Chapter 126: Chapter 126
"It’s not arrogance if it’s a fat" Lily laughed and watched as Adrian grabbed the bow and arrow, he stood with his left foot in front of his right, elbows in, placed the arrow on the bow and pulled them up, he aimed and then shot. The arrow whizzed perfectly and landed right in the middle of the target. Lily smiled at his shot "Impressive" she pulled said taking the bow from Adrian and grabbing an arrow from the table. She turned with her back to the target and jumped in the air spun and shot the arrow which pierced Adrian’s right in half. She turned and grinned as the twins announced a point for us.
The next challenge was a bunch of obstacles and at the end was a bag, he first person to get the bag won. Jacob was chosen from our team and Ethan from the other.
"Nate" Lily said "The next Challenge will take two people, you and Ren will play it. Ren is going to be blind folded and have to walk through obstacles while you guide her and the same will happen to Adrian and Dave. It’s your job to make them lose"
"How is it my job?"
"Distract Adrian" Lily said in a duh tone but I looked at her confused she rolled her eyes "fine I’ll demonstrate" she looked up and saw Ethan and Jacob getting ready now that the obstacles were put up. She walked till she was a bit away from Ethan an sighed "God it’s too hot" she said grabbing the hem of her shirt and pulling it--a bit to slow-- over her head, arching her back in the process. I saw Ethan look to the side and freeze as he saw her, I also noticed a small, barely noticeable baby bump and wondered how far was she. Lily grabbed the tie of her hair and puled it away making her hair tumblr around her shoulders and then innocently let the rubber band fall, she bent and slowly picked it up. all the while Ethan watched hungrily, not noticing that the twins had told them to go.
Ethan snapped out of it when he hear the guys yell for him to run and he threw Lily a look that told her he knew what she did and ran trying to catch up to Jacob but he had already got the bag. Lily laughed and walked to me "That’s how"
"Wait, you can do that but I dont think it’ll work wih me. I don’t have that effect on Adrian"
Lily rolled her eyes and reached for the rubber band I was using to pull my hair up, she pulled it away and let it fall and then grabbed my shirt and tied it so my stomach showed. She then bent and grabbed my pants and tore them till they were shorts. I yelped and stared at her in shock "There" she said "Wait til Adrian sees you, we’ll win this easily"
I was about to argue when the twins announced it was the last challenge, we were tid two to two and this was the deal breaker. Ren and Dave got ready and me and Adrian walked to where we were supposed to stand. Adrian looked at me and froze. He cleared his throat and turned his head to concentrate on the twins who told us to start. I knew it wasn’t gong to work
I started guiding Ren the best I could knowing we were going to lose but then I noticed Adrian stealing glances at me and then trying to concentrate making Dave hit a few of the obstacles placed, I smiled to myself Ren was in the lead and with a sudden burst of confidence I stretched, standing on my toes and arching my back completely. I waited till Adrian had his face completely turned before yelling "To your right Ren and then straight ahead" and watched Ren cross the finish line
I winked at Adriana and cheered with the rest knowing our team won. I ad to admit it was the most fun I had in...forever.
"You know he asked us to do all this for you right?" Jim said from behind me. I turned and saw him looking at me with a grin "We didn’t have a problem with that of course, we’re always looking for a way to have fun. But he wanted you to just let loose for a day. All of this was for you"
Dave walked away and I stared at him in disbelief. Adrian asked him to do this? I looked at where Adrian was standing and smiled "for me" I mumbled to myself and decided that Adrian made my life brighter.

Nate’s P.O.V.
"Nate!"" I felt someone nudge me "Nate! Are you okay?" I opened my eyes to see Patrick’s face staring down at me "You’ve never overslept so I used the spare key and came in, you have a bit of a fever. You should stay home today"
"Everyone is allowed to oversleep, Patrick" I said groggily feeling as if my body weighed like a ton of bricks. I did feel like crap but he didn’t need to know that "You worry too much. Now leave so I can get ready for work"
"Are you really going to work looking like a zombie? You’ll infect the kids"
"No, even if I was sick I know how to handle myself. I used to keep taking care of Gabriel even when I was sick and managed not to make infect hi too."
