Stepping Stones

Chapter Seven (7): Undiscovered

Later that day we gave Vincent a proper burial. "Rest in peace, Vince. You almost murdered my friend, but everyone needs a proper burial, not just laying around somewhere. Even you need a proper burial." I say, nudging my mom signaling for her to say something nice. "U-um...Vincent, you were cool." My mom says and shuts up immediately afterwards. I glare at her. "What?! You said to say something nice!" She replies to my stare. "Vincent, you were pretty cool, but to me you were beautiful. I would've dated you if you wouldn't have tried to trap Jentrie." Josh says and looks at Jentrie, who has an angry look on her face. "Josh, you are not going to date him. That's Parker's job, ok?" She scolded him and shut up. "Um, ok. And that would've been gay anyway. I don't have a problem with gays though." He replied.
On the way home, we had to wash the car. It was only noon, so we had time to do something fun. We decided to drive home and make the car dirty for no reason. We got four buckets of water and mixed them with dirt, making really thin mud to splash on the car. Then we got two more buckets of water and put a lot more dirt in them to make very thick mud, to throw at the car. Jentrie and Josh poured the buckets of thin mud onto the car, covering it completely, and then we threw mud balls at the windows, almost making tiny dents in the car. After that we had a huge mud war, and it turned into throwing mud at the roof and accidentally breaking a hole in it. Yeah, yeah, we spent about an hour doing that. Blah blah blah.
After that hour of mud-fighting, my mom stepped out of the house and saw the car. By then it was about 3:00, and my mom decided to take the car to a car wash.
About 30 minutes later we arrived at the car wash. That's what we discovered that looks can be deceiving...
