"Hey Nick," Leigh said. "Where's AJ's room? I need to check on Cordelia before we go."
"I'll show you," Nick said. He led her to the room between his room and Denise's room. He knocked on the door.
AJ opened the door. He had dyed his hair again. This time it was blue on the bottom with lime green tips. "Now that is really funky McLean."
Nick only laughed.
"Can I see Cordelia?" Leigh asked, as AJ ushered she and Nick into the room.
"Why?" AJ asked. He almost looked nervous.
"Because I want to ask about her day and tell her I'm going to dinner with Nick," Leigh said.
"I'll tell her," AJ said. "She's back there." He said quickly, pointing to the back of the room.
"AJ, what did you do?" Nick asked.
"What makes you think I did anything?" AJ asked innocently.
"Where's Cordelia then?" Nick asked.
"I'm right here," Cordelia said. She was wearing a black sailor's hat with Backstreet Boys written on the front.
"I'm going out to eat now." Leigh said.
"Okay." Cordelia said.
Leigh started heading out of the room. Once Nick closed the door, AJ and Cordy both heaved a sigh of relief. Then it opened again.
"Wait a minute. When'd you get the hat?" Leigh asked.
"AJ gave it to me," Cordelia said. "You like?"
"Wonderful, Darling" Nick said. "Leigh, we have to go. Our reservation is at 7:30."
"Okay." Leigh said. Once again, she headed out the door. She closed it, then 30 seconds later, opened it again.
"I really DO like that hat. Can I try it on?" Leigh asked.
"Why?" Cordelia asked.
"Because I want to see if it looks as goofy on me as it does on you," Leigh said.
"HEY!! I LIKE my goofy hat!" Cordelia said.
"Nick could you get that hat for me?" Leigh asked.
Nick easily grabbed the hat to reveal Cordelia's newly dyed hair.
"You are so busted," Leigh said in shock.
"What?" Cordelia asked. "Mom and Dad won't like it?"
"Blue and lime green?" Leigh asked. "No I don't think Mom and Dad will go for it."
"My hair, my choice." Cordy said.
"Oh, COME ON! You KNOW Mom and Dad will be pissed."
"It'll come out," AJ said quickly, stopping Cordelia from further worsening the situation.
"What? If she dyes it another color?" Leigh asked.
"No, two to three weeks," AJ said. "It's temporary."
"Temporary is one day!" Leigh exclaimed. "Two to three weeks is Leigh gets her ass kicked for letting her sister dye her hair!"
"I'll take full responsibility," AJ said.
Cordelia and Leigh both laughed. "That's funny AJ. So then I can get busted for letting my sister spend a day with a twenty-one year old, hair dying freak! No offense or anything."
"None taken," AJ said.
"You know, Dad would probably think AJ's gay," Cordelia said.
"What?" AJ asked.
"That's our dad and we love him," Cordelia said.
"Could you try to get her hair back to normal?" Leigh asked.
"Yeah, maybe our hairstylist can match her normal color," AJ sighed. "I don't believe you let her do that AJ," Nick said.
"Shut up Carter," AJ said.
"Okay, I'm gonna leave before I kill someone," Leigh said.
"Lets go to dinner," Nick said, taking Leigh's hand in his.
