I looked up as a crumpled piece of paper came out of no where and landed on the book before me. My immediate reaction was to glance at Mrs. Kop, our History teacher, checking to see if she had noticed. She hadn’t. She continued reading out of the book, oblivious to the distracted class. I smoothed out the slip and immediately recognized the handwriting. I turned around to look at him, a grin on my face. He winked at me. I returned to the note. He was asking for my confirmation, if I would be going to the Quebec Winter Carnival in Canada.
“Do I really have to?” I scribbled under his sentence. I was playing with him; I had already decided to go. Before I could pass the note to him another landed on the desk.
“Replying with a no or anything vague isn’t an option”, he had written. I rolled my eyes at his words.
“Alright, I’m coming. Obviously”, I jolted down, took a quick look at Mrs. Kop, turned around and tossed the note at him. It hit him on the chest. Fitz chuckled, taking the note. Fitz has always been my best friend. Tall, athletic and grey eyed, he was one of the most adventurous boy I had ever met. Maybe that is why we were so close, we both liked to call ourselves daredevils.
The festival was on twenty first of December, a Friday. As my thoughts wandered to my birthday which would be the day after the festival a splitting headache made me grab the edge of my seat. What is on Friday? I shook my head lightly. The headache had disappeared leaving behind a light throbbing. What was I just thinking? I shook my head again, trying to see through the confused thoughts. I heard the bell ring, signaling the end of class.
