"Guys remember twenty minutes ago when we were at Fitz's house and didn't die?" Adam said.
Clare and I laughed at that, "Okay, stop number two! Anyone wanna take a shot aty who our next victim is gonna be?"
"Hm, hm, is it...Owen?" Adam guessed
"No, one more guess."
"Okay, shot in the dark here, Bianca?" Clare piped up.
"DING DING DING! We have a winner!"
"Ohh, this is gonna be good." If I do recall correctly even St. Clare smirked at that.
"So what do we need?" Adam asked.
"Okay, get the fishing line, the Vaseline, the spray paint, a fish, and..." I looked over across the street and saw and orange tree and got an idea, "wait here."
I sprinted across the street to the tree and picked some oranges, my arms were full but I needed more so I ran back and dumped what I had on Adam and said, "Be right back, I need more oranges." [A/N Emilee, this is for you because you have the most random dreams. Ever.] I picked another five and ran back.
"Why did you get oranges?" Clare asked.
"I'unno, I like oranges."
"Wow Eli, seriously!" Adam laughed.
I reached down under the seat and pulled out my trusty fox hat [A/N Looking For Alaska reference, i didn't come up with the fox hat or the quote.]
Clare laughed, "What's that?"
"My fox hat."
"Your fox hat?"
"Yeah, Clare, my fox hat."
"Why are you wearing your fox hat?"
"Because no one can catch the motherfucking fox."
I jumped out, they followed holding the stuff that I told them to bring. I picked the lock and we were in. We made our way into the living room where Bianca was passed out on a pull out, empty bottles spilled across the floor with some random, half naked guy beside her. Now I could have guess what was going on here but I'd rather not think about Bianca having sex. Clare looked absolutely uncomfortable while Adam was fighting back laughter. I whispered to Adam to intertwine the fishing line around the furniture all over the room so when she got up...well let's just say she won't be getting up. Clare just had to write the E on the wall with the spray paint again and put the fish on the table wrapped in the note I had left, unsigned of course, I'm not that stupid. As for the Vaseline, that was up to me. I was going to cover the floor and all of the door handles in Vaseline making escaping and ever standing impossible. The guy Bianca was with started to wake up just as we were finishing we all turned as he screamed "HEY! WHAT THE HELL! WOAHH!" *Thump*
Bianca jolted awake and we could hear her screams as we ran back to the hearse.
"Hahaha! That was awesome! But how will this solve anything."
"Ah, Clare. It's the circle of life, and it moves us on."
"So you're saying you just can't wait to be king?" Adam joked.
"Seriously, you need to stop watching the Lion King." Clare laughed.
"I like that baby lion cub. What was his name?"
"Simba."
"Trick question! You like it too!"
Clare rolled her eyes and smiled, I starred, Adam cleared his throat and I snapped back to reality.
"So, where to next?" Clare asked. I grabbed her wrist and looked at her watch, it was eight in the morning.
"Well, we could have breakfast?" I held up an orange, she took it from me and rolled her eyes. I tossed one to Adam. I wasn't entirely sure what I wanted to do with the rest of the day. Everything was happening ahead of schedule, by now I had expected it to be noon. So I decided to just take us to the park to hang out for a bit...okay for a really really long bit.
...16 hours later [they did nothing interesting till then just...just read the story. Don't judge me -_-
So basically they got the lastest editinon of the Star because well I'll just tell you how it went:
Adam: Why did we get a news paper anyway?
Eli: I wanted to read the comics
Adam: You suck Eli.
So yeah, ON WITH THE STORY!]
It was midnight, Clare and Adam had been complaining about being tired and being passed curfew but I just gave them a shit ton of coffee and told them to tell their parents they were sleeping at a friend's house. We had one more thing to do on our awesome day out. Visit the zoo. When we pulled into the parking lot, it was pretty much deserted, the entire place I mean.
"What are we doing here?"
"Visiting the zoo."
"You mean we're breaking in! Eli that's illegal we could get in serious trouble!" Clare almost yelled.
"Don't think of it as breaking and entering, think of it as visiting the zoo for free in the middle of the night."
"There's nothing to do though! All the animals are locked up there's no food, it' kinda pointless."
"Not really, if you know your way around you can see some of the sea animals."
We spent the night there, [A/N where they used the flashlight and batteries and fed the fish to the dolphins and stuff. Ps I'm pretty sure the Toronto zoo doesn't have like whales and stuff. That's mostly Marine Land but let's just pretend and keep this as our own little secret mkay?] it's kind of sirene in a way, breaking the law with your friends waiting to get busted, that feeling is awesome. St. Clare herself even said so. We were going places, all of us. I don't know where and I don't know why sitting in the middle of the zoo starring up at the one visible star in the sky made me think this but I knew it, I felt it. Things could only get better.
This end note comes to you in parts:
Part 1- I'm sorry that I haven't updated but the day after I posted the last chapter a friend of Nerdfighteria died from cancer, her name was Esther, she was only 16. It left me severely unmotivated to write but I've gotten better since then, and if you had read my other story "If You Really Knew Me" then this isn't anything new, if you haven't read it then go read it now!
Part 2- School is starting on the 7th and I'll be taking some tough ass courses leaving me with little to no time to write. I'll try, I have an idea in my head of another Eclare one-shot.
Part 3- I just thought about something that actually made me LOL in front of my whole family. You know how in the last chapters Eli took Clare and Adam to Wal Mart to get their supplies? Well I remembered this Harry Potter JPG I have on my computer and I could only imagine Eli saying to Adam when they were picking him up, I imagine him saying, "Get in loser we're going shopping." I legit busted out laughing. Make a caption of that you say? Good idea!
Part 4- REALLY CRAPY ENDING CHAPTER I KNOW! But I wanted to finish this before school started! SORYY! My other story If You Really Knew Me is 100 times better promise! Go read that!
As Always, Rest In Awesome Esther.
Best Wishes!
