I woke up at 8:15. I groggily got up from my bed, went to make a few eggs and toast for breakfast and changed into a jean romper and put my hair into the same style as yesterday. Will was still asleep and I heard Jonathan leave as I was getting changed. I haven't seen my mom for a while and wondered if she was being held back at work or something.

I walked to the bus stop, waited about five minutes, then paid my ride and got the the mall. I went inside and went straight to Scoops Ahoy where Steve and Robin were. 
"Hey guys," I greeted. 
"Hey," Robin greeted.
"What's up?" Steve greeted. "Is Dustin here, yet?" I asked. 
"Yeah, he went looking for the secret location where the "Evil Russians" supposedly are," Robin said. "Oh," I nodded. 


I went behind the counter and into the break room. After a few minutes of reading through the Russian dictionary Robin had, Dustin came into the break room, running his mouth about what he found.
" That keycard opens the door,but unfortunately, the Russian with this keycardalso has a massive gun. Whatever's in this room,whatever's in those boxes, they really don't want anybody finding it," Dustin explained.
"But there's gotta be a way in," Robin shook her head.
"Well, you know...I could just take him out," Steve suggested.
"Take who out?" Robin asked.
"The Russian guard," Steve replied. Robin laid back and her eyes filled with annoyance and sarcastic interest. 
"What? I sneak up behind him, I knock him out, and I take his keycard.It's easy," Steve explained. I rolled my eyes.
"Did you not hear the partabout the massive gun?" Dustin asked.
"Yes, Dustin, I did. And that's why I would be sneaking."
"Ah. Well, please, tell me this,and be honest--"
"Steve, how many times have you actually won a fight?" I interjected, interrupting Dustin. I could feel him give me a look of annoyance behind me. 
"That was one time--" Steve complained.
"Twice. Jonathan. Year prior?" I said.
"Listen, that doesn't count," Steve argued.
"Why wouldn't it? Because it lookslike he beat the shit out of you," Dustin said.
"It was..." Steve tried to say, but Dustin interrupted.
"You got a fat lip, crooked nose,swollen eye, a lot of blood......things that all added up..." Dustin went on.
