So sorry that I haven't been on in a while. I am working on my own original fantasy novel and I am working on my science fair project so it's been a bit hectic. Anywho I shall now move on too episode six! I do not own Lab Rats.
The next day Adam decided to show Bree and I his locker. What we saw was interesting to say the least. Adam's locker was a jumble of Christmas lights, text books, and…. Things.
Adam was insanely proud.
"Tada! Here's where I keep my books, down here is where I collect random strands of hair to make fake mustaches, and here is where I stock-pile old lunches. Or as I like to call them, my tum tum yum yums." The whole thing was just a bit gross.
Bree changed the subject by turning to her step brother Leo, "Hey Leo, what's that?"
Leo was staring dejectedly at a piece of paper, "My progress report. I can't believe my science teacher says I am always late for class."
Adam gave Leo a look, "Well you are always late for class." He explained.
"Why would you always be late for science? That's one of the best classes!" I was slightly appalled. When I was in that class I always tried to be a few minutes early.
"Look, Adam, I know that I am always late for class (because its so far away) but I don't need the fact that I am late publicized!" Leo was staring at us like we were a pair of morons.
Chase ran in from the breakfast going on in the caffateria, "Look at this! An A- I knew my home-ec teacher had it out for me. Always criticizing my muffins."
I quirked my eyebrows up, "Chase what's so bad about an A-, most people would kill for that grade?"
Adam was quite happy in his brothers unhappiness, "Hahaha. I beat you I got a D+ the plus is because I'm better."
I face palmed I had tried to explain to Adam several times over the last semester that the plus really wasn't that big of a deal.
"Adam the plus is… You know what its not even worth it anymore." Bree started to explain but dropped the subject.
Chase started moping again, "Look D is not a good grade. But we don't we don't really expect to get good grades." He frowned "I am engineered to be the smartest person on the planet. And I just got an A-. I've been relegated to the huddled unwashed masses of – like you!"
It was my turn to frown. Pshh engineered to be the smartest person on the planet, someone was a bit full of themselves.
Bree was smirking, "Chase I know this must be hard on you but… Look on the bright side seeing you fall flat on your face is really fun for us!"
Chase had a stark and firm look on his face, "I have got to find a way to regain my superiority."
Leo made a suggestion, "Well you could sign up for student of the semester competition."
Chase looked like Christmas had come early, "What's that!" he asked sitting up straighter.
" Every semester kids compete to see who can best improve the school. Whoever gets the most votes wins free pencils a cheesy picture of themselves on the wall, and a bumper sticker!" Leo said this all quite sarcastically. Only the biggest dorks ever tried for student of the semester.
Chase stood up his eyes were on fire, "And that cheesy picture will show everyone that my brilliance will reign supreme! I am so going to win!"
I rolled my eyes. The school was so going to have a lot of trouble coming if Chase carried through with his plans to win student of the semester. Adam was really pumped about the whole idea, "Oh I call your free pencils, no wait I'll take the cheesy picture. Oh gosh they both sound so good."
I shook my head and disbelief, and the bell rang. Chase and Adam looked at each other for a few seconds before yelling, "Race ya!" and careening down the hallways.
I walked after them laughing quietly to myself. I loved these guys.
The Next Day…
I was walking to the stairwell so that I could meet up with Tori and we could head to psychology when I saw Chase.
" Vote for Chase. Tell your friends. Vote Chase for student of the semester. Here is a link to a website where you can paruse my platform, marvel at my skills or even play a game of Chase Trivia were all of the answers are about me." A few of the girls gave him funny looks and then walked away.
I walked over to were the other Davenports were standing. Chase strode over looking quite pleased with himself, "Hey what do you think?" he handed us a business card.
Leo shot him a look, "What do I think and what is appropriate to say to your face?" he asked.
"Chase the dream? Please do not give these to anyone I might want to become friends with." Bree handed the card over to me and I burst into laughter.
"Chase The Dream" was printed on it in big words and a picture of Chase Davenport in a suit with an American flage backdrop graced the little piece of paper.
Chase glared at me before starting to tell us about his campaign, "I've got a whole plan, check it out I've even linked the latest facial recognition software to the school data base to create a laser automated attendance system."
A T.V. suddenly started whirring and in Chase's voice said, "Andrew Lamb has been late three days in a row."
"Chase the fact that it talks in your voice is not going to make people like you anymore." I snorted while shouldering my book bag.
"Straight to the principal's office Andy. He'll thank me later for putting him on the right path." Chase was jubilant about his 'amazing' campaighn.
Adam however, moaned in despair, "Oh dude you're never going to win with that! Kids want fun stuff like chacoozies in math class and hallways paved with candy! Oh and I also think Biology would be a lot more fun if we could juggle the frogs before we dissect them!"
Leo looked weirded out, "That's frog abuse."
Adam made his version of a compromise, "Fine we'll do it after but it's going to get messy." He warned all of us. I buried my face in his shoulder and laughed.
"What?" he asked confused.
"It's nothing Adam; I just love you guys that's all." I meant it too. Ever since the Davenports came too school things were different. I couldn't place my finger on how things were different. But I knew that I felt happier and laughed more around them, something I never used to do on a regular basis unless I was hanging out with my dad.
Sorry that I haven't been around lately I will try to update again later today to make up for it. See you guys later!
