One thing that Yeji and Eli failed to remember was that clubs aren't just going somewhere after school every week, there's more to them. They got to make treats for homecoming and now they planned to give today's treats to the homeless, and after that for the next session they will begin to prepare for a big bake sale they are having the very next day for the big trip to Aspen, Colorado.
Every semester, there is a big trip for all of the clubs to take their members on. For most schools, it's only one trip that the school can afford, but with fundraisers and the money from the students' families Pacifico Academy gives its students two trips. However, it's always been for upperclassmen only, so juniors and seniors.
The first one is not as grand as the second one and it takes place the first week of winter break. Their winter break is three weeks long since they have their fall break in October, no break for Thanksgiving; only the day-of off. So their winter break was a week longer than most other schools, starting the week before Christmas
This allowed the students to go on the trip and still be back on time to spend Christmas with their families.
But it was only early October and they had a lot of money to raise, especially since they'd be staying at the Viceroy Snowmass and the Limelight Hotel Snowmass. At that time of year it will be hard to get bookings, so they need to raise money now and book the rooms as soon as possible.
This baking sale was going to be big, on Friday, they will sell on campus and over the weekend they were renting out a little store in the busiest mall in the area and everything. It'd be a busy weekend for the trio, Elijah, Yeji, and Ryujin. In the morning, Yeji and Ryujin volunteer to read to children at the public library and then they will do the pm shift for the fundraiser at the mall.
Tonight was the night before the first day of the big sale, so Thursday. Past the hours of the club, they all met at Elijah's house to continue making cupcakes, they felt like the demand would be very high since these cupcakes just look so gourmet and delicious and they're selling at the mall over the weekend, which is also the busiest time of the week for the mall.
"My mom loved this combination." Elijah smiled as he and Ryujin decorated a small batch of red velvet cupcakes with rich dark chocolate frosting. Ryujin had only even had red velvet with cream cheese frosting, though the thought of having it with rich chocolate didn't sound unappealing.
"Was it her favorite?" Ryujin smiled lightly, now she can think of Camilla every time one of these sells.
"It was, but she made it the best. I went by her recipe... maybe you should do the piping and I can decorate." He chuckled, putting the plate of cupcakes in front of the pretty girl.
"I agree with that." Ryujin chuckled back, having Eli hold the piping back as she put the frosting inside.
"And Ryujin?"
She looked up at him, "Hm?"
"I'm really sorry for trying to kiss you the other night. My mind was all over the place-"
"It's okay, E. I get it, we all react differently to things. You're going through so much right now, I don't want you to linger over that night longer than need be." Ryujin quickly dismissed him to reassure him that it was okay, as long as he doesn't try it again. "I'm really glad I have a best friend like you." She smiled at him.
Elijah smiled lightly, wondering if he will ever get this girl to like her. He knows that Yeji throws her at him every chance she gets. She even had Eli and Ryu decorate the cupcakes together knowing damn well she's better at decorating and he's better at preparing and baking the mixture, but it's just not working. He courted Madison in a month, but with Ryujin? We're going on almost three now.
