The next days, I don't see Hannah and Renee. Hannah is probably hanging out with people from her class and Renee is sick, but i manage ok. We don't need to hang out every day do know we're friends.
"Heyyyy" Jenny says as she sees me. " What's up?" "Not much. I've been on an adventure to mahogany woods" i say, smiling at the memory. I still see the dancing sparks every time I close my eyes. "What happened?" She asks. "And don't say 'nothing', because i can see that sonething did" i can feel my cheeks starting to burn as she says it. "I met some pretty awesome people"
This gets Jenny to raise her eyebrows, and she is just about to say something when i feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist and lift me off the ground. " Hey" i scream, my feet dangling in the air.
"You didn't meet anyone more awesome than me, did you?" Evan says, his breath tickling my ear. "Well, they didn't ambush me, so yeah. They were more awesone than you" I say, knowing it's going to annoy him. "But that's what makes me awesome: You never know what I'll do next." He says, my body is pressed against his, and it was kind of uncomfortable hanging in the air.
"Point well made" i say. "You do have a tendency to do the weirdest things, like rubbing and orange in my face, but that doesn't make you awesome. Now put me down please"
" hmm, okay" He says, but instead of putting me down, he start walking away with me. Instantly, i start kicking around me, screaming: "Help me, im being kidnapped! " But Jenny just laughs and walks away.
Well she's not going to be on my top Ten awesome-list any time soon.
"Put me down!" I command, but he just keeps walking. "Nope, I'm going to take revenge! " "revenge for what?" I ask. " For the carrots" he says and puts me down on the gound. He must have taken me outside. "But that's not fair, the carrots were just revenge for the orange" I pout. " Maybe, but the tickling wasn't." He says. And all hell breaks loose.
It's amazing how he manages to find all my weak spots as his hands travel over my body. His touch is soft like a feather but yet as strobg as a dragon. I scream of laughter as he tickles me, and small rivers of tears start rollong down my cheeks.
" stop it, stopt it, stop it!" I scream, but it doesn't sound very convincing, as I'm laughing so hard i almost pee myself. "No" he says, still tickling me.
"Please" I ask, my breath coming in short puffs. "Nope"
The torture goes on for what feels like hours, but finally he draws away. Relief floods through my body, and I'm able to breathe normally again.
"Never do that to me again" I say, still in shock. "Can't promise anything" he says and helps me to my feet.
"I feel like I've been raped" I whisper, and he laughs. " Come here" he says, wrapping me in a hug. I don't understand this boy, one minute he's tickling me to death, the other he's hugging me. "Let's go to class"
...
The next days aren't that eventful, i just live. Talking to people about what pops up in my head and laughing at their jokes. But then friday comes and we finally pick a new dare.
"Have a supermarket cart race" Hannah reads, holding the little piece of paper in her hands. " YES YES YES!" Renee shouts "I've been wanting to do that forever, and it wasn't even my dare" she is so excited she is jumping up and down, flapping her arms around. "Easy there birdy" I say, smiling because my dare made her so happy.
We end up calling Troy, Toby and Marcus because we figure it's going to be hard having a race with just three people.
"Sure, we'll be there in half an hour" Troy says when i ask him, and before he hangs up, he says: "and I'll bring some sparks"
