The following morning John told me right as I was leaving for school that He and Mom decided instead of waiting to leave Friday night, we’d be leaving Thursday after school and after they got home from work. Of course all this did was make me even more excited as I raced out of the house and ran half way to school. I’d of probably run the whole way there had I not met up with Chris near the park. I told Chris the good news, but he didn’t seem too happy for me.
“Don’t worry! I’ll be back before School starts on Monday. I promise!” I said, faking like I was going to give him a push.
That seemed to appease him and we continued on to school. As always, when we got onto school grounds, Chris went his way while I went mine.
“You know, someday I need to ask him why he always enters the school from around back.” I said to myself.
During school, I managed to get a few minutes to slip into the school library, so that I could email Joey and let him know we were coming. I was shocked, when he replied within minutes that his Mom had told him about it that very morning. We started making plans via email for everything we were going to do that weekend. Of course, we would need a month to do it all, but it helped make the remainder of the week almost bearable.
