It was the night of the dance...great, she thought to herself. Not only have I lied through my teeth but now, I have to find some way to cover up this whole thing. Geez, who woudl ever think that a slight craving for chocolate woudl lead to this. Then again it wasn't the first time she had done soemthing like this. But all the other times, Nikki was her safe alibi. She didn't know anyone else well enough to hang out with. Maybe Zack, she thought, and then quickly disabused that notion. She needed some time apart from him. Geez, she thought to herself, I sound like someone who had dated Zack for years. Get over it she told herself. It wasnt really the thought of losing Zack that hurt her, it was more the thought that Zack was miserable. It sounded a tad bit egotistical, but it was true.

She walked into the deserted Tulsa West Library. She was glad they had extended opening hours till 10.00. After that there would just be three hours to kill, until she had to meet up with Nick. She walked briskly to the section she always visited and was overjoyed to see a new book dealing with Anubis and a legend revolving around the Book Of the Dead. She had read the "supposed" Book of The Dead on the Internet, and boy had it freaked her out. Hopefully this would give her a little insight into the Egyptian legend without her having to read it online. Julie was definetly head over heels in love with anything Egyptian. She had spent her last summer giving her room a complete Egyptian Make over, painting the walls and placing egyptian style ornaments throughout her room. Her neck was eternally adorned with the Queen Neferetti, a Scarab symbol, not to forget a tiny pure gold ankh that had been given to her by her late grandmother.

After an hour of reading all the apocryphal descriptions of Ancient Egypt she moved on to, Tulsa West's prize collection. Archies! Her innocent love for comics had never been overshadowed by maturity.

"Hey" a voice called out. An unfamiliar voice.

"Uh...hi..I'm sorry are you one of Nick's friends?"

"Nope, I'm the big brained brother of Zachary Walker Hanson"

Oh God, she thought to herself...what was she supposed to do, she wondered if he knew about her and Zac, wondered whether he thought she was a total jerk for leading him on like that. Although she never meant to. Damn destiny, no actually, damn fate for brining me here and making me bump into him.

"Nice to meet you, almighty big brained brother"

It had always been easy for her to be Ms. Congeniality in person, no matter what she thought of someone. It worked with everyone, except Nikki, Nikki saw through her.

"Hello? Anyone out there? DO YOU COPY?"

Woah, she had been lashed out by her day dreaming tendencies again.

A lady, presumable the librarian came up to them and informed Issac,

"There's a photocopying store next door. I'm sorry our photocopier broke down last week"

He looked over at the store "We copy, 24 hours a day, IN COLOR! For all your needs."

Issac and Julie started laughing simultaneously.

"You sure do know how to attract the pretty librarians don't you Issac?"

"Hey that HAPPENS to be, one of my friends mothers you know??"

"really?"

"no."

"Great joke Issac..that was gay"

"Not as gay as "We copy, 24 hours a day, IN COLOR! For all your needs." Hmm..i wonder what kind of "needs" those are"

"Oh man, youre not being a sicko are you?"

"Me? The almighty bird man? No way. Beaks are my speciality"

"Oh god, a pervert"

"I was kidding."

"Geez, everyone I know does that. They're doing a great job of telling a joke, or being scarcastic and then they have to go spoil it by saying theyre kidding. I mean, hello dick nose, if you want to make sure that the person knows youre being sarcastic, why bother beign scarcastic in the first place??"

"Woah, vent baby, vent"

"And THAT is another thing. Guys should NOT go around calling girls Baby. I mean who do they think they are calling people they dont know, as someone they helped conceive. Save it for your real baby, God, knows those men will suck at beign fathers anyway, they might as well do the best they can."

"Hm, I hope first impressions don't count much in your books since at the moment, I am a bird brained dick nosed pervert who will suck at being a good father. Should I be turning to Crack right now?"

"Nope, Marijuana is better to start off on."

"Uh ok...i don't really do that sort of stuff."

"Man, leave it to you to force me to say I'm kidding."

"Haha..whoops...ok anwyay, instead of nothingness talk, you want to get a hotel room?" he said sensually, in his best pushy voice

"WHAT?"

"Are you a virgin?"

"YES." Julie was awestruck, was this Zac's brother talking to her? He wanted to have sex??

"I'm not baby, I have the experience." He moved closer to her and started stroking her on her neck. He knew she knew better than to scream

"What are you doing?" Julie was almost in tears.

"Giving you a good time baby"
