Pete's Vagina -58- Run/Pass Option
🕑 Added 2024-10-03 20:51:08 +0000 UTCOkay, getting my fingers kissed was… unexpectedly exciting? As a romantic gesture, it had a sort of dorky charm—much like my date, Leland Frick. If I laugh or giggle, is he going to get offended? I tried to limit my reaction to a smile, but a giggle may also have escaped.
“You’re a nut,” I accused.
He actually waggled his eyebrows at me —a very Gomez Addams thing to do— but with his blond looks, it had somewhat less impact.
“Stop it,” I protested. “You’re making me laugh!”
Then we were both laughing and snorting. Had I ever laughed with Lee before? I didn’t think so. Normally, our interactions involved the team and his photography, and we both were rather serious about those things. In fact, we both were kind of too serious most of the time.
He had to look where we were going as we passed the Friendly People sign, and I looked away too, gazing out the windshield while trying to stop smiling. Dating Megan had been fun, but somehow not as… exciting.
Exciting? Lee Frick? I heard myself giggling again.
“What’s this…what’s this movie we’re going to see?”
“It’s called Alien—” he began.
“Oh, yeah,” I interrupted. “A monster on a spaceship thing?”
“Um, sort of,” he agreed.
“Have you seen it?” I asked. “It’s supposed to be scary.” I felt something. Not a shiver, but a… premonition?
“I’ve seen it twice,” he admitted. “It’s got some good direction and amazing special effects. And Sigourney Weaver is, like, badass.”
I laughed. I’d heard enough about the movie to know that Weaver was supposed to be the hero—or heroine.
I glanced sideways at Lee and caught him grinning back at me.
“You’re kind of badass,” said Lee.
“Me?”
“You play football,” he pointed out. “And I heard from Joanna that you and she took care of some party crashers.”
I laughed again. “Yeah, I guess so.” I knew I was blushing. The evidence indicated that Lee liked badass women, and that adjective could be applied to his mom, too.
Lee steered us through town onto the northbound highway, where the El Tesoro Drive-In lay near a mountain that provided it with earlier sundowns.
The football team would be headed this way in three weeks for another contest with the Winslow Eagles, who we were playing at home this coming Friday—the day before Halloween. And the week before the second Eagles game would be our last home game of the season.
“Homecoming,” said Lee.
“Um,” I said, startled. It was almost as if he had listened to my thoughts.
“Has anyone asked you to Homecoming yet?”
“Uh, no.” The sound the van made on the pavement seemed to change, getting louder.
“That’s hard to believe,” said Lee.
I moved a bit on the seat to look directly at him. “I asked Megan,” I told him.
He blinked. A lot.
“Is that…is that still on?”
I looked away again. We passed the turnoff that went toward the Petrified Forest and the Navajo and Pima Reservations. “I don’t know,” I said.

Now Gayle gets to have her own relationships

I hate to say it, but I assume that the relationship with Megan is over, and that is really too bad. Petey really had feelings for Megan and they seemed to be good together, but it looks like Megan bailed when the change happened. I wonder if she even remembers that Petey was male?

Ooo Good choice of film. The original Alien is one of the best Horror movies of all time! I call it horror because it is, just with a sci fi back drop. Aliens the second movie is an action movie though.
SingularCurve
That is probably the case and that is going to be hard on Gayle. Well that and the conversation about if the date is still on or not. Megan did break her heart.

Winslow, Arizona makes me think of “Take It Easy” by The Eagles (written by Jackson Browne). Gayle should think seriously about trading in the car her dad bought her for a “flatbed Ford.”
Julia Miller
This story is set in the late 70’s. The original Alien movie came out in 1979. It would have been a recent release. Gayle also got a used Mercury Capri I think it was a 75 or 76. I’m probably dating myself but she would be around my age within a couple of years, today.
lisa charlenne
i agree
Melanie Brown
Is it me or is Gayle getting prettier? We haven't heard from Jake in a long time.
Samantha Herat
The Megan date to home coming is probably a no at this point lol.
The Goddess
Nice chapter I wonder which Alien movie as the original Alien is pretty old Now that Gayle is female I wonder if Megan will go with her Sounds like Lee wants to take her Nice image
Andrew Payne
