Four Best Friends 2: A New Perspective

Chapter 11: A Day Off

My curiosity was getting the best of me. Where has he gone? I could go look for him, but on the other hand he could get mad at me. Our house isn't that big. Let me just take a peek...

[ Time skip to "The Boy's" House ]

We pulled up to their house. It was pretty nice with flowerbeds out front and the lawn was nice and green. Compared to my tiny apartment it looked like a mansion. Wolfie had told me that it was nothing like Secret's house; We never went to his though.

Now that I think about it...

"Why don't we ever go to Secret's house?" I asked. We sat in silence in the car. It felt like icicles were hanging over our heads, ready to drop any second. Why did he go so silent?

"Um... I've never really thought of that." So he doesn't know either, huh? Well that's a mystery to be solved for another day.

Anyway Secret and Wolfie knew to meet us outside if we ever picked the up. They didn't seem in any rush until Secret came out.

His hair was a little unkept, which was unusual for him. Instead of wearing his signature sweater he was wearing a brown and red plaid vest and black slacks. He looked more ready to go to dance than laser tag.

Out next was Wolfie. He had a little, black, zip-up jacket and under that was a red shirt with bold letters. His hair was fine, unlike usual, and he had brown shorts on.

Wolfie basically had to push Secret out of the house, but he looked willing nonetheless. Wolfie open the door to the car and flung Secret inside, or at least that was how I imagined it.

"The little rascal wouldn't wake up." He said, wiping his hands. "To top it off he got dressed in that! I mean like who gets dressed up in fancy clothing to go play laser tag!" The white haired boy's cheeks suddenly had splotches of red on them. I kinda felt bad for him in a way...

"S-Sorry Ms. Bonnie..." He muttered and turned his head away. It made him look like a sad puppy who's lost his owner.

I waved it off though and the car hummed to life. We got gas on the way over here so there was not going to be a problem with that. Wolfie went along telling his usual stories. I swear they're fake though, I mean no man can have all those stories. Secret was humming quietly, fiddling with his fingers.

"And then we hiked up this big hill, like very big." Wolfie said, making clear gestures with his hands. "Then there was a bear waiting for us at the top! Can you believe that? A bear!"

Even Secret lift his head up in disbelief. No one was believing Wolfie now.

After that I basically droned him out for the rest of the ride. I occasionally had some small conversations with Secret but that was about it.

The sun was suing down through the window, making me flip down the little visor. Outside the window the tree leaves were swaying back and forth through the air, imprisoned to the tree branches that they're connected to.

After awhile we arrived at our destination. We pulled into a large parking lot, lucky enough to get a spot near the front of the building.

The building was painted black with bright neon letters depicting their logo "Demon Quest: Destroy you friends and pwn noobs all day long". Obviously the most family friends place we could find.

Eventually we all got out of the car and made our way to the front door. It was a lot darker inside than it was on the outside but that was just common sense.

Once we went in Foxy rushed over to the front counter and talked to the woman working there. The place was very noisy though. There was a lot of little kids jumping and running around near us. Maybe a birthday party?
