We sat down at the lunch table. "Robbie!" I heard Cat yell. "I want to live. There's things I never tried. Things I really, really, really want to do." "What do you really, really, really want to do?" Tori asked Robbie. "UH, ride a pony. Take a cooking class." Robbie said. I took a sip of my drink."Other things." Andre pulled out an ice cream from his book bag. "Just ice cream?" "Uh-hu." "That's what you're gonna eat for lunch?" "Nope. It's been in my locker all day, so I'm going to drink it." "Why?"

"Cause I wanna meet Kesha." "Who the hell is Kesha?" I asked. "A celebrity that I want to meet." He licked some of the ice cream off of something. "Ah, dang it." He yelled. "Kesha's not in there?" I asked. "No, I got another stupid "K." Andre said, throwing the K. " Is this about the contest?" "What?" "Well, Kesha's dining things with lichter's ice cream."

"See there's a letter at the bottom of every pint." "Uh, You either get a "K," An "E," an "S," an "H," or an "A." "And if you find the letter that spell "Kesha,"you win a private concert." "I don't like this private thing." I said.

"From Kesha?" "Yep." "So far this week I've eaten 11 pint of ice cream, and all I've gotten are 11 "K"s." Andre said, throwing the container. "Robbie let a bunch of kids eat me." Cat said." "It's not my fault if dream children find you delicious." Robbie said leaving. "Hey, Tori, I need your opinion."

"On?" "Well, let's say a person made a deal with someone." "What kind of deal?" "You know, like they promised to do something. Should that person have to keep their word?" "Yeah. A deal's a deal." "Even if it was like ten years ago?" "Yes, you have to keep your word. No matter how long ago it was." "I'm so glad you feel that way, 'cause maybe you remember this from when you were six and I was seven. " Trina said, handing Tori a piece of paper. "I remember this." Tori said.

"Just read it." "Oh, okay." "When I, Tori Vega is 16 years old, I will be married to a handsome prince, and we shall live in a magic sugar castle." " That didn't happen." Andre said. "I know that didn't happen." "Yeah, and read what you said you'd do if it didn't happen." "I will be Trina's assistant and do whatever she says for a month." "That's right!" Trina yelled. "So? I wrote this when I was six." "Yeah, and who was it who said you have to keep your word no matter how long ago it was?" "Martin Luther KIng?" Cat said. "No, Martin Luther King gave a speech about having a dream."

"I had a dream. Kids ate me." "That must have been cool." I said. Cat looked at me like I was a monster. "Don't worry, Tori. I am not gonna be unreasonable." "Will you guys tell her she's being ridiculous?" "Well, you did make a deal." "You did say a person should keep her word." "Thank you, Tori's friends." "Dang Tori you got played." I said laughing. "You know what? Here's a list of things you need to do for me." "But I don't.." "I'll have another list for you in the morning. Boo-bye." Trina said leaving. " I have to pluck her toe hair?" Tori said. I smiled.

*Time skip*

We went to Tori's house and Tori had just got a new toy. Andre was eating some more Ice cream and I was playing with Tori's new toy. And eating some cereal. "Hey. Look at me." I said to Andre. "What do.." I pushed a button and the rocket hit his face. Tori laughed. "Yeah, Six for six!" I said dancing in the chair. "And how is this fun for me?"  Andre asked.

"You get to be the target. Which means..." Tori was explaining but Trina called her name. "Ugh!" "What?" "I want something." Tori got up and went to her sister. "How can I assist you?" "I don't like this song. I need you to change it." "Your phone is right next to you." "Yeah, but I have a pickle in this hand and a lipgloss in this hand." "Now change the song."
