5 Minutes More

Chapter 21

"Meet me outside of school when school ends." Cameron texted me when I was half way through the longest 10 minutes of my life in History class.

I tilted my head to the side, shaking my head gently at Cameron.

For heavens sake, he was siting right next to me. Couldn't he just pass random anonymous notes like everyone else.

On my right sat Victoria. Her hands were busily jotting down notes. Her eyes attentively glued to the white board.

Brooklyn who sat right behind Cameron was busy as well. Busy sleeping and snoring.

The bell finally rang, everyone let out a sign of relieve leaving their seats.

"Mr Brooklyn Victor. What are the assignments that you're suppose to hand up tomorrow?" The teacher blocked him from exiting the class.

He grunted in annoyance.

Then Victoria who happened to stand behind him whispered softly to him.

"Erm, to do research on World War II and about Hitler?" He repeated.

"Evidentially you've master the way to listen to my class while sleeping." She said sarcastically. She moved aside letting him leave.

"I'll cash that word of thank you right now." Victoria said as soon as they were far enough from class.

"I don't owe you anything. Besides I didn't ask for you help." Brooklyn looked at her in annoyance.

I stood there in between both of them. Awkward.

"So... What are we doing today?" I changed the topic.

"Yeah, let's just wait till Skylar gets here." Cameron pulled out his car keys walking to his car.

"Sorry, but the teacher forced me to stay back to sweep the classroom." Skylar caught up with us after 10mins.

"You should have called me so I could help you." Kevin grunted in disappointment that he couldn't help Sky.

"Anyways, out of the generosity of Brooklyn, today the largest candy shop downtown is for us to raid." Cameron announced excitedly.

"You rented the candy shop for a whole day just for me." I said surprisingly.

"Yeah... Totally, I wasn't even for a second thinking about how me, Cam and Kevin can start a full on heart shape Hershey cannon war there." He grinned as he twirled his car keys around his fingers.

"Can I go?" Victoria expectantly asked?

"No." Brooklyn replied immediately.

"Yes." Skylar retorted.

"I'm sure she's way to busy running her campaign for being school president. Or saving homeless dolphins." He teased.

"Fine. Selena. Since today is your day. You choose." Skylar ignored Brooklyn.

I blanked out for a moment before lightly nodding.

"Awesome." Victoria softly cheered.

"Selena. My car. Skylar, Kevin's car. And erm Victoria..." Cameron then slowly turned his head towards Brook.

"Hell no."

"Can you stop making everything so difficult." Skylar fought back.

"Can you shut up." This time Brooklyn's facial expression turned deadly.

"Please?" Victoria pulled the edge of Brooklyn's tee shirt. "I promise that I won't touch anything."

Brooklyn ran his fingers through his hair frustratedly. "Fine. But if you see lingerie on the front seat, don't go crying to the mountains." He smirked.

"Why would there be lingerie...?" Victoria innocently asked.

"Let's just say I do plan on returning it, but at the moment I just don't know whether it belongs to Taylor, Maya, Alyson or Katy." He strutted to his car.

"Ew. Now I'm beginning to regret my decision." Victoria followed behind.

We pushed the candy shop doors opened to be greeted by wonderland.

This was absolutely breathtaking. Could you imagine a whole box of M&M's color coordinated. Like damn, this was instagram worthy.

"So Brooklyn how long will this shop be for us to raid?" Kevin said as he was munching off a bar of chocolate.

"Till 7pm. Then the workers will be here to pack our mess."

"Freaking. Awesome." Kevin replied, his eyes sparkling at the shop, thinking about all the damage he could cause.

"Girls against boys. First one to get shot by a taffy spray can loses." Brooklyn announced before running off finding some sort of weapon.

We all scurried to find some sort of weapon. I ran and found the place they stocked their taffy spray cans.

And the war began.

I had my back behind a shelve of gummy bears as I heard shouting and cursing from the other side.

"Eat that!" I heard Skylar shouting as sounds of taffy squirted out off her can.

"Damn girl. You're actually shooting your boyfriend first?" I heard Kevin retort back.

"If the boot fits." She pronounced each word clearly, flaming the fire.

"Now it's on. No more Mr nice guy." Kevin ran after her as she yelled for her life.

This is basically how we succeeded to trash the entire shop in an hours time.

By our last round we all looked like some Katy Perry extra in a Katy Perry music video.

Skylar had cotton candy stucked in her hair. Showing strands of light pink. Victoria had her face covered in whipped cream. While I didn't receive much damage. Maybe their going nice on me. But the worst I've gotten was being blasted by a gum ball

We were neck in neck with the guys, as our final round approached. We built our fortress out of a chocolate bar. Making our plan before making our final charge.

"I'll aim for Brooklyn. Victoria you aim for Kevin. And Selena you take Cameron down." Skylar informed us before giving us the signal to charge out.

She signaled with her fingers and we ran out one by one.

The firing of taffy spray cans started. Victoria failed to get Kevin as Kevin shot her first. And Skylar backed Victoria by knocking out Kevin from the game but causing her to get shouted by Brooklyn.

And now I'm the only one left. Goody me, it's two against one.

I stood there with my spray can, staring at Cameron. Kinda my way of silently saying don't shoot me. But Cameron raised his can, and shot... At Brooklyn.

Brooklyn's jaw dropped at Cameron's move. He fired his can at Cameron while screaming at him. "This is f-ing friendly fire!" He yelled.

But soon enough they laughed their way out of the predicament. Leaving no bad blood.

"Sorry, Brook. But it had to be done. It was my girl's day, and I ain't gonna ruin it for her." Cameron apologized as he was gobbling down a handful of gummy bears.

"Yeah. Yeah." Brooklyn swatted his hand at him. Indicating that he was over it.

I looked at Cameron happily and jogged over to plant a kiss on his forehead. "Thank you for letting me win." I thanked him.

"Thank you for being mine." Cameron clasped our hands together before pulling me towards him. Softly pushing his lips against mine as I tasted the sweetness of gummy bears from his lips and the delight of happiness from being with him.
