The dream

Jane’s Dad opens the door. “Hey there, John. You’re a bit late, the parties already started. Jane was greeting people but she’s erm.. Off with someone. “

“Ah, don’t worry. i’m sure il find someone i know”. This is the first party I’ve ever been to. To be honest, i’m not even sure how i got invited. I only know a few people here.

“Here, before you go anywhere, let me show you something.” Jane’s dad says.

What could he possibly be showing me? I hold in my questions and follow him through the crowds of drunken teens, up a set stairs. He walks up to a door and puts his ear against it, probably to make sure no one from party had snuck in, and then opens the door.

“Jane’s room?!” You can barely believe it. Why had he brought you up here? Without her dad noticing, you try to look around the room.

“You know, I love Jane, but she doesn’t always make the best choices. She’s smart, but doesn’t always show it. Like right now, she’s making out with some boy she doesn’t even like. And they are almost always bad people. That’s why i invited you today.”

“What?” Where is this going? You keep glancing around the room, trying to find a clue.

“I found this the other day. Look at this, she writes down the name of everyone she likes behind her dresser.” As her dad moves the dresser across, you notice 2 things. Firstly, there are 10 names on there. You recognise a few of them as the popular boys at school. Secondly, 6 of the names are mine. Not just my first name, there was no mistake, it was me. There was even a picture that she took of your instagram. I might think this was creepy if i wasn’t so unbelievably turned on right now.

After staring at the wall for a bit, I turn and face her dad. “Wh.. what do you want?”

“Please date my daughter.”
