BRADLEY's POV
We were walking down the corridors when my phone buzzed. I checked, and saw Peyton's name flash on the screen, saying he left a message.
Peyton: Keep Sabrina busy for us, we have a few things to plan for her party. We'll tell you later, just hang out with her for the rest of the day.✌✌
Okay, this isn't that bad, except for the fact I have know idea how to do this.
I groaned a bit, and replied.
Me: What am I even supposed to do with her??
Momentarily he texted back.
Peyton: Go take her to a concert or something
Me: Really Peyton? Like as if I can
Peyton: IDEK, just keep her a bit busy from noticing we ain't anywhere, just don't let her go to Row's house
Me: Ugh, fine
Peyton: Thanks
I slid my phone back in my pocket, and continued my way out school with Sabrina.
"So B, do you have any plans this afternoon?" I asked
"Not really, why?" She said
"I was just wondering if you wanted to do something." I replied, shoving my hands in my pockets as we walked down the street
"Well I was planning on going around town a bit, I need a few stuff for the decorations at the Award Ceremony." She said
"Well I don't mind coming with you." I scratched the back of my head
"Great, thanks." She grinned
----
We went to the mall, went in the stores and bought some ribbons, balloons, and other stuff. When we finished, we headed back to school and gave it to Mrs. Sanchez who was in charge with the decorations of the event.
"Thank you so much Ms. Carpenter, Mr. Perry." She smiled
"No problem Mrs. Sanchez." We both said in unison
"Well you two better run along, the last bell will ring in a few minutes, I don't want the two of you to get in detention." Mrs. Sanchez placed down the box of decorations beside her desk
"Okay, see you tomorrow Mrs. Sanchez." Sanbrina nodded, as we headed out the office
"So, wanna gon get ice cream?" I said
"Sure, why not." She answered
We went to a nearby ice cream shop, the one we always go to when we usually get out of school.
"I'll have rocky road please." I told the cashier guy
"I'll have what he's having." Sabrina giggled
She was about to pay for hers when I immediately handed my money to the guy.
"Bradley, I can pay for it you know." She pouted
"Yeah, but I paid for it first so you don't have to pay." I said, taking my change
"Fine, but next time I'll pay so we're even." She sighed, rolling her eyes
They handed us our ice cream, and we headed out walking around the park. We sat at a bench, enjoying our ice cream.
"Bradley, can you be honest with me." Sabrina said
"Sure, about what?" I gulped a bit
"Did Rowan and the others told you to keep me busy?" She asked
"Uh." I didn't answer "No..."
"You're not that hgood at lying as you are with baseball." She chuckled "Don't worry, I won't tell them I know, this happens every year so there's this least expectation it'll happen."
"So even before I was here, this was already a thing?" I questioned, taking a spoonful of ice cream
"Yeah, Rowan loves throwing everybody a surprise party." She nodded
"Cool." I said
SABRINA's POV
"Uhm Bradley." I giggled
There was ice cream dripping down the side of his mouth
"What?" He said clueless
"Wait."I took out a tissue, and wiped off the ice cream on him
"Thanks." He smiled
We spent another hour at the park, and the sun was already down, I stood up and told him I had to go. He caught up.
"So, can I walk you home?" He asked
"I'm fine going alone you know." I told him
"Come on, I don't mind doing it everyday." He grinned "I enjoy your company, and I know you enjoy it too."
Its true that I do, though there are times we're totally silent or awkward, and I just don't want that. I don't even know why it happens.
"So, can I?" He said
"Well I guess I don't have any choice, we're already 4 streets away from home." I pointed out
"Well let's take the long way then." He changed my direction, and made me went pass the street I had to take
"Seriously?" I said
"The long way makes us take longer to get to your house, right?" He chuckled
I shook my head, gave him a little smile, and said "You're an idiot."
When we got to my house, which took us about 45 minutes to get here coz we took the long way, Bradley said he has to go. I nodded at him and went up to my room. I laid down on my bed for a while, then I started to feel all sleepy, and its just 7:05 pm. Well you can never be too early to sleep. I yawned, and was on my way to shower when !my phone began to ring.
"Hey B." Its my perky best friend
"Hey, where have you been?" I asked, although I know where they are coz I can see all of the through my window
"Uh, we're-" she stuttered "at the park, yeah, the park coz Corey needed leaves for something..?"
Even if I didn't know, I won't buy that excuse.
"Okay..?" I said with a tone of confusion "Well I gotta go, I feel tired from today, see you guys tomorrow."
"Bye." I saw her grin from past the street
I opened my window, and yelled "Hey Rowan!"
I caught her attention "Oh." I can see she mumbled
"FYI, I didn't buy that excuse." I said once more, and closed my window, as I saw Corey, Peyton, G, and Paris reveal themselves
I went and took a shower, then momentarily after drying my hair, I went to sleep.
