The Sun & The Moon

Homework and Hidden Talents

Azzy's Pov

Me and Ally were in the practice room with Austin, Dez and Jax.

And Dez was shaking some cans of sodas.

I hate this game.

"The rules are simple. First, we shake up this can of carbonation extreme, the most carbonated drink in the world..." Dez started.

"Then we shut our eyes and mix them up." Austin continued.

We closed our eyes, while Moon mixed up the cans.

"And now, we open them to see who gets sprayed in the face. I'll go first." Dez said.

Then he chose one of the cans from the five cans.

We he got the can, I flinched when he opened it. But nothing happened.

"Whew. Me next." Austin said.

He chose from the remaining four. And again, I flinched when he opened it. But still, nothing happened.

"Ah! I feel so alive!"

None of them will be alive any longer if I get sprayed again.

"My turn!" Jax said.

He chose his can from the three that were left.

I flinched, but nothing happend when he opend his can.

"Whoo! All right, Shorty." Jax said.

And then there were two.

I was really hesitant, but eventually chose one of the two.

And I was ready to get sprayed again, but when I opened it, nothing happened.

"Yes!" I cheered. The boys did too.

Then we turned to Ally.

"Your turn, Ally." Me and Austin said.

And the four of us stepped back, leaving Ally to the last can.

"Yeah, I'm not opening that can." Ally said.

"What?"

"Oh, come on!"

"Please!"

"That's the whole point!"

We were all complaining, when Trish walked in.

"Guess who has to do a book report! On some stupid book called 'The Lonely Maiden's Journey'. This is horrible! What am I supposed to do?" Trish asked.

I actually like that book.

"This might sound a little crazy, but maybe read the book, then write a report about it?" Ally said.

"Eh. Anyone have any better ideas?"

Nope.

"Oh! You could do what I always do- instead of writing book reports, I make a video about the book, and I always get a good grade." Dez said.

"He let's me act in them. Last week, I got to be Antony and Cleopatra. Whoo!" Austin said.

He and Dez high-fived.

"That explains a lot." I said, looking at them.

"Why didn't you ask me to be Cleopatra?" Ally asked.

"You?"

How rude.

"Well, Trish. Maybe Dez can help you with your assignment?" Jax said.

"Huh. That's not a bad idea. Dez can direct, and I can star in it!" Trish said.

Let's see how this goes.
