-
Clay please!, I
asked looking at him.
-
I’m a bear!,
he said looking at me.
-
I’m
Goldilocks., I said while twirling around in the dress I was trying on.
-
I’m a little
bear!, he said looking at me.
-
But a very Cute
Little Bear!, I said pinching his checks.
-
Okay…
-
Put a twist on
it!
-
How?, Clay
asked.
-
Wear pants and a
top with it. Go Hawaiian if you really want., I said.
-
I can do that.,
he said nodding.
-
Thank you!, I
said giving him a kiss.
-
I’m gonna get
out of this and take you for a bite.
-
Why can’t I
take you?, I asked.
-
Cause I want to
take you., he said through the change room.
-
Fine! But Friday
night I am taking you out., I sighed.
-
Okay!, Clay said
laughing.
-
You ready?, I
asked putting my hair up quickly and coming out of the change room.
-
Yup!, he said
coming out as well.
-
Then let’s go!
I said pulling Clay out of the shop.
*
The Next Day At School *
-
All set., I said
to Bek while I was lying my head on Clay’s leg.
-
All set? Go away
Tilky!, Bek asked hitting Tilky who was poking her.
-
All set, no need
to worry any more.
-
Cool!, Bek said
before taking a bite of her apple.
-
Cool!, I agreed.
-
What are you to
talking about?, Tilky asked confused.
-
The dance!, Bek
and I said.
-
You know from
just saying that?, Clay asked.
-
Yeah!, we both
said again.
-
Clay man! You
got a chance to escape now! RUN!, Tilky said looking at Clay.
-
Na man! I’ll
stay!
-
Next agenda., I
said looking at Bek.
-
Queen!, Bek said
pointing at me.
-
Yup! But? How?,
I started to say.
-
They’re doing
it again!, Clay sighed.
-
What again?,
Steve asked joining us with Ryan under the tree.
-
That talking
thing. Try dealing when the four of them doing it., Ryan said knowing.
-
Where they
finish each others sentences and don’t really finish sentences?, Steve asked.
-
Yeah!, Clay
said.
-
That sucks!,
Steve said shaking his head.
-
Ignore them. You
think we can?, I said to Bek.
-
Nope to hard.,
Bek said looking at me.
-
Or?
-
No wait! You
think?, Bek said.
-
Yeah!, I said
realising what she meant.
-
No!, Tilky said.
-
Why?, Bek asked
him.
-
You plan on
bribing half the year to vote for Buffy.
-
Close but not
exactly., I said.
-
Sara!, Bek said
smiling before Clay asked.
-
Okay from all
that I have heard, which isn’t much mind you, you want to go around and get
people to vote for Sara?
-
He’s
learning!, Steve said laughing.
-
Excellent!,
Tilky said while clapping his hands.
-
Let’s go!
Steve you coming?, Ryan said as he stood up.
-
Yup! See you
guys at Tilky’s after school?, he said as he stood up also.
-
Why my place?
-
Cause it’s the
closest?, Steve said sarcastically.
-
Oh okay! With me
My Lady?
-
Certainly My
Lord., Bek said taking Tilky’s hand and started towards a group of people.
-
Looks like
it’s you and me, Clay!
-
Don’t complain
or anything!, he laughed when I smiled.
For the rest of the lunch Clay and myself went around to
different groups of people, trying to get them to vote for Sara, knowing that
Lisa wanted Queen. A few times we saw Lisa trying to get people to vote for her,
but so far we have gotten at least half the people we talked to, to vote.
*
At Tilky’s Place *
-
Okay… how did
everyone go?, I asked as I walked into Tilky’s lounge room with Clay.
Everyone had different answers. Each group gave a brief
description of how they went with the job they were given, like Clay and I they
had gotten about as many as we did.
-
Most people I
talked to was interested in why we were doing this., Bek said while biting on
her thumbnail.
-
What did you
say?, Ryan asked.
-
We thought Sara
deserved to win. For being the nice girl she is and all., Tilky said.
-
Didn’t anyone
ask about why you’re not going for Buffy?, I asked.
-
Surprisingly…
No!, Tilky said thinking about it.
-
Take your time!,
Bek said laughing at him.
