The Adventures of Rania Lords: Jake... Sneak Peek
It's Sunday morning and I'm super tired because of the sleepover but it was totally worth staying up. Right now I'm in my bed, nearly falling asleep and writing, and still waiting for Arnold to text me. So in the meantime, I'll tell you all the details on the sleepover.
It was six o'clock when April came over to my house to pick me up. I had gotten all my sleepover supplies (four bags of Cheetos, one family sized bag of Doritos, five Capri Sun pouches, a sleeping bag with pillows, a flashlight, my iPod, and panda pajamas with an Eleventh Doctor plushie) and hurried into her car. In the car was April and Angel, smiling in a weird way.
"Are you guys ok?" I asked.
"Yeahhh." They both said, eyeing each other.
"Ok, what's wrong?"
"We sort of...-" Angel said, April continues.
"Invited Arnold to come."
"Oh... Uhhh, it's ok." I responded, blushing a bit.
Great. I thought. It might of been awkward if a guy came to an all girl sleepover.
"Sooo, what details do you have with your BF?" April said.
"Uhhhh... He's working on G.E.E.K projects soooo I don't have much."
"Oh..." April said, sinking into her seat.
Awkward...
We stand in awkward silence until we get to Arnold's front door.
"Hey guys." He said.
"Hey..." We all said back, nervously.
"You guys ok?" he asked.
"Yeahhhh..." Angel and April said, I shake my head awkward. More silence.
"Did all of your emotions get deleted by a Cybermen?" He acted goofy like, we giggled.
"If you did, please don't put me in a parallel universe, that would be my absolute HEARTBREAKING."
"WTF!" April said (she recently watched that episode and was heartbroken for two days), the rest of us laugh. Arnold's Doctor Who jokes were just enough to make us forget the awkwardness.
Once we got there, April led us to her room and said we could watch some Steven Universe.
"My Mom and Dad are catching up with a T.G.I.T (Thank God It's Thursday) television series so we can't watch Doctor Who on the big TV." She added.
"Which one?" Angel asked, I thought the same thing too.
"You don't want to know." April replied, then shivers.
I don't want to know anymore. I thought.
I was glad we actually watched Steven Universe because I was really behind; The current episode I was on was Coach Steven and I needed to watch the eighteen remaining episodes I had left. Around eight o'clock April's living room was available so we decided to get all our snacks and official start the sleepover (I think that's how it works in sleepovers), and we start from this beginning of series eight. April and Angel had been really enthralled in the episodes, but I couldn't because I was being "bothered" by Arnold. He kept distracting me, but I sort of didn't mind and kinda of liked it. He said a bunch of jokes and it was adorable in a weird way. We did get shh's a few times and we did until the Doctor said a joke.

Around midnight, we had to go to sleep so we went up to April's room and secretly put on the TV., but first, we had to change and brush our teeth. I spent a long time in there because I was really embarrassed by my PJ's. They had a panda in sunglasses, three facing and said "Gonna PAN that DA, BOOOOYYY!"

I was going to put a really big coat on but I left it in my bag. I slowly open the door and look in front me. Nothing. I mistakenly turn around and see Arnold. Uh-oh!
I should of went last. I thought.
"Uh, what are wearing?" He said, hiding his smiling mouth.
"Sign... It's my... PJ's..." I reply, he chuckles.
"You BETTER not post this on Instagram!" I said.
"Okay, but FYI, you look adorable in it." He said, then bringing me over to April's room. Before he opens the door, he sends a text to someone and once he gets a text back we go inside. Oddly, no one made a comment on my PJ's (which I think Arnold texted everyone not to comment). Around one A.M, April and Angel were asleep, but Arnold and I were still awake.
"Hey!" He whispered, I was going to say hey back, but the TV beat me to it with the Hey Arnold! intro.
"What they just say." I whispered, he chuckled.
"So, you wanna have a contest?" He suggested.
"Depends, what's the prize?"
"The loser has to post a picture of them on Instagram with a big stuffed panda and wear a panda hat and your pajamas."
"HEY!" I quietly yelled.
"You got to admit, those are some embarrassing pajamas."
"I know, but what do I have to do to get YOU in this?"
"Stay up longer than me."
"That should be easy."
"You wish." He teased.
"Oh really? Then why don't we just watch... PUBLIC TELEVISION." I said, reaching for the remote.
"Hey, no cheating."
"Fine."
