Testing Day
————————
We had suddenly gotten a little more time to rest from the test earlier (which I think is really unnecessary). I was extremely ready for whatever they were gonna throw at me.
The next test looks pretty simple, we just have to eliminate a person from the group.
"What?" Everyone else asks. "What is up with the what's, it's pretty simple." I say.
The device buzzes, and starts to talk aloud.
"We know, it is early in the test, but this is just how it is on the offshore. You will determine who gets eliminated by if you have a coin or not. Choose wisely. The people who aren't eliminated are the people you will work with for the rest of the test. you have 15 minute.
I immediately grab a coin from the bag. I hold it up in the air.
"So who's going first?" José asks.
"Not me, I helped with the puzzle." Zjhavia says.
"Everyone did, but I solved it." I say.
"Well how are we gonna make this fair?" Teigan asks.
Silence interrupts the thoughts on who should be eliminated.
"Zjhavia, can I see your head scarf?" Rafael asks.
She takes it off and he rips it into pieces.
"What's happening?" Teigan asks.
"Whoever gets the shortest piece of headscarf, is eliminated."
"So then, Klynn, put the coin back in the bag."
So I do, but I take a coin back and hide it under my thumb as I put the other one back.
Teigans see's what I'm doing, he smirks and takes the first long piece of headscarf. He goes and grabs a coin.
Everyone goes except for me and Zjhavia.
I choose the shortest piece on purpose. They said to have a coin, not a piece of damn headscarf, And I have a coin. So I'm not eliminated.
She chooses a long piece and jumps up in the air.
An test instructor opens the door and checks if we have a coin.
Everyone walks out the door, Zjhavia and me are the last ones to go.
As she goes to get her coin, I show the test instructor my coin.
"W-what?!" She says. She see's the coin I have in my hand and shouts.
"Klynn, Klynn you bitch get back here!" I turn around and smirk,holding the coin up in the air again. Then I wave and leave.
——————————————————————————
I walk into the lunchroom and drink my water.
I walk over to the wall and see Teigan lean on it like all the bad boys do in the movies.
He starts to walk away towards the bathroom.
I'm a bit confused but then I remember what he asked earlier.
He walks back towards me.
"You comin'?" He asks.
"Oh sure!" I say.
I walk a few feet behind him towards the bathroom doors.
He pulls me into the bathroom and kisses me passionately on the lips.
