Party 111 Howard - Part 4

 Party at 111 Howard – Part 4

Andrea sneaked out of her house, as she usually did. She then headed towards Howard Drive... She hoped to have some kind of fun.

 

 

Back at the Blum-Deckler's, Tiffany had finally chosen something that she thought was close enough to perfect. “Six Fourty,” Sandi said, once her friend had dressed.

 

“We can get there just after seven,” Quinn said.

 

“That's a good time,” Sandi said.

 

“Perfect,” Tiffany responded.

 

 

Angie arrived at the house in Howard Drive. 'Gosh! This place needs work!' she thought as she walked up the path. She knocked on the door. Brittany answered it. “Hi, Brittany.”

 

“Angie. You haven't seen Kevin, have you? He's supposed to be here by now.”

 

“I haven't,” Angie admitted.

 

“I hope he hasn't forgotten!” Brittany exclaimed.

 

“He could have,” Angie said.

 

“Come, I'll introduce you to the hostess,” Brittany said.

 

Angie nodded.

 

 

“Jane?”

 

Jane turned at Brittany's voice. “Yes?”

 

“This is Angie.”

 

“I have seen her around,” Jane said. “How did you find out?”

 

“I think it was Nikki,” Angie said. “She's coming too.”

 

“Another cheerleader,” Jane considered. “So, who told her?”

 

“I don't know,” Angie admitted.

 

 

Daria answered the door again. She had seen Angie arrive, and hoped there wouldn't be too many others. “Hello?” she said as she opened the door.

 

“Is this the house with the party?” Andrea asked.

 

“I haven't heard of other parties in the street,” Daria answered. “But it hasn't really started yet, if you're thinking of gate crashing.”

 

Andrea chuckled. “Oh! I can wait, hang around upstairs...”

 

“Just don't take anything, or mess any rooms more than they already are.”

 

“Of course not,” Andrea said as she entered. “By the way, I passed several other fellow students down the street. They were taking their time.”

 

“I'll warn Jane,” Daria said. She watched Andrea go up the stairs before heading out to be backyard.

 

 

Daria found Jane talking to Jodie and Brittany near the Gazebo. “Andrea is here,” she said to Jane.

 

“And who else?” Jane asked.

 

“She said she passed several more who were on their way!”

 

“I'm sure we can handle it,” Jane said.

 

“It's going to spiral out of control!” Daria groused.

 

“I hope not,” Jane considered.

 

“Don't worry, Daria,” Brittany said cheerfully.

 

“There's plenty to worry about,” Daria groused.

 

“I'll make sure it won't get out of control,” Brittany said encouraging.

 

“That doesn't inspire me with confidence.”

 

“I've learned from experience,” Brittany responded in a lower tone.

 

'I guess so,' Daria thought.

 

 

Meanwhile, Angie was talking to Max Tyler, one of the other Mystik Spiral members.

 

“...Criminale?” Angie asked.

 

“We go all out, man!”

 

“Really?” Angie asked in a dubious tone.

 

“We do. We're, like on the edge!”

 

“I'll see,” Angie said.

 

 

The Fashion Club had left Tiffany's house. “So, where in the street is this party?” Stacy asked.

 

“111,” Sandi answered.

 

'Why does that sound familiar?' Quinn wondered.

 

“Right,” Stacy said.

 

“We should be there on time,” Sandi said.

 

“Sorry that it took time,” Tiffany said.

 

“Don't mention it,” Sandi said.

 

 

Mack answered the door and saw a few of his team mates. “Joey, Jeffy and John?” he asked.

 

“It's Jamie!”

 

“Sorry, Jamie,” Mack said. “You can come in.”

 

“Is Quinn Morgendorffer here?” Joey asked as he came in.

 

“She isn't, but Daria is.”

 

“Daria? Really?” Jeffy asked.

 

“Yes,” Mack said. “It seems she's the only one who was actually invited.”

 

“Oh, it's Jane's place!” Joey realised.

 

“You didn't know before?” Mack asked.

 

“I haven't been here in years!” Joey said.

 

“Cool,” Jamie said.

 

“Then maybe you can show us the way to the kitchen,” Jeffy said.

 

“Sure,” Joey said.

 

Mack looked at Jeffy.

 

“What? I'm hungry.”

 

 

Andrea was looking through the rooms, wondering which was which. She opened a door, and looked in. She smiled. She had found Jane's room, it being the only one with an easal. She slipped into the room.

 

 

Brittany slipped into the kitchen and saw the Three J's there. “Hi, Joey, Jeffy, James,” she said.

 

“It's Jamie!”

 

“Sorry,” Brittany said. “Jane sent me to start bringing stuff out into the yard.”

 

“It's out in the yard?” Jeffy asked.

 

“Yes,” Brittany answered.

 

“Cool!” Jamie said.

 

“So, grab something!” Brittany directed, as she grabbed a bowl of chips. 'I hope Quinn won't arrive to distract them!'

 

“Of course,” Joey said as she grabbed a couple of soda bottles.
