He whistled as the driver wound through the streets, straightening his collar for the hundredth time. For some reason they kept getting messed up. It had been a busy pair of hours, since he'd realized rather rapidly that he didn't have any suitable clothing to wear for this, and he was waaay too tall for his dad's clothes.

At least he didn't have to iron it, and his mom had laughed when he'd told her what he'd needed the money for. She'd also, he realized rather belatedly, slipped a string of condoms into his jeans pocket. Which was embarrassing, but at least he knew where she stood on the subject.

Being a gentleman and a realist, he got rid of all but one. If one was insufficient, which he highly doubted, they could get more. If it was one too many, at least it wouldn't make his pants look funny.

He fidgeted with his collar again as they neared the address. He hoped she was as nice as she'd seemed on the message board. It was no fun taking mean girls dancing. Of course, he could always leave if she were too bad, but that would be rude.

He laughed at himself a little, and shook his head. "One thing at a time, self. It's just dancing, not chess."

	Lulu was pacing outside her shop. She lived right above, and one of the first things she'd done after arriving had been to buy clothing. Party dresses were part and parcel of her wardrobe, so it didn't take her long to dress up. Her hair was down, a rarity for her - and she folded her arms as she paced. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	The cab stopped in front of the shop, and Marius grinned, hopping out. He looked good, and he knew it. She looked really good too. It simply made him smile more. "Good evening, Lulu. I hope you weren't waiting out here long." He motioned to the cab, holding the door for her, though, of course, it was staying open by itself, at this point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She sized up the young man in front of her and smiled to herself. He was handsome, but more than that, he actually looked sweet. "No, not long, thank you." She was glad she'd worn a moderately short dress as she got into the cab. Her old dress would have been stepped on. Scooting over to the side, she looked over at him. "So, Marcus, where are we headed?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smiled and gave told the driver the address, before turning to his companion. "We're going to Angelou's. It's a pretty good dance club in the city. Lot of Rock and roll music played by a real live orchestra. It's pretty awesome." He beamed at her. "But nowhere nearly as awesome as you look." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lulu's cheeks went fairly pink. It had been a long time since someone had paid her a compliment. She was a capable woman, and she had been praised for that many times. "Thank you. You look quite handsome." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He blushed as well, and didn't bother trying to hide it. "Thanks. Have you eaten yet, or would you like to get dinner before we go? There's a very nice restaurant attached to the club, and I'm always hungry." He had a metabolism that made humming birds jealous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"We could eat beforehand." Lulu wasn't starved, but it would be wise to eat before she got to that point. Crossing her legs, she turned so she could look at Marcus a bit more easily. "So, tell me about yourself. What do you do here?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I just got here. I'm a time traveler, you see, and I came back in time to help my parents set up their business. So a lot of babysitting and sightseeing, mostly." He didn't see any point in lying. She'd believe him or she wouldn't it didn't matter to him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lulu blinked. "That's why you said your age didn't matter, then? Because you can be from the future and be older or younger as the situation calls for, no?" She smiled a bit to herself, wondering where she'd go if she could travel in time. "It's kind of you to help your parents. Are you babysitting yourself? That could be odd."
