"Shhhhhhhh!" I said with a finger to my mouth. "It's ringing! It's ringing!
The boys chuckled softly but hushed up a bit. I put the phone on speaker and waited. After a couple of seconds the ringing becomes replaced by a women's voice saying "Hello?"
I made my voice a little deeper to sound older than the 12 year-old I am. "Hello ma'am! Is this Ms. Parker?" I'm a great actor.
"Yes, may I ask wh-"
"Wonderful! I am just calling to confirm your order of Mexican exotic dancers. They will be at your address tomorrow night att" i pause so it it seems I'm checking the time"eight. Am I correct?
Adam and Ian were grinning at me. David was shaking his head in disapproval but still had a smile on his face. Carter was muffling his laughter while giving me the thumbs up.
"W-what?" she stuttered. "N-no one in this here ordered ex-exotic dancers! I think you've been mistaken!
"I don't think so ma'am. In my appointment book, I can see as clear a day that Ms. Shay Parker ordered five Mexican exotic dancers for eight o'clock on June 19th. I do not make mistakes.
"Listen here. Whoever this is, I know you're fooling around with me because I did not order no strippers!"
I gasped loudly into the phone, saying in an offended tone "Pardon me Ma'am! This business I have here is not of strippers! Noooo ma'am! My business is EXOTIC DANCERS or ENTERTAINERS even!" I said the last sentence loudly and slowly. "If you cannot respect my business, I suggest you find services of this kind elsewhere." I looked at the boys and saw that all were trying hard to muffle their laughs. I myself was trying to keep from laughing.
On the phone I heard Ms. Parker huffed "I cannot believe this! I'm going to hang u-"
"WELL THEN, good day SIR!" Then in my normal voice I say "Oh by the way, Your teaching methods suck and I seriously did not deserve that D you gave me!" With that I ended the call and burst into laughter like everyone else.
"That was awesome!" Adam said.
"Exotic dancers? Did you just make that up now or did you plan on saying that?" asked David.
"No, I made it up just now. Be Proud!" I smiled brightly.
"Lillian!" I heard my mom say from downstairs "We need to go! Planes not gonna wait for us!"
The smiles and laughter quickly became replaced with sad faces and silence.
I don't want to leave. I was leaving behind so many things. The neighborhood and house I grew up in, my grandma, who practically raised me, and my four best friends. Not to be a bad granddaughter but I'm gonna miss my friends more than anything. Adam, Carter, David, and Ian are the best people in the world. We have known each other since birth and we're always there for each other even though we're completely different.
Here's a quick roll call
Carter: The short one (even shorter than me), with hazel eyes and shyest of us all.
David: The smart genius and funny ginger.
Adam: The confident and Mr. perfect-looking one who shamelessly flirts with everyone including my mom yet excluding me (I know I shouldn't but I find that slightly...offensive?).
Ian: The Athletic one who is always sweet and doesn't say anything bad about anyone.
Last and... um least ( I guess).
Me!!!: I'm Lilly, the loud, slightly insane one with pretty cool green eyes ( If I say so myself). Oh yeah... I'm also the only girl.
We are a gang of five and call ourselves the... "Fab-Freakin-Five."
Anyway, I didn't want to say goodbye to the Fab-Freakin-Five.
I stood up from the sitting position I was in on Adams bedroom floor and found myself crushed into a hug from Ian. When he pulls back I see the tears forming in his eyes. "I...no... we're going to miss you." Ian is crying for me. Now I'm gonna cry.
Sighing, I reach in my pocket, pull a five dollar bill and threw it at Adam.
Adam chuckles and says "I told you he'd be first to cry."
Ian looked from me to Adam slowly comprehending. "You made a bet that I would be the first to cry?" He wasn't mad just amused.
"Uh, yeah. I thought I would be first but you beat me to it." I wiped the tears from my eyes.
"Well I won." Adam said while walking towards me.
I rolled my eyes and we hugged each other. This led to a big group hug and when we pulled apart David said "Hey that was one good last prank call Lil's"
"Lilliana" mom shouted again.
"We all went down stairs and I saw my mom waiting by the door.
"Finally!" she said in an exasperated voice.
I followed her outside and she got inside the car. I stood in front of the car door, not really wanting to go inside. I turned to say a final good bye and was surprised to find that all the boys were right there next to me. After another group hug and a "bye" from each boy I got in the car.
Carter stepped closer to the car so that he was leaning in the window "Things won't be the same without you Lily. We'll miss you." He said quietly.
"Turn your frown upside down. This isn't goodbye for forever."
He nodded and stepped back from the car. When we drove away I waved out the window.
Oh my gosh. I'm gonna miss them so much.
Five Years later
I wonder if the boys really missed me. I'm finally gonna seem them after five whole years.
