...

"You're planning on doing WHAT?" I yelled at their faces.

We were all sitting in the living room now. Both Blake and Cole were wearing black hoodies, black sweatpants, and black shoes for some reason, while I was still in my oversized Spiderman t-shirt and baby Yoda pajama pants.

"Do I really have to say the entire thing again?" Cole whined.

Blake rolled his eyes at Cole's stupidity and pulled out his phone after hearing a buzz coming from it while Cole continued talking "I know it sounds bad but I promise it's not as crazy as it sounds-"

"Nah it actually is, maybe even crazier. But that's not stopping us from doing it, it's actually the whole point." Blake interrupted, his eyes still on the phone.

"No, that's not the whole point, the whole point is to teach that bitch Nancy Flair a lesson. But yeah, Jordan and Blake only agreed to join in on the plan because of the craziness. Peter couldn't join in on the plan because he- well, he doesn't really have an excuse, he's just lazy, and this whole plan needs more than three people." Cole explained.

"Cole you can't just vandalize some preschool teacher's house for taking your sister's teddy bear a year ago and not returning it along with the rest of the misbehaving kids' toys! And, sneaking Jordan out of his bedroom window? How the hell are you going to do that? Why can't he do that himself? Also, the whole teddy bear thing happened a year ago, you really decided to 'teach her a lesson' now? Do you realize how stupid this all is?"

"Stupid? YOU MEAN BADASS! And yes, I can and I will vandalize that bitch's house because she can't just go around punishing a two-year-old child for simply sucking her thumb by taking away Mr. Fuzzy Wuzzy and not giving him back! I HAD TO SIT THERE IN MY BOXER BRIEFS ON LIZZIE'S BEDROOM FLOOR FOR HOURS, LETTING HER DRESS ME UP AS MULTIPLE WHORY-LOOKING DISNEY PRINCESS WANNA-BES!" Cole stared at the wall in front of him, looking traumatized.

He then switched his gaze to me and continued talking "Oh, and to answer your question regarding sneaking Jojo out, his bedroom is on the second floor and it's almost impossible for him to jump out of the window without making noise or breaking his back and ending up paralyzed, so he left us a ladder in an alley near his house so we can pick it up from there and lean it against his house for him to climb down instead of jumping. And the answer to your other question, the 'why am I doing this now when she took Mr. Fuzzy Wuzzy a year ago' question, I just found her address this week with the help of my dear child, Peter." Cole explained really quickly and excitedly while giving me his signature adorable smile after finishing explaining.

I stared at him in disbelief. Are they okay? Like up there... in the head? What the hell is wrong with these boys? No, I'm genuinely curious and worried.

"So will you please, please, please go change into a black hoodie and a pair of black pants and shoes so you can help us?" Cole begged, giving me that specific puppy facial expression of his.

He didn't give me a chance to answer, yelling "THANK YOU, God bless your heart for agreeing! You're the best, Oliver! We'll give you five minutes to change while we go fetch the toilet paper, gigantic teddy bear, knife, ketchup, and spray paint." He got up from his seat and rushed to his room.

I just sat there on the couch, mouth wide open in shock and disbelief, still trying to process what the hell is going on.

Blake looked up from his phone and chuckled at the look on my face, "You better hurry up Livi, he won't hesitate to grab your clothes by himself and drag you to the car and force you to dress in the back, trust me." He got up and headed towards Cole's room too to help him grab the stuff.

I watched as he walked away. I shook my head and got up. I walked towards my room, deciding to pull a "screw it" card and just not think about all the ways this plan could go to shit.

I slipped into a pair of black sweatpants and a baggy hoodie and walked out of the room, avoiding taking a glance at the mirror because my insecure ass will no doubt stand there for a few more minutes and get carried away cursing at my oh-so-beautiful face and try hiding some of the chubbiness of my cheeks like usual. I just covered my head with the hoodie's hood and pulled it a little further to the front to hide the sides of my face because I'm self-conscious about it like that.

I grabbed my phone and walked towards the front door where Cole and Blake were waiting for me. I slipped into a pair of shoes while Cole opened the front door. I stepped out of the apartment after putting my shoes on and we all walked to the elevator after Cole locked the door with his key.

¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø

Cole went on explaining the whole plan in detail as we buckled up in his Range Rover, dividing the "mission's" tasks and giving each of us a role.

Blake and I just kept nodding along, mentally noting what he's saying. "Great! Now that the mature and boring part is over..." Cole trailed.

"LET'S GET THIS MOTHER FREAKING PARTY STARTED BITCHES!" Cole yelled at the top of his lungs, blaring 'Tik Tok' by Kesha on the speakers at a really high volume right before yelling "HASHTAG LATE NIGHT DRIVE WITH THE HOESSS!"

"FUCK YES!" Blake joined in, turning the volume up even more.

Cole then started screaming the lyric in an extremely high-pitched voice along with Kesha "CAUSE WHEN I LEAVE FOR THE NIGHT, I AIN'T COMING BACK!"

Blake then started singing the next part as Cole echoed the last words of each sentence "I'M TALKING PEDICURE ON OUR TOES..."

"TOES!" Cole screamed.

"TRYING ON ALL OUR CLOTHES..."

"CLOTHES!"

"BOYS BLOWING UP OUR PHONES..."

"PHONES," Cole screamed again before the two of them started singing the rest of the song in unison.

I stared at them as they went crazy at the drop and specific part "DON'T STOP MAKE IT POP..." in the front. Blake was jumping in his seat and Cole shaking his head like crazy, making his hair flop at the action while both his eyes are still on the road.

We're so going to die tonight.

"You guys are crazy!" I yelled over the music.

They both chuckled and answered at the same time "CRAZY FOR EACHOTHER!"

Their eyes widened when they realized they said that together and they looked at each other, silently having a whole ass conversation in their heads, then grinned and yelled together "OMG BABY! GOALSS!"

That was it for me, I burst into laughter at their facial expressions and Blake turned his head to give me a genuine smile that made my heart drop into my stomach where butterflie- no, ELEPHANTS were twerking and going crazy.

Cole glanced at me through the rearview window, our eyes locking for a minute after Blake turned his head. Cole smirked at my flustered face for a second and then started making kissy faces while puckering his lips.

I hit his seat with my knee from the back making him chuckle and go back to driving and singing.

¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸

"Fuck no! I'm not going there, do you not see how creepy it is? I wouldn't be surprised if some fifty-year-old pedophile tried to grab my pickle in that alley. With this ass of mine... I'd be dead meat in the first 0.3 seconds I go in there. How the actual fuck did Jordan survive dropping the ladder in there?" Cole asked as we stood in front of the dark alley.

I really don't blame him for being creeped out and scared shitless... the alley was extremely sketchy-looking, its appearance screamed, "A person died here".

Blake shook his head and just walked towards it, turning on his phone's flashlight. Cole and I looked at each other after watching Blake's back disappear into the alley and shrugged, we're so not going in there.

We waited for a few minutes before Cole yelled, "Did you find it?"

"Yeah! I just need to cli- MOTHER FUC- DAMN," Blake let out a yell, making Cole and I jump in our places.

"You good bro?" Cole yelled out.

"Yeah I'm fine, was just about to lose my baby-makers, but other than that, it's all chill. No biggie." Blake grunted as he made his way back towards us with the ladder in his hold.

Cole and I looked at him with confused expressions. He just looked back at us, shook his head slowly, said, "No questions asked," and walked towards a specific two-story house with Cole and I following right behind him.

After about three minutes of walking, we reached what I'm guessing is Jordan's house because Cole and Blake stepped over the backyards fence which was only a couple of feet tall, and gestured for me to do so too.

We then walked over to the wall and Blake leaned the ladder against it and held it in place as Cole climbed it and stopped when he reached what I'm guessing is Jordan's window. He knocked on the window a couple of times and it opened almost immediately after, revealing a grinning Jordan wearing all black.

They exchanged a couple of words before Cole climbed down the ladder and waited for Jordan to do so too. After Jordan's feet landed on the floor he sent me a quick wave and smile and did a handshake-pull each other right after-bro hug kind of thing with Blake.

"Did you get the stuff?" Jordan asked as we all headed back towards the alley to return the ladder that Jordan was now holding.

"Yep, though I couldn't find pig's blood so I just got ketchup instead," Cole answered and Jordan nodded as he and Blake went into the alley to place the ladder back there.

Pig's blood? Why the hell would they need pig's blood?

"Pig's blood?" I asked Cole.

He turned towards me and grinned "Yeah, we were supposed to splash it on the gigantic teddy bear and the knife it's going to hold but didn't find anywhere near us that sold it, so we're just going to use ketchup as the blood instead."

I looked at him in horror. "What the hell? Are you planning on traumatizing the poor woman?"

"That, my dear Oliver, is exactly what I'm planning on doing. She traumatizes my sister and my family and me from Lizzie's screaming and all the dress-ups... I traumatize her. It's only fair." Cole shrugged as Blake and Jordan came back without the ladder in hand.

"Ready?" Blake asked.

"Fuck yeah!" Cole exclaimed.

"Yep," Jordan answered at the same time.

All eyes averted to me, waiting for my answer. I just rolled my eyes "Whatever."

Cole skipped- yes, skipped, towards the car with Jordan walking right behind him, shaking his head. Blake looked at my annoyed expression and grinned.

"Aww, cheer up Muffin, I guarantee you this will be one of the best experiences of your life. You'll love it. And if we get caught, it's no big deal, you'll end up in a new season of 'Orange is The New Black' and find yourself banging a hot chick in the bathroom stalls on day one. Dreamlife!" He ruffled my hair like he always used to do back when he used to come over, and gestured for me to walk in front of him.

I sighed and made my way to the car, praying to God that this plan doesn't go to crap.

¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°'°º¤ø,¸

"Okay everybody, listen up!" Cole yelled as he turned off the speakers and clapped his hands excitedly.

He pointed towards the house in front of us "This house right here is the one. You're gonna get out of the car now but you need to try your best to not make too much noise, keep your hoods up just in case anyone sees us. The spray paint is only temporary so it won't be that big of a deal to her once she realizes it can be washed off easily, you guys go and start throwing the paper rolls around the trees and house while I stay back here and pour the ketchup on the teddy bear and stick the knife to its palms, I'll then follow you to the front, place the teddy bear on her doorstep and pour more ketchup on the floor around it."

Everyone nodded before Cole told us to get out of the car and start doing our jobs. Blake grabbed the bag from the trunk as Jordan and I got out of the car and walked towards the front of the house.

Blake then caught up with us with the bag in his hand. He reached his right hand inside the bag and grabbed four toilet paper rolls, throwing two towards me and two towards Jordan. He then grabbed two for him and gestured for us all to start throwing them around the house, some hung down the branches of the trees, some stuck to the bushes, and most of it dangled down the house.

I looked at the toilet paper roll in my hand, rethinking about everything we're doing. How the hell did these two possibly think that this was even a slightly good idea? Cole's clearly out of his mind, how did we let him and agree to help him do this?

This can't be right.

Ugh, screw it. I threw the paper roll again and ran towards it to throw it for the millionth time.

Let's just hope we don't get caught.

A few minutes passed and we were all done with throwing the paper rolls, the house looked crazy, toilet papers hanging around from almost every branch of every tree around it. I felt so bad for wasting six whole paper rolls like this but also felt something else inside me that gave me a feeling of excitement. Adrenaline?

It felt good. I don't know why, but knowing that you're doing something extremely dangerous and risky and idiotic felt really exciting for some reason.

Cole got out of the car holding the 'bloody' teddy bear and grinned like a maniac at the sight of our work and started to get really excited and hyper. "Damn, this looks awesome as fuck. Now we're gonna spray the red spray paint on the house and place the bloody teddy bear right over there so when she wakes up in the morning and goes outside to head to that job of hers that she clearly doesn't know how to do, she'll see this in front of her face, not expecting it at all, and then she'll freak the hell out at the sight of a gigantic bloody bear with a KNIFE and scream at the top of her lungs and wake all the neighbors up and they'll all look outside their window and read what we wrote and find out about her bitchy teddy bear-stealing self and they'll all hate her and then she'll regret everything she's done in her past and we'll all live happily ever after." Cole said way too quickly than normal while laughing in a way that sent chills up my spine.

I looked to the side at Blake and caught him looking at Cole with a worried and almost pained look. He gulped harshly before stepping towards Cole's direction and whispering something that only he and Cole could hear.

I looked up at Jordan and saw that he held a confused and almost horrified look on his face as he looked at Cole.

What was going on?

Blake said something to Cole that made him shake his head quickly and pat Blake's back, ignoring the rest of what Blake has to say and walking up to the front door with Blake looking at his back worriedly.

Jordan stepped closer to Blake and asked something in a low voice, but I was able to catch the first few words. "Is he having- Is...?"

Blake looked at Jordan and gulped again "I- I'm not sure. I hope not."

We all watched as Cole started spraying the sentence "FREE THE STUFFIES YOU EVIL PIECE OF *****" I looked at Blake and Jordan and realized that they weren't grinning like Cole, they just stared with the same worried look.

I stepped closer to them. "What's going on?" I asked Blake, feeling my heart rate accelerate out of worry and fear all of a sudden.

He looked down at me and shook his head, taking another glance towards Cole. "Nothing you should worry about, Muffin. Listen, could you follow Jordan back to the car? We're all done, I'm just gonna wait for Cole okay?"

I nodded my head and followed Jordan to the car, still confused.

I watched from inside the car as Blake placed his hands on Cole's shoulders and looked him in the eyes, telling him something while nodding his head towards the car.

Cole was still grinning and said something back. I eyed his mouth and realized that he was talking really quickly again. The both of them exchanged a few words and then started walking towards the car, Cole's manic expression long gone, and his face holding a blank expression now instead.

I watched as Blake placed the backpack in the trunk while Cole sat in the passenger's seat without saying a word. Blake shut the trunk and got into the driver's seat, closing the door behind him and starting the car, also without uttering a single word.

That's how the rest of the ride went on. No one said anything as we headed back to Jordan's house.

Once we reached Jordan's house, Blake and Jordan got out of the car to help him sneak back into his room, while Cole and I just sat in silence inside the car.

A few minutes passed and I decided to break the silence. I was getting worried. "Cole, are you okay?" I asked from the backseat.

Cole just shifted his head against the headrest and ignored me.

What the hell?

I was about to ask him why he was ignoring me when Blake opened the driver's side door and got inside the car. He started the engine and headed towards the apartment, no one saying anything for the rest of the ride.

Cole dropped his keys on the counter and walked into his room the second we unlocked the door, not bothering to wish us a goodnight like usual.

Blake and I looked at each other for a second, my face holding a very confused expression. I was about to ask him what was going on but he just shook his head and said, "Everything's fine, just go to sleep Livi. I'm sure Cole will tell you when he's ready."

He gave me a quick "goodnight" before heading to his room, leaving me standing here still confused as hell. I looked up at the clock and saw that it was 4 am.

I really have to go sleep now. School starts in three hours and I was extremely exhausted and worn out.

I brushed my teeth and slipped into my PJs before getting under my bed covers and falling asleep almost immediately after my head hit the pillow.
