Chapter 5 – Roommates
Comments from the author: -listens to since u been gone- I love that song… Anyway, here it is, the fifth chapter. I'm glad because my first two reviewers also added this as one of their favorites. Thanks! Well, here's the fifth chapter…
Trixie, Spud, and I entered the ski lodge. It was a quaint feeling. The lodge was cozy and warm. After looking around the lodge, we then headed for the next floor so we can find our rooms.
We spent the next ten minutes searching. Trixie then found hers. "Room 215. This is me." She said, putting her card key into the slot. Spud and I also glanced to see who her roommate was. It was Rose! She looked at us, but I took Trixie out to tell her something.
"You're rooming with Rose!" I asked her, amazed. "Uh, not if you don't let me through the door, I'm not." Trixie replied. "Okay, listen. You two are to spend all night girl-talking and blabbing about me. Then in the morning, you give me the 411 on Rose's hopes, dreams, favorite nail polish shade. Yeah baby! I am in!" I said, cheering.
Trixie then stopped me from cheering and said, "Yo, Jake, girl-talk is not my scene. Trixie does not do the giggly-headed, nail-painting, hair-braiding, popcorn-nibbling, boy-liking flim-flam." "I'll give you ten bucks." I said, trying to make her say yes.
"Make it twenty and I'll tape record the home-girl snoring." Trixie said. I thought for a moment on how it would take some money off that I've been saving for a new skateboard, but then again, if it was the only way to know more about Rose, then I'll take twenty bucks off my money bank…
"Deal." I said. Trixie nodded and went into her room. "Rose, girl hug! Teehee!" She said, greeting her in a girly way. I rolled my eyes and continued walking with Spud to find our rooms.
After a couple of minutes, I found my room. "This is me." I said, slipping my card key in the slot. I opened the door and saw Brad lying on one bed. 'Aww man.' I thought.
"Hey, looks who gets to room with the sensitive, softer Bradster." He said. He then got out a football and yelled, "Go deep, rookie!" He threw at me and Spud and I fell back.
The door across from us opened. "And this must be my room." Spud said. Going inside the room. We both saw two girls having a pillow fight. "What are you doing?" One girl asked, suddenly stopping the pillow fight.
"Get out of our room, you weirdo!" The other girl said. They both started hitting Spud with their pillows. I dragged Spud out of the room, and he was covered in feathers.
"If this is wrong, then I don't want to be right." He said. Spud went back inside the room and no sooner did the girls start throwing pillows at him.
'Ah, forget him.' I thought, throwing his card key next to his bag. I went inside my room and lied on a vacant bed. I sighed and unloaded my bag of clothes.
