The Valentine's Note

Chapter 9

"Honestly," Carla broke the silence. "I'm kind of scared for the prank tonight. I mean, living with a brother who loves pranking, it's easy to be the victim all the time. I've never really pranked anyone, it's scary."

"You're going to be fine," I said. "You're with two experienced pranksters. Besides, we're pranking Kian and Derrick, they're easy to prank. I don't know about Seth, though."

"I don't either," she mumbled.

We arrived at the same place we were at earlier. It was converted into a mini dining area with a buffet on foldable tables and plastic chairs all over the place randomly. There were people already eating. We lined up and grabbed a plate.

Since nothing looked desirable, I took a serving of spaghetti with looked edible enough. Kyla spotted Derrick and Kian and told me to follow her there.

"You can join us if you want to," Kyla offered, waiting for Carla.

Carla looked at me for a moment and her eyes flicked to where Seth was sitting, near Kian and Derrick. She gave us a tight smile. "That's alright. My friends are waiting for me."

"Okay," Kyla said with a shrug and began walking away. I glanced at Carla once and followed Kyla.

Why did she have to be end up being in the same room as us?

Sure, I liked her but I'm positive she thought Seth and I were together like the rest of the school.

"Hey," Kian said as we grabbed a chair and sat with them.

"How is your trailer?" I asked. "Is it as freaking tiny as ours?"

"Well, it is small," Derrick answered.

"Ours is so tiny," Kyla whined. "I can't even sleep comfortably."

"Oh shush," Kian said. "We are more important things to talk about. So, Ava, is there going to be a cat fight between you and Carla?"

My eyebrows pulled in. "What?"

"You know, a fight over Seth," he said casually.

I rolled my eyes. "Are you being serious right now? We are not going to fight over Seth."

"Who's not going to fight over me?"

Of course he has to arrive when we're talking about him. I shut my eyes in frustration.

"Ava and Carla," Kyla butted in. My eyes widened and I glared at her.

"Aw," Seth said, sitting next to me. "Are you going to fight for me?"

I rolled my eyes at him. "Shut up."

He laughed as I hit him on the shoulder.

Seth's friend, Mason, joined us as well.

"So you're the infamous Ava Seth's been going on about," he said as he sat next to Seth.

I had the urge to roll my eyes but I simply gave him a tight smile and shoved spaghetti in my mouth to refrain from responding.

Eventually, the topic shifted from me and Seth and we engaged into normal conversations. This Seth thing is getting out of hand. I have to do something about it soon.

Once most of us were done with eating, Mrs. Delia called out for us.

"I've got sheets here with different activities for the next few days. Can all of you line up in an orderly manner and put your names for the ones you would like to do."

Sighing, we lined up and I signed up for random activities that seemed to attract my attention and waited for Kyla to finish signing up.

"What trailer are you guys in?" Kyla casually asked once we were done.

"The second one," Derrick replied.

"We'll come over later if we can," I said.

Seth caught my eye, smirked and shot one eyebrow up. I shook my head and rolled my eyes at him. His smirk escalated into a smile.

"Alright, see you guys later," Derrick said and leaned down to kiss Kyla.

After saying bye, we went to our trailer to see Carla already there.

"Hey!" she chirped when we went in. "When are we doing it?"

"Not now, they just went back," Kyla said.

"Yes," I agreed. "We have to wait for at least 2 hours."

She sighed. "Okay."

At 1 am, I woke up a sleeping Carla and told her to get dressed. I pulled on a jacket over my tank top and pulled out 3 flashlights and 3 sharpies. I handed one of each to Kyla and Carla.

Opening up the door to our trailer, I peeked out to make sure no one was around, especially Mrs. Delia. Once I was sure no one was around, I got out and told Kyla and Carla to follow me.

Turning on our flashlights, we jogged to the other end. I constantly kept looking behind in fear that Mrs. Delia would catch us.

Reaching their trailer, all of squatted down by the door.

"Okay, I'm going to peek in to see if they're asleep or not," Kyla whispered and we nodded in approval.

She got up and slowly peeked in through the window and after a moment, she crawled back down and came near us.

"Okay, I call dibs on Derrick," she whispered. "Kian's easy to get so Carla you can get him. Plus he's a deep sleeper."

She nodded, wide eyed. "I can handle Seth."

"Whoever finishes first, just draw on Mason," Carla said softly.

All of us nodded and stood up. I tried to push open the door but as expected, it was locked.

"Let's try the back door," I murmured.

We walked to the back and I slowly tried to push the door open and it did. Bingo. Luckily, the door didn't creak. I shut my flashlight off and Kyla and Carla followed.

Seth, Kian, Derrick and Mason were fast asleep. I tiptoed towards Seth as quietly as possible while Kyla and Carla did the same.

Seth was on his stomach which made things more difficult. Mason, on the other hand, was exposed very well. I walked up to him instead and opened up my Sharpie. I leaned down and poised the marker near his nose and lightly began drawing.

Surprisingly, he was a deeper sleeper than Kian. When I finished drawing the cat whiskers, I stood and gazed at my masterpiece. I wish I could take a picture of that. I turned around to see Kyla leaving the room with Carla.

That's okay; I'm going to draw on Seth too. I walked around Mason's bed and was quite pleased that Seth's position had changed.

I leaned down and began to colour the tip of his nose. His nose scrunched up and I froze with wide eyes. Once he relaxed again, I continued and began drawing out the whiskers.

That's when it happened. I didn't see it coming at all.

His eyes opened, he smirked and then he held onto my shoulders and flipped me onto the bed with him on top of me. My eyes widened and I was about to scream but his hand was already over my mouth. I tried to get up but he was pressing me down with his weight.

How fat was he?

He leaned down and positioned his lips next to my ear and whispered, "Bad move on your side, Ava."
