*Lou’s POV*
“For Narnia!” I yell. We’re playing human jousting with broom sticks as swords. By a twist of fate, Julie and I were a team whilst Harry and Lexi were a team. Lexi was atop Harry’s muscular back while Julie was on mine. I only let Lexi play if she promised that she would deflect any blows from the broom by using Harry.
“Harry why do I have to wear this bulky thing?” Julie whines, fixing the football helmet Harry kept from the Pepsi commercial.
“Hey if you’re going to carry his baby some day in a few months, he wants you in the best shape,” I grin, earning a smack over the head from Julie.
“Shut up Lou,” She sticks her tongue out at me. I’m so scared, not.
“You know I could just dump you over my head,” I can tell she’s just trying not to slap me. Lexi pokes me in the ribs.
“On guard!” She giggles.
“Oi! Oi!” Harry grins.
*Julie’s POV*
A few rounds later and a few knocks with the broom later, Harry was down on his bum.
“I surrender! I surrender!” Harry laughs, struggling to get up.
“We win!” Lou shouts victoriously.
“Lou calm down!” I chuckle.
“Lou!” Harry sighs. “Stop!” Lou freezes. At first, I thought Harry might actually be able to control Lou until I realize Lexi was on Harry’s back. Her palm was towards Lou, telling him to come no closer.
*Later*
*Lexi’s POV*
Looking at my phone, I rapidly type a reply to him.
From: Robert
Why can’t you just admitthat you were better with me? xx
My face frowns and I rapidly type a reply.
From: Lexi Bear
I don’t care. U were a jerk and there’s a reason why I left u xx
From: Robert
I know I did a few questionable things but I’m willing to put it behind us if u want to get back together xx
I was about to text back when the bedroom door opens, Lou stepping in, a bowl in his hands.
“Lexi I made victory nachos!” He grins. “I only ate a third…A half” he pauses “Just kidding! I ate all of them!” His laughter rings through the room as he turns the bowl upside down and only a few crumbs fall to the ground.
Lou’s laugh dies down when he realizes I’m smiling softly while looking at my phone. Before I know it, Lou’s behind me and taking the phone out of my hands. After a few minutes of scrolling through he messages, he asks innocently, “Who’s Robert?”
“My ex,” I hesitate before saying “My dueshbag of an ex.” Lou scrolls through the messages.
“What do you wanna do about it?” He asks softly.
“I don’t know,” I say, flopping back on to the bed, head in Lou’s lap.
“Can I suggest something?”
“I’m all ears,” I sigh.
“What about if we put him in his place?”
*Later that evening*
I can’t believe I’m doing this. I have this tingly feeling in my chest but Lou just says it’s the feel of pranking. Lou caught all the boys, and Sam and Julie, up in the car and the massive prank were about to pull. He also mentioned that any pussies and those unwilling can get out of the car. We all stayed.
