That One Friend Group (Remastered)

015. Good Plan

The walk there was pretty annoying, Ryder's phone was probably the worst part to be honest. But we made it, hardly. We entered the park because that's literally the only place to hang out and immediately the whole boy gang ran to the swings and jamp on. You see, there's only six swings and there's ten of us so four won't get a swing so some fight's going to go down. The boy gang already took up half of the swings and me and Jordan ran to get the other two. "Ah that's your fault you cow." Chris said to Penelope because he didn't get a swing, Destiny went up to Tayler and said something to him which made him allow her to get on his lap on the swing, it was really awkward to look at and the boy gangs faces looked traumatized. Penelope sat down at the side of the swings, accepting the fact that she isn't going to get on while Chris on the other hand started running around and shaking all the swings again but accidentally ran in front of Parker's swing at the worst timing possible and he went flying backwards and landed like a starfish and we all just started laughing at him. He got up and started shaking his swing roughly and he was going all over the place. "Ok! I'll get off, God." Parker said trying to get the swing to slow down from it's unusual speed. He got off and Chris threw himself on it and Parker came over to me. "Hey, come on we need to talk about it." He whispered in my ear and I managed to smell his breath which smelt like fish, that's Parker for you. I got off and Penelope ran and got on while me and Parker went under a tree to talk about what his plan is. "So, my plan." He started and I immediately cut him off. "I don't think it's going to work, sorry." I admitted and he gave me an offended look for not believing in his idea. "I'm sorry! But, to be honest your probably just going to pressure her into saying yes." It took me a minute to realize what I just said and then I corrected myself. "Actually, it's Jordan never mind." He nodded and pulled his phone out to show me his notes which he made and it looked like it went on forever. He went through it all and he seems really committed into doing this for her which is really sweet, the fact that he isn't scared to try again even after getting rejected just shows that he really loves her. I feel weird saying that but it's true. "I even drew a picture of the plan." He told me opening up his camera roll to show me a picture he took of his drawing which was made with crayons and a cup full of  apple juice in the background. I just pretended like I understood what it said because I couldn't work out his handwriting. "So?" He started. "What do you think?" I genuinely thought that it was a good idea and that it could work, I know I said that last time but this ones a little bit more planned and a lot more though and commitment has went into this. If they don't work out then my life is a lie. "Guys! Come watch this." Josh shouted over from the zip-line to me and him so we went over. "What?" I asked and he pointed at Chris. "He's going to die." Jordan said walking behind me. Chris was standing up on the zip-line and was about to go. Ryder pushed him with full force and he immediately fell off and we all laughed. I felt my phone buzz in my pocket so I took it out and looked at it to see it's from, Parker? He asked me to talk to Jordan and say a whole paragraph to her that he sent me. I took a deep breath and went up to her. "Hey, can I talk to you?" I asked her and she nodded, we went over to the same tree that me and Parker were under and I prepared myself to say it all. I gave her a full speech about what Parker said and I could tell that Jordan knew something was up. Dammit. "Ok?" She said confused and walked back over to everyone else who were still at the zip-line. I saw Parker staring and he looked happy but his smile quickly turned into a straight face when he saw that I didn't look to happy about her response. I went over and told Parker and he showed no emotion surprisingly. "Well, all we can do now is hope." He said calmly, I don't know why he seemed so calm about it and not freaking out in case she doesn't like him (which she doesn't and everyone knows that but him.).

Jordan's POV:

"Stella just said the weirdest thing ever to me," I was telling Josh about the paragraph that she said to me, I was so confused about the whole part of it. "What?" He asked looking worried about what I was going to say. "She basically asked when I was free next week and if I wasn't then I better be and she was asking if I own certain things and just acting really sus." I found it weird that I was telling Josh out of everyone but me and him are an iconic duo which we are trying to bring back. "You think it's got something to do with that depressed drumstick." He pointed at Parker and I knew that it might have had something to do with him. "I hope not." I said and he gave me a look telling me that it probably was. This'll be interesting.
