CHAPTER 3 Save the last dance for me…

“What can’t you read?  No queers allowed.”

Ashley and Spencer rolled their eyes at Madison Duarte and her little clan of cronies.  Apparently Spencer had meant what she said about this being the best year ever and she decided that since it was their senior year that her and Ashley were going to become more involved in school-related activities.  So for starters they signed up to be on the homecoming committee.  Well actually Spencer signed them up and then threatened to withhold any kind of physical activity from Ashley until she participated.  Spencer Carlin knew her girl well.   So that’s how Ashley found herself being dragged to a homecoming committee meeting which wasted a perfectly good lunch period.  Spencer owed her big time.

“Get over it Madison…after all, Aiden and Glen sure did…”

Spencer snickered at Ashley’s remark as they took a seat in the classroom.  The ‘committee’ was made up of about eight of Madison’s cheerbreeder clones and a few student advisors.  Ashley could have thought of a million OTHER things she’d rather be doing at the moment.  Most of which included Spencer.  She shook her head…she couldn’t be thinking like that when she still had to sit through two more classes and actually pretend to care about this stupid dance.

“As I was saying before the sexually confused walked in.  What do you guys think our theme should be this year?”

“How about a western theme?  You know…like a HO down?”

Ashley smiled sweetly at Madison who shot daggers at her.  The breeders laughed a little but were quickly silenced by Madison’s evil looks.  She rolled her eyes and continued.

“So far our choices are an 80’s themed dance, Romeo and Juliet…wait we can’t do that…I don’t think the LGBT club would like it…and the last theme is midnight in paradise.  Any others?”

“How about ‘A night to remember?’”

Everyone looked at Spencer, including Ashley who was quite proud of her girl.  Madison glanced over at the others to see what they thought and from the looks on their faces they all liked the idea.  She couldn’t have that now could she.

“Okay fine.  As chair of this committee I say we just vote already.  Pick one theme and write it down.”
