I cleaned myself up with one thought in mind, and one only. Did I dream up last night?

My face was burning red. Everything was extremely vivid, and nothing seemed uncharacteristically different from the boys... except the kissing, of course.

It felt real. It felt really real, and really good... I was ashamed to admit that I'd ever thought of the boys like that, but I'd be lying if I said I hadn't.

If my face got any hotter, I'd burst into flames. It was probably just hormones from my unexpected surprise, but I kept thinking about the way Bill felt against my neck, and how full and damp Ted's lips were... right on my jawline...

A knock on the door startled me out of my trance and I somehow went redder, hastily putting my glasses on.

"You almost done in there, dudette?" It was Bill.

"Y-Yeah...," I stammered, "One sec."

I slid on some sweats for comfort and snuck out of the door, disheveled, past Bill in only his underwear.

So that part of the night held up...

I blushed hard as he grinned at me. There looked like a dark mark on his neck. Shadow, or did I do that?

I ran to my room to get the sheets off my bed.

I hated how I felt. I hated being confused. It was like I was drunk without drinking, because I couldn't even remember if my two best guy friends made out with me.

And it was way too embarrassing to ask.

Bill was no longer just in his underwear, but he had no shirt, which made my throat dry. He was in my doorway, leaning casually against the wood frame.

"Hey," he smirked. I couldn't look at him for more than three seconds.

"Sleep well?" I asked awkwardly.

"You bet," I could feel eyes on me.

Part of me wanted to run and hide, the other wanted to back him into a wall and---

"How'd you sleep?" He asked. I lost my thoughts.

"Uhh... I had a weird dream...,"

He grinned and finally stepped up to his bag and pulled on a black tshirt with a light blue jacket over top of it. That didn't help me focus any more.

"I know, I could hear you talking to yourself. That's why Ted and I came in...,"

I wanted to hide away.

"Did I say anything... interesting?" I murmered, not able to look him in the eyes. He moved closer. He was breathing on me. No air.

I stared down at his chest, unable to maintain eye contact with his intense blue-green gaze.

"It was pretty good, yeah...," his voice dropped an octave, I swear. Unprompted, my hand placed itself of his chest. "You were dreaming something fun, I think. Makin' a lotta noise, dude...,"

My throat felt really thick. I was barely choking out words.

If I look up right this instant, I will kiss him, I thought. Why on earth is he so close to me?!

I went red, "Was I?"

He tucked a hair behind my ear, "That's why we came to check up on ya..."

I looked up at him. He was about to lean in for a kiss, I could tell. He was far too close. Our noses touched. My breathing stopped.

"Lucky! Phone!"

My mom.

"Mom's calling," I whispered, quickly backing away from Bill. My knees hit the edge of my bed and I fell onto my back. I skittered up and out of the room, almost sending Ted headlong into a wall as I ran out.

I got to the kitchen in record time.

"You alright, sweetie?" Mom asked. The crease between her eyebrows worried me. I hoped he hadn't heard me last night, or seen the boys in my room.

"I'm fine, I'm fine," I lied, "Heads up, I got my gift from Mother Nature today, though,"

Mom passed me the phone and nodded to show she was going to prepare for the next week.

"Sup, Luck. Get dressed, I'll be over in 15. We're going to the mall."

"Good morning to you, too, Scarlet," I chuckled.

"I'm serious, I'm picking up River, then I'm getting you. You mom said Bill and Ted are there too, so that saves me a trip. On the way to the mall, you can fill me in on your fun night," she teased. I reddened. If only she knew.

"Okay see ya soon," I awkwardly ended. I hung up the phone and went back to my room to tell the guys. This time it was Ted who was pulling on his shirt. His entire back was bare and muscular. Kinda made me want to tackle him.....

He turned around and once again, I snapped back to reality. He smiled when he saw me.

"H-Hey... Scar called. She wants to take us and Riv to the mall today. You game?"

"Absolutely!" Bill said excitedly. "I love scoping out babes at the mall."

My heart dropped, just the slightest bit. Oh, so you weren't 'scoping me out' last night?

A little blow to the pride, but understandable. I wasn't exactly jaw droppingly gorgeous.

I hated this feeling, though. Never had I actually been interested in boys until I saw Team Stallyns. I never preserved with anyone I had found attractive for the sole purpose that I wanted to throw up when talking to people.

And then here comes Bill, Ted, River, and Alonso, all very attractive men, who willingly want to spend time with me.

I'm a wreck. And absolute wreck.

Ted's shirt was on now and I went into my closet. I stayed in there to change, mainly to save me the embarrassment. I just didn't want to look at Bill and Ted any longer, or I'd probably try and pin them to the wall.

Of course, if I did that, they'd probably explain that they didn't feel that same way, or accidentally elbow me in the face, or get angry and stop being my friend...

I was in a little black skirt and my favorite knit sweater, and slowly emerged.

"Didn't even realized you changed in there, babe!" Ted laughed, looking me over. I put a flower headband on for once in my life.

Then there was a car horn honking. Montague started barking at the arrival of my friend, and I quickly slipped out of the room without asking what was really on my mind.

"Deacon!" Ted called downstairs to his brother, "I'm leaving. You need to go too. Go to Kyle's to play, you can't stay here!"

The three of us got out the door, kinda counting money as we went, and we say Scarlet and River sitting on the roof of the car.

River, upon noticing us, shouted, "shotgun!" and jumped off the roof. Ted swore at his friend, then bragged.

"It's okay, it means I get to get cozy in the backseat with a beautiful babe!"

Scarlet whistled, I blushed and hid then River countered him.

"Yeah, well I'm in front with a pretty babe, too!"

Bill piped up, "It's gonna sit in the middle. Then you'll all be with all hot dude."

We laughed and I broke away to hug Scar.

"So what prompted this day out?"

"Well, the guys need new outfits, and Lord knows that you and I need an upgrade if we're gonna start jobs at Electro Records... plus, I just wanted to get out, grab some lunch, blow some Christmas cash... you know."

"Yeah, I thought it was strange of you to suggest shopping," we stuck out our tongues at each other, and I made a face.

"I'M DRIVING," She bellowed. "So that means behave yourselves or I'll kill you."

Riv got in the front seat after picking me up in a hug and spinning around. "Nice to see you, Lucky," he said politely, just in my ear.

"You too, River. It's been a while," I pulled back and patted him on the shoulder.

"So tell me, what were you doing alone with two boys last night?" Scarlet asked me, adjusting her mirror.

"I--"

"We totally made out!" Ted blurted out. He laughed. He was completely kidding --maybe-- but then, I realized... maybe he didn't want the others to know about his dad. That took a bit of the discomfort out of his comment.

"Oh please," Riv called his bluff. "You mean to tell me you got lucky with Lucky?"

"What do you mean by that, River?" I joked back.

"Pff, just saying. In your dreams, Logan!"

"In my dreams too, then," Bill boasted, "She was all over me."

"Okayyyy shut up now!" I cried, turning red. Scar cracked up.

"No, for real, I was angry with my dad, so Lucky's mom had me stay over. We just watched Star Trek, and it made me feel better." Ted smiled.
"Thanks again."

"Any time. We should have a Team Stallyns night one of these days. That would be fun. You can bring your instruments and favorite movies...,"

The murmur of agreement left the plans up in the air, but I knew it would be awesome if we did.

And I still didn't freaking know if Ted was telling the truth about making out.

Dickweed.
