V3 ch141 @ Shasta HS (1)

We showed up at the public park, got off the bus and spread out to stretch our legs. Noah and I walked to the public restrooms, and came back to the coaches passing out the food. We took our share and found a spot on the empty playground. Noah ran back to the bus to go get his bag of snacks. He shared his with me and said we could share mine on the way back home. 

"I'm only going to believe you if you give me half the cookies now." I squinted at the first bag he had reached out for. 

Noah laughed. He took half of the cookies out and handed them over. "Don't worry. I wouldn't ever short you. Now the twins..." He squinted and showed a wide grin. "They deserve all the cheating in the world."

I laughed. Noah must have been picked on a lot as a kid. Which I can believe easily after only knowing the twins for a year. Noah spent most of lunch telling me about him versus the twins in their younger years. He was at a disadvantage for most of it unless Zeke interfered.
