Flossie and I arrived at Dead Man's Curve. We found Sexy Blue there waiting for us. I think she had been there since the previous night. This contest must really excite her. Good. I sit down beside her to talk, while waiting for the new guy to show up. I do my best not to let my insecurities show, but I'm not sure I pulled it off. Oh well, what's a teenager without insecurities?
Finally, when I have just about convinced Blue to sneak off in the bushes for a bit, Alain shows up dragging an elephant behind him. My jaw drops when I see his elephant. The thing is frickin' HUGE!!! I've never seen an elephant that size before. I don't understand why the ground doesn't shake as it moves towards us. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all.
I stand up, trying to look nonchalant.
I say "'Sup?"
Alain says, "Nothin'."
I say, "Whatever."
Alain says, "It's cool."
I say, "Well, you ready?"
Alain says, "Born ready."
I say, "Let's do it."
Alain says, "'K."
I turn to jump up on Flossie. That's when I realize that Flossie noticed the new elephant, too. It seems that Flossie took a liking to her. He's presently assuming the mount position and getting down to elephant business. The air is full of the musky scent of elephant sex and a low rumble fills the air.
I'm not sure what to think about this. I suppose it's cool that Flossie has found someone to love, but I'm somewhat grossed out by the whole affair. I can't stop myself. I break into laughter. I'm quickly joined by Alain and Blue.
"Well, I guess we better wait 'til they're done, huh? Wonder how long elephants take with this kind of thing?"
