Room 512, early Friday evening

[gobrookeyourself]

Brooke took her time getting ready, which was because most of it was spent either making sure she was wearing exactly the right push-up bra for the dress, and making sure her eye makeup was mask-proof. But at least she knew she looked fantastic, mutual stag date or not.

...That really did sound kind of dirty.

[For Peter, though the roomie's welcome to ping in before. Oh, and door's closed.]

Michael was also busy getting dressed. He'd got as far as the pants and shirt, and was now wishing he'd paid more attention to exactly how Isabel did his tie up when he bought it.

It kept getting tangled in knots.

Brooke looked over from where she was mascaraing, asking, "New to the tie thing?"

"Never had call to wear one before", he admitted, frowning at it in the mirror.

[gobrookeyourself]

"Here, let me help," she said, standing up to head over to him.

He certainly wasn't refusing, stepping back and turning slightly to give her better access.

"Thanks."

[gobrookeyourself]

Brooke went to work on the tie, having absolutely no problem with it. "Hot date, huh?"

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"Taking Hoshi to the dance", he told her. It translated to 'hot date' in its way?

[gobrookeyourself]

"I don't think I've met her," she said, thinking about this. "She cute?"

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"She's in my Mythology class", he said helpfully. "Yeah, she's pretty cute."

[gobrookeyourself]

As rave reviews went, that wasn't exactly one, but maybe it was in Michael speak. She pulled her hand away, patting him on the arm and saying, "Don't you look dapper."

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

It actually was. He didn't do overstatement.

He grinned, a little embarrassed. "You think?"

[gobrookeyourself]

"Definitely," she said. "You're gonna knock cute girl dead."

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"You too. For... whoever you're going with."

[gobrookeyourself]

"Peter Petrelli," she said, heading back to finish up on her makeup. "Also known as Hard to Get Peter on my radio nights."

[rebelheartalien.livejournal.com]

"Heh. Not so hard to get anymore, then?"

[gobrookeyourself]

"It's a friend thing," Brooke corrected. "Trust me, the name applies."
