My Suggestion

She didn’t want to get angry for at least a month, what the fuck did she think I wanted. All I wanted was for her to remain here not to be saddled with her for forty-eight hours. And I definitely didn’t want to hear her mouth constantly, so now I had to figure out a way that she can be around me, but not around me but we both can learn how the Japanese handle awkward social situations. And then when she shut her mouth long enough so I could hear myself think it came to me- a night out on the town!

I stop and turn towards her, “Tell me you have something besides that damn school uniform to wear for a night on the town?”

The look on her face told me we were about to have another situation, so I cut it off fast before she managed to make me swing at her. “Christ, a party outfit, like a little black dress, a tight sweater and a mini skirt or something that at least shows off some curves!”

Vehemently Teyla spoke, “I do not dress in such fashion! I let my abilities speak for me!”

“Well unless you think talking like a computer nerd is going to get you into a nightclub so you can watch a Japanese couple confront each other.!” She just stood there so I gave her an idea of how she could spend part of the day. “Look you have the whole day to find something suitable to wear, then get ready to spend a few hours among Japanese club goers!”

Then just to prove to her that I wasn’t kidding, “You better plan to show some curves or get ready to go back to France!”

She may have hated the idea but not enough to go back to France, So while I was attending my first Japanese practice, Teyla was shopping for an outfit. At least for a few hours I only had to worry about snapping the ribs of a few!

A little after seven PM a knock came to my dorm door. On the other side stood Teyla with a three quarter length coat showing off a damn curvy set of legs, that made me wonder if there were curves above those legs worth looking at?

I would have to find out later, I opened the door and stepped into the hall and took Teyla by her left elbow and escorted her to the front of the dorms and hailed a cab to take her to Kabukichō, the entertainment district and to the night of our social research. The entire cab ride was done in silence between us, so i didn’t have any problem pretending to view the scenery out the windows on her side of the cab.

Reality was that I was looking at Teyla, every chance I got. She had a perfect profile. A pert nose over a set of lips that seemed to be begging to be kissed. A strong chin and what I could only think were a set of gorgeous eyes that had me intrigued as to what was going on behind them!

We arrived outside a club with a small line of Japanese couples dressed to the nines, waiting to get inside. I got out and went around to help Teyla out of the cab and I swear most of the eyes in the line went to her legs. But when Teyla removed her coat, it wasn’t just eyes in the line that went to what she was wearing, mine were bugging out of my eye sockets.

Christ I hope what I say was only in my head, “Christ some frogs clean up real nice!”

“I’m so glad that the barbarian in you approves of how this computer nerd as you have called me, cleans up!”
