"That's what I'm saying right? I get all dolled up to come here, and they can't even offer me a good color.. it's terrible," the blonde replied dramatically, grinning as she pressed the back of her hand to her forehead in mock woe. "Seriously though, if I could have stapled this shirt to my shorts, I would. There is no way I'm flashing anyone tonight," she murmured.

Or so was the plan. She hadn't run into Quinn yet and Quinn did have that way about her-- no, she wasn't going to even think that. It was all about closure.

When Meka, seeming to read her mind, asked who she was here to see, Jenny shrugged a little and hoped her expression wasn't betraying too much. "I just have to talk to Quinn for a minute, that's actually.. why I came here at all."

Meka couldn't help but laugh. "Right?" she shook her head. "I would have joined you in the stapling campaign. I think it's a legitimate style choice for those of us who are less inclined to flashing everyone," she grinned.

"I don't even know why I bother to come to these things anymore," she admitted a bit ruefully. It wasn't as if she was going to see him there, he barely ever attended social functions. So sighed, reminding herself not to get sidetracked in her own head.

"Quinn? I didn't know you two hung out," she said taking a long drag on her cigarette. "It was nice of her to host the party."

Jenny blanched a little, letting out an awkward little laugh. It was true, they weren't the most predictable set of friends. But there was something about Quinn that drew her in. "We hang out," she said finally, shifting a bit where she sat. "Sort of."

She wanted to tell Meka what was up, but she wasn't sure what Sera had even told her yet. Meka knows was all she had been told, as vague as it was.

Meka noticed her friends color change and the awkward little laugh. Oh. OH. She wasn't entirely sure but she was kind of picking up that vibe. She grinned a silly little grin. "Kinda how you and Sera hang out?" she gave her a playful nudge.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to get too personal," her own face taking on a rosy hue. "You don't have to answer," she said quickly.

Jenny could have been mortified, but really, what was the big deal? She burst into a bit of laughter, cupping a hand over her mouth slightly and shaking her head. "Yeah," she replied, somewhat confidently, "A little bit like Sera and I hang out. Pretty much the same way but uhm, different. She's not into.. hanging out. Like, long-term. We didn't," she explained, trailing off. Outside of what she had told Sera about Quinn, she had never really talked about it. It felt nice not to keep secrets.

"It's not too personal, I guess you.. probably know most of whats going on then? With me and her? Sera, I mean."

She glanced back toward the house, and grabbing up her Jones, sipping at it. "I asked her to come tonight but she wanted to stay at school and do a project, what a shock. I'm gunna go over after I leave. If I don't get caught up," she murmured, before quickly adding. "Not like that. Caught up, like that. With Quinn. Isn't what I mean. Obviously."

Meka laughed along with her friend. "Sorry for the abruptness of my question," she said a little embarrassed by her own etiquette.

"I know that you and Sera got together at New Years," she smiled warmly at her friend. "I'm really happy for you guys," she said sweetly. "She's so cute about it," Meka laughed.

She couldn't help but laugh at Jenny's stumble. It was something she did all the time. "I know," she said throwing her arm around Jenny's shoulders and laughing. "I know what you mean," she said. "I kinda word fumble all the time," she grinned.

	Meka/Jenny

Jenny smiled, leaning into Meka's arm. "I know, Ella is like.. the could talk your face off for hours conversation sister, and I'm like, borderline tourettes sometimes. But I'm glad you know where I'm going with this," she admitted, laughing.

"I didn't specifically tell Sera who's party it was. Do you think she'll care? I mean, I did ask her to come.. and I'm actually here to kinda.. I dunno, find some kind of closure? It's like, hey, I'm actually with someone now. I know it sounds over-dramatic, but sometimes I didn't think that would happen again after Charlie."

She smiled, it was so easy to talk to some people but there were some people where it was like talking to a stop sign. "I was picking up what you were putting down," she laughed a little. "It's easy to talk to you," she admitted.

"I don't think she'll care. I think it's important to find closure with stuff like that," Meka nodded. She knew she would eventually have to do the same herself but that could wait for now. "I always figured you would find someone who was fantastic for you," she smiled warmly. "You're too awesome not to eventually find someone."

	Meka/Jenny

"She's pretty fantastic, isn't she?" Jenny agreed, cheeks flushing a little and a small grin crossing her lips. Her finger was tracing idly over the top of her Jones bottle, which was now held between her knees. "I was kind of a dick to her, though. I guess you probably know about the summer and stuff," she admitted, glancing away as she spoke.

"If I had just been honest from the start, things would probably be a lot easier now. She didn't even know I actually.. you know, liked girls. Until basically New Years. That was pretty shitty of me," she murmured.

"Sorry to vent on you on the fly, by the way. Just.. thinking a lot tonight."

	From: learntofly	Date: March 10th, 2011 07:25 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Meka/Jenny

"She is," she nodded. "She told me a little bit about the summer, that you kind of freaked out," Meka shrugged. "Hey, it's kind of a freaky thing when it's all new, you know?"

"You can vent all you want, it's what friends are for, right?"

"It feels like such a stupid thing to be freaked out about now," Jenny admitted, smiling slowly. "Even if I'm not exactly out, I.. well, I wanna be someday. I'm kind of coming to terms with it. I'm trying to keep my resolution to stop caring what everyone thinks," she murmured. "I originally meant about the snowflake ball, but now it's kind of an all encompassing resolution."

She paused, glancing seriously at Meka. "I did hear though, from a reliable source, that you might be gracing the cheerleading team in Sonnier sometime down the road.. ?"

	Meka/Jenny

"I don't think it's stupid at all," she said sweetly. "We are in the pinnacle of awkward years and still figuring things out," she grinned. "Take your time with it and when you're comfortable you let the world know."

Meka blanched a little and grinned widely. "I really want to," she said a bit shyly. "I think I will wait 'til next season maybe, I don't know," she grinned. "I just... I used to dance and I started again recently, I didn't even realize how much I had missed it," she said staring out into the dark.

"Have you ever thought of doing an advice column?" Jenny joked, grinning over at her friend. "It just feels good to know that some people know, and they're the important people, and they.. don't care. So why should I? I think Ella was kind of mad that I thought she'd care. I should have known better," she muttered, biting at her lip.

The continuing mention of cheerleading did brighten her up a little. "I say give it a try. I mean, you've got Sera to back you up. And think of how mad she'll be if you're better than her! So if you go in there and own it, she will work three times are hard to own it too. You guys could really turn the team around. You danced, so you'll have natural talent and she'll have.. determination to be the best at life. Right?" the blonde suggested, giggling a little. "Someday she'll get over that, I'm sure."

	Meka/Jenny

She couldn't but smile at that. "No, I never thought about that," she said shaking her head. "I've been writing the arts section forever," she laughed. She had never thought of herself as an excellent advice giver, then again, she never took her own advice. "Exactly," she said brightly. "It must feel awesome to have it out instead of holding it all in to yourself," she said leaning back a little.

"That's true, I was kind of relieved when Sera told me she wanted to cheer. I didn't think I was ever going to tell anyone my secret want to cheerlead," she admitted, her cheeks still feeling a little warm. "I think she's going to get really good at it," Meka laughed. "She's going to be team captain in no time. I don't think she'll stop wanting to be the best until she's President of the US," she beamed.

"You're probably right," Jenny agreed, smiling fondly at the thought. "I can't believe she hasn't had me fitted for first lady pantsuits yet," the blonde joked, laughing some as she reached for her Jones again. "If anyone could do it though, it's her. Sera has determination that I can't even comprehend.. I mean, I like to study, but that girl likes to study. It's an actual joy."

Jenny stretched her legs out in front of herself, clicking the heels of her sneakers together lightly. "I wish I could be out like her. I wanna join the pride union, but then it's like.. I might just wait until next year."

	From: learntofly	Date: March 18th, 2011 09:43 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Meka/Jenny

Meka laughed. "Pantsuits? You ladies are going to look so pimp," she joked. "We've both been working on being more social though," she admitted. "You could lock us in a room with books and we would be pleased as punch," she laughed.

"It will come along some day you know? You'll feel comfortable enough to be out and in the Pride Union. We could always go to a meeting or something if you want. I'll go with you."

	Meka/Jenny

"She might like me, but Sera's first love will always be the lady's suit," Jenny replied, grinning broadly. "I know the feeling though. I've been studying even more than usual since Sera and I hooked up.. I mean, granted, we don't always study the whole time. But we both love it so it's like we get lost for hours doing essays. It's kind of amazing."

She pulled her knees closer, exhaling heavily and glancing away as she knew her cheeks were probably flushing. "I'd like that, actually. I wonder what they do there?"

	Meka/Jenny

Meka couldn't help but laugh. "It's true," she grinned. "She knows how to rock it too," she nodded. "That's kind of adorable," she beamed at Jenny. "We're just a bunch of dorks aren't we?" she beamed.

"I don't know but I think they talk about a lot of things," she beamed. "Everyone seems really nice but I've never gone to one of their meetings."

	From: 867_5309	Date: March 20th, 2011 06:20 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Meka/Jenny

"We totally are. I kind of think we're all pretty amazing, dorks or nerds or whatever we are. Did I tell you Ella said she couldn't believe we were in the same womb before? She just doesn't get science jokes," Jenny pouted, arms crossing loosely.

"If you think they won't mind us going and checking it out for a meeting or two, then I'm down. I think it might be fun."

	From: learntofly	Date: March 20th, 2011 06:47 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Meka/Jenny

"Me too," she grinned. "Dorks of the world unite!" she said, digging through her pocket for another cigarette. She placed a cigarette between her lips and lit it with a match, giving a gentle laugh. "She doesn't get science jokes? Whaaaaaaaat?" she laughed again. "Though you really are crazy different."

"I don't think they would mind," she nodded. "It could be a lot of fun I think and like... insightful," she said nodding.

"Seriously. She could totally get them if she tried, but she doesn't so that makes me not funny? Whatever," Jenny lamented, pouting. When Meka mentioned how different they were, the blonde gave a little shrug. "We are and we aren't.. I think it'd be weird if we were totally identical. We just need to be identical enough to fool people and I'm fine," she explained, grin spreading cross her lips.

"Maybe El will come too, I bet they have a lot of rainbows and stuff?"

	From: learntofly	Date: March 22nd, 2011 02:36 pm (UTC)		(Link)
	Meka/Jenny

"Nah, I think they're funny," she grinned. "Just different senses of humor." She looked at her friend and nodded thoughtfully. "It's weird and it took me a while but I can like... tell you guys apart easily. I think it's in your approach or something," she shrugged.

"Oh I bet! I bet she would love it," Meka grinned. "Lots of rainbows and bright colors. Though I'm sure there's more to it than that," she giggled. "They all seem really nice."

"Yeah, I've been told I have a much.. calmer approach to most things. Especially in comparison to my sister," Jenny agreed, smiling fondly. "School just amplified all that. It was like all of these new ways to express ourselves.. still love her though, even if she's crazy."
