We've All Got a Secret (Cube Smp)

Part Fifteen- Corner Store

Ari's POV

Luckily, it was a Saturday and I didn't have to endure this thing that I dreaded called school.

And I didn't have to do anything today, I could relax, and have the whole day to myself. Since everyone was out of the house, it was quiet. Which I didn't mind.

I was hiding in my room, like usual, browsing my computer. I got a text as I clicked off tumblr.

From: Willy Shakes~ up to record my main dude?

From: ARRRRG-I ~ most definitely.

I clicked onto Minecraft and my TeamSpeak made the noise that someone had joined my channel. "Wassup?" I asked.

"I'm bored and recording is my solution." Will said.

"That sounds like a perfect plan, become un bored and get some work out of the way. You up for some Draw My Thing?" I asked him.

"Let's do it." I could hear the smile.

After a few minutes of getting ready and a random chat between Will and I, we were finally ready to begin the video.

"So, what am I even suppose to call you in these?" Will asked.

And it struck me, they knew my name now, so it didn't matter if I kept a secret. "Whatever works. You call me Ari at school so might as well keep it that way." I shrugged.

"Sounds good." He coughed a bit. "Hi guys it's Ari here and I am with my most bestest friend in the whole world, Will, and we're going to play Draw My Thing!" Will had made his voice super high pitched and tried to talk like me.

"That is not how I sound!" I argued with him.

"I thought I was pretty spot on." And the game begun. Surprisingly, I was the first to draw.

Unicorn it read.

"Oh, Will, this is gonna be so great." I said and we began to get into the usual weird talks we have. Most of it went along the lines of you're a horrible drawer! And what even is that!

I don't do much on Saturday nights. I don't go to parties, I'm a gamer, not someone who actually leaves the house.

So on Saturday nights I'm usually hiding in my bed watching Netflix or YouTube, or even editing a video. That's what I find fun, and I really enjoy it.

And that was going to be my plans for tonight, well, until I got a bunch of texts, from the same person.

From; PERKER
ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI DO YOU WANT TO COME HANG OUT WITH SOME OF THE COOLEST GUYS ON THE BLOCK

ME AND TYBZ

WE ARE PRETTY AWESOME

AND BORED

AND WE KNOW HOW YOUR SATURDAY NUGHTS USUALLY GO SO COME HANG OUT WITH US

ITLL BE FUN I PROMISE.

From; ARI ARI ARI ARI ARI
Come to my house in ten and I'll hang with you guys.

And so I was forced out of my bed and got dressed out of my pajamas in a random t shirt and some black jeans.

And for sure, in ten minutes, Parker and Michael were standing on my porch waiting for me to walk out. "Where are we headed?" I asked the boys.

"It's a surprise." Parker smiled.

"Oh no.." I rolled my eyes with a laugh.

"Wait, are we walking?" I asked them.

"Of course, it's not even that far away." Michael replied.

I groaned out of laziness, and followed the two boys who I call some of my best friends.

After minutes of walking, we reached some store. "Have you ever been to the corner store?" Michael asked me.

I shook my head. "Don't think I have." Followed by a shrug.

"Well, welcome to the place where Tybzi and I stall time. They have the best ice cream and an assortment of awesome chips. Along with some little knick knacks you might insist that you need." Parker said as he opened the door and a bell rang.

"Sounds great." I giggled a bit as we walked in.

"Hey man." Parker smiled when he led us to the ice cream counter. "Can we get three comes with chocolate?" He asked and the man behind the counter nodded.

"Coming right up." He smiled. His tag read "Oscar."

Oscar handed me the ice cream cone and I smiled at him. "Thank you." I said.

He nodded and looked back at Parker. "What brings you guys in tonight?" Oscar asked.

"Just hanging out, yah know?" Parker answered. "Michael and I used to come here a lot and wanted to see how it's doing since we haven't been here in a while."

"Not much has changed." Oscar laughed.

"It's still a good place to stall time at, though." Michael said.

Oscar nodded and didn't reply, pretty sure he was done with the conversation. "Okay, let's play a game." Parker said to Michael and I.

"What's this game?" I asked.

"Okay, so, we get ten minutes to find either the coolest or weirdest thing in the shop. Whoever wins, well, I don't know what the winner gets yet." Parker chucked.

"Oh well, let's play the game!" Michael said.

"I'm down." I smiled.

"On three-" Parker began. "One, two, THREE!" He yelled and we all ran in different directions.

I had gone down a few aisles only to find a young man in the next one. I was being respectful and not invading his space and looking at different sections of the aisle. I wanted to win this thing.

I had found a cookie jar, but not just any cookie jar. It was legit a monkey cookie jar, but on the back, there were two bumps. A monkey butt.

I laughed, knowing it would get Parker and Michael to give in and let me win, so I picked it up off the shelf.

"How are you today?" The man in the aisle asked me.

"I'm fine, you?" I asked.

"Doing great. What's a girl like you doing out at the store so late?" He asked.

I shrugged. "Just hanging out with some friends, I guess." I didn't look up at the man, eye contact is scary.

"BOO!" He yelled and I jumped up. "Ha, gotcha Ari." He laughed.

"Sean! That was so mean! You're scared the heck out of me!" I yelled at him.

Sean was laughing. "That was- so- funny."

I slapped his arm. "You suck." And began to pout.

"Aw, I'm sorry Ari, what do you even have here?" He pointed to the cookie jar.

"I'm playing a game with Michael and Parker." I laughed a bit.

"They're here too? I'm going to say hi!" Sean ran out of the aisle to find our friends.

And truth be told, I won the game.
