The Costume Party:
A Choose-Your-Own-Adventure FicI've never been much of a party animal; just ask Lucy. If Clark hadn't been the one to bring it up, I wouldn't even be going. The fact that it's technically for work, but minus the part where anybody gets anything done, just makes the whole thing worse!
Still, Clark has a point: with as much trouble as we've had arranging a single date, maybe this could be a gift-horse for us. It'll be our first party as a...couple? Are we a couple? We're certainly more than friends now, the lack of any actual dates not-withstanding. So, it's our first party as a-couple-of-people-who-are-more-than-friends-and-want-to-start-dating-but-haven't-yet. I don't think this shop has costumes for that category, though.
Yes, this is going to be a costume party. Clark said for me to pick what we're both going to wear. That probably means he's expecting us to go in a set of couples' costumes, even though, like I said, we barely qualify as one right now. We are partners, though. Partners and more than friends and...I'm not sure what else yet.
I make my way through the racks of outfits, and a few possibilities catch my eye...
