AN: So today while my sister is Skyping on my laptop, I decided to write today's chapter on her iPad. Please bare with my if there is any mistakes, this is my first time using the Pages app. So yeah, let's get on to Girl Meets Other Brother Chapter Eleven, New Room New Troubles. Oh and BTW, I DO NOT own GMW at ALL!
No One's P.O.V
The redecorating took about three days to complete. Riley's bed was a white twin-sized bed with a pull out trundle for when Maya sleeps over. Elliot's bed was a dark brown sort of back twin-sized bed. They were set against the wall that Riley's old bed was against. In between the two beds was a nightstand with a black and white striped lamp to compliment the two beds with the green walls. Riley's bedding was white with purple, green, and black polka-dots and her trow pillows were matching. Elliot's bedding was a simple slate gray. The wall were dressed head to toe with pictures of friends and family. But the wall where the beds are against, has fairylights and painting of inspirational quotes. Riley's bed was closer to the closet. A newer white chest replaced the old one near the door. A small table/bench was a the foot of each bed. Operation New Room was a success. But not for very long.
Elliot's P.O.V
Spring break was almost over which meant state tests were starting soon. Riley being Riley decided to study for the last couple days of our break. It's called break for a reason. And being the older brother that I am, I took advantage of the situation. While Mom is at work and Dad is out doing whatever he does, I go do what big brothers are best known for. Annoy the younger sister.
Riley's is always bright and happy, so obviously she's one those girls who uses the those bright colored highlighters. I took her highlighters for a little bath like Farkle did with Chelsea, but not in a birdbath. Dipping all her highlighters in a glass of water to drain the ink was an amateur prank idea. But seeing Riley's face afterward was priceless. Her mouth was open in the perfect "O" shape, and Maya laughing at her little weirdo as she was trying to find a highlighter that didn't leave a water mark.
"You did this?" Maya whispered to me.
"What gave it away," I asked.
"Everyone knows that you're supposed to keep a straight face when observing your prank," she replied, "Amateur," she muttered under her breath.
Riled opened her desk drawer to reveal another of highlighters and waved it in my face, "Nice try."
Maya simply laughed at me while Riley went back to studying.
First Attempt: Failed.
...…...
Taking her pack of led and removing the blade in her pencil sharpener wasn't my best idea.
She just looked at me and said, "Really?" Then she took out a freshly sharpened pencil for her backpack.
Yeah, not my best my idea.
...
Well, you know what they say, third time's a charm.
This time I had Maya, Lucas, and Farkle help me. Riley was going over a study guide packet, highlighting all the important details. First, Farkle tapped on the window.
"Lady," he greeted.
"Not now, Farkle. I'm studying," Riley replied.
While Farkle talked Riley up, I walked in and ripped the page she was on out of the packet. I gave Farkle the thumbs up and left.
"Well, sorry to bother you, Riley. I'll be going now."
Riley let out a deep breath and walked to her desk. She looked at the page confused. Then Maya tapped on the window.
"Hey Riles! I was just wondering what were you going to wear to the Pre-Prom?"
"Maya, Pre-Prom is in two months, and it's not like you to care."
"Is it weird to all of a sudden care about clothing."
"Yes."
I walked in and torn out another page. I gave Maya the thumbs up.
"You're right, it is weird. What was I thinking? Thanks, Riles," Maya said as she left.
Riley went back to her desk. Couple moments later Maya and Farkle met me outside of Riley's room. I handed them both the crumpled up pieces of paper. Maya handed me a bucket of ice water.
"Thought we mix things up a bit," she smirked.
"And brought in the 'snowballs' as you requested," Farkle added.
Snowballs are what we called crumpled up pieces of paper.
"Excellent," I simply say.
We turned back our attention to Riley as Lucas tapped on the window. Riley was more than happy to open the window. He climbed through the window into the room with a towel in his hand.
"I'm sorry, Riley. But when I found out you were studying during spring break, I had to."
That was our cue. We quietly crept behind Riley.
"What are you-" Riley cutoff once we dumped the ice water on her. Then we pelted the "snowballs" at her. She shrieked her head off. We finally stopped when we were all out.
She moved her wet hair out of her eyes, "You win."
"So no more studying until break is over?" I asked.
She nodded. Lucas handed her the towel.
"Thought you may need this," he said.
"Thanks," she replied.
AN: I honestly don't know how many words this was, but it seems to be a pretty good length. Once again, I'm sorry for any mistakes. Until next time
