The boys were all sitting on the Garcia's patio, spoons in bowls of red Jello. Their short legs kicked off their tall chairs as they slurped up their snack. Kendall poked at his with a spoon, and it rippled from the spot he touched. James held up his bowl and shook it, watching his Jello wiggle and laughing.
"What're you laughing at, Jamie?" Carlos asked, leaning over to peer in his bowl.
"Here, listen," James told him, holding the bowl up to Carlos's waiting ear and shaking it back and forth. Carlos giggled at the flapping noise it made, and grabbed his own Jello, doing the same. He stared at his snack with interest as it smacked around. Carlos took a big bite, filling his cheeks, and squishing it between his teeth.
Kendall stabbed at his Jello, managing to get a big blob of it on his spoon. He stuffed his mouth then licked furiously at the underside of his spoon, trying to get the bit stuck on the bottom.
James snickered evilly, chewing on his Jello and flashing his friends a big, red smile. Logan winced, but laughed and did the same. He filled his spoon and slurped it through the hole made from his missing front tooth.
"Jello is the best snack," Carlos stated simply, sticking his finger in a big blob of it, watching as it turned red. Kendall, James, and Logan all nodded. Inspired by Carlos, Kendall held his Jello up, looking through a transparent glob to see the world turned dark pink.
"Yeah, it's so fun," he agreed, staring at a red James and giggling. James held up is Jello and looked back at him, laughing. The glass of the bowls distorted their faces. Logan struggled to scrape the side of his bowl, leaving the big blobs in the middle for last. Carlos took his finger out of his Jello and wiped it's stickiness onto his pants. He and Logan compared bright, unnaturally red tongues.
"I like green Jello," James said, wiping the inside of his bowl with his thumb and sucking the bits of Jello that stuck to it off. He grinned happily, enjoying the strawberry taste. Carlos winced.
"Green is gross," he stuck his tongue out in distaste. "I like-"
"Blue," his friends finished for him. The Latino smiled wide; proud they all knew such useless, random information about him off the top of their heads. His teeth were tinged light pink by the red Jello. In fact, the space around each boy's mouth was dyed light pink.
As it turned out, it was probably one of the last times the boys had Jello. They had eventually ran out of ideas and began flinging Jello at the house and each other with their spoons. James went home crying over how some got caught in his hair, Carlos had managed to get some in his eye, Kendall's shoes ended up filled with it, Logan had a big line of red down the back of his white shirt, and the parents were wondering just how things got so out of hand.
Short and a lame ending note, but I was eating JELLO and you know… I just sort of had to happen.
I also know I promised Kames, but DON'T WORRY! James is going to get a haircut next, so… yeah.
And please don't yell at me guys. If you don't like it, you don't have to read it. Or just send me a nicely worded request and I'll pounce on it, kay?
