Chapter 25

-          Clay you can’t be serious!, I said laughing.

-          I’m not! Do you think I would go as a horses head?, he laughed.

-          Hey you would have been the ass., I said poking him.

-          Ouch! You poke hard!, Clay said rubbing his arm.

-          Girl!, I laughed.

-          Well fancy dress, hum… well with your blonde hair and my dark hair…

-          You have no idea., I laughed before kissing him quickly.

-          Clay are you staying for dinner?, my mum said walking into the lounge room where we were.

-          I would like to.

-          Your father is getting the barbecue ready., my mum said.

-          That’s it!, Clay said as he stood up.

-          What’s it?, I asked confused.

-          How about going as Barbie and Ken?, Clay asked laughing.

-          Okay!, I said laughing at the idea.

-          But one thing…

-          What?

-          Don’t make me go as Disco Ken., Clay said before picking me up in a big bear hug.

* Later That Evening *

-          You got any ideas?, I asked Bek while we talked through our bedroom windows.

-          Well Tilky joked about being a horses ass., Bek shrugged.

-          Clay did to!

-          But I just told him, he was an ass. But any ideas?

-          How about a Disney couple?, I asked.

-          Oh! Oh! Cinderella! No wait, Tilky won’t wear tights.

-          Hum… Dorothy and the Tin Man?

-          Red shoes? Not bad. How about Britney and Justin?, Bek wondered.

-          They broke up. But girl, you do not have the rack.

-          Piss off!, Bek laughed while throwing a ball at my head knowing that I was joking.

-          Watch it baby! Wait that’s it!, I laughed.

-          What?, Bek asked.

-          Tilky can go as a footballer or something and you can go as a cheerleader!

-          No dude! Something funny and so Tilky… a tortoise., Bek said tapping her windowsill.

-          Tortoise?, I asked confused.

-          And me as the Hare.

-          More like play bunny!, I said laughing.

* The Next Day In Class In English Class *

-          Perfect!, I said while looking at the design in my notebook.

-          Dasha? Would you like to share with the rest of the class what is so perfect?, Mr. Gordon asked looking at my notebook.

-          Nothing Sir., I said looking down at my desk.

-          Can I speak to you at the end of the class?, he asked

-          Sure., I said as I sighed as the bell rang.

-          Dasha how are thing’s going?, Mr. Gordon asked as everyone had left the classroom.

-          Fine., I said sitting on a desk at the front of the class.

-          I have noticed lately you haven’t not been your full assertive self.

-          Yeah, I have had a few thing’s on my mind, but I have sorted them out.

-          With Clay?, he asked looking at me.

-          Excuse me? I am not sure if you should be asking me that., I said looking at him.

-          Dasha, I have your future in mind here. You are a very talented girl, you’re smart and you’re a great student. Don’t let a little crush get in the way of your studies.

-          I will be fine., I said looking at him trying to make him realize that I want to go.

-          If at any time you want to talk, I am here.

-          Sure!, I said before walking out of the classroom.

-          DEE!, Clay called out.

-          Hey!, I said getting a quick kiss from him.

-          What took so long in there? I have been waiting.

-          Mr. Gordon wanted to talk with me.

-          Oh ok… Clay said.
