old money, no money ;

“Oh?” Penelope didn’t question it further and continued to dance, “It dancing is a sport then it’s the only one I actively participate in except for the occasional jog. Key word being occasional.”

“Oh for god’s sake, I’m not,” Penny said, “I’m speaking hypothetically. If I had anything to say about your writing, it would be about that not your opinions. Stop being so testy, I have better things to be doing than stroking your ego.”

“Well I just told you that I was crazy. If you don’t know that by now, the you’re just as crazy. Now come on. I have a new bikini that I’ve been looking for an opportunity to wear.”

“Sweetheart, I’m your boss. If I was going to critique anything it would be your writing style, not your opinions. And if I did disagree, I could just not publish it but I did so drop the attitude please.”

Penny laughed as they danced, “Well colour me impressed. You are pretty good.”

“Wait, are you crazy? I thought I was the crazy one in this friendship,” Penny joked.

“Is that ballet training I see?” Penny asked with a raise of her brow, “I’m impressed.”

Penny pouted but then sighed, “Alright fine,” She said and moved to the bar to order a drink.

“Fake it til you make it right?”

“Well then I can teach you,” Penny said with a smile, “Because I can think of nothing better than a day at the lake with my favourite boy.”

“Exactly! Nothing better than fresh water. I normally swam in pools growing up except when we went down to the lake a few summers but not often.”

“So you won’t even consider it?”

“Why? What happened to all the confidence from two seconds ago?”

“Okay well then what do you want to do, mi cielo?”

“Now who’s in the ninth grade?” Penny asked, taking the other’s hand and pulling her to dance, “Come on before the song finishes and we don’t get to enjoy it.”

“Are you saying you’re a grunge guy?” Penelope asked, raising a brow, “You ever let loose by trying something? Promise a dance with me would be worth changing things up,” She teased, “Okay well if something like that were to happen I’d be writing about it, not actually a part of it.”
