 Seychelles
Cherelle Petit
Freshman
Cherelle's excited smile soon turned to a frown as Andrew explained what was the matter. "Andrew..." She murmured sadly, then cleared her throat. "Andrew, Romero isn't my boyfriend. And, to be honest, I don't want him to be my boyfriend. There's... someone else I like." She looked down at the floor as she spoke, her cheeks burning. C'mon Cherelle! she told herself Just tell him! It's now or never. She took a deep breath and forced herself to look at Andrew. "When we we're talking about dating, we weren't talking about Romero. We we're talking about you." Her voice got a little bit quieter as she spoke her next words. "Andrew, the one I like is you." She smiled lightly at him, glad to have finally told him the truth.

Franny watched Conne leave, 'good he's gone" she was still worried that the only reason he left was to throw out her Alcohol. She needed that to get Luis drunk.
Franny was quite, she felt a bit responsible for Andrew to feel Awkward about Seychelles and Romero dating. When the girl explained she nodded, 'Yeah, anyway, who would want to date this loaf of Moldy bread?" she nodded at Romero.

The State of Tennessee
☀Andrew S. Hickory☀ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Tennessee's expression totally blanked and he dropped his cards when Cherelle confessed to him. He could only stare for a few moments as if unsure what he had heard the nation say. Andrew's cheeks slowly turned a dark crimson as it finally began to sink in but he still hadn't moved. He didn't even seem to be breathing or blinking at the moment. "... O-Oh," he eventually blurted out as if in a stupor. The state struggled hard for some sort of response. During times like this the boy was supposed to say something romantic and special, right? How many songs had he sung or written that revolved around professing love? But now that the moment was real and not something he took from seeing other people he had no pretty words or even tunes to give despite all his best efforts. "M... Me, too..." he finally mumbled as he ducked his head and looked away in shame for how inarticulate he was. Andrew wasn't even completely sure that response made any sense. ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Grade 9

Seychelles
Cherelle Petit
Freshman
Cherelle held her breath waiting for Andrew's response. She was almost certain she had messed everything up now. When he finally responded she was in shock for a few moments. ...'Me too.' That means... he... It took a moment for her brain to process what he meant. She blinked and stared at him for a moment. And finally she smiled and hugged him. "I'm so happy." She said quietly. She was so glad to finally know that he liked her too. She didn't care about how unromantic it was, or how inarticulate his response was, what really mattered to her was that he liked her too.

☀Andrew S. Hickory☀ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Andrew was still and silent a moment when Cherelle hugged him before a awkward, but happy smile finally spread across his cheeks and he hugged her back. The only thing he could manage to do was nod for fear he would say something dumb again, but the young state was all but bursting with relief and joy that Seychelles liked him back. He glanced at his brother appreciatively for helping him out although he was embarrassed by the applause. Even so, Tennessee was in too high of spirits to get annoyed by Alabama's antics and only continued to smile as he held his girlfriend. ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Grade 9

"So what? Let the lovebirds have their fun!" Romero said airily, blowing off his supposed abrupt rejection with a wave of his hand, enjoying and only slightly envying this sweet moment between Seychelles and Tennessee. "But just because I don't have a girlfriend does not mean I suck at dating. I just haven't bothered with it all! Feelings like that only get in the way of a nation's real business." With that comment, he intentionally tried to clap Franny on the back and pretended shock when his hand fell right through her for effect. Nobody insulted him even jokingly and got away with it. He had never seen much point in finding a girlfriend either. Sure, they were great for romantic moments or quiet consolation, but on the whole girlfriends only seemed to turn men into simpering wimps devoted to fulfilling their lady's merest whims. One only had to look at Spain and South Italy to see that.
"So that's what you were so quiet about, amigo?" he asked Andrew. "Silly joven! We were just playing all along! I have no idea who planted the idea of our dating into your head!" he added, slapping the state on the back cheerily and glaring at Franny. "No hard feelings, right?"
He had already known that Seychelles was for someone else, even when they had shared their first dance at Florida's. Her excited outburst earlier had confused him because he had missed the rest of the conversation with Franny; but when she mentioned no more of it, he left it for what it was. Both Romero and Cherelle knew that their antics would only ever be just that, but he hadn't expected both Franny and Andrew to reach such drastic conclusions. For that, he was sorry.
At least the whole matter had gotten properly resolved. "Shall we continue your poker lessons, Cherelle, or shall I play the wedding bells?" he asked teasingly with Alabama. Although he didn't actually have any wedding music to play, he did have plenty of romantic Spanish music that would suit the mood just fine.
(Phone. No, you all did not wait XD But I suppose a page it's better than twenty. || My absence does not give you permission to escape with that insult, Franny! By the way, how old a ghost are you? I want to add that here, but don't know where. || Last line is also a subtle dance invite/excuse to turn on music.)

☀Andrew S. Hickory☀ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ "S-Shut up, Bama," Tennessee complained and wished he sounded more firm than he did, but he could only manage something between a whine and a grumble. The worst part about it was he couldn't stop smiling long enough to give his brother a look for talking about marriage. It was so embarrassing! All of his older siblings were like this! He thought about making another attempt at glaring until he felt Romero's hand falling hard across his back in a friendly slap. "Um, well..." he muttered, feeling embarrassed he'd jumped to conclusions when he overheard their conversation. It probably would have been better to ask first, but maybe there had been a part of Tennessee that was afraid to hear her confirm it. "Yeah, no hard feelin's." Although that might have changed a bit when he heard Romero join in with Alabama's wedding planning. "You, too!?" he gawked in horror as the nation teamed up with his brother. ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Grade 9

"Of course! You two were made for each other; anybody can see that! There's just one thing missing..." Romero stroked his chin in mock seriousness until the stern line of his mouth fell apart in a silly grin. "No es nada; I'm just pulling your leg! I'm sure Johnny is too. You two take it nice and easy now. Besos are fine, but no make-outs in my dorm, sí?" he added with a phony wag of a reproving finger.
The action caused an ace to slip from his hand, and he hastily scooped it up. Then he remembered that the old hand was over already and the fact that he had that ace mattered not anymore. "Oye, niños, are we still playing poker?" the Venezuelan asked, idly shuffling the deck with adroit flicks of his thumbs.
(No idea how to describe that shuffle where you split the deck in half and interleave the cards by sliding your thumbs up each pile.)
