for him. (First in the Blue Neighbourhood Series)

  Yeah we get off our face, too easy and we take jokes way too far 'cause sometimes living's too hard we're like two halves of one heart we are, we are, we are  

They were at their second to last stop. Sophia had already found their future apartment in a little neighborhood that's not too crowded, but also not too small. She was already planning on what jobs she'd be applying for, she had made a list of well paying jobs in the area. There was a bus stop about a half mile away from their apartment that she could walk to every day while Jackson drove the car. She had also already started planning out jobs for Jackson to apply for when they got there too. She knew that their lives were going to be perfect together.

As she was finishing up on another list, that she had been working on for an hour, Jackson came up and gave her one of the cupcakes he had been working hard on in the kitchen. She took it from him happily, but when she took her first bite she felt herself gag a little bit. Jackson had replaced the yellow frosting with mustard. If there was one condiment that she couldn't stand it was mustard, if she went to McDonald's and they accidentally put mustard on it she would ask them to take it back and make her a new one. If that didn't work then she demanded to speak to the manager, she just couldn't stand the taste. So to say she was furious was an understatement, she ran past him to the bathroom to clean her mouth out, but as she passed him she made sure to shove the cupcake in his face. After brushing her teeth eight times, she came out with a glare that could put anybody six feet under, but that wasn't what scared Jackson. What scared Jackson was the fact that she walked right past him and finished working on her lists.

"Um uh, watcha doing there babe?" He asked in a worried tone, it's never really good if you prank your girlfriend and then after they are done cleaning up they get back to work. So to say that he was terrified wouldn't even be close to the amount of fear that was running through him.

"Just finished up, now I'm going to go out and by a few things, and you can't come with." She said it with this smirk playing on her lips knowing that Jackson was scared for his life. 

"Um, are you sure you aren't going to need all this muscle." Jackson said this as he held up his scrawny arm. 

"I think I'll be good with my pepper spray." She said this through laughter as she walked out the door. "I love you babe I'll see you when I get home." She let the door slam shut behind her as she walked out of their motel room. She wasn't going to get anything for pranks yet because she knew that he'd go through her bags the minute she walked through the door.

As soon as she got back Jackson tackled her in a hug, while pulling the bags from her grasp. He went through all of them and when he realized they were just snacks and candy he let out a sigh of relief. He then pulled her down onto the bed to 'cuddle' meaning he just wanted to get her mind off of the whole mustard thing. They wasted the rest of the night away, and when he finally fell asleep she snuck out and went back to the store down the road. She had found TNT Pop-Its when she had been here earlier so she grabbed those and a new bottle of tooth paste. She was going to get him back, and he was going to regret starting this prank war. 

When she got back she snuck in the room, and then tip-toed to the bathroom. She knew he was going to get a huge shock in the morning. When she was done setting up that prank she went to the kitchen and got to work. When she was finally done she slipped back into bed and fell asleep with a peaceful mind.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! 

"WHAT THE HECK!" Sophie grudgingly got up until she realized what happened. She could hear Jackson throwing profanities around in the bathroom, and couldn't help but laugh. Sophie quickly ran to the little closet in their room and crouched down so he wouldn't see her at first. She heard the bathroom door slam open and let out a little giggle. She then heard Jackson running around calling her name. She stayed sitting there for what felt like 20 minutes, but probably wasn't more than 10, when he found her. He threw her over his shoulder and swung her around before throwing her on the bed and tickling her.

"So we're even now, right?" He asked this after they had just been laying their for awhile.

"Totally, I already got you back for what you did to me why would I do anymore."

"Okay, cool." Boy was he in for a surprise later.

We were going to our last stop before we would be on our way to our new home. We had been eating junk food left in right and had already gone through five family size bags of chips. He wasn't paying any attention to the food he was eating since he had to focus on the road, when he ate one of the Oreos. I personally was staying away from that package but he didn't know that. From miles away you could have probably heard his yell of disgust as he tasted the toothpaste in his mouth.

Well would you look at that, It hasn't been months since I've updated. I hate school so much but then again who doesn't. I think there's going to be like three chapters left maybe four I don't know but there's not a lot left. After this I think I'm going to write one for Heaven maybe.
