Michelle-forbidden entry!!!

Summary: Michelle and Ben reveal their Tumblr blogs to each other while on a costume party. Ben turns out to be Michelle's #1 Tumblr crush.

You'd think like in coming-of-age movies the only thing a woman needs to be less socially awkward is a grand makeover: eyeliner, lipstick, a really good foundation, and then WALLAH, you're suddenly one of the Popular Gurls.

But in real life if a socially awkward woman gets a grand makeover, she's just a socially awkward woman with prominent eyes, red lips, and even-toned skin. Much so for Michelle, who stands cluelessly in the middle of someone else's kitchen with so much makeup on because Pauline insisted she go as the Joker, which is frankly so smart but Michelle just doesn't quite see it right now, unfortunately.

"See," Michelle is saying, "It's not even fit for a Halloween Party."

Pauline rolls her eyes. "What? You wanna go as Alice in Wonderland? That's soooooo overrated, Mich."

"Well," says Michelle, and kind of looks around desperately to find something, or someone to prove one of Pauline's That's So Overrated! episodes wrong. It's always annoying, but Michelle totally loves Pauline because she's the best. "There!" she points out the window to the woman dressed up as Alice in Wonderland. She's grinning and swiveling her head around like she's looking for someone. Pauline looks at the direction of Michelle's pointy finger and watches along. "She's dressed up as Alice, see, and it looks good on her!" she says, still pointing, and when a tall boring-looking man approaches the Alice Woman, Michelle goes on. "Oh my God, and she's got a date."

"Oh and you care for dates now," Pauline huffs. "But-"

Pauline is cut off when Ben enters the kitchen, all prim and proper and sexy and oh my God, hot. He totally has lipstick on, and he's totally wearing a crop top saying 'Daddy's Lil Monster'. It takes a few seconds before Michelle realizes Pauline's deal, but by the time she turns around to smack Pauline's head with a fake gun with this weird little red flag that says 'BANG!', Pauline's already out of the kitchen.

"Oh look at you," Ben says when he notices Michelle in her ridiculous Joker outfit. "Wait, Pauline said I'll be the only clown here!"

Michelle groans, looking at the floor and slumping her shoulders a little. She should've just stayed home and scrolled through Tumblr AND talked to Mr. Charming Tumblr User, who she NEVER met once in her life but she's head over heels for him anyway. "You're Harley Quinn. You're dressed as Harley Quinn. A harlequin. Oh my God."

"Oh my God's the phrase, I look sexy don't I?" Ben smugs.

Michelle doesn't even know what to say to that. Or what to think of this whole thing. It's not like Ben's totally un-sexy, because no matter how hard Michelle tries to shut her mind up, it keeps coming back and telling Michelle that Ben's REALLY hot in his harlequin costume. She gets out of the kitchen for a while, promptly lounges out in the backyard to clear her mind, and then suddenly she's talking to Ben again. Only difference is that they're outside. UGH.

"It's not even my fault I'm in this stupid Halloween party, you know," Michelle says, digging her fingers through her hair in a fit of pique. "It's Pauline's! She told me it'd be - whatever. I miss Tumblr and I just wanna go hoooooooooooooome."

"Wait," Ben blinks. "You have Tumblr?"

"That's not the point, okay, because I'm so sick of this makeup and I just-"

"Wait! You should follow me in Tumblr, my name's Mr. Charming Tumblr User."

"Ugh, fine," says Michelle, and then it filters through her brain and her eyes widen like saucers. "OMG YOU'RE MR. CHARMING TUMBLR USER!!!!!!!!!!!"

"I...just said that? I'm not sure if that's eureka-worthy, Michy."

It's Michelle's turn to blink. Twice. "I'M MS. CHARMING TUMBLR USER!!!!!!!!"

Before Ben can reply to that, a sudden light flashes through the dark backyard and both Michelle and Ben look up. Pauline's lifts her head up from the camera and sneers. "This is so romantic, you guys, perfect for another MySpace blog!!! REEEE!"

"Pauline!" they both say simultaneously, but the three end up laughing anyway because it's funny and Pauline's OTP finally got together. The End. :DDD
