36- Pranking the Prankster

(EDITED)

(TWO MONTHS LATER)

"Today is the day!" I cheerfully skip down the stairs, at 6:00am.

"Ugh Mom.....Why did you have to give birth to Harlow?" Asher's muffled voice asks. His head is resting on the table.

"Ash you better be nice to your sister, boy."

I give mom a grateful smile as she hands me a cheesy omelet.

"Why are you so joyful, bean sprout?" Dad walks across the kitchen to fill up his coffee cup.

The coffee cup I made him when I was four.

"The colleges I applied to are going to send acceptance letters today!"

"What if you get rejected instead, sis?" I give Asher a flat stare and purse my lips.

"I'm being optimistic, bro! Don't ruin my mood..."

Asher raises his hands in mock surrender.

"I'm so proud of you, Har!" Mom hugs me. Dad joins in wiping a fake tear off his cheek. "My baby is all grown up."

"Aww I love y'all." I kiss both of their cheeks before running over to Asher.

He hops out his seat looking spooked. "Hell no! I don't want your germs!"

I chuckle and run after him. To my luck he trips over his own two feet, I envelope him in a hug and land a smooch on his cheek.

"Ugh!" Asher wipes his cheek. "It felt like a dog licked me!"

I gasp in disbelief when he runs upstairs in horror.

So mean to me...

I eat my omelet and wash it down with apple juice. I grab my keys and run out the door.

I couldn't help but bounce my leg the whole way to school.

All my pent up energy was starting to come out.

I was nervous each time the clock ticked and got closer to 5:00pm.

Five is when the mail should come in.

Yet I was excited and doe eyed. The eagerness definitely knocked out my anxiousness.

My hand turns the volume knob up all the way. Music always helps me calm the fuck down.

I walk out the parking lot into school and meet the gang by the lockers like always.

Ace tried to hug me but Cal pushes him out the way.

"Oh Love bug, are you totally excited to see if you get accepted in a university?" Cal rests both his hands on my shoulder, swaying me side to side.

"Yup!" We both squeal causing freshmen to give us weird looks,

This time Ace shoves Cal out the way and hugs me. I grin, standing on my tip toes to plant a kiss on his soft lips.

"Ugh get a room!" Cal crosses his arms, pouting.

"No." Ace and I say in unison.

I hook arms with Ace as we walk to first period.

Ms. Barnes walks through the door with a big smile on her face. I stare at her shocked.

Usually she walks in with a ugly scowl and beady eyes.

"Look who got laid..." Ace whispers to me.

I laugh and pinch his bicep.

"Don't be vile, pretty boy." He pouts but his sad face disappears like magic when I kiss him.
