Chapter thirty three - Penelope.

The sun shined in my face through the curtains, waking me up instantly. My eyes fluttered open and I moaned quietly as I turned over to see Zack lying on his stomach, his bare back showing and the sheets covering the bottom half of him.

I stared at him for a while, wondering what he was dreaming about. I honestly had the best time last night, I forgot about Maddison and Sean. Molly's friends were so nice, I was glad she invited me. Rolling over, Zack's eyes opened slowly locking them with mine. "Morning, sunshine." He pecked the top of my forehead while adjusting to the light.

A loud knocked echoes our room, startling us. "Come on you two love birds," Luke chuckled, "breakfast is ready!"

Zack put on a t-shirt, covering his stomach while I just stayed in my tank top and pyjama shorts. He took my hand and we both went downstairs to meet the others.

"Do any of you girls want Oreos before Justin eats them all?" Luke offered, making my mouth water at the round shaped treat.

Zack declined but, I couldn't give up that offer. We all greeted each other and all the girls took an Oreo to eat except that boys who stood in the kitchen with a smirk. All of us took a bite of the Oreo, my mind falling suspicious and then regret straight after. "Ew! Oh my god! What's in this!" Lisa shrieked as she rushed to the kitchen sink to spit it out.

The rest of us soon realize that this was no joke. It tasted like toothpaste. "Shane!" Molly screamed as she spat it out onto the floor.

The boys began to burst out laughing, holding their stomach and high fiving each other. We all spat out the bite of the Oreo in the sink and rinsed it down the drain. "Are your teeth clean yet?" Luke joked as they still continued to laugh. I rinsed my mouth out and us girls were glaring at the idiots who pranked us. Zack included.

"And this is why we don't bring boys." Lisa mumbled, Daphne nodding with a disgusted look on her face.

"How did it taste, sweet pie?" Zack approached me, arms folded and a huge grin plastered all over his smug face.

I punched him playfully. "Oh, it's on."

So, the toothpaste camouflaged into the white stuff that the Oreo had inside, tricking us into thinking it was edible. Zack snuck out when I fell asleep to help the guys out, making me smile because he had made new friends here even though they were pranking us.

"It was probably Shane's idea. He is the prankster of the group." Molly glared as we all sat inside the living room while the boys were outside enjoying Mother Nature.

"Which is why we should get them back." I suggested, an evil plan coming out.

The girls agreed. "Penelope's evil side is coming out." Amber chuckled, making me grin evilly.

"What can I say? I have three older cousins who would prank me as a kid all the time." I chuckled, remembering the memory. "I've learnt from the best." I hadn't thought about that in a long time, it made me smile that at some point in my life, I was happy.

"Okay, has everybody got phones?" I asked with a grin. What a stupid question.

They all took out their iPhones and placed them on the table where we sat. "Perfect," I said with an evil grin, "let the prank begin."

"Boys!" Laura shouted in excitement as they all came running inside looking sweaty. "Gross!"

They all grabbed a drink from the fridge as we tried not to giggle. "Hey, why don't we take turns in sleeping upstairs," Molly causally suggested, "you boys can sleep in the rooms, we'll sleep down here."
