Chapter 14

And the show begins! Celia thought to herself.
"Ooooh, Romie! You are a rascal, You wanted to see Anna wet, eeh?" Celia and Javiera cried at once. The two girls began to laugh.
As Javiera was crying tears of laughter, Celia was rolling on the floor, Morzan smiled with derision and Brom swam in the icy water. Meanwhile, Oromis had already left the pool and offered his hand to Anna help her out. The two tried to ignore, with all their might,their . . . . situation.
"Oh, no! My Ying-Yang!" Anna immediately pulled her necklace out and tried to dry it on her clothes, which was impossible.
Celia was laughing on the grass and saw the surprised looks that crossed Oromis and Morzan's recognized the symbol of the necklace, it was the symbol they saw when trying to sneak into the minds of Anna and Celia.
Javiera had recovered from the laughter and looked carefully (as carefully as she could) at Oromis and Anna ...
"Eeeeeeek! You are soaked! Do not come near me!" Anna looked at her skeptically. Oromis simply raised his left eyebrow at the claim of the brunette.
"Okaaaay . . . Let's go home because the three of us are soaked" Anna looked at Brom and Oromis "And I daren't leave Celia and Morzan alone"
Celia stopped laughing and shouted:
"DON'T CALL ME CEL, I AM NOT A CELL!"
Anna gave her a reproaching look.
"Ok, let me fix it . . . If you ever call me Cel again, I will tell Oromis, Glaedr, Morzan and Brom all the things you did to become, according to you, the "perfect" girlfriend for Oromis, even about the times you memorised words in the Ancient Language, and the time you tried to make your ears pointy with pegs from the washing line . . . You remember, dear Anita?" Said the girl with a soft and innocent voice. It was ironic contrast between the message she was transmitting (threat) and the tone of voice used (sweet).
Anna was silent.
Morzan seemed interested in the conversation.
Oromis looked worried about Anna. He would almost not be able to stand somebody like that. With Celia as a friend, who needs enemies? She pranked, annoyed and practically tortured Anna constantly, and yet they were best friends!
"What happened with the ears?" Javiera asked.
"Well, Anna realized that elves + humans doesn't work, so she decided that for her and Romy to be able to . . . mmmmfffff" Anna ran and shut her mouth so she could not articulate another word.
"If you say something, I will tell everyone about Murtagh . . ." Anna whispered in her ear.
"Well, I'll show everyone the pictures you drew of dear Romy that do not look anything like him because in you pics it seemed he was 12, however this" Celia said, pointing to Oromis "Is really like . . . 900 years old or something! . Didn't you know there is a thing called anti-ageing cream? You should try and not look like a pedophile next to Anna . . ."
"Why are white stones on the bottom of the pool?" Brom said, fresh from the water. In his hands was 3 white stones of the same size.
"You remember ...?" Anna and Celia exclaimed at once and began to laugh
"Okay, today is the official day of "Lets roll around and act like idiots"" Morzan exclaimed, tired of so much laughter.
"It's just that . . . [laughter] . . . those stones . . . [laughter] . . . Anna dropped them . . . [Laughter], when we tried to . . . [laughter] . . . test the theory . . . [laughter] . . . gravity in the water . . . [laughter] . . ." Celia tried to explain but the laughter won. In the end she threw her head back and roared, unable to continue explaining.
"They where inside of the lollipop that belonged to Aurora that we tried to force into sinking while it was still full of air, in the end we failed to find out if it would work as I dropped to the stones and . . ." Anna tried to explain but as with Leah, laughter won.
"Ummm ... We should go to change" Oromis said.
Why must he always ruin the moment?
"Yes we should . . ." Anna stopped laughing and regained her composure. "Come on!"
They all headed back to the house. Celia grumbled a bit, got up from the lawn and followed them. A crazy idea popped into her head and she smiled.
"Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna!" Celia ran up to her friend and began to call her.
"What is it?" Anna asked in a weary tone.
"Say yes, stubborn, stubborn, stubborn!" Pleaded the girl.
"Ok . . . No!"
Celia smiled and began to scream.
"Yes! You said "Ok" which stands for yes!"
"I said no. Two letters: N.O."
"Pleeeeeeaaaaase ! Celia made a kitten-face that went to slaughter and pleaded for her life. "You don't even know what I want yet . . . ."
"Fine . . . Tell me what is . . ." Anna sighed. That was one reason why she liked the quiet, Celia always made her nervous. Everyone looked curiously at the two girls to know what Celia jad in mind.
"I can choose your clothes? If you want you can check to see that I do nothing wrong . . ." Celia pleaded "Purr-lease"
Of course I will not do anything wrong . . . Putting my special powders in Oromis's clothes is not defined as "wrong" ... Haha! That will show you to plead innocent, Oromis! In addition, Anna does not know of the existence of the dust because it's the first time I use it . . . All a perfect plan, worthy of . . . ummm . . . Galbatorix!

'Only if you let me check the clothes before and did not choose any clothing or ridiculous for me or for him Oromis told Anna-nor for that, this time said Brom, who was catching white stone, like the pool only that they were not in the water ...
