Halle and Dean had a few people over in celebration of Memorial Day.
Halle- "So, tell us! How was your date with Timothy?"
Carissa- "Horrible!"
Olivia- "What?! What happened?"
Carissa- "Well, when we were speaking, all he did was talk about his ex-girlfriend, who he's apparently still crazy about."
Halle- "Oh gosh, I'm sorry."
Olivia- "So am I, I had no idea."
Carissa- "And on top of that, he was too cheap to pay for my dinner."
Alex- "Ouch."
Alex- "You should have pulled the restroom move."
Carissa- "Huh?"
Alex- "When you saw that the date was going nowhere, excuse yourself to the ladies room, then head for the nearest exit."
Carissa- "That's just wrong."
Halle- "Well, so is talking about his ex when he's on a date with you."
Olivia- "I agree Carissa, he would have paid for that therapy session. Sorry girl, that was really my fault."
Carissa- "I think I'm destined to be alone."
Alex- *eye roll* "Ugh."
Halle- "You are not."
Olivia- "You can do what I've done. I have taken a personal pledge to not focus on finding a man."
Carissa- "I may have to take that pledge."
Halle- "Not to knock your pledge, but Landon seems to really have a thing for you."
Olivia- "Isn't he a sweetie pie?! It's tempting."
Alex- "Then date him! Just don't go into it looking for anything more than a good time. Goodness! Is everyone looking for a husband?"
While the ladies chat it up in the kitchen, Shane and Mason enjoy the baseball game.
Mason has brought his daughter, Bridget, along.
Dean is grilling outside on the balcony.
Ms. Alina and Belinda enjoy their burgers.
Jessie and Amber stay close.
A While Later
Halle goes to check on the chef.
Halle- *smile* "Your food was very very tasty."
Dean- "Thanks babe."
Meanwhile...
Landon- "So, you don't return phone calls anymore?"
Olivia- "Trust me, it's nothing personal."
Ms.Alina- *chimes in* "She's just been busy, that's all."
Landon- "Is that right?"
Olivia- "Landon, it's just a bad time right now."
Inside the apartment
The baseball game is still going on.
Belinda, Mason and Bridget talk cookies.
Carissa and Jessie take a moment to catch up.
Jessie- "How are things?"
Carissa- "Things are great."
Jessie- "Good."
Carissa- "Umm...I've never apologized for that catastrophe of a date. I'm so sorry."
Jessie- *smile* "No worries, I survived."
Carissa- *smile* "I see." A few moments later, "I heard that you're getting married."
Jessie- "Yeah, that's true."
Carissa- "Congratulations, she's a lucky girl."
Jessie- "Thank you."
Shane- "Oh, come on!"
Amber- "That's not good."
Hours Later
The last guests are leaving.
Halle- "Thanks for coming!"
Belinda- "Thanks for having us!"
Olivia- "I'll talk to you later."
Halle- "Okay."
Ms. Alina- "Halle, you should come out dancing with us one of these nights!"
Halle- "Sure, I'm up for it."
Olivia- "Just make sure you don't have to go into work the next day. She can close any club!"
They say goodnight, then Halle walks out to the balcony.
Halle- "It's just me and you now mister."
Dean- "It's about time."
Halle- "Let's go to bed."
Dean wraps his arms around her- "Not just yet."
Hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day weekend! :)
