A day in the life of Ro

Chapter 9: The Game (3)

"I flipping LOVE this game. This is so fun!" I yelled. By now I was jumping up and down.

"Friends are turning into crushes!" I said in a singsong voice.

"Ok next," Lihn said she was hiding behind her hair.

Dex was next.

"Soooo Dex, who do YOU like?" I asked.

His ears turned red. But he looked me straight in the eye and said words I never thought he would say.

"I like Ro, she is so pretty and fierce. Ro, will you marry me?" Dex said he was in front of me on one knee.

I didn't say anything.

I only stared with my mouth hanging open.

Stick boy wants to marry me!

But I don't think I can.

Just Kidding

I KNOW I can't. I will never marry him.

Just when I was about to come up with a snappy comeback, Dex rolled on the floor laughing, so did Sophie.

And after a few seconds, everyone was laughing.

Even the bodyguards.

"Did you see her face! It was priceless' Sophie said.

"Did you plan that?" Keefe asked Dex and Sophie.

"Yeah, I transmitted in Dex's head the plan. It was so funny!" Sophie said.

"SHUT UP! Let's just get on with the game!" I shouted, but that only made them laugh more.

It was tam's turn next.

He started tugging on his bangs.

"I think you guy's already know my secret." He muttered.

"Ok fine, Next!" Biana said.

It was Keefe.

"I like Sophie." He said, causing Sophie to blush hard.

"Now it's Fitzypoo's turn!" Keefe said.

All eyes were on Fitz.

"Well, I like Sophie too." He said, glaring at Keefe.

"Sophie's turn," I yelled.

She took a deep breath.

"Do I have to?" She asked.

"Yes Goldilocks, of course, you do. Hurry up!" I said

"Ok," Sophie said.

She took a deep breath.

"I like....."
