Never have I Ever

ch 20

"Ehhhh I'm too lazy," I sighed as Bekka continued to restlessly shake me. My eyes snapped open as I glared at her innocent smile.

"It's 7," she greeted.

"WHAT!?" I shrieked. She clamped her hand over her mouth. Sabrina laughed at me and slung her towel over her shoulder.

"My reaction as well," she nodded and we turned to Bekka.

"We are going somewhere. Sneaking out," Bekka mischeviously grinned. She moved on to Alison and gestured for us to go do our morning routine.

"Badass," Sabrina winked before we went. After brushing our teeth, Alison entered with Bekka.

"Ugh, so tired," Alison rubbed her eyes.

"I know," I frowned, missing my beauty sleep already.

"Shush and stop complaining," Bekka scolded us. Sliently, we finished everything and got dressed. I turned to Bekka, interested, "Where are we going?"

"Somewhere~" Bekka smirked. 

Sabrina looked at Bekka's face, "You aren't going to do anything illegal right?" Alison and I cracked up on that. Bekka shushed us and we closed the door, finally outside. It was freezing. 

"If we get caught, Alison and I will be like 'we don't speak english' and Sabrina and Bekka will be like 'we're deaf' ok?" I looked them in the eye. They burst out laughing and looked at me as though I was looney. 

"Ok ok jeez," Alison giggled when I gave them a look. We walked for a while.

"Hey guys?" A sudden joke, a pun-ish one, came to my mind, "What do you call a butter than can fly?"

"Jokes ugh," Bekka groaned.

"What?" Sabrina gave me the -.- face. 

"A BUTTERFLY!!" I cracked up, thinking that the joke was pretty darn awesome. Alison giggled along, since she laughed at basically anything. 

"Haha. What." Sabrina blinked.

"Worstest worstest joke ever," Bekka's grammer went wrong, "It was so stupid that it is funny." That made me even laugh harder and we had to stop because I was leaned over, clutching my stomach in laughter. Sabrina silent laughed at us because ouf our laughter. Alison was now really sounding like a donkey, laughing 'hee-haw'. 

"Oh god guys," Bekka facepalmed and checked the time.

"Let's go!" I was excited to see where she was going to take us. Was it somewhere fun?

"Here," Bekka pointed at a small cafe. It was modern with lots of greenery around it, giving it an exotic feel. Some flowers were bursting out of their buds. Since it was in the fall, I was shocked that it was so green. The cafe itself was small and cute. It was white with bright yellow words reading 'Macchiato'. A black board displayed the menu.

"WE CAME HERE, WOKE UP AT 7 FOR THIS!?" Sabrina shrieked, enraged.

"Don''t knock it till you've tried it," Bekka shrugged and we walked it. It was a breakfast shop. Guess we were getting food. Yum food.

"We'll have 2 mocha frapps, 2 coffees, a morning bun, a crossiant (chocolate), a stack of 10 pancakes and an omelet for here," Bekka ordered with authority. The cashier nodded and took our orders. Bekka insisted to pay so we just went and found spots to sit. There was one at the corner and I sat there. Bekka got our orders and slid Alison and Sabrina their coffee. I got my mocha frapp and slurped, being hungry. It was good tasting.

"Food~" Bekka placed the pancakes in the middle and passed around 4 plates. A cup of syrup was placed in the middle and we dug in. Each of us took 2 pancakes and a fourth of the omelet. I had the morning bun and Bekka had to chocolate crossiant to share with Alison. Sabrina said she couldn't eat that much so she stuck to her pancakes. The pancakes were fluffy and sweetened just so it would wake up one's tastebuds. In other words, they were delish. The omelet was warm and I have no idea what they put into this but it was the best omelet ever. Looks like I've underestimated this place.

"So good," I commented, chewing. Sabrina shut my mouth so I wouldn't chew grossly. I laughed.

"I know!" Alison too another pancake and Bekka followed her.

"I'm full but that was great," Sabrina patted her stomach.

"So fast!?" I gasped. One of her pancakes were still there and I took it to eat.

"Best. Food. Ever." Bekka nodded.

"You come here often?" Sabrina raised her eyebrows.

"Yup." Bekka swallowed. Sabrina sipped her hot coffee along with Alison.

"This should be our place to meet and chill," I looked around, the idea hitting me. How cool would it be to have a secret (not much!) place to ourselves just for us to hangout and have fun at?

"Yup." Alison agreed and we all decided that during whatever, whenever we needed to see someone, even in the future, we'd meet here. 

Finishing our food, we made our way back. Halfway there, Bekka halted.

"F..." she cussed, "MY KEY IS AT HOME!" We blinked at her and continued to walk. Bekka was cursing the whole way.

"Guys, we need to climb that tree in my backyard and entered my hopefully open window," Bekka checked her clock. It was 7:30.

"Don't your parent's wake up at 7:45?" I questioned. Bekka nodded and we raced off.

"This is tall," Sabrina gulped, "My ankle must suffer now." 

"My fear of heights," I managed through my fear. It was one of the tallest trees in the universe, I swear. Ok maybe not, but it was so tall. I should've paid attention to this tree more. There was barely any foot stands.

"S'ok," Alison shrugged. Bekka went first, Sabrina after her, me after that and Alison last. It was slippery all the way, without footholds. Most of the way, we had to cling onto a thick branch only, our feet dangling.

"This is scary," Alison began to freak out.

"Oh god, my ankle is fine for now," Sabrina peered at her ankle.

"A little more!" I tried to sound encouraging but greatly failed.

"Sabrina, you're fine, Alison, don't fall." Bekka called back to us. I looked down and gulped at the ground which seemed so far away right now. We were two stories high. Bekka was struggling to open the window and one false move brought her crashing onto the ground.

"Careful," I whispered, my voice barely loud enough due to fear.

"I have a slight fear of heights," Alison shuddered from her sitting spot below. Lucky her had a branch to sit on. I was standing with my arms wrapped around the thinning trunk.

"Got it!' Bekka grunted and she hopped into her window. Sabrina hefted herself up to join her. I clambered up and reached down for Alison. She was climbing up and holding onto a thin branch, her feet not secure for now. She was at least a foot away and I patiently waited for her until.... the branch went

CRACK!
