Rachel's p/v
"Look at what I got!" Tyler hands me a bag.
"Oooh, what did you get?"
"Open and you shall see."
I take out a pair of mittens. "Aww, these are so cute!"
"They're yours."
I smile at him. "You got these for me?"
"I saw them at the store and thought they would look adorable on you. Please accept them."
"How much were they?" I say, looking for a price tag.
"That is disclosed information. The only payment that I will accept is a kiss."
I put the mittens on the bed and go on my tippy toes to kiss Tyler on the lips. He wraps his arms around my waist.
Someone opens the door. "We're leaving in 5 minutes!"
Tyler and I pull away. Bowie is smiling at us with Mary right behind him. Her outfit is cute, but she doesn't have white mittens on.She's wearing a monochromatic outfit. Light brown ribbed turtleneck, dark brown leather jacket, beige loose pants, light brown beret, dark brown platform boots, and a dark brown leather purse. The beret is cute, I'll give her that.
We're all on a trail walk that connects to a skating rink. Mrs. Holt suggested we'd try it out, but me and Darry beg to differ. Darry tried skateboarding, but Sabrina failed him. He tried rollerblading, but Raven failed him. I tried skate boarding but Darry failed ME. It's his fault that I'm afraid of anything that has the word "skate" in it.
"You guys, this is so beautiful. It's snowing!" Mrs. Holt twirls around. I stick out my tongue. That's snow alright. Tyler kisses me on the cheek. I hold his hands. Trying to keep them warm yknow.
"This is nothing compared to Maryland. I don't ever want to leave."
"I second that."
"You guys should see Canada. Now that's what winter should look like."
"You can never go a day without bragging about how rich you are huh?" Heath says. Ooh.
Mary scoffs. "Acting as if your family isn't made out of money."
"We live comfortably, but I don't go around talking about it."
"Who said I was talking about my wealth?"
"Guys, we came here to bond."
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Holt, but Heath is always the one to start it. I'm simply enjoying myself."
"Well the both of you can shut up. Can we go skate now?"
"No!" Darry and I yell at the same time.
"Well excuse me." Bowie sarcastically says.
"I propose we explore this trail a little more. What do you say guys?"
"I'm down."
"Me too."
"I three."
"Not fair, there's no more words to use!" Erica says.
Hector smiles. "Yo quiero ir."
"Moi aussi." Mary says.
"Now you guys are just showing off."
Tyler pulls me aside. "Hey."
I smile. "Hey."
"Do you want to ditch everyone and stay here a little longer?"
"Sure, but we should tell them, right?"
"We can do that, or we can just follow them very very slowly."
"Sounds good. I need you to carry me though because I didn't bring the right-"
Tyler picks me up and walks over to a nearby bench. I stand on it and jump on his back. He takes off.
"Shoes." I finish.Mary's p/v
Erica takes a bite out of her muffin. "Bon appetite. Hah! I said it first."
I grab my phone and take a photo of my coffee, and a few books that I picked up on the way to the cafe. I also love that Audrey's incense is just laying effortlessly on the table.
