Do Something Crazy

I wake up and look on the floor. Aidan is still there. That’s a surprise. I thought he would’ve left way earlier. I tip-toe around him and I go to the kitchen. I see my mom’s purse on the counter. I get a tremendous idea. I grab her purse and take a credit card out. I could just text her later and tell her I have it. I slip it into my pajama shorts and walk back up to my room. I grab all my school clothes and go to the bathroom. I take a nice long shower with my mango and papaya bath gel.  I step out and dry off. I sit on the tub and get dressed. Then, I go to the mirror and do my hair and makeup. I step out of the bathroom looking all beautified. The dance is tonight, so I go and look for a dress. I find the perfect light, green dress. I turn around and walk over to where Aidan is sleeping on top on one my big fluffy blankets and wrapped up in another one. I reach down and thump him on the head. He slowly gets up. “Hey, I’m about to go.” I say.

“I need a ride to my house.” He says sleepily.

“You walked over here, walk back.” I say.

“I’m so tired, though.” He says looking pitiful.

“How about I just take you home, you get ready, and I take you to school.” I say.

“That will work.” He says getting up and stomping off to the bathroom.

“I’ll be outside and if you’re not out there in 3 minutes you’re getting left.” I say.

“Whatever” He yells back. I walk outside and hop in my beautiful dark, marble purple jaguar that I hardly ever drive, but today’s different. I look at the clock its getting so late. I slowly start to drive off my beautiful circular driveway and what do you know? Aidan comes running up in some really cute looking jeans and a red shirt. Oh, yeah, he had it on last night, I don’t remember that. I stop and let him get in. First thing he says is cool car. I just smile.

“Yea, I’ve had it forever, but I hardly ever use it.” “I usually get driven.” I say.

“That’s just you,but I definitely would drive this!” He says. I don’t even bother to mention the reason he probably isn’t driving is because he doesn’t have a car, not to mention we’re not old enough, or that if I was I could only drive during day light hours sense you can’t at night. I just let him continue to soak up the cars smell. Yea, it still has the smell. We drive a few minutes and soon make it to his house. He doesn’t say anything just hops out. I start thinking about how today’s going to turn out. It’s going to be so awesome. The dance is going to be beyond amazing if I can help it. I pick up my phone and start to dial the twins. I only briefly explained to them what I’m going to do. Now, I’ve decided I want help, so it’s time to tell it all. Laya picks up the 2^nd ring. “It’s Laya.”

“Hey, look, I’ve got this extremely ridiculous plan, are you listening?” I say.

“Yea, I’m listening and I’ve only got a few minutes so talk fast; where are you?” She says.

“I’m waiting for Aidan, with his slow self, but I’m coming; that’s still not the point!” I yell. “I have mom’s card so here’s what we’re going to do, you see, after the dance tonight we’re leaving.” “I’m going to California and I want ya’ll to come, plus I want us to have official status of B.M.I. I want it known, and we’ll make it happen at the dance, Laya, we’re going on stage.”  “I’m going to text mom and let her know I have the card and not some criminal, but she is not to know where we are and neither should any of your parents.” I say talking quickly, loudly, and clearly. I want to make sure she hears me. This is not to be messed up its critical.

“Yea, ok, I hear ya.” “I’ll go.” She says.

“Great, ok, there’s something else to.” “I need you to tell the rest of them, that’s Lana, Zane, and Kane; I’ll tell Aidan on the way to school.” “Tell them I’m hiring a limo driver to get us to Georgia’s airport; meet me at Hampton Inn and we’ll ride in the limo from there plus I’m booking a flight to San Diego California.” I say quickly. She’s said she has it all under control, which I mildly doubt, but oh well; we hang up. Aidan comes out looking super cute. He has on green shirt, black pants, and black shoes, with a green hat that’s turned to the side. I must say he does look darn good. He comes over to the car and gets in. I tell him all about the plan and he said he was fine with it and didn’t mind going.  Well, that’s fine with me. We drive awhile and we reach the school. It’s like 10:10. I park crookedly and hop out. I press the remote and lock the car. I look back and Aidan’s still far behind. I don’t stop, I continue walking. I make it to class, like, right before the bell rings. I sit down and start work. First period goes by fast and so does 2^nd, and 3^rd. It’s 4^th period now. I hurry to lunch. I need a break! I walk down the hall and I see the twins. We decide to walk to lunch together and we talk the whole way about my little plan. When, we get to the table, it’s nothing pretty. Zane and Kane are sitting in their usual spots just staring at all the action and Aidan is standing up getting chewed out by Marcie, and Marcie’s friends are just standing there too.

“I just want us back together!” Marcie says. Wow, I thought she had let all this go.

“No, we’re through, can’t you get that?” Aidan says.

“It’s that lowlife nobody that started all this, isn’t it, you leave all this for all of nothing?!” She doesn’t notice I’m standing right behind her. The twins grab my arms because I sure was about to get her. Aidan looks around; see’s me and gives me an apologetic nod. Marcie turns around to see who he’s looking at and swiftly smacks him across the face. Aidan looks awfully mad now.

“This is the last time you do that, ever, Marcie, we’re over, that’s just it so go away.” He says looking madder than I’ve ever seen him. He looks at the necklace on her neck, snatches it off and throws it across the room. “You were a mistake and giving you that stupid necklace was a bigger mistake, so leave and don’t come back.” He says looking like he’s about to hit something. She tells him that the necklace was fake, that it meant nothing to her anyway, then he gives her a shove and she stomps off, shoving past me on the way out. We all stare after until she is out of sight. Then we sit down and no one says anything for a long time. We all keep giving Aidan nervous glances.

“You want your fries?” Kane asks me breaking the silence.

“Uh, yea, ask Laya.” I say. He turns to ask Laya and of course she says no. Of course Marcie had to ruin another day, so we all sit at the table not saying much. It doesn’t matter anyways; all I can think about is our trip. The bell rings and we all get up. I go to sixth period and when the bell rings I decide to skip 7^th. I quietly walk outside and text Aidan.

Me: you’re going 2 have 2 skip 7^th period, if u want 2 get home; I’m goin’ home to get packed

Aidan: R u insane? , but yeah I’m all 4 it though, where r u?

Me: yea I am, don’t u kno tht by now? , I’m outside by my car; hurry up be4 security comes, also tell Zane and Kane to go get packed 2, I’ve got L & L

I stand by my car and text Laya and Lana.
