Money To Blow // Henry && Open

“With the way things are going, I don’t think I have to be. I mean, it’s pretty clear that you’re already sweet enough for the three of us combined,” Zac snapped back. Unfortunately for T.K., the mimic almost always had to have the last word in any argument. And since Henry doesn’t seem to be willing to wave the white flag anytime soon, T.K. better brace himself for a really stormy time.

“I’m taking that as a ‘Yes, I still haven’t gotten to her pants ‘cause I’m too chicken’.” Because despite her being one of Robbie’s best friends, she’s also the greatest ammo he has against Henry and heaven be damned if Zac’s just going to let such a gold mine go. “Or maybe you’re one of those who can’t just get it up? You don’t have to be embarrassed ‘bout it dude, it happens.” This was accompanied by the most sickeningly sweet empathetic face ever, complete with the supposedly sweet pout and the fist-clutched-near-the-heart gesture. “I can refer you to someone who could help if you want.”

His face softened considerably when he turned to Terrance, becoming a little bit more sincere with his friendliness and smiles. “Great. Just tell me when so I can reserve the DJ already. Oh, and so that I can make sure it won’t clash with the grad party I’m hosting too.” It’ll happen in their beach house/estate down in California, a week and a half after the ceremony proper. “Don’t worry, I’ve got flight and hotel accommodations. I’m inviting the whole grad class.” And a few others, of course. “You’re welcome to come too T.K. As for you Grumpy, you should be nicer to me lest I revoke your invite.” It came in with the graduation ceremony invites, he said. He was part of the grad committee after all.

“Oh live a little will you. What’s the fun in following the rules all the time?” And he figures when the party’s already happening, there’s only so much the administration can do to stop it. “You are getting kegs right?”

Henry ignored Zac’s statement. The other man wanted the last word? Fine. He was more than welcome to have the mimic take that one home if he would just let the topic be. He did, however, stop dead at the insult to his…uh, let’s just say endurance. For politeness’s sake.

“It is none of your business what Estelle and I do in our free time and I think it is incredibly degrading toward yourself that you would stoop to such a level,” Henry snapped. It wasn’t so much that he was being questioned on the physical level, although like any other man it stung his pride, but he hated that Zac had dragged Estelle into it. Personal insults he could manage. He disliked his girlfriend being dragged into the argument. If Zac ended up insulting the girl, God knows what’ll happen. “And I am beginning to wonder why you would have this name to give, LaRousse. Had experience with this problem before, or was it something you kept just in case?”

Well, the graduation ceremony had obviously been an uncomfortable topic for TK, but he was grateful that the topic seemed to have been fairly well avoided. And that whatever Zac’s feelings were for Henry, at least he was being nice to TK.

“I would be honored,” Henry informed Zac, “if you would revoke it now and be done with it. And you really have not asked for permission?” He was frowning at TK now. “I am not sure this is wise—and a keg?” The LAST thing he wanted was everyone at this blasted thing to be inebriated. “Are you sure that is, ah, a good idea? TK, perhaps we should show some restraint with the alcohol…?”

…There had to be a way to shut the two of them up. Though, none of the reasonable ideas crossed his mind. The only thing that made sense was to hurry this trip up so Henry and Zac could go about their separate ways… It would be his luck that the two would end up having to travel together on the way back home, though.

TK looked at the both of them during their little war, sighing, putting his focus back to the task at hand. The faster he was done, the sooner they could stop. "Not entirely sure on the date just yet, but I'll definitely let you know once I've finalized everything," TK responded. They probably didn't need much else from this store; they had found everything they needed and this, quite possibly, could be the end.

"Kegs? I wasn't… but that doesn't sound like a bad idea…" He looked from Zac to Henry, laying a hand on his shoulders while he spoke he responded to his worries. "Chiiiiiiiill. The worst that could happen is I get suspended, or expelled or something. I'm already not graduating. Win-win, right?" He smiled. "Besides, a little alcohol won't hurt."
