Drabble #3

High School Musical??? AU

New Year’s eve 2016 and it’s snowing heavily in the mountains where most middle class families run to for vacation. Dragging along their reluctant children and cramming the word “fun” into their bored little minds. Here, a popular ski-lodge is being overfilled with music and warmth and an atmosphere of this so-called “fun”. However, one lone boy steered away from the crowd. Opting to practice plays and receives in the gym instead. ‘Practice makes better’ he’s always said.

“The year is ending in an hour, Seungkwan, and you choose to play volleyball.” Seungkwan’s mother stood in the doorway watching on as her son sweated like crazy while spiking the balls with unbelievable force. She tapped her feet exasperatedly when he ignored her. “I know you hear me, young man.”

“Sorry, mah, I just got accepted to the school of my dreams! I can't afford to slack off especially when I was accepted to be the libero of the team!” the blonde argued. He knew he wasn’t as tall as most volleyball players, being barely taller than his mother. But, as he met his future teammates, a pink haired kid who was even shorter than him, another not too tall guy who was the captain by the name of Hoshi(?), an actually really tall guy but with awkward limbs and movement, finally a guy with tan skin a elongated nose and a smile that could very well light up the world. Seeing how normal his teammates seemed, made him gain a bit of confidence. “I just got to be on top of my A-game once the season starts.” he explained determinedly.

However the older more maternal version of him just rolled her eyes. “And who's going to keep your sisters from acting up?” she sassily replied, hands resting against her hip. Seungkwan finally looked at her noticing her attire. Very formal, overdressed in some senses, he rolled his eyes; she was trying to get a date. Walking over to her he wiped a bit of her lipstick off to her chagrin and smiled.

“Okay, okay, mah, I’ll shower and head out to that party, if only to chaperone you.” he responded fondly. His mother wanted to argue but was left no choice since her son was already halfway across the gym toward the locker room. She laughed to herself wondering just where did he get that personality from.

----

On the other side of lodge, was another lone boy. His nose was positively buried in his book. He blocked the outside world so much he barely heard his mother calling his name. Look up with teary eyes he saw his mother sigh and look upwards mumbling ‘what will I do with you?’ to the heavens.

“Vernon, Are you crying because of that book again?”

“Mom, Lord Aldersmith died!” Vernon replied as if this was the most obvious thing in the world. His mother just stared back trying to keep up with his nonsensical rambles about this fictional universe in which wizards exist, pigs can fly, and the main character is an alien from the future.

Vernon’s mom just sighed. “Okay, that's wonderful sweetie,” she paused cringing at the incredulous glare she received. “I-I mean it's tragic that Lord AlfredJones-”

“Aldersmith.” he corrected.

“Lord Aldersmith. Anyway, hun, you know I 100% support your literary interest and I know this is your way to cope with the big move from the other side of the world….” she stopped to see if Vernon was even listening.

“Moving to Korea wasn’t even my choice.” Vernon spat out closing his book harshly, finally giving her his full attention.

“I know. But, we did this for you and your sister….” she stopped when she realized her points weren’t going through. “Listen, no ifs, ands, or buts, take your behind inside and join the party.” She put her foot down and pointed at the doorway. “Make friends.” there was no question or room for argument. Vernon just complied and went inside.

-----

The party was already in full swing. Music blasting, people dancing, and once Vernon entered he could already feel the uncomfortable stares of people who noticed his and his mother’s presence. Vernon rolled his eyes, there was virtually no shame. They all stared at him because of his Caucasian features a few of them even pointed.  He didn’t understand the big deal. So his hair was a lighter color, or his nose was high raised. Either way he doesn’t think this warrants hushed murmurs or intruding fingers. This was something he had grown accustomed to after a month. No longer was he the young boy that would cower at the intense stares. He instead, found the darkest corner with the least population density and holed himself there. His mother practically gave up and went off to join her friends.

Seungkwan had entered moments later on the other side of the room. He quickly found some acquaintances he met at the game earlier and stopped over to talk with them.

The MC—some guy who introduced himself as YoonAngel and wore some cheesy wings accompanied by a plastic halo wired above his head—grabbed the mic. He cleared his throat calling attention to himself. “Alright, alright, alright! It's time for angelme to turn into cupidme!” he cheered vehemently clearly excited about his next segment. “Time for the Love Connection Karaoke! Dj S.Coups, find us our first victims!”

Suddenly the lights went darker and two spotlights could be seen searching the crowd. They moved around for seemingly a long time before stopping right on two unsuspecting boys. Vernon and Seungkwan.

Suddenly the people around them cheered. Vernon who was reading was suddenly hoisted up and pushed towards the front. Seungkwan was battling a group of giggling girls on his own. They both insisted that they could not sing but their protest fell on deaf ears.

Vernon awkwardly grabbed the mic, feeling his face flush as he looked out at the see of people. His partner didn’t seem to be doing any better as his mouth simply opened and closed with no sound projecting making him look like a fish out of water. A beautiful fish, Vernon retracted. But, that was besides the point.

“I-I really can’t sing!” he pleaded for the both of their sake. He just wanted to read his book and be alone for the rest of the year. All his friend’s in New York weren’t even celebrating New Year's yet! It just felt so wrong and backwards to be celebrating so far away from home. Even if it was so his sister and him could have a ‘better’ life. He looked to his partner but he was still set in a status of shock.

“Sorry, bro, no can do! The spotlight has chosen and that is final~” Vernon clicked his tongue this Yoon guy seemed way too excited. “Can you rap?” the blonde man question. Vernon paused thoughtfully before slowly nodding, confirming his suspicions. “I can pick a song perfect for you then!”

Vernon wanted to continue his protest but was cut short when the music started up. “Ariana Grande? Really?” he wanted to judge but he was also guilty of singing along to this song as well. However, the biggest shocker was when his partner started to sing.

I love the way you make me feel, I love it, I love it.

I love the way you make me feel, I love it, I love it.

Vernon’s mouth hung agape. Had he heard an angel? He didn’t think the guy couldn't sing or anything but he didn’t know he was just so...so talented! Vernon caught the sheepish look the boy gave when he noticed Vernon’s unabashed staring. He started to nod over to the machine that had the lyrics to remind Vernon his turn was up. The taller immediately shook off his instant goosebumps and cleared his throat. For some reason he just didn’t want to lose.

I thinkin’ ‘bout him

Every second every hour

Do my singing in the shower

Picking petals off the flowers like-

Do he love me, do he love me not?

I’m not a player I just ---- ----

The real surprise was how confident Vernon became once his turn came up. He smirked when he noticed he was now the receiver of that wow, you're really good look.

Seungkwan started up again. He didn’t think he could sing that well. But, given the cheers and shocked looks from around the room (even his own mother) he guesses he must have a pleasant voice at the most. He’ll embarrassingly admit that he sings a lot when no one is around, often to Ariana or Mariah Carey especially Beyonce but he never thought he was any good.

Although, the gasps when he perfectly executes a high note or when his voice soothe the crowd does make him feel really good. Good enough to become an addict. It also helps that his partner is some sort of model coverboy with a cool voice that seems like he could read the most boringest passage known to man and make is sound interesting.

I got a bad boy I must admit it,

You got my heart don’t know how you did it

And I don't care who sees it babe

I don't wanna hide the way I feel when you’re next to me…

At the climax Vernon even joined in the singing. He wasn’t amazing which caused the crowd to giggle but with Seungkwan’s low harmonic singing and his rough deep voice, it blended perfectly to end the song. Once the music faded out, the crowd stood in silence. Seungkwan worried for a moment that they were actually God-awful and they're going to get booed off the stage until thunderous clapping could he heard across the room. He was shocked at how much they liked it even calling for an encore. Vernon blush madly not used to having this many eyes on him all at once. Usually it was more side glances or peeks but now he was the in the public eye more than ever.

Seungkwan noticed the boy in his mini dilemma and grabbed his arm tugging him through the cheering crowd and towards the exit and out on the balcony.

They stood outside panting feeling exhilarated from what they just did. Finally looking at each other, they both secretly hoped they could blame the cold on their flushed cheeks.

“You okay?” Seungkwan started looking at the boy closer. He had the longest eyelashes and perfect skin he had ever seen. Vernon nodded trying to hide his face behind his long fringe. His blush was darkening at the proximity of their faces and he couldn’t help but notice how perfectly pouty and pink the smaller’s lips were.

“Yo-you were amazing in there…” Vernon wanted to facepalm at just how awkward he sounded.

“Thanks….you were really cool back there too…” Seungkwan replied avoiding the boy’s gaze. Seriously, just how long was he going to stare?

“Naw, you’re just saying that, I’m a nerd, nerds don’t rap,” Vernon mumbled the last part as if it was something natural and accepted in the laws of life. That yes, nerd do not in fact rap. Seungkwan let out a little choked laughter making Vernon furrow his bows.

“You were amazing, dude. Don’t sell yourself short.” the blonde smiled and Vernon admitted, it did something to his heart. They stayed outside admiring the night sky and talking about their parents, siblings, school, and pretty much everything in between.

“You’re going to be the libero at Pledis High School Varsity Volleyball team?!” Vernon blinked.

“Yeah...do you even know what that means?” Seungkwan was all smiles as the boy shook his head shyly. “It’s okay.” he proceeded to pat the taller on his shoulder. “Hey, we should like exchange numbers, who knows if we’ll meet up again…plus I could explain the rules of volleyball to you later” Vernon agreed and they switched phones putting their names and numbers in each other’s phone, Seungkwan even took a picture which Vernon did as well but quickly deleted it since he felt he looked weird. He ducked his head at the little giggle he earned from his spazziness.

The countdown began and they could hear the party growing louder as they neared number one. The two boys froze and looked at each other when the bell rang bringing in the new year. Thinking about all those movies in which couples kiss on new years made Vernon’s ears grow hot. The fireworks began and even then their eyes stayed trained on each other sharing some kind of silent connection.

‘Oh yeah, Kwannie, can you get anymore cheesier?’ Seungkwan puffed out his cheeks finally breaking the intense eye contact. He was known to fall in love easily by his friends but by the looks of Vernon he was probably straight. Aka, he had a snowball’s chance in hell. Maybe he was sadden by this, or maybe he was already numb to this realization since Seungkwan had a perfect record for falling for straight boys.

Vernon was rambling on about really nothing in particular but the smile on his face made Seungkwan fall just that much more in love. Shit he thought. He barely met this guy yet he was already thinking about what theme for the wedding and what their first born would be named.

Seungkwan could hear his sisters calling for him and knew that if he waited around any longer they would see Vernon and try to get him number. He couldn’t risk that. So while Vernon droned on he made a break for it.

The blonde’s woes went unnoticed by Vernon was he was too into describing his novel he was writing to even notice that Seungkwan wasn’t even next to him. Upon this realization, Vernon pouted. Feeling ditched, he looked at the picture of the boy he learned was named Seungkwan, and smiled to himself at the sudden notification.  

Seungkwan: sorry dude, family stuff.

Seungkwan: your story sounds dope.

Seungkwan: maybe I’ll see you around sometime?

Vernon felt his heart warm as the thought of meeting Seungkwan again made him practically jump for joy. Little did they know that they would be meeting again very soon…..

“Wait. You’re attending Pledis High as well?!”

Entertainment-Centered

Hey hey! Not to be entirely cliche and start with the weather BUT it was gorgeous today after a rainy week. Living in Wisconsin and enduring the long winters is tough. I get so used to the snow that I legitimately forget rain is in the realm of precipitation possibility (LOL). Baby, Nugget, and I had a nice little family day. We saw my mom and step-dad, as well as Baby's grandfather. Spent a lot of time outside and now we are all a little sunburnt! Now I'm laying in my comfortable bed next to Baby, eating Halo Top ice cream while I do what I love: write. My content today involves a lot of different types entertainment. It wasn't planned, I swear.

Thinking about it, I haven't really listened to any music this week at work. I love music. I love it. But there are times that I get impatient with listening to music. I’m not sure what it is, but work can be very slow overnight and listening to music when it's slow makes me almost more impatient. I’ve turned to listening to podcasts instead when I feel like this. Stuff You Should Know is my favorite podcast I have listened to so far. I think it's because there are so many random topics to choose from. These two guys, Josh and Chuck, will take any topic and research the heck out of it before recording a very interesting podcast about it. Topics range from what happens to the brain during an orgasm to "How Meth Works" to frogs to "How Hang Gliding Works." I personally gravitate towards the podcasts they do about real life murder mysteries. Josh and Chuck are funny and easy to listen to, so if you need to switch up your auditory entertainment and are down to learn something, give them a shot! I listen to Stuff You Should Know on my Spotify but you can listen to them on almost anywhere that you find podcasts in general. They also have their website you can check out. I hope you like them as much as I do!

Now. For TV. It is hell trying to get me to commit to a TV show. They are long and such a time investment. I feel better watching movies. They are shorter and less involved, obviously. But my mother had been HOUNDING me to watch Younger on Hulu. It didn’t sound bad or anything but it took me a year to actually do it and I only started it because I was sick and home during the day, alone and bored. For someone who isn’t easily hooked on shows, I LOVE Younger. Hilary Duff is in it! It's about a woman in her 40's who lies about her age to get back into the workforce. I know it is based on a book and I researched it because I love reading. All the book reviews were okay at best, unfortunately. The 5th season is coming June 5th and I am so ready for it. Again, something I recommend! Baby enjoyed Jersey Shore back when it was on, which... Who didn't watch it? My parents even watched it! I watched it in high school myself, but more so to make fun of it, but nonetheless I know the show's previous drama and such. So, now that the reunion of Jersey Shore is in full-swing, baby is all about it. Rather than reject watching it with him or at all, I will watch it and I will enjoy it. Mostly because I like to have things to discuss with Baby. Things we both are watching, reading, listening to, etc. It’s just nice to both be involved in some things together. That is something else I would recommend; sharing interests with your partner. You don't have to do everything together, but sharing a hobby or watching a show together creates quality time. Jersey Shore is light and easy, something Baby and I could use lately. Not to mention, the show is pretty funny.

READING! It's not everyone's favorite, which makes me a little sad. I have always been into books. I missed reading my own books so much when I was in college. There was absolutely no time for it. Now that I graduated, I've been on a Christopher Pike binge. I love this author. He has been writing mystery fiction books for kids and adults since the mid-1980's, I believe. I love all things retro, especially the 90's. All his books are relatively short, easy reads, but keep you hooked until the end. I recommend them if you can find them! Pike has a popular series called Thirst about a vampire. It's not the typical, cheesy vampire stuff. I really like how he executed the vampire genre because its easy to fall into the Twilight type of feel, but Pike did not (in my opinion). The main character is a woman and she is kind of a badass. There are 5 volumes in the series, totaling to 9 actual books (it's been condensed into volumes). It's sold for the cheapest on Amazon, add it to that cart. I know you wanna.

I'm going to end with my weekly win. I wouldn't say that it was a bad week. There were some good days and some rough ones. Female hormones can be very powerful, I'm sure you ladies know. Arguments still happen in the healthiest relationships, stress still gets to the happiest people. It was a long week, but I was given the moment that made it all better. Baby was playing with Nugget on the floor in our bedroom while I was working on my blog earlier this week. They were playing and laughing and I was happy to listen. All of the sudden, Baby got up and sat at the foot of the bed, his back away from me. He told Nugget to come to him because he had something to tell him. He said, "We love Sabrina very much, don't we? We are going to take really good care of her and protect her. I want you to know that Sabrina is going to be in our lives forever. How does that make you feel?" Nugget yelled, "HAPPY!" Baby couldn't see me but I cried. Moments like that are when I realize the many highs are worth the few lows. Let me be clear though: none of the lows this week had anything to do with Nugget, and they rarely do. He is an outstanding little boy and is incredibly well-behaved. I am blessed with that, but it is still hard to help raise a child that is not yours. There are toes you try not to step on and lines you try not to cross, but you should be most concerned with what is best for that little human, regardless of anything else. Stress and anxiety were fluctuating like crazy this week, but that moment was a big one for me and it melted all the negative away. What was your weekly win? Was is an accomplishment? An epiphany? Or was it a moment like mine? Comment away!

Next up: FOOD THINGS. But I gotta go now, Baby is singing goofy things to me and I'm all happy after talking about that moment with Nugget. Cuddle time. Good night!

Archived Post: Ask a Husband #2: The No Spouse Rule

This post was originally put up on a portion of the site that no longer exists. The content that was on there has been archived for the past few years, but I decided to put it up rather than let it rot for eternity. This is the second of these archived reposts. You can start from the first one here.

Ask a Husband #2: The No Spouse Rule

Recently, however, at a similar group event where the rest of us had again followed the “no spouse” rule the same person who had been adamant about this rule for all get togethers brought his significant other along.  How can we speak to our friend about being hypocritical and rude to our significant others without attacking him? Sincerely, Spouseless”

Inviting or excluding significant others is always a touchy subject. It starts when we are teenagers, waiting all day to hang out with our best friend after school, only to be devastated when he brings his new girlfriend along and you spend the whole day uncomfortably trying to play Halo as they dry hump each other two feet from you in your parents basement. It's like f&k you Steve, I wanted to beat The Maw on legendary today, not spend four hours avoiding eye contact with the boner lump in your sweatpants.

Even into adulthood you run into it from time to time. My wife gets invited to weddings without a plus one every once in a while even though we're married presumably because the couple to be is trying to keep head count under control. If we're being honest in this situation, this is fine with me as I have no interest in attending Janet the HR person's wedding so that I can spend three hours at the weird leftovers table with someones socially awkward work friend Peg, the bride's asthmatic cousin Barry with the lazy eye and sweating condition, and a suit jacket that sits by itself on an empty seat all night because whoever was assigned to that spot did the smart thing and got the hell out of there.

I guess what I'm saying is that in all stages of life, sometimes there is going to be friction over when you do or don't bring along significant others.

That being said, this seems like it is much more commonly going to be a dating conundrum than a married person one. Married couples tend to have integrated into each others respective groups of friends, so it becomes less of an issue as opposed to when you are just dating someone, especially if it is a new relationship. Even so, I get the appeal of the no spouse rule on occasion for everyday social situations. Sometimes you just need a night with your friends minus significant others, it's healthy.

Now, it seems in your particular situation we're looking more at boyfriends and girlfriends as opposed to spouses. When you throw significant others into the mix with a group of friends, especially a 'new' significant other where they don't know anyone besides the person they came with it changes the whole dynamic of the group. Sometimes that's fine. In the sage words given to us by the Spice Girls "If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends". If a significant other is going to be around for a while, they've got to become familiar with the group at some point, otherwise you end up with that friend nobody sees anymore because his new girlfriend or boyfriend is dominating all their time. Still, sometimes you just want to go bowling or something with the old gang.

I don't know any of the people involved in this situation, so I can only speak in the most general of terms and operate on some basic assumptions. 

The first basic assumption that I am making is that your friend is pretty much a good guy and not a raging self-centered douche scooter. With that assumption in mind, I don't see the request for the no spouse rule at the first gathering as totally out of the blue. As I mentioned, sometimes it's nice to just hang out with the old gang, and really nobody wants to be the only one at Applebee's who can't order the 2 for $20 because he's by himself. Is it maybe a little selfish to institute the no spouse rule if the rest of the group isn't really down for it? Sure, but I can sympathize with being socially uncomfortable as the odd man out. I feel for the guy, so I can't get too bent out of shape over it.

Now the second get-together is maybe a little harder to justify. To play devil's advocate, I guess I can understand after having been the only single guy in the group and now finally having a boyfriend or girlfriend to bring along he was excited to show them off to his group of friends. It's mildly annoying but really I guess it depends on the fit of this new significant other in to the group. If they turn out to be awesome and get along with everyone, no harm no foul for the most part. If they are an insufferable mule that makes everyone want to slam their hands in a car door so they have an excuse to leave early not so great.

As for how you proceed with this friend, I'd like to introduce you to a philosophy by which I try to live my life. A philosophy that I believe keeps me from being an insufferable piece of garbage in many situations where folks tend to take the aforementioned human garbage route. I always ask myself "Is the aggravation of pressing this issue worth the potential reward, versus just letting it go?" 

Let me give you a few examples from my own life of the application of this mantra:

I used one of those photo printing kiosks you see in drug stores or Walmart to print up a few pictures that my wife wanted to frame. On one of the pictures, the printer screwed something up and left a black ink smudge across the center of the photo. I could have gone back to the store, shown the incorrectly printed photo to them, asked for a refund and had the pictures redone. Or, I could eat the $2.14, not have to fight with anybody, and just reprint that picture. I did not consider the reward of maybe $2.14 and some sort of pointless moral justice for my screwed up picture worth the inevitably awful interaction I would have had to have with an employee. I just reprinted the picture.

An additional example: Once something malfunctioned with our cable and took out our TV and internet service. I spent an hour on the phone with customer service troubleshooting before it was determined that a technician was going to need to come out and replace hardware. When it was all said and done, by the time they were able to get someone out to us, we were without TV or internet for three days.

I love my wife dearly, but there is no reward too small for her not to go through any amount of headache in the pursuit of justice. She insisted that I call our service provider and demand a refund for the time we were without cable.

To break that scenario down, I would have started this process by spending a minimum of an hour on the phone, most of it likely listening to hold music as I resisted the urge not to bite through my tongue and bleed to death rather than listen to another second of a synthesizer rendition of "I'm sailing away". Once I finally reached someone I would then have to petulantly demand that I be reimbursed for my inconvenience. I would be making this demand to someone who has likely already had this conversation approximately eighty-seven times today and gives exactly zero fucks. After all of that, presuming that I don't walk away empty handed and get I my reimbursement what have I actually won? If I pay $140 bucks a month for cable, I'm paying roughly $4.60 a day which would come out to a whopping $14 reimbursement for the days we were without service. Thanks, but I'll take not ruining my evening for maybe getting fourteen dollars or maybe getting politely told to go fuck myself by Verizon's customer service associate and have the recording of it immortalized for quality assurance purposes.

Now, apply this principle to this trouble with your friend. You may have a different barometer for your hassle/reward ratio than I do, but were I faced with this situation, at least where it came to the two get-togethers already passed, I would just let it go.

At best it goes well and you have a decent conversation with them about it, but still ends up being a whole thing. You can't get away with just texting them "Hey Ur GF can't hang with us anymore LOL!" and be done with it.

At worst they get offended and defensive and everyone gets dragged into a fight about it. A poorly handled no spouses rule violation helped break up The Beatles, don't let it happen to you and your friends too.

In all reality probably the best thing you can do is let what is done be done and take a proactive approach for future outings. Knowing that this friend has a history not quite getting the memo just realize you've got to be extra clear with them on expectations going forward.

If you do find yourself in a situation where this person is the dissenting voice in the group on if significant others should or should not invited along, avoid terms like "hypocritical" or "rude" even if they may be fitting. If you put someone on the defensive, they often shut down and you get nowhere with them.

Demonstrate that you understand their point of view and offer them your alternative. Try to make your points focused around the group as a whole rather than singling this person out as a problem. If you can win them over to the rest of the group's way of thinking without making him feel like you lectured him or hate his partner's stupid face it'll make life a lot easier for everyone.

If the group is looking for a "no spouse night" let him know that you all still like his significant other and would love to plan something soon for everyone, but that tonight other folks have already worked it out with their own significant others and you'd like to keep to the plan this time.

If its the other way around and he's pouting about significant others tagging along, make it clear that there will be plenty of opportunity to have a "just the gang" night, but it's important to welcome the partners of members of the group into the fold as well. 

As I said before, this all operates under the assumption that your friend is not a rabid uppity twit and is capable of being reasonable like an actual person. I don't know him, so maybe he is in fact a giant bag of assholes. If that's the case my advice is the group just tells him to jog on.

Good luck, and may all your future outings be trouble free.
