Every day of the week was boring. Except Friday. Friday brought me butterflies as I awaited the arrival of my favorite person in the city. The ninja turtle who saved my life six months ago. Thursdaysconsisted of me grabbing a frozen pizza
from Walmart and deciding what the Disney movie of the week would be. Then Fridays brought my best friend to my house. We'd hade a couple slices of pizza, I'd pop some popcorn, and we would watch whatever movie I picked out.
All this fortunately happened after the football game. He had a way of knowing when I,the only flute player in the marching band, got home. And what movie I would try to suprise him with. Before I turned on The Little Mermaid, he gave me a
/seashell necklace. The week of Beauty and the Beast, I was suprised to see a book like the one Belle describes in the beginningof the movie.
Today I had made sure I was as ready as possible. The pizza was hot and on the table, the popcorn was popping in the microwave, and Tangled was in theDVD player. The microwave beeped, and I herd a voice coming from the fire escape.
"Popcorn's done"
"Raph!"
"What movie are we watching"
"Tangled"
Raph smiled and showed me a small box. Inside was a hair clip that looked exactly like the magic golden flower from the movie. And a mood necklace with the color-changing charm shaped like Pascal. "How?" I asked, "How do you know what movie we
are
watching before you come over here?"
"Magic"
"Yeah, right"
"You know you won't get a straight answer from me"
"True. This is an awesome movie. The girl gets a whole pub full of ruffians and thugs singing about dreams"
"Really? 'I got a dream' is better than 'Really? A blow dart in my butt cheek?' How?"
"I didn't say it was better than 'Stay out of it or you're sleeping in my armpit'"
"Maui is the best character in all of Disney"
"True, but who is the best Disney princess?"
"Easy, (the Disney princess that looks most like you)"
"Why?"
" 'Cause she looks so much like you, my real life princess"
"Awww. Raphie has a girlfriend!" someone outside said.
"MIKEY!" The voice belonged to anorange-banded ninja turtle that Raph proceeded to yell at. "Did you follow me here?"
"Yeah! Leo and Donnie didn't even try to stop me"
"Go away! Friday night is supposed to be MY night! My night to be with (your name) Go home!"
"Friday night is date night for you and prank night for me. And because I am off in my room writing my name on all your stuff with glitter glue, Donnie can get stuff done in his lab, and Leo can watch Space Heroes in peace"
"Again with that lame show?" I was starting to get irritated, "With Matthew, in is always Space Heroes, Space Heroes, Space Heroes! Nothing but that dumb show!"
"Matthew and Leo would be such great friends!"
"Yeah! Now get out of my house, Mikey!"
"Okay. But first, who won the football game?"
"We did"
"First time in forever"
"Bye, Mikey!"
We both left, him out the window and down the fire escape, and me towards my room. I came back wearing a black cat costume. "Wanna come to a Halloween party?"
"Sure"
