Benny knew that he and Mimi had very different tastes. He was pretty sure she wouldn't be interested in his choice. "You telling me you want pistaccio ice cream?" he asked with a smirk.

Upon entering her room, Lilly glanced the phone. Maybe April would be able to help her figure this out! She always had the answers to almost everything else. She picked up her phone and dialed the number of April's cell phone. Hopefully she wouldn't be busy.

"Cathrine Moor?" Allison asked. She'd heard the name. Who hadn't? But she hadn't yet had the pleasure. Or...the displeasure? The girl seemed to be relatively popular. But that didn't mean she was a good person. April nodded. "That's the one" she responded to Allison. Suddenly her phone started ringing. Raising an eyebrow, she glanced toward Roger and Penny. "Excuse me..." She pulled out her phone. "April Ericcson here."

"Hey, it's Lilly. You busy?" asked Lilly. She twirled her chunky old-fashioned phone cord around her finger. "I gotta ask you about something. But if you're busy we can just talk about it tomorrow."

April raised an eyebrow, but then smiled. She had an idea on what this was about and if that was the case, this just couldn't wait. "Oh no, we can talk." She took Roger's hand with her free on. "Just hanging out with Penny and Roger. I'll explain later. So what's up?"

"Oh. Tell them I said hi. Anyway- I know this is like, a really awkward question, but how far did you and Dwayne ever go- or consider going? 'Cause we've only been together two days and we're moving really, really fast. And I know I'm talking fast too, so I can repeat some of this if you need me to. But it feels...I don't know, like there's nothing wrong with that. And I've taken health class. I know there's a million things wrong with it." Lilly exhaled deeply as she finished speaking. There was so much to talk about!

April blinked slightly as Lilly spoke a mile a minute. Despite that, she basically caught the gist of what Lilly was saying. She raised an eyebrow. "Whoa, Lilly, first of all, breathe. I'm not kidding. Second of all...well..." She thought for a moment. "We weren't planning on going..." She glanced toward Roger. Crap!

"Going where? Finish? Please? And okay." Lilly took a moment and practiced her breathing. "Okay, so finish the thought! I want to know if...what we're...what we're doing- or not doing- is wrong."

April took a deep breath, squeezing Roger's hand. "Well, we didn't go that far at all." She winced. Please forgive me Rog, please forgive me... Hopefully, he'd understand that it wasn't at all what it sounded like.
Penny raised an eyebrow. "What the...actually, forget it. I won't ask."

"Okay, okay, that's good. But, um...well, I don't know if I should be concerned...considering...Well, we just made out for almost an hour in the front seat of his car." Lilly squeezed her eyes tight shut as she thought about it. "And it felt right. And I don't know what to do with myself."

"Unfortunately, I'm not that easy," Mimi replied, wrinkling her nose slightly. She laughed softly afterward to let him know she was kidding incase she was giving off bad vibes or something like that. "On second thought, chocolate will work fine. I don't really care right now. That picture has me bugged. I figured out what it needed, but it still doesn't look right," she explained, sighing softly and shaking her head.

Roger looked at April when she was on the phone. He didn't really mean to eavesdrop on what she was saying but what he heard, didn't sound that good. He couldn't really understand what she was talking about except it had to do with a guy. Roger didn't want to ask at the moment and tried to occupy himself.

Benny chuckled, ordering them their chocolate and pistaccio ice creams. Listening to Mimi speak of her sketch, he frowned a little. "I'm sure it's fine, Mimi," he assured her, "Can I see it?" Looking around the crowded ice cream parlour, Benny asked, "Nowhere to sit, you want to go for a walk while we eat, maybe?"

April's eyes widened. "Whoa...Lilly...well...have you discussed any of this with him yet?" She gave Roger a sideways glance and bit her lip. "Hold that thought Lill..." She pressed the phone against her shoulder. "Roger, baby, I know this sounds weird, but please don't be mad. I'll explain later." Looking at him with pleading eyes, she went back on the phone. "Okay, I'm back."
Penny bit her lip as she silently ate her ice cream. What was she supposed to say? She'd be interrupting two conversations. She couldn't help but feel a cold stab of jealousy. Why did April have to be so popular? Or it sure seemed like it...the people who actually called themselves popular would probably disagree. But she was. Or at least she was busy enough to seem that way. And now she had Roger...would she really have any time for her pathetic baby cousin?

Mimi smiled, laughing softly to herself as she took her ice cream once it came. "Hell, Benny, I could draw a lopsided stick person and you'd tell me it rivaled DaVinci," she joked. "And of course you can see it. How else am I going to get a second opinion?" She popped back over to the table she'd been sitting at, which, it seemed, had been claimed as soon as she stood up, and gathered her bag, making sure it hadn't been gone through before returning to Benny's side. "Walking sounds like a plan. It's actually nice outside today."
