Dealing with the Opposite Sex, Friday, Period 2, Class #5

[spacepiratevala.livejournal.com]

Vala might have been looking more mischevious than usual today. "Today, you'll be dealing with awkwardness. Not because you're dating someone, but because you're dating someone and you remembered you weren't dead."

"So," she grinned, "I want you to pair up. You've done something with another person that is not the person you're dating. The first person--your significant (or insignificant) other--asks you an innocent question that relates tangentially to the event. Do you lie to cover it up? Pretend it never happened? Tell the truth and hope for the best?"

"Interesting choice to go with the third one, by the way. It's not what I would necessarily recommend, but everyone has their own techniques.'

Jo shook her head. "Not recently."

"Oh." Troy frowned. "Well, when did you see it last?"

"It was on the plate," Jo said.

"Well, where was the plate?" Troy asked, looking around a bit. "I mean, was it in the kitchen? In the fridge? When was this, anyway?"

"Can't remember," Jo replied. "Wasn't that long ago, I don't think."

"Like, do you have any kind of tie frame? Last couple of hours, last day or so...?"

"Sometime today, yeah."

"Yeah?" Troy shrugged. "Oh, yeah, I saw you go into the kitchen earlier... come to think of it, that was the last time I remember seeing the pie myself..."

The wheels in his head were turning.

"Oh my God! You ate the last piece of pie!"

Jo drew herself up, the picture of offended dignity. "That is a baseless accusation against my good name."

Troy was not moved by the affected offense. "Oh, yeah? Then where'd the pie go? I didn't eat it, so it must have been you!"

"Maybe the pie elves took it, ever think of that?"

Troy pouted. "The pie elves. Right. You just don't want to admit that you finished off the pie. We could have shared it!"

"Hey, pie elves are a serious problem."
