"HEY IDIOT"
Just then, something hit Michael's window. He got up from his bed, knowing it was Bobbi, he unlocked and pushed it open.
Before he could say anything she yelled again "MEET ME IN OUR TREE IN TEN MINUTES AND BRING YOUR POCKET KNIFE" then she ran away.
A giggle escape his mouth and he ran around his room trying to find his other shoe as well as the previously mentioned pocket knife.

Once he got to their tree in the woods, he saw that Bobbi had already made herself comfortable on her branch. They each had their own branch. And only shared in case of emergencies.
Michaels hands gripped the first tree limb and hauled himself up. As soon as he was settled on his branch Bobbi spoke up and a grin on her freckled face.
"So you're probably wondering why we're gathered here today"
"there's only us two"
"shut up, Clifford" Bobbi shot him a glare. "As I was saying... You're probably wondering why we're gathered here today. Well let me tell you it is of the uttermost importance!" her eyes scanned Michael's in hopes of a reaction of some sort "since everyone seems so excited to hear what I have to say I'll just go ahead and tell you"
Michael muttered under his breath
"I'll chose to ignore that," Bobbi cleared her throat and straightened her tank top, "I have come to a decision. Michael, I've known you for so long and I think it's time that we become blood brothers."
Michaels brow furrowed "blood brothers?"
"yes! blood brothers! isn't it a great idea?!"
"but like..." michaels voice got quieter "isn't that for like... just boys?"
Bobbi's eyes got wide "Michael Gordan Clifford! Blood brothers isn't just for boys! and besides, nothing is just for boys! everything is for everyone. that's what mom said!"
Michael grumbled a yes and let her continue to pitch her great idea
After lots of explaining that it won't (hopefully) hurt and that it really is what all best friends do, Bobbi convinced Michael to become blood brothers with her.
He handed her the knife and she cut a small slice on her thumb, she hissed a bit but slapped Michael when he whimpered at the sight. She then did the same to Michael's thumb.
"so now we like rub our thumbs together or something"
Michael did as told and giggled when Bobbi used a leaf to wipe up the tiny bit of blood. Then they both smiled at each other.
"now we're blood brothers"
Michael nodded "now we're blood brothers"
After that they jumped down from the tree and walked home, hand in hand.
