"Great. Now we have to live our life by the bucket list in three months or find three thousand bucks to give my self absorbed brother." I complain, falling on my bed.

Everything I agreed to last night just came back to me! Haunting me. I think we were high on pizza. We had like six boxes.

Seth paid of course. He's suddenly convinced he doesn't need savings anymore. Where does he expect us to get that kind of money from. Short of robbing a bank, I'm pretty much broke.

I'm so stupid.

It's Saturday morning and we're in my room. Trevor and Tyler slept over.

I was so angry that I suddenly screamed, "Vanilla"

Tyler and Trevor gasped.

"Watch your mouth young lady." Trevor scolded.

I glare at him like my eyes could melt him.

Vanilla's like a curse word to us. It's the blandest flavor. Completely different from Chocolate. It shows how bad we've been f**ked.

"Tyler, you're meant to be the sensible one." I tell him suddenly irritated with everything. "Why didn't you stop us?"

"Nothing I would've said would snap you guys out of it, Syd. You had that look in your eyes." Tyler accused. He and Trevor are on the bean bags.

"What look? I don't have looks."

"Yeah you do." Trevor cut in. "You have multiple looks."

"The 'don't you dare me' look." Tyler lists off his fingers.

"The 'I need a big favor from you' look," Trevor continues completely unaware of the glare I send the both of them. "Let me say that that's your most manipulative look." Trevor added.

"I think it's the 'I love you guys' look, that look usually makes me weak in the knees" Tyler argues.

"Oh, I forgot about that one." Trevor admits."She hasn't used it in a while. She looks like a wounded puppy with that one."

I couldn't believe these guys.

"Enough about the looks I give you guys." I glare at them. "Let's review the list and see which item we can deal with first."

"Well, I've already reviewed it," Tyler smirks. Finally, he's back to himself. "And I think I can start with #24."

"You mean we can start with it." Trevor corrects him. Ty just rolls his eyes.

I grab the list off my desk drawer. "Change something in the school's computer." I read out then look at Tyler with a raised brow. "And you're sure you can pull that off?" I ask him.

"You forget I went to programming camp two summers ago." He says with a smug look.

Worst summer of me and Trevor's lives. We actually missed Ty.

"And you're sure it's safe," Trevor asks. "They won't be able to trace it to us in any way."

"I wouldn't do it if it wasn't safe." Tyler rolled his eyes. "I'm doing it tonight." He yawns. Yeah like it's all so easy to hack into the school's computer.

"How? Are you gonna break into the school or something?" I ask, still skeptical. "And we don't have anything to change in the school's computer,we're new."

"Yeah...no, I'm not an idiot." He gives us a flat look. "Although breaking into the school would give us one less item on the list, we're not doing that. I'm gonna hack into the school's files using my trusty laptop. Their password couldn't be more obvious." He states. "I'm going to change our class schedules so we'll be together. There's a better chance of us completing this list together if we are in the same class always."

"A computer hacker," Trevor muses, sounding impressed. "Never thought the nerdy stuff could sound so cool."

"Good. We've not even started school yet and we're ticking stuff off the list." I laugh.

"I'm thinking we should do #1 on the first week cause it'll be more believable that way." I tell them.

" 'The new students are bad ass' might even take us to the top of rumor mill in that school."

"I'm up for it but not for the wardrobe change. Don't bad boys wear only black and all those other less than fashionable, boring dark colors." Trev groans. "If you haven't noticed, I'm a yellow kinda guy."

Such a diva. I'm not even kidding when  I say I don't even own a single dress.

Trevor's favorite colour is yellow and he had an unhealthy infatuation with it in third grade. He was pretty convinced he could live off the colour so he only had yellow food for a whole month. His diet was based on bananas, lemonades, banana ice creams and cheese balls, basically anything yellow.

"Thanks for reminding me." I say sarcastically. "First we go shopping then we go pickup the bikes."

"I'm tired though." Tyler suddenly yawns.

I look at him like he's got two heads.

What the actual hell...

"It's Twelve in the morning! You dumbass." Trevor glares at him.

"I know. Must be the stress of getting three grands." He stretches, reminding me of a tabby cat.

I roll my eyes then sigh. If Tyler's so convinced we can't tick off everything on that list on time then it must be true.

But I'm not one to give up so easily.

I say as much but earn laughs, no— guffaws from both Ty and Trev.

Sometimes I really question my life choices, like the bucket list thing for example. Now though, I'm realizing, not for the first time, my friends are really fucked up.
