After dinner and dessert Tuesday evening, Lauren's parents asked her to join them on the porch, which she had gathered was some kind of typical family bonding attempt and was something she was just not down for. She mumbled something about having to do homework and excused herself to her room. She was sitting on her bednot studying the things she already learned at one point, contemplating how life here sucked when the phone rang.

Lauren was relieved to have a phone in her room, but the sudden noise had actually startled her. She rolled her eyes at herself and then answered the phone with a tentative, "Hello?"

Mercedes leaned back on the bed as she listened to the phone ring, and smiled slightly when a familiar voice answered the phone. "Lauren? It's Mercedes." She always had the habit of informing the person she was calling who she was, even when there happened to be caller ID. Just in case the person on the other end didn't check before picking up the phone. Now, in the days where there was no caller ID, she felt it even more important.

"Guess who had a date with a boy tonight?"

Lauren was happy to hear a familiar voice at the other end. She settled back into her bed.

"Alright, spill it, Jones."

Mercedes stretched out, and took a moment to smooth out any wrinkles she may have in her dress. "Well. We went to the diner for something to eat, and he totally paid for it." She smiled slightly as she thought about the date with Kurt. "Then we went for a walk, and he held my hand. The whole night was so very fifties by the way."

She bit her lower lip lightly, and ran her fingers through her hair. "He kissed me goodnight." She left out the fact that it was actually Mercedes who kissed Kurt (at least the first kiss. The good night kiss could have been Kurt kissing Mercedes, but that's just all technicalities.)
