Death Takes the Prom-- Reginalds Kiss-- Dedicated to Tane

by Jeffrey in Texas

Reginald wasn;.'t sure he was as skinny as he was 7 months ago. he felt like his but had ripped the back of the
Tuxido. Mark Lewis-- His new best freind-- was fasting on hsi bow. that blood red bow. it made"
Reginald sick to his stomach. he still rembered that dark night with blood, and... ugh Romona.
He wondered what really did happen to the Girl, some to think of it, he didn;t think the cops ever came to the Mansion at all.
He and Snikett had been investingating thinsgfor motnths and had
completly forgotten about Romona in the First place.
"You look all worked up, Buddy. Something on your mind?" asked Mark. Mark was a nice enough
kid once you got to know 'em. Reginald looked at him and smiled.
"Nothing, just you know... cold feet i guess?"

"You. you have cold feet with one of the Hottest girls in school. I wonder how Tessa even fell in love
with you, dude" said Mark smirking. Reginald forced a smile.

The music of teh Prom was loud and the hueg Gym was filled with teens and food. Lily James was
stuffing her face, and teh Cheerleaders were feeling the Jock'S muscles, though Reginald suspected Steroids.
Reginald took a deep breath before stepping out of teh dressing tent. teh Audutorium wa sopen as well for like ballroom dancing, and
the Basketball court outside that was also the Courtyard, was open for just walking around and such.
Reginald never thought he would see his Prom. but here he was, stadning on teh rim of the gym as teh Prom
went on. Reginald stepped out in his White Tuxido and top hat. he was growing a goatee and was getting taller by teh month.
He stared over some of the people and looked for Tessa's cherry blond hair. then she practically tackled him and kissed him on the lips. Reginals pulle dhimself up and smiled at her. she was smiling. her Cherry Blonde hair was in curls and her giant Brown eyes looked like
how Puppies did when they were trying to beg. she wore red lipstick and was tall for her age. Reginald was then tapped by a man. of all the People
with a cigar in his lips, Snikett. he was smiing and wearing hsi vest, with hsi asian looking eyes, and his hair was now
a ruffled brown mess, but somehow he had pulle dit off. he held a cane whit looked much to tall for a cane in fact.
"Reginald, well don't you look stunning?"  Reginald probably blushed, Snikett had that affect on people.

"Yeah, i guess. have ou met Tessa Bloom?" Asked Reginald. Tess aheld out her Hand and Snikiett did more. eh mashed his lips on hers. Reginald threw him off and thenb Snikett straightned his tie.

"I'm sorry, i think they;ve put something in the Punch." he said and then moving through teh crowd.

"That man-"

"Is cute." she said blushing then stared pale faced at Reginald. Reginald rolled his eyes and oulled her through teh crowd towards teh center to dance.
as they span, he observed his souroundings. he woudl never forget that night, with Romona, he was on high alert.
Even his own birtjday party was ruined by some red head, now he was watching out. then Reginald stared down at hsi date. she had her eyes closed and her head agiast his chest. Reginald put hsi head on hers. tey swayed for long moments, then Quinvion Clark walked up to them and was smiling hard. Reginald gorlwed and pulled his dathe behind him as if he were her guard, which he kind of sort of was.

"What do you want?"

"Nothing, do you have a dollar?" he asked. hsi lips looked opungent like he had smeared something on and off of them,
and his tie and clothes were ruffled liek he had been running.

"You must have been through the forest and back." said Reginald with a gwiorling tone. Quinvion olooked pale for a monet then shook it
off. he held out hsi hand.

"Again, do you have a dollar?" Quinvion asked.

"No. now get away, me and my date are trying to have a dance." Quinvion stared his hot breath stank as he breathed through gis mouth, then he spoke.

"Alraight, i got you. watch your back Reg." he said and walked away into the crowd. Reginald Growled then he was pulled to the floor like a dog.
