Leafy POV:

Oh boy. Today is a special day. You know why that is? It's Friday. It's the last day of school before we go to the weekend. "I think this day is going to be great," I thought as I got dressed. I put on a green shirt like I usually do, and because today was a special day, I braided my hair. I don't usually do that. I then went downstairs and made my breakfast. I got out the bread, put it in the toaster, pulled out the maple syrup, and took out the bread. I then put maple syrup on one piece of bread, and I clamped the other one on top of it. It's gonna be a great sandwich! It's my "Maple syrup sandwich". I can just hear the commercials now:"Buy now! The portable breakfast, the maple syrup toast sandwich!" Oh! The phone's ringing.

"Hello?"

"Hi Leafy! It's Friday! y'know what that means, right?"

"Yup! One more day left of school until the weekends!"

"So, can you come over to my house on your way? I've got something special to show you."

Something special, huh? I'll see. "Okay! See you at your house!"

"Bye!"

Then he hung up. I then finished eating my maple syrup sandwich and started walking to Firey's house. I asked his mom where he was, and she said:"Oh, Firey's in the tree house, waiting for you." Aww... He read my mind! I then went to the backyard, and climbed the ladder. I saw him looking at his phone, but when he saw me, he slipped it into is pocket. "Hi Leafy!" "Hi Firey! where's that 'special' thing that you wanted to show me?" He took out a small blue flower and placed it in my hair. "Firey, thank you! I never knew that you knew that I liked flowers!" He blushed??? Omt. Gotta add it to my small wall of victories. "Well, you told me that in 3rd grade that you like flowers."He said with a smirk." And if you ask in your mind, yes, I do remember." "Wow, how do you memorize these things?"

I then took his hand and hugged him. He hugged me back, and I said:"Let's walk to school!"

*timeskip 10 minutes later in the hallway

Firey POV:

As I walked down the hallway, I noticed that there was a large crowd. I said to Leafy, "Come on, let's check it out." As we got near, we recognized the cries. Woody! Oh no... We parted the crowd easily, like a boat and waves. I saw that Match was beating up Woody. "Why do you have to do this??? WHY???" Match screamed as she beat him up. Teardrop was trying to stop her. I saw Coiny and he nodded. I held my fingers up:1... 2... 3... Go! We raced down the crowd and grabbed Match. "Somebody call the nurse and principal!" Me and Coiny dragged a still-fighting Match to the office. As one of the attendants saw us, she said:"Good gracious! What happened?" "She was beating up Woody!" "Oh. Oh. Match, you will go to juvie for 1 month. You'll rehab your ways there." I mentally sighed in relief, but then panicked again. Woody! "Woody is also hurt. You better take him out of school!" "Okay. You kids better hurry back. Your classes start in 1 minute. Match, you stay here."

Whewf, Match is going to juvie? I walk back to the hallway, to see Pencil staring at me. She said:"Alright, you big meanie. Match is going to juvie because of you! Haw about we make a bet?" A bet, huh? "Okay, you're on."  "Leafy, go away and let me tell him the bet. You can't do this." She pouted, and walked away. "Alright. If you get better than me in the spelling bee, I won't tell Leafy how you feel about her. But... If I get better than you in the spelling bee, I will tell Leafy how you feel and you will be my personal slave for one month." "That is so unfair! Declined." She smirked, and said:"Alright, I'll just go and tell Leafy how you feel right now..." "NONONONO WAIT ACCEPTED!!!!" She grinned... A truly horrifying grin... Oh no...


Well, well, well... That's a really horrifying grin... Will Firey devote all his time in his studies on winning the spelling bee, or will he be really horrified when Pencil wins against him... With that truly horrifying grin? I'm so evil ;). Anyways, Comment, Like and Follow! Epicemrald out!
