            Your walking down the hallway towards your locker. As you turn the corner you slam into someone. You both fall back on your butts and look at each other stunned. He snaps out of it before you do and jumps up quickly. Grabbing your hand, he pulls you up and starts running, dragging you behind him. He opens a janitor’s closet door and dashes inside.

You only see certain features of his face as you find yourselves hiding in the dimly lit room. You give him a questioning look and he just grins devilishly and holds a finger up to his lips.

            From down the hallway you hear a loud crash and a bunch of people yelling out in surprise. A loud chorus of voices yells out his name in anger and he chuckles, his face glowing with laughter. The both of you hear the stomping of footsteps traveling down the hallway at a fast pace. His face suddenly shows a hint of worry, he looks over at you, then around the closet, before grabbing your hand and shoving you in between a bunch of cleaning supplies and blocking you from the doorway view, holding you between the wall and him. You look at him surprised and he just shakes his head, seemingly willing you to not say anything.

            The footsteps pass by though. You let out a breath you didn’t know you’d been holding and he grins relieved. He explains that if he’d gotten caught it wouldn’t have mattered much, but you were with him, so they might’ve suspected you as well. (So he was pretty much trying to make sure you didn’t get in trouble because of him.) You wait a couple of minutes with him and then finally poke your head out the door. You don’t see anything, except a bunch of feathers trailing down the hallway. You laugh and motion him to come out, the both of you walk down the hallway slowly.

Pretending to be spies you stand on the tips of your toes and lean against the wall, pushing your bodies against the wall, and sticking your heads out slightly at the corner. There’s no one in sight, and you start to walk. But, he looses balance at the last second and topples over on top of you. You both start laughing at his clumsiness. He gets up off of you and helps you up, walking you to your locker. As you finish up getting your things and close your locker he looks at you with a grin. He looks into your eyes and quickly leans over and pecks you on the lips. Then, in a flash he dashes down the hallway, calling out a “See you!” before disappearing out of your view. You giggle and continue walking out of the school.

 As you pass by the cafeteria you see a group of people covered in paint and feathers.
