The next day we decided to do something different. Something more exciting. Something that didn't smell like moldy cheese.
So we went to school, like normal of course, then at around 1:30 we decided to bail. We weren't sure how we were going to do it. But we knew that it was definitely going to happen.
Ruffles peaks around the door of the same janitors closet from yesterday, holding her hand out like she's holding a gun. She'd pushed me in there when she supposedly saw a teacher coming earlier.
We're never going to be able to get out of here with here being so scared (and stupid).
I push passed her, not caring who's in the hallway, not even the principal. I've put my hands up like guns too, then slowly creep out the closet.
"Alls clear." I say after walking stealthily around the hallways.
Ruffles slowly comes out of the closet. And when I say slowly I say SLOWLY.
"Wait, never mind. It's not clear." Ruffles jumps back into the closet faster than you could say boo.
A guy with brown wavy hair and bright blues eyes approaches me from around the corner. I put my hands up, still in the form of a gun, and say,"Hands where I can see them."
I expect him to keep walking and ignore me like everyone else does. But he doesn't.
He stops mid stride, puts his hands up and, stares at me with amusement in his eyes.
"I'm sorry..."
"Officer Pizza. " He smirks at me, probably trying not to laugh.
"I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not quite sure what I've done wrong here."
"You're out of class without a pass." I have no clue if that's true, but it's the best thing I could come up with. Especially with him staring at me.
He holds up the pass, "No, no I'm not."
My mouth automatically forms an 'o'. Well poop.
"But you're in the halls without a pass." He states confidently.
I look around nervously and hum, "Umm...," and I drop my "gun" shaped hands, that were pointing at him the whole time.
This is when Ruffles thinks it's a good time to join us. She pokes her head out and whispers, "Is it clear yet, Pizza?"
"Yeah it's all clear, Ruffles," I reply back, not turning around to face her.
She comes out and closes the door, not yet noticing the guy standing there.
"I thought you said it was all clear!" She runs and ducks behind me, like a little kid hiding from a stranger.
"It is clear. And can you stop acting like a little kid, Marley, that's my job."
"Don't say my real name!"
"Okay, so, I'm not sure what's going on here. But could I please go?" He looks me in the eyes then ducks down to look at Ruffles.
"Uh... I guess so? We're leaving anyways." Wait. I hope I didn't just ruin our plan.
Ruffles stands up from behind me, smacks me on the back of the head, then comes and stands next to me.
"Leaving? What do you mean by leaving?"
I look at Ruffles, hoping she'll know how to answer his question. She shrugs her shoulders as to say I don't know.
"Umm. We may or may not be skipping classes to go get lunch." I say quietly, hoping that he won't hear me.
"Huh, could I join?"
I automatically turn to look at Ruffles. She shrugs her shoulders again. It's not everyday we fine someone who pays attention to us. Especially not a guy.
"I guess. But we get to pick where we go eat." Ruffles jumps up to give me high-five, for what, I'm not sure.
He looks at us like we're crazy, but he doesn't say anything and he also doesn't run away. So all good things.

We arrive at the local pizza place about 10 minutes later. Where we sit in a corner booth, waiting for the yummy pizza to arrive.
"So, we don't even know your name." I state, looking across the booth at the random guy we met in the halls.
"My names Warren. Which is so much more normal than yours," He says pointing at me,"And yours," he says now pointing at Ruffles.
"Nah, our names are totally normal," replies Ruffles.
"Yup. Totally normal." I agree.
He props his head in his hands on the table. "Sure, okay. Tell me how Pizza and Ruffles are normal names?"
"They just are. And if you become special enough, you'll get to be called by your favorite food too."
