Hannah did not appreciate being rushed at all. "You're lucky I am doing this at all." Let's not get cocky now m'kay! It wasn't that hard? Frogs were gross and she was WILLINGLY touching it... why wasn't he getting that this was not just a big deal, but rather a huge deal? "If you laugh so help me..." Oh yes, she was still going to threaten him because that was how Hannah Lockwood rolled. She could tell he was trying to hold in a laugh, but at least he was holding it in.
Just when she was thinking that the worse of it was finally over the frog went and did that...
"EWWWW!! EW!" Did that long nasty tongue really just touch her cheek? "It, it, it... tried to kiss me." Annnnd she was flailing again and making high pitched screeching noises that she was sure merepeople couldn't even understand. In a blind panic, the seventh year rushed to the end of the lake and placed her cheek in the water and scrubbed until it hurt.
"ADIIIII!!!!"
Adi was rather enjoying himself. Seeing Hannah squirm uncomfortably. Revenge is a dish best served cold, yes? And Gus's amphibian skin was cold. Hehe. He rolled his eyes at her comment.
"I don't see how I'm lucky,'' he told her. He wouldn't care if she did it or not as he had not expecting them to ever communicate ever again.
Gus's action just made everything even better and far more hilarious. Adi believed he had never laughed so heartily in his life before! He just stood there laughing and enjoying Hannah's reaction. Gus was croaking away as if he was the happiest toad in the world.
"Hannah, I think Gus likes you,'' Adi said in a singsong voice.
Still laughing, he watched in amusement as Hannah rushed off towards the water. Had he gone too far? No, not him. Had Gus gone too far? Meh. Who cared right now? But still he had better protect his toady friend from the mean one. Stashing Gus deep into his pocket, he ran off after Hannah as she SHOUTED his name. Uh oh. Was she going to hex him again?
