bit. Anything I can help you with?

Katie: I fell down when Lora pushed me getting out of the Hummerhome and I have a piece of glass in my side. I wanted to get H to take a look at it. *shrugs* I hate hospitals and he seems pretty professional.

Anni: I could take a look. I know my way around a med kit.

Katie: Um...is there a way for someone else to do it? *looks at Speed*

Speed: *looks at Katie*

Katie: Someone I trust.

Anni: *looks at Speed*

Speed: *staring at Katie* I could take a look at it.

Katie: Thanks. Meet me in the girls washroom. *walks away*

Anni: It's not about a cut, is it?

Speed: She wants to say something. It's better than cutting herself up for good. *walks away*

Anni: *grabs H* Okay, come on big guy, we have to get you back to the Hummerhome.

Outside

Horatio: ALL THE WORLD'S A STAGE!

Anni: Yeah it sure is.

Horatio: *grabs onto light pole* You know, I always wondered what it would be like to climb one of these things. *grabs onto light pole, jumps* YEEEHAAWW! *slips* ...Well that didn't turn out how I'd planned.

Anni: I can't believe I'm the most mature here, this is insane.

Horatio: You're insane. I always knew it. One time I wanted to get you into therapy but you decided to get married instead.

Anni: Oh yeah, real therapy. *grabs Horatio*

Horatio: I don't need your help. *swings arm away* AH *falls over* Are those headlights?

Anni: Er, yeah. Only they're cops so just try to act natural.

Horatio: *waves* HI COPS! HOW ARE YOU!

Anni: *covers eyes*

Cop: *gets out of car* Hey man, what's up.

Horatio: You are doing such a BANG UP job out here guys. Look! That prostitute over there is going for the bushes. It's a safe sidewalk now.

Cop: You noticed the hooker.

Horatio: Oh yeah. It's my job.

Cop: And uh, why is it your job?

Anni: *whispers* Shut up, shut up.

Horatio: *grinning* I make sure they don't get hurt. I'm a cop.

Cop: *nods slowly* I see. Well, we have a bunch of you back at the station if you want to talk to them.

Horatio: No no no. I'm just here with my friends on a road trip to see if we can hook up my friend with some guy she met online and after that, we were going to basketweaving but that was put off until tomorrow. *wipes forehead*

Cop: Is that...makeup?

Horatio: Oh yes. I got burned while I was asleep at a theme park at Bromley Mountain. It has WALLS full of water EVERYWHERE. But the sun found me anyway.

Cop: *grabs Horatio* Why don't you come and lean against this car over here.

Anni: He's just drunk. I'm trying to get him back to his room.

Cop: We should still check him out. *typing on computer*

Cop2: Sir do you have anything on you that will stick me or anything?

Horatio: God no. Unless you count the package of hand cream. The corners give serious papercuts.

Cop2: Uh huh.

Bathroom

Katie: *hops onto counter*

Speed: *walks in*

Katie: Thanks for comin' here.

Speed: What do you need?

Katie: *lifts shirt*

Speed: That's a nasty gash.

Katie: You don't think I'll need stitches, right?

Speed: Well I brought a med-kit from the Hummerhome, so we'll see. I need you to take off your shirt.

Katie: Why.

Speed: Because you fell on glass. It's either in you or not but I need to take a look. You said it yourself, you weren't going to a hospital.

Katie: Fine. *takes off shirt*

Speed: How hard did you fall?

Katie: It's Lora. How hard do you think I was pushed?

Speed: *nods*

Katie: *sigh* I've had enough crap going on as it is without being pushed by some behemoth.

Speed: I'm sure she didn't mean to hurt you. *puts on gloves, reaches into med-kit*

Katie: Yeah.

Speed: *touches Katie's side*

Katie: *squints*

Speed: Sorry. *grabs gauze*

Katie: You know, I bet 10 bucks Horatio's going to get arrested.

Speed: Why.

Katie: Someone always does.

Speed: *smirks* Part of being on the team, I guess.

Katie: Yeah. I must have belonged to this team way too long.

Speed: No such thing.

Katie: Right.

Speed: Okay, it's all cleaned up. You're good to go.

Katie: Thanks. *grabs shirt* How do you feel about Anni dissing you earlier? It kind of felt like she wanted the guy's number to ditch you or something.

Speed: Anni's Anni.

Katie: Yeah but still. She was a little mean. Besides, she tried to make things work and it does and there she goes with the petty insults. What's she trying to do?

Speed: I don't know. But a few petty insults just because she's being herself doesn't mean I love her less. She wasn't totally serious anyway.

Katie: And if she was?

Speed: Then she was. No big deal.

Katie: *laughs* You're fine with living with a woman who insults you in front of everyone, tries to get guys' numbers and doesn't even kiss you or anything?

Speed: Katie, it's personal. And it's not a big deal.

Katie: So you're not gettin' any in the sack.

Speed: We're not rabbits you know.

Katie: I mean generally.

Speed: *drops gloves ino garbage* Generally, no. So?

Katie: *sigh* People should still have a physical connection with each other once in a while.

Speed: We don't. There's just a lot of other things we both need to take care of and that's not the highest on the list, okay?

Katie: Alright.

TBC.........................

 

Bwaha, thanks so much for the reviews. Sorry I haven't posted another chapter lately. Have some personal issues that have come up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hummerhome, 10am

Horatio: *drinking coffee*

Delko: You okay H?

Horatio: Why is there a big red line in the middle of my forehead?

Anni: Oh, you ran into a light standard.

Horatio: *rubs head*

Anni: Apparently you and long metal objects don't match.

Horatio: Did I get arrested? I remember something about a police officer.

Anni: I managed to talk him out of it.

Horatio: How?

Anni: After he stopped laughing at me, he realized you're a real lieutenant.

Horatio: Oh.

Anni: I guess all of us has to let loose someday.

Lora: And I wasn't around to see it. Balderdash.

Colton: Balderdash?

Lora: Yeah. You got a problem with it persnikitee?

Colton: *lifts brow*

Jess: *points to catalogue* I WANT THAT!

Katie: Why are you looking at wedding dresses?

Jess: These aren't wedding dresses. These are ballroom dresses. We're going to the grand opening of the Kansas auditorium and there's a silent auction.

Lora: I'm not wearing a dress.

Lilly: OMG RYAN! Finally, something I can take you out in!

Ryan: A dress?

Lilly: Can I see the catalogue?

Jess: I'm not done.

Lilly: But it's just for a sec-

Jess: WAIT YOUR TURN BIATCH!

Lilly: *pulls hand away*

Jess: I want this dress.

Katie: It's 500 bucks.

Jess: So?

Delko: So my wallet isn't that fat.

Jess: I don't expect you to pay for it.

Delko: Yes you do.

Jess: ..You're right, I do. Oh how about this one!

Katie: Jess, you're in the wedding dress section.

Jess: Uh I want a style first. Hey isn't this the same type of dress you had on your wedding?

Katie: Which one.

Jess: ...The first one.

Katie: *tilts head* Huh, I don't know. I can't really r-

Speed: No. Yours had an open back.

Katie: *looks at Speed*

Speed: And it had two layers.

Katie: *frowns* You're not supposed to remember.

Jess: OH I LIKE THIS ONE!

Delko: That's kind of slutty.

Lora: I think that's the idea.

Jess: Hm, no I'll go for that later. *winks*

Delko: *wide-eyed*

Jess: This one's good. I like it.

Katie: It's kind of poofy.

Jess: The more poof the better.

9pm, Kansas auditorium

Horatio: *straightens bowtie* Alright gang, let's cover some ground rules before we head inside. Number one, it's an auction so under no circumstances are you to write anything down.

Delko: But how are we supposed to-

Horatio: You're not. We're heavy in debt as it is.

Jess: *runs over* WAIT FOR ME!

Katie: *turns around*

Carly: *lifts brow*

Heather: *covers mouth*

Lora: What the hell is attached to your hip? It looks like the big top.

Jess: What? *looks down* It's my dress.

Lora: Are there wires in there or something or is your ass actually that big?

Horatio: Lora.

Lora: What?

Jess: *extends leg* Like my new pretty shoes? *grinning*

Carly: Where's your leg?

Katie: *elbows Carly*

Carly: *snorts*

Jess: *grabs Eric's arm* Ready to go inside?

Delko: *smiles* Yeah, definitely. *leans over to Speed, whispers* How am I supposed to walk beside that?

Speed: *smirks*

Inside ballroom

Carly: Are we even on the invite list?

Katie: Who cares? There's free weiners.

Carly: I think they're called hors d'oeuvres.

Auction table

Colton: *yanking collar*

Heather: *looks over*

Colton: *scratching neck*

Heather: You got fleas or something?

Colton: I hate this suit. It's chaffing.

Heather: You don't wear those often, do ya.

Colton: How could you tell. You going to bid anything?

Heather: Well Horatio told us not to but he doesn't control my pocket book. *scribbling things down* Come on, trip to Hawaii.

Colton: We could just take a road trip to Hawaii.

Heather: *lifts brow* Together?

Colton: ..No. With the team.

Heather: Oh yeah. Right. *laughs* Yeah.

Anni: *runs over* The guy over there playing the violin has this giant booger hanging out of his nose!

Heather: So what do you want us to do about it? Poke it?

Anni: Can we?

Heather: No.

Ryan: *walks over* I feel like James Bond. This is so cool.

Heather: Well you look nothin' like him.

Ryan: *face drops*

Colton: She's mean.

Anni: This dress is itchy.

Colton: I know what you mean.

Anni: Is there a bathroom or something around here? I need to put some wet napkins in my hose.

Colton: ...That was the weirdest sentence I've ever heard.

Anni: You try getting pantyhose off in a billion degrees. They stick like skin on a leather couch.

Auction table, few feet away

Jess: *bends over* Ack, I can't reach the table.

Delko: You need some help?

Jess: Yeah pass me that pen.

Delko: *hands over pen*

Jess: Okay now bend me over.

Delko: *smiles* I haven't been asked that in a while.

Jess: *rolls eyes*

Delko: Why don't you just wear something else?

Jess: Because it took me 2 hours to get into this dress and I'll be damned if I don't get to put it to some use.

Delko: It's kind of...big.

Jess: Yes, I'm aware of that. You know in olden days, the bigger the dress, the richer you were.

Delko: You got this off a bargain bin in K-Mart.

Jess: Shh no one's supposed to know.

Delko: *looks around*

Jess: *leans to table*

Delko: *checks watch*

Jess: *stands straight* You got somewhere to be or somethin'?

Delko: No, no it's just...this isn't exactly what I planned for an evening between us.

Jess: You had something planned?

Delko: Uh, no. But uh...

Jess: What?

Delko: H put everyone up in a hotel tonight so we don't have to take cabs back to the Hummerhome.

Jess: *smirks* Aaaand?

Delko: And we'll finally be alone but we're spending our time in an auditorium with a bunch of snooty aristocrats.

Jess: Well I'm going to wear this dress for at least as long as it took me to get into it so you can wait.

Delko: *clears throat* Fine.

Jess: God, you're so impatient. *writing things down* AHH! I'M FALLING!

Delko: *grabs Jess*

Jess: Huh...You know, I think if I had fallen, the dress would have bounced me back up.

Delko: *laughs*

Near orchestra

Katie: *eating*

Speed: *walks over* Have you seen Anni?

Katie: *drinks wine, holds up finger*

Speed: *looks around*

Katie: *sigh* What about Anni?

Speed: Have you seen her?

Katie: I think she went with Heather and Colton to the bathroom.

Speed: *lifts brow*

Katie: Don't ask. *smiles* So, you're lookin' pretty snazzy.

Speed: *nods*

Katie: By the way I uh, decided to call Dixon back.

Speed: Good.

Katie: I'm just...wondering if he's a little too nice.

Speed: How can someone be too nice?

Katie: I don't know, I guess I'm just used to mindless abuse.

Speed: *looks at Katie*

Katie: It's a joke.

Anni: *runs over* Okay I'm good. Got my wet naps in the hose, used the soap as deodorant and got Colton to pin my dress down around my ankles so I don't slip.

Speed: *stares at Anni*

Anni: What? *belches*

Katie: That's attractive.

Anni: Yeah well at least my boobs aren't hangin' out of my dress.

Katie: That's how this dress comes.

Anni: You're a little old for it.

Katie: I'm in great shape.

Anni: So am I.

Katie: You pinned your dress to your ankles.

Anni: Yeah. No one wants a clutz running around here.

Speed: You know what, I think I'm going to go sit outside for a while. *leaves*

Anni: What's his problem?

Katie: Go find out.

Anni: I will. *leaves*

Katie: *rolls eyes*

Auction table

Jess: Who puts a pair of drum sticks at an auction?

Delko: Maybe they're special.

Jess: You think if I stuck my shoes on the table, I'd get a good price?

Delko: Don't, Jess, come on.

Jess: *places shoes on table, grabs pen* These will be Judy Garland's ruby slippers.

Delko: But they aren't.

Jess: They are now.

Delko: That's illegal.

Jess: Since when have you been afraid of doing something illegal?

Delko: Since you just did something illegal. I'm pretty sure the attendants here will find out.

Jess: No they won't. There's all kinds of junk here. We'll just say they were last minute.

Delko: Can't we just leave?

Jess: No. I want the money back that I paid for this dress.

Delko: So return the dress.

Jess: *snort* You just don't understand.

Outside

Anni: *walks over* Hey, what's your problem?

Speed: Can't you act serious for ten minutes? This is a formal thing.

Anni: *smiles* C'mon, you fell in love with my wild and insanely free behaviour.

Speed: You're right.

Anni: But you want me to tone it down.

Speed: I want you to be yourself but...

Anni: Have a little restraint?

Speed: Yeah.

Anni: *smiling* No problem.

Speed: *smirks*

Anni: *kisses Speed's cheek* Okay, see you back inside! *runs off*

Speed: *frowns*
