Playing for keeps

Chapter 4

10:00 p.m.

We had rode about 8 rides. We rode some of them two or three times. I had a lot of fun. We walked back to my locker so that we could get all of our stuff.

-"y'all I'm so tired" I told them, exhausted.

-"me too" they all said in unison.

-"give me a piggy back ride" I told Donavan, with puppy eyes.

-"how ima give you a piggy back ride? I know you just heard me say I'm tired too" he said, laughing.

-"whatever" I said.

-"yo spoiled ass" he said. As he bent down for me to get on his back. I quickly slid on my shorts and put on my shoes. As we walked to the front of blue bayou, I called my mom.

-"hello?" I asked

-"y'all ready?"

-"yea" I told her

-"okay. I'm on my way" she said, hanging up the phone.

When we got to the front of blue bayou, by the exit, I got off of Donavan's back and me and Brit told our friends bye, as they left.

-"I'm hungry as a bitch" said Donavan.

-"you ain't never lying, me too!" Said Brit.

-"might as well wait till you leave, you can get a whole meal at McDonald's cheaper" I told them.

-"ooo yea , I could really use me a number 1, no mustard, no pickles, fresh off the grill , with some fresh fries" said Brit.

-"yo hungry ass" I said laughing "but I want me a 10 piece nugget meal with a caramel sundae"

-"y'all some fat asses" said Donavan's brother.

-"I know huh? Look at all that ass back there" Donavan bust out laughing. "What's funny?" I asked

-"nothing" he said, as he kept chuckling.

-"oh well, I ain't worried, ain't nobody else complained. Y'all ride on the way?"

-"they here, I told them we waiting on y'all ride to get here" he said

-"oh. Who picking y'all up?" I asked.

-"my mama" answered Donavan.

-"oh, ima say hey" I told him.

-"okay, come on"

-"I was playing!" I shrieked. "I don't wanna meet your mama, she might not like me. She gone be like... 'Look at her with them short ass shorts on, with her stomach out" I said. He fell out laughing. "I'm foreallll" I said.

-"you crazy. It's a waterpark, you gone be half naked" he said.

-"and plus, his mama cool" said Donavan's friend.

-"and you gone have to meet her sooner later" he said.

-"I guess you're right" I told him

-"come on" said Donavan.

We walked out of blue bayou , across the bridge, and into the parking lot. He called his mom to find out where she was parked. We walked pass a couple of rows , then came to a stop.

-"I'm scared" I said.

-"pussy ass" Donavan said, laughing.

-"hey ma!" Donavan said, speaking to his mama.

-"hello" I said, speaking shyly.

-"this the girl you told me about?" She asked Donavan.

-"dang ma, you ain't have to put me out there like that, but yea this her" I couldn't help but laugh. "I don't know what you laughing at. All I did was show her a picture of you, so don't let her boost your lit head up" he told me.
