I push my way through the boys and see Gally pushing a boy out of the circle.
"Who's next?" Gally asks.
"Me!" I shout.
Suddenly someone grabs my arm.
Its Newt.
"Be careful ok" he whispers into my ear.
"Don't worry Newty Patootie i got this" I say winking at him.
He smiles.
I step into the circle.
"Greenie? You know just because your a girl doesn't mean i will go easy" Gally says pushing up his sleeves.
"I was hoping you'd say that eye brow boy" I say with a smirk.
He laughs, but then quickly runs to attack me.
I step to the side and he falls down.
Everyone is cheering.
He gets up and brushes of his pants.
He throws a punch at me but i grab his arm and flip him.
Everyone cheers.
"Ughh" Gally grunts.
"I'm not done yet Gal" I say in his face.
He raises an eyebrow and then kicks my leg so i fall on my face.
"CALI" someone shouts.
I get up and brush myself off.
"I see your eye brow game is strong"
He bursts out laughing.
"I-i'm sorry i can't fight Cali anymore. She's going to kill me with laughter." Gally says trying to catch his breath.
I laugh.
"I had you. I was going to win" I say.
"You already did" He said fist bumping me and pulling me into a side hug.
Everyone cheers and chants my name.
/////
Everyone in the glade is sitting in a circle around the bonfire, and only small talk was made.
"ANYONE WANNA SPICE THIS BONFIRE UP?" Alby shouts.
"CALI CAN SING" Thomas shouts.
"Slinthead" I say elbowing him in the chest.
"CALI, CALI, CALI" Gally starts.
"Eye brow boy don't" I say.
But then everyone joins in.
I whistle to shut everyone up.
"FINE" I say getting up.
"WAIT" Newt says running off.
He comes back with a boom box and a bunch of CDs.
"Here" he says smiling,"pick a song"
I smile at him.
I look through the songs and find the one.
Fine By Me by Andy Grammar.
