On Tour with R5!

Chapter Five: Pranks & Public singing?

The next morning I woke up bright and early. I was always the first awake, so I decided to use it as my advantage. I checked the fridge and found what I needed. I quietly woke Rydel up by shaking her softly, she was about to complain when she saw what was in my hand. Her eyes shot awake and quickly got out of her bunk. We turned around and noticed that Riker and Rocky were staring at us, I guess we were too loud. We could still get Ross and Ratliff though. We pulled the curtain back that was covering Ratliff’s bunk, only to find that he was wide awake.

“Nice try!” Darn! There was still Ross though. I climbed up the first rail on the ladder so I was tall enough to reach Ross’ bunk. I quickly covered his face in the whipped cream and threw away the evidence, trying to make a run for it. Ross was too quick for me though, before I knew it, he had his strong muscular arms wrapped around me from behind, nestling his face against mine making sure I was now covered in whipped cream too. This did not go as planned… Now to make things even more difficult, I had to race Ross to the bathroom to wash my face. He seemed to have zoned out, so I took this as my chance to get there first and for once, I succeeded. I got in the shower and quickly cleaned myself, then grabbed a towel hanging on the rail. Oh no.. I forgot to grab my clothes. I slid the door open slightly and yelled to see if anyone was around. I quickly and quietly snuck around to my bunk, to find my clothes gone. ROSS! I yelled his name and he pulled the curtain back from his bunk.

“yes?”

“Where are my clothes!?”

“Oh you mean these?” He said while holding up my clothes, smirking.

“Just give me the clothes and no one gets hurt Ross!”

“I’ll take my chances.” With that, he was off. Luckily we were parked in a secluded parking lot; otherwise this could be quite embarrassing. The others must’ve gone to get breakfast because I didn’t see them around. I ran after him, making sure my towel was still wrapped around me securely. I finally caught up and found him trying to hide behind a tree. I snuck around and snatched my clothes before yelling behind me.

“Revenge is sweet Ross.” That ought to make him a little paranoid. I entered the bus, quickly locked the door and entered the bathroom to get changed. I came out and saw Ross banging on the door yelling for me to unlock it. I bet he thinks this is his revenge. Ha! I’m not an amateur. I decided he had been out there long enough so I unlocked the door with an innocent smile. He grabbed his clothes from his bunk, as well as a clean towel and headed for the bathroom. Time to get my revenge. I heard the shower turn on and the curtain close, so I quietly snuck in there and grabbed his clothes AND towel! I shut the door behind me and waited for the shower to turn off. 3, 2, 1..

“MADDIE!!”

“yes?” I replied sweet and innocently.

“C’mon, I only took your clothes. That’s not fair!”

“Oh but that’s where you’re wrong. You see, all is fair in love and war.”

“What do I have to do for you to give me my clothes back?”

“Repeat after me: Maddie is the best person in the whole wide world, I’m so glad she’s my best friend.”

“Maddie is the best person in the whole wide world, I’m so glad she’s my best friend. Okay, done. Now can I have my clothes?”

“Hold up! I’m not done yet. She is also the pranking queen!”

“She is also the pranking queen.” Happy with his answer, I handed him his towel and clothes. I was about to walk off, then he yelled.

“But I am the pranking KING!” Damn it! I should’ve known he’d say something like that. A few minutes later he walked out with just a pair of jeans on, revealing his perfect abs. I’m not going to lie, I wish Evan had those! He caught me staring.
