Chapter 8: Get a move on

*Becca's POV*

When I wake up I'm tangled up with the cover and Zoe. I slowly start to untangle myself careful not to wake Zoe up just yet. Instead I go to the closet and pick out a black strapless tank top, light blue jean shorts and a strapless bra matching my panties before I take off my pajamas and change to the clothes I just picked out. When I'm done I see that it's only 6.33am so I let Zoe sleep since it's Saturday and walk by myself downstairs to get some breakfast. I reach the kitchen and I'm not surprised to find that I'm alone so I start making scrambled eggs, bacon and pancakes. I make the table for me, Zoe, Seth, Drake and the rest of the gang that I recently found out also lives here. I also take out some different drinks and vegetables. When I'm all done with breakfast and have done enough to feed a small army I get to the best part. I tip toe back to mine and Zoe's room and grab a horn from my backpack with prank stuff and sneak out again. Then I stand in the middle of the hallway just above the stairs and press the horn making it give away a terribly loud noise. Almost instantly I hear a bunch of thuds before the doors open almost at sync with people glaring at me for disturbing their sleep on a Saturday.

"Up and at 'em guys! You are not sleeping in today. Breakfast is downstairs, you have two minutes to join me or I'll wake you up like this for the entire coming week!" I say and when no one moves I continue. "One minutes and fifty seconds!" I shout before walking down the stairs to the kitchen where I take my place and start eating my delicious breakfast.

Almost exactly one minute later everyone piles into the kitchen and take their places. They start eating breakfast and talk timidly to each other but keep glaring at me. I can't help but giggle at them.

"Why did you wake us up so early? It's only... 7.05am!" Garth complains while the rest agrees with him.

"Well, I've always wanted to wake someone up like that and you guys gave me the perfect opportunity. Besides, on a Saturday you can't sleep in to waste the entire day. You have to enjoy it and do things you don't have time to do on school days." I answer shrugging.

"Sleeping in is not a waste..." Garth mumbles back quietly.

"It is. You'll see. By the way, Zoe?" I say.

"Hmh what?" She asks in a sleepy manner.

"Should we do what I suggested today?" I ask her.

She immediately perks up and nods her head frantically. "Yeah, I have been wanting to ever since this Tuesday when someone provoked me." She says narrowing her eyes at Drake.

"We'll start at 9.30 then." I answer nodding in agreement.

"What are you doing at 9.30?" Seth asks.

"You'll see. Listen up everyone! 9.30 you shall all be assembled in the gym wearing workout clothes. If you skip Zoe and I will prank you every day for two weeks. And it will be a new prank every day." I say in a demanding and serious voice not giving the others any choice in the matter.

"Why?" Eric and Tilly asks at the same time.

"Like I said, you'll see. But if you don't like it  you can blame Seth and Drake considering they are the reason we're doing this in the first place." I say before I leave my dishes and head upstairs. 

Back in mine and Zoe's room I change into my usual work out clothes and just when I finish Zoe joins me. She quickly changes too before we head to the training room. Since it's only 7.30am we have about two hours to practice fighting before the rest arrives. So we take out the training mat to the middle of the room before we take 30 minutes to warm up on the different gym machines and another ten minutes for stretching. We then start training hand to hand combat until we hear someone clear their throat at the door where everyone is gathered staring at us. Since Zoe is distracted I take the opportunity to trip her before I straddle her using one of my hands to hold her wrists above her head and the other around her throat.
