And so even though I don’t want to, I scramble to my feet to get out of its way.

“Look at EllRay run,” Jared says, laughing, even though I haven’t run anywhere—yet.

Everyone waits for me to say something or do something to get even with Jared, but I just clamp my mouth shut and think about Disneyland.

It better be worth it.

“BUK, BUK, BUK,” Jared murmurs softly, but loud enough for everyone to hear.

“Dude, you owe him lunch,” Kevin says, and SWOOP! He grabs the sandwich from Jared’s big square paw and hands it over to me.

“Oops,” I say, and then I drop Jared’s sandwich on the ground, and I stomp on it. “Sorry, Jared,” I tell him, not sounding sorry at all.

Jared is halfway to his feet, looking really, really mad, and also hungry, but there is no way he can complain without looking dumb in front of everyone, including a few girls—Emma, Heather, and Annie Pat—who are watching us from a nearby table with worried eyes.

After all, Jared made a “mistake,” spilling his milk, and I made a “mistake,” dropping the sandwich on the ground and stomping on it, so we’re even, right?

But I know that somehow, somewhere, I’m going to have to pay double for this.

I just hope it’s not until next week, that’s all.
