After school I meet up with Kyle. "You ready?" I say smiling. Most of these children are my cousins so it shouldn't be hard for me to control them. I've got a few tricks up my sleeves.
"Kids love me. This'll be easy." He says with such confidence. If he thinks these kids are easy he's got another one coming.
We arrive at my aunts house. "Bella!" I scream and she rushes over to me.
"Cassie! I see you've finally got a boyfriend! Took you long enough." She laughs. I look at Kyle and he looks petrified as kids rush up to him. "We're watching daycare as well. So there's 15 kids." Kyle goes pale and I giggle.
"That's uhhh a lot of kids. What do we do? 5 kids per person?" Kyle says pushing away kids.
"Sure. Sarah! Samantha! Joshua! Jonathan! Brooke! You're with this tall guy. Do what he says or you're grounded! " Bella shouts. 5 kids come rushing forward all below the age of 9. Probably all different ages.
As Kyle leads the kids outside he grabs a tennis ball.
"This game is called find the tennis ball. You all close your eyes spin around and find the tennis ball. Got it? Good." I smile. This isn't going to go smoothly.
He throws the ball and all 3 girls rush towards him. Ones 9 and the other 2 are 8. As they run towards him he runs off. He's now running around the house getting chased by 3 kids.
Soon one kid gets tired and sits down. The other 2 latch onto his legs.
"Can I have a little help?" He says tired. Bella and I laugh.
"Sarah! Samantha! Off!" Bella yells and the girls leap off. The high five as they walk off.
"You so owe me for doing this with you!" He speaks taking deep breaths in between. I laugh. He didn't have to come if he didn't want to. That was his choice. "Fine. What do you want?" I say being sweet.
"A kiss." He smirks. He must think he's soooo smart. I kiss him on the cheek and say
"You never specified where." I smile. Bella's now killing herself laughing
"You just got played!" She shouts.
About an hour later we finish cutting up fruit for the kids. It's around 7:00 and most of the kids have been picked up. Only 10 left.
"Sarah! Samantha! Timothy! John! Mia! Anthony! Lucas! Brooke! Ethan! Mark! Get butt up here, now!" Bella shouts placing plates filled with fruit in a line. "Grab a plate and go sit down. " 10 kids grab and plate and sit with their friends.
"This has been a rough 3 hours." Kyle says as we all laugh.
"You had to watch 5 kids." I say laughing.
"5 kids is plenty!" He yells in defence but that only makes us laugh more. 7:45 hits and all the kids have gone home. Kyle drives me home and it wasn't as awkward as I had originally thought.
"This was fun! Thanks for coming with me." I say smiling. I walk into my house and say hi to my mom. I grab my school bag and rush into my room. I hop onto my bed and begin doing homework. What a day.
