I have to be daft. With only a week until the dance, I let Mom Greenman convince me to ask Rueben to the Halloween dance at Davis. Oi.
So, as soon as I told Annie I'd ask we decided to do it that night. This was Friday. Julianna thought of the idea, and we rushed to make it happen.
First stop, Annie's for a fish bowl. While she tried to find it, I looked up his address and googlemaps and Julianna wrote down the note while I memorized them. The note said "Of all the fish in the sea, I'd love it if You could go to the dance with me" Her handwriting is really cute!
Next, Bowmans. We got the Huge box of Goldfish crackers and rushed back to the car. I negotiated with Annie for my knife back and Julianna wrote my name on a few of the crackers and stuck them randomly through the fish bowl, now full of goldfish.
Then we were rushing to his house at about 11:00, hoping that his parents wouldn't hate me for doorbell ditching so late. No one answer the door while we hid, so we called.
It was his Mom
"Hi, umm.. sorry for calling so late, but I was wondering whether you were going to be awake for the next 10 mintues."
"NO"
"..5minutes?..."
*click*
We rang the doorbell one more time and then left.
On the way home...
*ring* This time it was his Dad
"So.... what's with the late night phone calls?"
"Sorry! We had to deliver something and it Had to be tonight, and we Really tried to hurry! Did you open your front door?"
"...No"
"Oh, well we left it there.."
"uh.. ok"
*click*
I REALLY hope his parent don't hate me. I've met his Dad before, when he came up to camp, and Josh says his Mom is Really cool, so I Think I'm ok..
Oi, I feel like crap.
