spamalot } { of dates and finicky jeeps

[impetere]

Stiles: [it wasn't going to be a wild date. It also wasn't a double date - Sorry Scott. Instead, he was going to take Cora to do a typical high school couple date with dinner and a movie. So he will drive up with the jeep to the Hale House and honk the horn so Cora knows he's there]

Cora: [how charming. But she's also waiting on the porch so she jogs down off the stairs and goes to get in the passenger side] Hey.

Stiles: Hey! Hope I didn't keep you waiting long.

Cora: Nope. Just wanted some fresh air.

Stiles: And you can't really get any fresher than out here in the woods.

Cora: Nope. It's as fresh as it gets.

Stiles: So I was thinking dinner and then we can go to a movie? There's a couple good ones at the theatre.

Cora: That sounds great.

Stiles: Great. Then let's get going! [and he's going to turn over the engine aaaaaand Roscoe doesn't want to start] Oh come on, not right now.

Cora: ... I can drive if you want?

Stiles: No, just, give me a sec. I got this. [and he's going to hop out and go into the trunk where he will grab a flashlight, a wrench kit, and a roll of duct tape before going to the engine and opening it up]

Cora: [and she'll pause for a moment while she waits to see what he manages to do and if he needs any help]

Stiles: [and with a 19 he finds what needs to be taped up and leans around the side, flashlight in his mouth and tries to tell her to turn the engine on]

Cora: [eventually she will figure out what the signal means and reach over to try and start the engine]

Stiles: [and Roscoe comes to life and he pumps his fist in the air and closes the hood] Alright, let's get going.

Cora: [she shakes her head but alright. off they go to their date]

Stiles: [yup, to the pizza parlor because they are teenagers and love pizza]

Cora: [mmmm pizza. excellent choice]

Stiles: [he knows what she likes]

Cora: [yes he does. and they'll get a pie to split because yum]

Stiles: [all the meats. and no pineapple since it's a date]

Cora: [you're the best boyfriend]

Stiles: So there's a couple of movies out. any you dying to see?

Cora: [she shrugs] I'm good with whatever you want to see. [your girlfriend still doesn't know much about movies]

Stiles: How about Zootopia?

Cora: Sure. Sounds fun.

Stiles: Cool. So how was school today?

Cora: It was school. Nothing exciting. What about you?

Stiles: Passed my math test, bombed the English one.

Cora: Well, English I cannot help you with.

Stiles: i know.

Cora: Derek might be able to though?

Stiles: But that involves talking to Derek. [grins]

Cora: Well, I guess it depends on how much you want to pass English.

Stiles: I’ll make it.

Cora: Suit yourself.

Stiles: It was just one test. I bet I can get some extra credit or something.

Cora: Sure.

Stiles: Got any weekend plans with the family?

Cora: Nope. Probably just going to hang out and do nothing. [folds up her next slice] Unless you want to do something?

Stiles: I'm always up to do something. Scott and I have some lacrosse practice to keep in shape, but otherwise I'm free. Even did all my homework during study hall.

Cora: My entire family is going to be home, so we could hang out at your house.

Stiles: Well, my dad's got the overnight tonight, and second shift tomorrow so he'll pretty much come home, pass out, wake up and head back to work.

Cora: That sounds like the much better option.

Stiles: I can always tell Scott we can practice on Sunday.

Cora: You don't have to cancel on him.

Stiles: It'll be boring just sitting around watching us.

Cora: Well ... I don't have to?

Stiles: [blinks, confused]

Cora: I mean ... what do you mean?

Stiles: Well, I was thinking maybe, if you wanted, you could stay overnight and hang out tomorrow until my dad came home. The second time.

Cora: [and to put this in a timeline, this is just after the wedding, so they've only really done that the one time and that may not be what he meant, but that's where her brain goes and she blushes a bit] Oh.
