Pepper was sitting on her couch watching TV. Today was her birthday and she had invited her friends. Nobody had showed up yet. She sighed as she looked at the clock.
8:30p.m.The party was supposed to start at 7 but nobody came. Before she gave into defeat the doorbell rang. She instantly shot up and ran to the door and yanked it open. Standing there we're here two best friends Bella and Sophie. She hugged both of them tightly and let them in. She noticed they both we're holding big wrapped boxes.
"Thank you guys so much for coming, but you could've came earlier" Pepper said trying not to show her annoyance.
"We're sorry it was just really hard to find your house, especially in the dark" Bella said setting down her box. Sophie did the same and the two sat down in the living room.
"So what's on the agenda?" Sophie asked.
Pepper pulled a folded piece of paper out of her pocket. As she unfolded it, it became bigger and bigger. Sophie and Bella gave each a look before Pepper began to speak.
"So first up is dinner because you can't run a successful party on an empty stomach, then we gonna have-" She was cut off by the doorbell ringing. Great everyone's here now, Pepper though as she went to open the door. It was Troy, Newt, and Sawyer.
"Hey guys nice of you to FINALLY get here" Pepper said.
"Sorry Pep coach had us do some extra practice" Troy said. Pepper started sniffing the air. They ssmelled like sweat and grass. She instantly covered her nose and walked back into the living room.
Bella sat up at the sat of Troy and gave him a smile. "Hey Troy"She said.
Troy took a seat next to her and aiad "Hey Bella" returning the smile.
As everybody began to sit down Pepper stood up in front of the TV. "Ok Noe that everybody is here it is time to start the party but first a few snacks" Pepper said as she grabbed a tray full of different types of chips, candies, and even small hotdogs. Everyone began to take something off the tray except Newt.
"Aww c'mon Newt it's a party lighten up" Sawyer said.
"No, candy gives you cavities and I can't risk that" Newt said.
Sawyer stood up and walked over to Newt and sat down next to him. "Ok Newt" Sawyer said as he took two cookies of the tray. He began to eat one. "See no cavities" He said opening his mouth wide, the cookie not fully gone.
Newt flinched back a little at the sight and so did everyone else.
"Sawyer close your mouth!" Pepper said.
Sawyer smiled and did as she said. The sight of Sawyer's goofiness made Newt fill warm inside. He didn't want to accept it but he knew it was true. Newt had a crush on his team-mate and best friend Sawyer. He loved his short curly hair and his southern accent. He'd even peek ay Sawyer a few times in the locker room. But he knew Sawyer could never return the feelings that Newt was trying to evade.
"We'll guys let's get this party started with a little spice" Pepper said.
"And what does that mean?" Sophie asked.
"It means were going to play a game" Pepper said a slight smile growing on her face.
Everyone knew what that smile meant and what "a game" meant. They all grew excited. All except for Newt as he too knew it all meant. They we're going to play truth or dare.
