(three months pass kenji's pov)
"For this asignment you will be paired up and you wont know who your partner is untill you meet at the spot where you are suposed to meet."
Our history teacher said. I groaned. I thought that this field trip was suposed to be fun. I was handed an envelope with my name on it. I mean come on, who authorizes a field trip to an amusment park and then makes you do something eduicational? that is just sucking fun out of everything. I opened up my envelope as I started walking off. I heard dave give an exasperated sigh. Our relationship has been on the rocks lately. I dont know why but he has been extreamly stand-offish if you catch my drift. I smiled and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. I looked back down at the envelope. It was a riddle. **** it I hate riddles. *** I was begenning to hate this stupid Busch Gardens. I can understand going here because of colonial williamsburg but an amusment park?! that is just way too weird. Hmm, I think I know the answer to the riddle. here is the riddle, see if you can figure it out: who's afraid of me, no one but the little pigs three. I almost smacked myself, this was way too easy. It was talking about the roller coaster the big bad wolf. I ran over towards the direction of the roller coaster. I saw brad following me. I stopped to wait for him.
"Hey big bad where are you going?"
I asked him as he ran his fingers through his hair. Thank kami he got rid of that *** forsaken mullet. He looked a little stressed to me.
"I'm heading to the big bad wolf ride, what about you?"
"Me too, I guess that means we're partners."
I said poking him playfully in the side. He rolled his eyes at me. Looking around for another clue, we spoted another piece of paper up near the exit of the ride.
"There is no ******* way that we can get up there."
Brad said trying to jump and grab a hold of the railing so he could climb up.
"Maybe we're suposed to ride the rides?"
I suggested. Brad gave a smirk as the cart thingy pulled up into the bording area.
"Front or back?"
I grinned from ear to ear,
"I only ride in the front."
We jumped in and pulled the harnesses over our heads. We both screamed and yelled as the coaster took huge dips and turns as we gathered speed. We ran to the paper to take a look at what it said,
"Down in bonny scotland, the pufferbelly awaits you lads and lassies"
Brad read out loud. I tried to think as brad started pacing back and forth infront of me. He snapped his fingers and looked at me.
"The train, we have to ride it to the thisledown station in the scottish theamed place."
Brad said, his eyes lighting up. We quickly got to the nearest train station. It would take fifteen minutes for the train ride. sitting in one of the cars, we passed by Dave and Monica. Brad bit his lip and looked away. Once we were out of sight, I nudged brad trying to get his attention. He seemed to have a sad look in his eyes.
"Wanna spill?"
I asked trying to be conversational. Brad sighed and leaned back.
"well like monica and I broke up. It just like wasnt working out really."
I gave him a hug.
"I'm sorry Brad. Is there some way I can make you feel better?"
I asked him, hoping I could make a friend feel better.
"Yeah all that will make me feel better is to beat monica and dave."
He said with a happy grin in his eyes. we did our little hand shake.
"We will beat them, we may not win but we will beat em!"
I said making brad laugh. Brad was a pretty tough guy. no one messed with him, he scared alot of the underclassmen if they annoyed him or gave him attitude or lip. Even though he was a little on the skinny side, he had a right hook that would make any boxing coach weep for joy. He leaned back against the back of the seat, pulling his grey hoodie over his head. I wonder why dave was being so weird lately. It was like nothing I did lately pleased him, but when I didnt pay him any attention, he acted like I was the wicked witch. I dont think I will ever be able to understand the way guys think and what not.
"Hey kenji is there any one you trust as much as you do dave and joe?"
Brad asked out of the blue as we pulled up into the station and started looking for the next clue.
"What do you mean by that?"
I asked him as I looked under the tables for the paper or something.
"Well if me rob chaz or mike told you something that we knew about dave would you believe us?"
He asked as we went inside the little shop to look for something. I scanned the ceiling crossbeams with my eyes.
"It depends, some things I might have to see to believe. Here it is!"
I said calling Brad over to the top of a table with a bunch of scottish crests on it.
"Something about ancient ruins? wait, that's escape from pompeii."
Brad said as we went back to the train for it to take us to the italy part of the park.
"Why did you want to know about if I trusted you?"
I asked brad. He started picking at his black fingernails.
"Well the true reason why I broke up with monica is that she was cheating on me. with another guy who is seeing two other girls at the same time."
I looked at brad as I adjusted my ponytail.
"Explain please."
I asked, wondering where this was going.
"well the guy now has like three girls and one of them is like a really good friend of mine that I like dont want to see hurt and umm......."
Brad said started to ramble. I couldnt help but laugh.
"Big bad just get to the point."
Brad gave a hard swallow.
"Kenji, dave is like cheating on you with monica and lindsey."
Brad said really fast and in one breath. I raised an eyebrow.
"wait wait wait. Dave wouldnt do that."
I said trying to defend him.
"Kenji I know its going to be like hard to believe me but you have to. I saw it with my own two eyes. First I like caught him with monica then with lindsey and like, he's cheating on you."
I turned away from brad to watch the people who were passing by. Brad tapped me on the shoulder.
"If you dont believe me then check that out."
Brad said his voice low. He pointed at a couple that was sitting atleast five seats ahead of us joined at the lips was dave and monica. I felt anger boil up inside of me. That freaking *******! How dare he do that! I swear to mother ******* *** he is just like joe and *** hole and a **** head! I gritted my teeth together and clinched my fists up.
"I hope you still dont like monica, cuz when I'm finished with both of them, her face is going to be re-aranged."
I hissed through my teeth. Brad touched my arm lightly. I looked at him, he seemd to have a hurt expression on his face, I felt like how he looked.
"Don't like get mad and do something stupid, we will get even with them both."
Brad said. He held his hand up waiting for me to grasp it in our signature hand shake.
"You can bet it, they will so regret it."
I said grasping his hand. He had an devious look in his eyes.
"freaking kablam they wont know what hit them."
Brad said as he let go of my hand. the sun had gone started going down. then someone came over the intercom calling all of the students back to the front gate. Brad and i met the rest of the group at the front gate where Ms Hicks was giving us our sleeping assignments and room keys.
"Brad, Room 309!"
She said handing him a room key. I crossed my fingers hoping that I could room with him even though the chances of that were the oppasite of chester tattooing his whole body, slim to none.
" Kenji, room 309."
YES! I'm rooming with brad. Brad and I high fived each other, this would be so sweet. After the final room was given out, Ms Hicks told us that we were free to do what ever we wanted but we had to stay with our partners and the bus was leaving for the hotel at 10:30. I grabbed brads wrist and looked at his watch.
"this is awesome, four hours to do whatever."
I said as brad gave me a mischevious grin. I returned the grin. I saw dave and the others come up behinde us.
"So are you guys going to come with us?"
Dave asked as his eyes narrowed at brad.
"nope man, me and kenji are like going to do some extra work on this stupid scavenger hunt."
Brad said shrugging his shoulders trying to act compleatly innocent.
"You cant do that."
Dave said, his voice rising.
"She said we could do what ever, didnt say we couldnt get a head start for tomorrow."
I said backing Brad up.
"What ever dont get to aquainted."
Dave said in an icy voice.
