50 Things To Do When You're Bored
Chapter 6: Canoeing (Pumpkin Style)

Alice

Oh my goodness. This is so disgusting.

"What are we supposed to do with these?" Bella asked, a confused look on her face. She looked more puzzled than disgusted. Rose just looked freaked out. Like the question of why she bothered.

How she loved a person like that befuddled me.

Six huge pumpkins were displayed in front of us. And when I mean huge, I mean HUGE. Like I've never seen fruit's the size of small cars.

"I don't want to know how you got those," Jasper exclaimed, sending annoyance waves our way. I love him, but the feeling thing did get annoying. At least I had something to get back at him. Emmett, Rose, and Bella were on their own.

Edward winced, shaking his head in disapproval. "Unfortunately, I do." I giggled. Poor Edward.

Not.

Emmett tapped one of the giant fruits, a huge smile on his face. Pumpkins were fruits, right? "No, they're squashes." We all turned towards Edward.

Thanks.

"Anyways…We're gonna go canoeing today!" He seemed a little more excited than usual. And that was saying something.

"So tell me what these have to do with canoeing?" Bella cautiously approached the giant squashes. It was like she was afraid something was going to jump out at her. Even as a vampire, she still acted like a human.

"Yeah," Rose added. "I'd like to know that piece of information too."

"We're going to use these as the canoes." He gestured towards the pumpkins, hitting one again softly. There was a muted thud as we stared at him in disbelief. Freakishly, I kinda expected something insane like this from him.

Canoeing in pumpkins. We're vampires. In a river. Yeah, that's pretty insane on my standards. Although, I was afraid of what he considered insane.

"Of course!" I stated, raising an eyebrow at him. "Because this is what people do on a regular basis. Floating in big pumpkins and all." My voice edged up in sarcasm towards the end. I couldn't help myself, I was speaking to Emmett and all.

"Where do you think I got the idea?" My shock rose. What was he talking about? "I mean, I would never come up with something as awesome as this!" He had a point.

Bella was just as shocked as I was. We all expected him to come up with this. "You're kidding, right?"

Edward sighed. "He's not, which is the weird thing."

There was a moment of silence between us all. No one really had a comment to what we were about to do. Emmett rolled back and fourth on the balls of his feet, waiting.

"Now that you all believe me, we'll be pumpkin canoeing. Today we're gonna have a competition. You have to individually carve out the pumpkins until it is seatable. Then run it over to the river." He pointed to the right, where the clear sound of rushing water came to our ears. It sounded like the water was going at a faster pace today.

"Then you have to place yourself inside of it, and use your hands to guide your to the end. I placed a yellow ribbon around two of the trees a mile down. That's the finish line." He smirked, the sun gleaming off his teeth. The way he sounded, it was like it was going to be the easiest thing in the world.

All I could think of is how disgusting this was going to be. I am not getting pumpkin crap all over my clothes; they're one of a kind.

"Too bad I can't taste food anymore," Rose muttered, making a face. "I used to love everything pumpkin."

Jasper snickered at her. "I'm sure you loved it raw too. I hear it's just like ice cream."

"Thanks. Let me know if you agree." Haha. I had a feeling Rose was planning a way to have Jasper try some of the mush that we would be carving out. Knowing her, it was going to happen.

"There's no way out of this, is there?" Bella looked at me helplessly. I gave her a small smile. There was usually no way out of these things when Emmett was involved.

Emmett pushed her towards the gigantic pumpkins. "Nope sister, so choose and lets get started!"

The faster we started things, the faster they would end. Apparently, everyone else agreed since we followed Bella to chose our canoes.

"This one is mine!" Emmett rolled one of the bigger pumpkins out of the pile. It was the closest to the a spherical shape, almost cute in a plant-like way. Man, I wanted that one!

Before I could protest, I was sucked into a vision…

Emmett looked happy with the pumpkin that was supposed to be mine. Considering that he was so far in first place, he had a smug look on his face.

Right as he came to the river, he threw the pumpkin in, going in right after. If floated for a few seconds before starting to sunk under his weight.

Edward chuckled as the vision faded away. I smiled. Oh well, I'd much rather stay a float than have a cute one. "I'm taking that one." It was a smaller pumpkin compared to the one Emmett had chosen.

Let the games being.

--

I don't know how I was doing it, but I was. It was like my hands were in a repeated rhythm of scooping out the gooey mess the inside of the pumpkin held. Rose used to eat this stuff?

Well not actually this, but you know what I mean.

"Haha! You're all gonna lose," Emmett exclaimed, throwing his sticky hands up in the air. Um, gross. "I'm already done!"

"Good for you," Edward stated, peering inside his pumpkin. At least his nice white shirt wasn't orange like Emmett's. If we were graced with the ability to not be mess, why did Emmett do that? For fun? Or just because he's Emmett?

Instead of gloating some more, he took the pumpkin and ran towards the river. "Sucks for him."

Bella looked up. "What?"

"He's going to sink," Jasper replied for me. We could all guess that was going to happen with out the ability to read minds. It's just obvious.

"Oh," she replied with a laugh, scooping out more of the goop. "That's good. And disgusting."

"I know. No only are you sitting in whatever crap you forgot to pull out, but it's also getting wet. A soggy pumpkin…Just ew." Oh. She had a good point.

"That's just great." The sarcasm was heavy in my voice. "I love when this happens!"

Jasper came to me, sending calm waves my way. He planted a kiss on my lips, sympathizing. "So do I." And then he flew away, pumpkin in hand.

Oh. So that was how it was going to be.

"Make sure he eats his words, Rose."

She laughed, picking up her pumpkin. Now that I thought about it, they weighed a lot. Something thousand pounds. "I didn't have his own words in mind."

Then she left, bringing it all with her. Something told me she wasn't done carving out whatever was left. It was all going somewhere else…

"And then there was three," Edward mused. I ignored him, getting a brilliant idea of my own.

I took off, running towards the river. But I wasn't headed to the place we were supposed to start; I was headed towards the finish line. He said yellow ribbon, so I'm sure it wouldn't be that hard to miss.

How would they know where to stop if there was no marker?

In less than five minutes, I was at the trees that donned the pretty yellow ribbon. I tore it off, smirking to myself.

Emmett was going to get so confused when he saw no marker… if he got that far with his sunken pumpkin. I wonder how far (or long) he would go with out realizing it was sabotage…

A long time probably.

Taking the ribbon with me, I ran back to the place where we carved everything out. Edward and Bella finally started to take things seriously, considering they were no longer here. Maybe they were smart and just let.

I threw the ribbon on the ground, heading over to my pumpkin. I shrugged, smirking to myself.

Oh well.

Hit or Miss?
