“Nothing, he seems really friendly.”
Her eyebrows raised. “Too friendly if you ask me.”
“I’m going to get a tube.” Blake left.
“Oh, man, she is fuming,” Sandy said as her fingers curled around my arm.
“Yeah, she really doesn’t like me.”
“That song was epic, though. I didn’t know he could sing like that.”
“Me neither. But it was the best humiliation I’d ever experienced.”
Laughter bubbled out of her. “I can imagine.”
Chloë said something to Blake, and he waved it off as he walked toward us with the tube dangling from his arm.
Sandy laughed with a tight lip. “Prada,” she yelled and got a glare from Chloë and the girl next to her. My eyes skidded to the snow and I could see a smile forming on Blake’s lips.
This is going to be fun.
“You ready?”
“It’s steep.”
“Come on, it’s going to be fun.”
“We are going to tip.”
“No, we won’t. Come.” He sounded hyper and I could imagine that he lived for sports like this.
I followed him to the edge of the hill, and he sat down on the tube first.
“You guys are going to tip.”
“We’ll be fine, Jace.”
They all laughed as Sandy took out her phone. I raised my eyes at her and she shook with laughter.
Blake pulled me down on top of him, and I sort of crushed into him. I laughed as I tried to get a proper position, without crushing important parts.
“You ready?”
“I think so?”
“Let’s do this!”
“You ready?” the dark hair guy from yesterday asked right behind us as he was ready to push the tube.
“Do it,” Blake said.
He pushed us down the slope and a yelp left my lips as Blake hollered his excitement.
Wind burned my cheeks as the crisp air with a slight metallic scent reached my nostrils. My stomach dipped, and I pressed my face into Blake’s chest, fisting his jacket. I had to admit, his grip around my body was quite firm.
My heart pounded as we sped down the slope.
We turned a few times around, and every time I shrieked, making Blake’s excitement grow.
