WELL, RICK RIORAN OWNS THE HEROES OF OLYMPUS SERIES. (THE COVER OF HOUSE OF HADES IS RELEASED ON MAY 31ST. I CAN'T WAIT!)
"You're kidding." Nico was not amused.
"Nope. That's your camera for the whole year." I, on the other hand, found it hilarious.
"Okay, but really. Did it have to look like this?!" Nico held up the camera.
It was bubblegum pink, and had rabbits and sparkles covering it.
"Nope." I was gleeful. "I customized it to look like that."
"Why." Nico looked like he was on the verge of a panic attack.
"To see your reaction. Why else?" I smirked.
"Because your goal in life is to put me into a coma." He was serious.
"Actually, my goal in life is to romantically frustrate you." It was true, I suppose. You try flirting with a cute guy for 5 minutes and not at least slightly liking him.
"Well, if it makes you feel better, you're succeeding."
I laughed.
"Alright! Class, today we are working on nature shots with a partner." Mrs. Sager wasn't my favorite teacher, but she did have a certain vibe about her.
"Umm... Mrs. Sager?" A high, breathy voice called from the back of the class room. "Will we be, you know, going outside?"
No. No we will not. It's a nature shot, so we aren't going outside. That makes total sense.
"Yes Kelsey." Mrs. Sager responded, the tone in her voice making it clear that she was thinking along the same lines as me.
"Will we be able to choose our partners?" I asked. Please say yes, please say yes.
"No." Damn.
"Ok class, the partners are as follows:
Ms. Colbat and ms. Pierrat" Jacklyn Colbat's hair was bright blue today. Kelsey was... Kelsey, which is to say, slutty.
"Ms. Pinos and Mr. Di Angelo" BOO YAHHH!
"Who's ms. Pinos?" Nico whispered to me.
What? Oh, right. He doesn't know my last name. "Me." I whispered back.
He smiled at me.
I grinned, then tuned back into class.
"We will be going outside now. Make sure to bring your cameras."
Here Nico looked down at his camera, a comical expression crossing his face.
I took my camera out, admiring the way the silver coating glowed.
Nico held out his hand. "Trade. Now."
I stared at him. "Not happening."
"Give it to me."
"No way, fucktard."
"What does that even mean?" Nico eyes followed my path to the door.
"Fucking retard. Beat ya outside!" I exclaimed then took off running, hoping he would follow me.
He did. And I'm pretty sure he didn't just "let me win"
Line break that's 'dancing naked wearing dobby's tea cozy.'(H.P reference)
"Alright, class," Mrs. Sager called us to attention, slightly out of breath. "You and your partner must take 15 photos."
I turned and grinned at Nico. "I will take 7, you'll take 8."
He raised an eyebrow at me. Cool. I always wanted to do that. Izzy could, and nonstop did it while making "smexy" faces at me.
I tuned into what Nico was saying. "How is that fair? I'm new, I should take 7!"
"I beat you outside." I said this primly.
"I let you win."
"And now you're paying the price."
He growled at me. I stuck my tongue out at him.
Something caught the corner of my eye. Sweet, I thought. A spider web. I dropped down, (crawling-under-barbed-wire style) and snapped a picture.
"And now I have six left. And you still have eight. Because you're a fucktard."
He turned around and snapped two pictures of some stone piles.
"Who's the fucktard now?"
"Language! Mr. Di Angelo, do you talk to your mother with that mouth?" Mrs. Sager snapped.
Nico's eyes widened slightly, and his mouth tightened. That was the look Izzy had when asked for her "parent or guardians signature."
"Noooo..." Before I knew it, my voice was dripping with sarcasm. "He takes it out and switches it."
"Both of you! If I see any misbehaving, it's to the principles office."
Us? Misbehave? Never. Nico looked like he was thinking the same thing.
Another line break. IT'S TAKING A SHOWER, DON'T LOOK, PERV!
We each had one picture left. And in a remarkable show of self-restraint, we did not take a picture of the squirrels doing it. And by it, I mean... Well, you know. Okay,fine-they-were-having-sex.
So, all in all, it was going well. Until someone tripped Nico. And Nico accidentally pushed me. And I fell down the hill.
Luckily no injuries were found. Just a couple grass stains. Nico was laughing. I smiled sweetly at him, then pulled out one of my chopsticks and fit it into one of my rubber bands.
I should probably explain that.
When I was around 9, I got these from my uncle. Great birthday present, right? I was not so happy. However, I trained myself to use them. Izzy tended to be my target, because she lived with us back then. Now SHE was not so happy. To this day, she rarely wears anything with circles. It's pretty funny. But, anyways, they were almost as good as a real bow and arrow. And there's this one spot that made Izzy collapse.
And as I let the chopstick fly, that was where I was aiming. I hit the mark, and the Nico soon joined me at the bottom of the hill. Then he joined me at the principles office.
Sort of a line break but more of a... ~ thing
"Who's your friend, Kida?" The principle asked.
"Nico." Yeah. I'm on first name status with the principle.
"Nice to meet you Nico. I'm assuming this is all Kida's fault."
Nico nodded solemnly. "Yes. Yes it is."
"Wha-hey!" I protested. "Well, kinda. But still!"
Eileen(the principle) laughed.
I made a face at her, and looked around. "Your flowers are different from yesterday."
Nico's eyes widened. "You came here yesterday, too?"
"Try everyday." Eileen put in.
"Are the two of you done ganging up on me?" I asked, joking.
Eileen waved her hand at us. "You can go. But one more time, Kida, and you'll be expelled."
"You've been telling me that since I was a freshman," I called back. "I think it's worn off."
And as Nico and I walked out of the office, I realized something. I was wearing Izzy's shirt. I got grass stains on it. I winced, debating ditching the rest of school, but that really would get me expelled.
Fuck.
WELL. THIS WAS PRETTY BAD TOO. SIGH. IM DOOMED TO A LIFE OF THIRD PERSON. OK PEOPLES, THIS TIME INFORM ME OF WHAT YOUR FAVORITE SONG(S) ARE.
LOVE YOU TILL BUTTER FLIES,
KAYLA
