“The first snow of the season!” Lexicon Grant crowed, wading through the 6 inch accumulation with glee. “I am SO READY for this!”
“Watch out,” Thessy (short for Thesaurus) Grant warned the hapless Lucas mere seconds before a wad of wet slid down his cheek. “Your girlfriend lives for winter and snow ball fights.”
“Thanks,” Luke grimaced and swiped at his face with a mittened paw, “I thought her competitiveness was mostly left on the courts.”
“Nope,” Thessy grinned and side stepped calmly, once again allowing a large snow ball to hit Lucas in the face. “She holds the record for most snow balls fired of in a single minute.”
“How many is…” SPLAT. Another one.
“23.”
“Grea…” BLAM!
“Maybe you should move.”
“She likes a moving target,” he grumbled. “Good thing she’s cute.”
“I heard that!” Lexi taunted, “Just wait until we teach you paint snowball laser tag.”
“I miss summer.”
I miss spring. Snow is fun until you have to shovel it or it falls down the back of your shirt.
