••Vanellope's view••
The 4 of us sat on the bank of the lake.
I turned on some music before standing up on my towel that I was laying on.
I crossed my arms and grabbed the bottom of my shirt and started lifting it only to be stopped.
"OH MY GOD NO SKINNY DIPPING PLEEEEASE!!!" Tris and Andy squeaked at the same time.
I bursted into laughter as I took my shirt the rest of the way off, they covered their eyes before I finished though.
Oh well.
I slipped my shorts off.
"You guys do realize I'm wearing a bikini, right?" I chuckled.
Mismee was laughing hard the whole time, she had came home with me after school because her bathing suit hadn't for so I let her borrow one of mine, she knew I had it one because I went and put mine on in the bathroom before putting shorts and a t shirt on over it.
Andy and Tris's hands dropped...
We all burst into a fit of laughter.
679 came on. (Fetty wap song XD)
I laughed and started dancing.
Tris got up and started twerking.
"DAAAAANG TRIS!!! WTF? I THOUGHT WE HAD AN AGREEMENT! NO TWERKING IN PUBLIC!!!" Andy chuckled playfully shoving Tris as she got to her feet.
I laughed, I had been backing up because there was a bit of a drop off on the path, I chuckled at my devious plan, I pretended to slip and fall off- causing me o fall into the deep in, I screamed "I CANT SWIM!!!!!".
Andy screamed "HOLD ON!!!!"
She ripped off her shirt basically and threw it down along with her shorts, now only in her bra and panties...
Oh crap....
What?
Ok so that wasn't part of the plan.....
OH CRAP!!!
I went under having forgot about being in the deep end, I opened my mouth to screamed but ended up with a mouth full of water, and bubbles floating to the top, I thrashed wildly, I felt something wrap around me and drag me to the surface.
I broke the surface coughing, gasping, and vomiting water basically. NEVER. DOING. THAT. AGAIN.
"YOU B WITH A FRIGGIN ITCH!!!!!!!!"
Uh oh....
I was swimming when she let go of me....
I chuckled hoarsely "it was at first and then I forgot I was in the water and went under"
She slapped me.
OUCH.
"DONT EVER DO THAT AGAIN!!! I THOUGHT I HAD LOST YOU!!!!!" She screamed at me.
My eyes widened slightly "it was just a joke..." I whispered half to myself surprise.
There was something in her gaze, and a flash of something...
The same flash as the other one a lot of moths ago!!! Or was it a year now?
I nearly went under again.
Andy snarled "let's get you to the bank"
She basically drug me to the bank.
Tris looked at her phone "BRO NO!!!! NOOOOOOO!!!! UGH MY BROTHER IS JUST A HUGE FRIGGIN BRONY BRO NO!!!" She yelled "I gotta run guys! Mismee, Cmon!"
I frowned -Mismee lived on the same street as Tris so she always rode home with Tris because her car was a piece of crap, her words not mine- "awwww ok, see you tomorrow at school?" I asked as I was about to hug her but she pushed me away.
I remembered I was wet.
Oh yeaaaaaaaaah...
Tris nodded "now I gotta go so in not late!" She said dragging Mismee along.
* * * (3 hours later)
"so where exactly are we going?"
"You'll see!" Andy smirked
I sighed irritably.
"Here we are!" She said with a wicked grin as she walked towards it...
Omg
It's a friggin barn.
I WALKED FOR AN HOUR TO SEE A BARN.
LOVELY.
It was a big red barn.
Like old McDonalds barn or something , except it was missing the animals.
I was silent.
She chuckled "READY TO BE AMAZED MY FRIEND?!" She yelled happily still smiling wickedly.
I nodded slowly...
What was I getting myself into?
WHAT IF THIS IS WHERE SHE MAKES DRUGS AND SHIZ?! OMFG I DONT WANNA DIE BUT I DONT WANNA BE A DRUG DEALER!!!!!
She put her hands in between the two doors and shoved them apart.
OMG SHES TOTALLY ON STEROIDS AND MAKES THEM!!!!
She slowly walked in and flipped a big lever...
OMG
My mouth dropped at the scene before me.
There was tables everywhere with white table cloth draped nicely over them, little wooden chairs around the tables..
3 chandeliers spread out a few feet from each other hung form the ceiling, pretty lights scattered all over the roof..
It was beautiful...
I looked at Andy and raised an eyebrow, too flabbergasted to speak.
She smiled softly... Nervously..
"I-uh-erm... It helps me think when I'm here" she stuttered slightly and definitely awkwardly...
Although....
I smirked leaned against one wooden posts inside "lesbe honest, Andy, you like me! And you're taking me on a date!"
"I AM NOT GAY!!! AND DONT LESBE ME NELL!" She yelled throwing her hands into the air.
••Andy's view••
The corner of her smirk twitched downward ever so slightly for a mere split second, but I caught it.. She chuckled in attempt to cover it.
Was this a date?
No! You're not a les and you don't like her! Or girls for that matter!
You always know how to make me feel better inner voice don't you?
Yup.
I tilted my head slightly when a thought struck me out of the blue.
"Vanellope?" I asked softly.
She jerked her head towards me snapping out of her own thoughts..
"If you don't mind me asking.... Where are your parents?" I asked quietly barely audible.
She froze and her gaze shifted to the ground..
We sat in silence for about 10 minutes and 20 seconds.
But who's counting?
Not me of course....
"How do I put this in words" she mumbled under her breath and took a deep breath "I've never told anyone so this may not even sound like English" she said still looking away "ok so.... Where do I even start?" She chuckled...
It sounded so bitter...
It practically hurt me but I told myself it wasn't directed towards me.
"Figuratively speaking... Imagine two happy parents... Then the girl has a baby bump.... Then the girl gives birth to..... Basically the ugly duckling...... Then another kid appears... The ugly duckling one grows older, now wearing glasses,  and the other kid grew up too... Let's say about... 13.. The other child 9...." She swallowed, I could tell she was fighting back tears "then.... Another girl about the same age as the ugly duckling girl appears, they're holding hands... Suddenly the girl the same age as ugly duckling dissapeard and bruises and cuts appear on the ugly duckling, the mother and father frowning and standing away from her and close to the other original girl...... About a year later....... The father disappears... So does the girl..... A bottle appears on the mother... And the ugly duckling has more bruises and cuts, the mother smiling evilly, and the ugly duckling emotionless.......... Then two years later the mother disappears and there's another woman..." She said her voice cracking a lot more towards the end.
I stared her dead in the eye..
We sat in silence....
She said so little but it said sooooo much....
A frown etched on my face as I stared at her holding in tears....
She laughed softly "I guess you figured out who the ugly duckling is...."
"Vanellope?"
"Yes?"
"You're not....." I paused  for drama "A duckling"
She chuckled about to say down thing but I cut her off "or ugly, you remember how that story went? The ugly 'duckling' turns out to be a beautiful swan"
She smiled softly at me and opened and closed her mouth, looking like a fish kinda... She reached up an adjusted her sleek black glasses... Before twiddling her thumbs silently.
"I don't think you're beautiful" I said.
She stopped for a mere split second but continued with her thumbs...
"I think it's too much of an understatement to even call you it" i gently sat down in front of her and grabbed one of her hands and gently placed it between mien and kissed it.
she mumbled something.
"What?"
She said it a little louder..
"I can't hear you Nell"
She said it softly.
DANG THIS GIRL WAS ALWAYS FRIGGIN LOUD AF AND NOW SHE SOOOOOO QUIET LIKE WHAT THE HECK NELL.
I rolled my eyes softly.
"I SAID YOURE GOING ALL LES ON ME!!!" She yelled.
There was silence.
We both burst into laughter.
"Anyways, it's getting dark, we should probably be going home" she said getting to her feet.
