Summery: One van. One Blackthorne Boy, five Gallagher Girls and a whole lot of thumb wrestling. Continuation of chapter 36 in GG4
Warning: Slight spoilers for GG4. If you haven't read the book yet and don't want to be spoiled DON'T READ IT! And don't whine to me about spoiling it, you were warned. OH and this is unedited (but isn't all my stuff anyway?)
I sighed. Four hours. That's how long it took to drive me officially crazy. Because I have been stuck in a van for four hours in between one of the cockiest (and hottest) spies I know and Liz. Four hours in a van with Bex driving, my mother in the passengers seat, and Macey, Liz, Zach, and I stuck in the back. And let's just say Zach has been feeling chatty.
"How much longer until we get to Blackthorne?" I asked my mom not giving up on giving Zach the silent treatment. He smirked and put his arm around my shoulders. I glared at him.
"Should be a good six hours at this rate," My mom replied.
I glanced over at Zach and groaned. "Hey, Bex? You can make this thing go faster," That got an annoyed, "Do you want me to bloody kill us all?" from the front seat.
Liz stretched her tiny arms out and yawned. "I'm beginning to get a little restless," She said.
"Yeah," Zach agreed, "Someone back here isn't making this car ride all that interesting." He looked at me. I continued to ignore him.
"Anyone up for a game of 'I Spy'?" Liz asked. Which is ironic because well, we are spies which would make this game all too easy but I didn't bother pointing that out.
"I'd say we could all thumb wrestle instead but Miss Moody back here doesn't look like she's up to it."
Ignore. IGNORE!
"Thumb wrestle?" Liz asked.
Zach leaned over (obviously keeping his face close to mine on purpose might I add) and held out his hand with his fingers curled in like a fist and his thumb up. Liz stared at it clearly not all that familiar with thumb wrestling. He used his free hand to make her hand match his. "Ready? Try to pin down my thumb and block mine from pinning yours at the same time."
Liz got a determined look on her face as her thumb started dodging his. Macey looked over and rolled her eyes. "No, no, you forgot to start it off." She looked over at me and then to my mother. "Ms. Morgan would you like to demonstrate the proper thumb wrestling technique?"
My mom looked turned and saw the game Liz and Zach were playing (across me). I thought she would ignore the mess back here like I was having trouble doing (since I was in the middle of it. Literally). But instead she held out her hand to Macey like Zach and Liz had theirs and Macey held hers up to hers her hand and began with "One two three four, I declare a thumb war."
I sighed and sunk back into my seat while watching the two games that were going on. I heard a, "You're bloody thumb wrestling without me?" And gave Bex and grim smile when she looked back at me in the review mirror.
"Hey I won!" Liz cheered. Zach just shook his head and said, "Rematch!"
Oh, the crazy things a four hour car ride can do to a person.
Authors Note: I just got GG4 and read it on the four hour (yes, they can make a person crazy) car ride I had back home. IT WAS EPIC! Did anyone else love all the scenes Zach had with Cammie's friends (and Cammie herself)? I've always loved Zacey but now I love Zacey, and Zach with Liz and Bex too (and of course Zammie). I mean THUMB WRESTLING? Gahh. I loved every moment in GG4. Anyway, this probably sucks but that's cuz it's one of those wrote-in-ten-minutes kind of oneshots. I'm in the middle of writing the next chapter for Blackthorne: The Return so look out for that update.
Review por favor? Thoughts on GG4?
