"Are you sure about this Minho?" Robyn whispered to the runner with her arms crossed, watching as he lifted the bucket above the shower door.

Minho steadily balanced the bucket, carefully removing his hands so he was no longer supporting it, "Ahh perfect" He clapped his hands together then turned to face the shorter girl, "What do you mean?"

Robyn frowned and frantically looked around the four walls. All the boys were busy doing their jobs and getting on with the usual work, whilst these two, were once again causing chaos in the glade. It was no surprise that they were known as 'double trouble'.

"I mean do you not think we have gone too far?" Robyn's lips quivered as she mumbled to her best friend.

Minho shook his head and scoffed, "Seriously?"

His deep brown eyes stared into Robyn's for an uncomfortable amount of time. Her soft hazel eyes pulled away, looking down at her feet which were sliding around in the mud, "I mean it's Gally, Minho"

The runner tilted his head, "Annnnnnd?"

Robyn shook her head in annoyance, whilst raising her voice, "Are we thinking of the same person here?"

"Woah, keep it quiet" Minho grabbed the top of her arm and pulled her away from the shower door. He dragged her along to the side of the small hut, and peered carefully around the corner, "I know this is Gally, but trust me. This is our best plan yet"

Robyn lifted her head up, noticing the large grin of his face. It was enough to put her at ease and finally see the fun side to one of their many pranks.

"Double trouble time" She lifted her hand out to which his slammed his down, creating a stinging sensation to run through it, "Hey, no need!" She scolded.

The boy cheekily giggled before whispering, "Sorry"

Robyn rested her hands onto the wooden hut, peering her head around the corner. The bucket of mud still rested steadily on top of the rusted door, ready to fall down onto Gally once it was opened. Robyn couldn't wait to see the look on the builder's face once he stepped out of the showers only to be covered in thick, brown sludge.

"You did see Gally go in there, right?" Robyn slowly turned back, still having doubts about their plan.

"Of course i did" Minho furrowed his eyebrows.

"100%?" Robyn looked into his eyes, a worry filling her body.

"Yes Robyn!" Minho defended, shaking his head with a faint smirk, "Trust me"

"I trusted you with my toast and you burned it!" Robyn's eyes widened.

"That's toast, this is a prank. Two different things" Minho raised an eyebrows.

"I still trusted you" Robyn exclaimed, making Minho look at her with a confused expression.

"You worry me sometimes. It was one slice of toast and i did make you more afterwards to say sorry" Minho looked at his best friend with a small smile.

"I wanted the first slice" Robyn rested her head onto the hut gently, trying to create as little noise as she could, "I was hungry"

Minho let out a quiet laugh in disbelief. Sometimes he questioned his decision to become friends with the glade princess, after all she wasn't a straightforward person. But deep down, that's what he liked about her, no matter how many times he tried to deny it. A complicated person is much more better than a straightforward person in Minho's eyes. He liked the challenge of Robyn, so ultimately, he wouldn't change their friendship for the world, because he cared for the girl too much. She made life in the glade a better place and no one could argue with that - not even Gally.
