"Say, yes," he said. His eyes were twinkling.
To say I was shocked would be an understatement, I couldn't find any words to reply I just stood there gaping at him. I opened my mouth to speak.
My phone vibrated. Taking out, it was my mom.
"Hey," I said. Tyler stood up, dusting his pants.
"Where are you?" She was worried.
"Almost home," I mumbled still not over the moment we had
"Hurry up, its almost pass 10:30," she said her voice laced with worry.
"Ok," I said and disconnected the call, I don't make eye contact with him
"Let's go," he said standing up, shaking off his slacks but there was something different about him.
I didn't push it further, because I don't want to, things like these frustrate me, I'm clueless we things like these occur.
As we reached my door, I turned to him. He was looking elsewhere, with his hands stuffed in his pockets.
"I had a great time," I said smiling trying to ease the awkward silence.
"Me too," he said returning the smile, his more genuine.
"Good night, " I muttered looking at my shoes.
"Night," he said and turned around to leave.
And I turned too. Getting inside, and leaning onto the door.
"Ma, I'm home," I said and made my way to my room.
"He seems like a good kid," ma said leaning on the door. Scaring the shit out of me.
"He is," I said looking out the window.
"Baby, maybe you could just -" " good night maa" I interrupted. I can't let her finish it.
She sighed "good night, sweetheart " and left the room.
I sat in front of the Window looking at the stars. Trying to find answers, answers for unasked questions, looking for a sign, looking for something.
Sighing I went to bed thinking about what had happened today, it was unusual Falling into a dreamless sleep, again.
"Hey, ready for today? " Peter asked me. When I was putting my books back.
"Yup," I said excitedly
Its Anna's and Blake's birthday, so we have planned a little prank for them, we love the twin to death and they always make sure we have a blast on our special days so we schemed something out of the box for them, I can't wait to see their reactions
We entered the cafeteria and closed the door. People around gave us amused looks.
Because we have worn torn, ragged clothes, and painted our faces like zombies, also powered our hair so it looked ashy
She hates zombies and he loves zombie, we have two different surprises to satisfy both of them.
We cleared the center of the cafeteria and removed the tables.
We created a very big vacant place in the center of the cafeteria. We asked the lunch staff to allow us to use the boom box too, I think you are getting what we are up to.
We closed all the Windows and moved the curtains. Making it completely dark.
"They are coming, guys" yelled our watchman (my bio partner ;) )
"Ok, let's rock," we said and moved away.
My position was to sit, Indian style on the floor. Peter to my right corner, Alex to my left corner. Whereas Lucy and kiyara behind the lunch serving tables.
Tyler was recording everthing.
The door burst open, and in came the twins.
Showtime
Silent horror music started playing and it was the cue to start, I slowly rose up and started shaking my body, like breaking bones.
Smoke started covering the floor, I did my part but continued to dance in a very zombie manner, Peter and Alex came by my side at a time.
We acted like eating each other, slowly Lucy and kiyara climbed the tables and walked towards us bending so their belly was facing the roof and they really looked like spiders. creepy.
We lined up straight. And turned sideways and started shaking our hips, guys stood straight whereas girls lowered up and down still shaking our hips.
At the end of our creepy dance, we zombie walked towards them and pulled them to the center
Their expression was amazing, she had tears of joy in her beautiful eyes. And Blake was so so amazed.
Alex zombie walked and bought a real heart like cake.
She hugged all of us and cut the cake. We came back to our real self. And enjoyed the party like real teenage kids.
"I love you guys so so so soooo much," she said with a teary smile and we did a group hug.
We danced a little more. But stopped after a while cause we have a lot to do today.
"You got it all. right? " I asked Tyler as we were on our way to the PT dressing rooms.
"Yup," he said smiling
"Why are you smiling? " I asked taking off the rigged jacket.
"That was the best birthday surprise I have ever seen," He said with a huge grin.
"Yeah, we always come up with something like that, " I said combing my hair with my fingers.
"When is your birthday?" He asked suddenly interested.
"I don't celebrate my birthday, " I said sharply.
"Why, not?" He asked confused.
"Just," I said shrugging. And went into the girls changing room with Lucy and kiyara behind me.
After a shower, we were by to normal. We wore our normal clothes because of its Anna's turn.
We have to do whatever she wants, even if it is the stupidest thing ever.
We all met in the parking lot, my hair was still wet.
Tyler was looking at me, his stare was causing butterflies erupt from the pit of my stomach. My heartbeat accelerated to a greater extent.
"Where to now?" I asked Anna and joined Alex who was sitting on the hood of his car.
She gave us a very evil and wicked smile. We looked at each other with fear written clear on our faces.
"We are going to the club" oh lord save me
