The Blizzard Competition

So the first week of school ended and I couldn't be happier. Eric has no classes with me, but he does have a few of them with Trish. I'm surprised she hasn't beaten him up. I would love to see Trish beat the crap out of him. And if you knew me, you would know that I'm not a violent person, but Eric deserves it.

I was at Sonic Boom working my shift since it was Saturday. Not to mention that I'm alone since my dad's on break and none of my friends are here yet. Knowing them, they're probably still sleeping since it's only ten in the morning.

"Hey Als," Austin greeted walking into the store. I ran around the counter and hugged him, practically tackling him to the ground. "Someone missed me." He chuckled.

"No, I was just really bored." I reclaimed my spot behind the counter. He rolled his eyes and chuckled.

"Well it's good to know that I'm only here to entertain you." He said jokingly. He leaned over the counter and gave me a quick kiss. "So did you hear about the school trip for all the juniors?" I nodded.

Every year the juniors go to California for a week and at the end of the trip, they have to write a paper about their experience.

"Aren't we going to California?" I questioned. The look on his face told me that I was wrong.

"Nope, we're going to Colorado!" My jaw dropped and my eyes widened.

"Are you serious!?"

"Yeah, we're gonna be there for a week and guess who are the chaperones."

"Who?"

"Mrs. Fields and Ms. Brooke! The best teachers at Marino High!" I smiled widely and he mimicked me. But then a thought struck me.

"But the juniors usually go to California for their class trip." I said, confusion written all over my face.

"Yeah, but since everyone was so infatuated with snowboarding, they decided to change it up."

"This is awesome! We have to tell your cousins!"

"Or we could make it a surprise." I thought about it for a second and nodded in agreement. "They're gonna be in shock when we show up."

"I know, it's gonna be great! Oh my god I'm so excited!"

"Me too, and everyone's gonna love watching you snowboard."

"That's the only thing I'm not looking forward to. I mean why do people care that I snowboard?"

"Don't know, but don't let them bug you."

"I guess you're right." I sighed. "And maybe I could actually teach you how to snowboard."

"I'm always right, and maybe you will teach me how to snowboard." He smirked.
