Summer Love

ONE

"I need to get out of this town!" I exaggeratedly groaned as I walked into my Algebra 2 class. It so happens to be the last day of school, and I would've ditched, but I go to such an uptight private school; I couldn't so much as miss one class hour without my parents being notified.

"We all do Ms. Palma. Please take a seat." My face flushed from embarrassment as my teacher pointed me in the direction of my seat.

I took a seat next to one of my best friends Daniela, and laid my head on the desk. All my teachers have been talking about are their summer plans and how we should try reading or at least reviewing something over the summer. Yeah, no thanks.

The second bell rang signaling the commence of my 6th period class. 2 more and I'm out of here!

"You're late, Jennifer." My teacher announced as my other friend strolled into class. "Yeah, I know." Jennifer rolled her eyes taking her seat behind me.

"Even on the last day of school you walk in late." I turned back to look at her, stifling a laugh. She gave me a mocking "ha", and proceeded to tell us why she was late.

"So the guys decided to pull a prank on all staff, but they need our help." This should be good. Our guy friends are always coming up with crazy stuff. "Okay, so you know how their last project for Sex Ed was to take care of a "baby" in that flour bag thing?" Daniela and I nodded in understanding. "They want to dump all the flour into the bathrooms and flush the toilets to make them glog up and overflow. But they can't go into the girl's bathrooms, so they need us." I laughed and shook my head. We'd most likely be in so much trouble when we get back next year, but whatever.

"I'm in." I laughed. "But whose going to cover the cameras? If they see us, we'll be in so much trouble."

"I'm taking care of that." Jake, one of our guy friends cut in. "I'm gonna take a couple spray paint bottles from the art room, and cover them up." I nodded at him as he explained the rest of the plan.

After 7th period, I met 2 of the boys on the 3rd floor; everyone else split up onto the other floors.

"One of you are gonna have to come in with me because I can't care these bags." I groaned as I dragged 2 flour bags into the bathroom. The cameras were done being spray painted, so that gave us a minute or two to cause this disastrous mess. I pulled a pair of scissors out of my back pocket and cut a hole into each flour bag. Jake poured the flour into each stall and I flushed the toilets as he finished. Once the first toilet started to spill water over the tiled floors, we finished the last one and ran out the bathroom in fits of laughter. The other guys finished the boy's bathroom and we ran down the stairs to check and assist the others before the bell rung or our principal noticed the paint covering the cameras.

When we finished, we all ran up to the second floor into an empty computer lab to wait for our mess be discovered.

The last bell rung, signaling the end of the school day. I can't believe I agreed to all of this.

We walked out of the class like normal, and spotted a group of people huddled around the corner. We kept walking towards the huddle.

We got off scot-free, thank God. I'm not afraid of getting in trouble, but I just thought of an amazing plan, and getting caught was not part of it.

"I just thought of the perfect plan for the summer." I informed Daniela and Jennifer as we walked out of school. "We should go to Florida. We've always talked about going, and we're 17. We should be able to live without our parents for 3 months."
