"Mwah-ha-ha!"

Thomas shot me an exasperated, incredulous look. "Seriously? An evil laugh?"

I held my hand higher above my head and cackled again.

Thomas's eyes narrowed.

Suddenly he became a blur of motion, and my arm was wrenched downward.

I was ready for it, though. An instant before he moved, I had dropped what I was holding into my mouth.

I grinned at him, making sure he saw the pie's filling between my teeth.

"Sorry, bro," I said through my chewing, "You might be older, but you're not bigger."

Sometimes, I just loved being Goliath.
