Friendship Drama Funny

When Todd was told he would get to go to a Malibu resort for only $6 he was like ���hell yes!��� Todd not only needed a break, he NEEDED a break. He boarded the flight to Malibu with the biggest smile on his face. If he had known he would be stuck bunking with eccentric Abigail Winchester....Todd might have not gone.

���Hi! I���m checking in for hotel room...6B?���

���hi, mr....Todd Anita?���

���Thats me alright!���

The key was given to Todd and he handed over his $6. He rushed to his room, desperate to unpack and hit the heat. Thats when Todd noticed there were two beds. Of course Todd thought this peculiar, but maybe it was just how ever room was set up? He was getting this room for a deal after all. Todd continued unpacking his things, humming a lil tune as he did so. He was sashaying to the bathroom when he the door opened. He heard footsteps and peeked from around the bathroom door. It was a lady, she was tall, thin, and wore a ridiculously large sun hat. She elegantly strode towards Todd���s bed and proceeded in kicking his stuff to the floor���...

She bounced up and down on the bed a little, humphing here and there. After a couple seconds she rose to her feet, left the room and came back with a vibrant purple suitcase. She plopped it onto the bed, started unpacking the things, and started humming to herself.

���ahem. AHEM.��� Todd coughed out after minutes had gone by.

���Gazumtite.���

���What?���

The lady looked at him, raised her eyebrows in a cocky manner, and repeated.

���Gazumtite.���

Todd, infuriated by the absence of sense, scowled so deep it looked like the Grand Canyon.

���Who are you?!��� Todd asked, borderline shouting at the peculiar figure lounging on HIS bed.

���I am miss Abagail Winchester. Et toi?���

���Et toi? ET TOI? What on gods green earth does ET TOI mean?!���

���you spit it out like poison in a wine glass. It means ���and you?������ Abagail adjusted her hat, crossed her legs, and straightened. The simple acts of getting comfortable intimidated Todd to a means no man had ever done before.

���I AM TODD!��� Todd shouted at the top of his lungs. He then proceeded to March out in navy blue swim-shorts and flip flops.

���nice to meet you, todd.��� Abagail remarked as he left the room.

The pool was quiet, and as Todd settled into a lounge chair on the pools edge a server came to him and offered a slice of cheese and bread.

���oooooh! Fancy!��� Remarked Todd as he gobbled down his third. The server, obviously disgusted at this point, moved quickly to the newest guest to be visiting the poolside. It was a pretty blonde woman who seemed to reflect the sun. Todd whistled, and the girl cast a glance over at Todd. He smiled, waved, and winked, but the girl turned, and walked, away. Todd didn���t know why, but he had a weird feeling it wasn���t him that had driven her off���.. Tod

Todd looked behind him and met eyes with...nobody. It was Todd who had driven off the lovely pool maiden. Oh well, there were plenty of girls in the pool. Todd looked at the empty still waters. soon. Soon there would be plenty. love tis a waiting game. Todd sat alone by the pool for quite some time, when he finally decided to go change back into clothes and check out other places. For example, not the pool. As Todd sauntered into his room he remembered he was not alone. But was he? He did not see the peculiar roommate around. Todd let out a sigh of relief and dashed to his items skewed across the floor, as though his collector soaps were basic rubbish. He slipped on a Hawaiian shirt and some nice cargo shorts. After practicing the essentials-popped collar, flip flopping, and some nice shades-Todd was ready to check out the food Palace. (It was just a cafeteria). He walked into the food ���palace��� and saw rows of simple benches and tables. The food was laid out in buffet format and consisted of slaws and rolls.

���Gag Me with a spoon!��� Exclaimed Todd as he picked up a tray and filled it with three rainbow slaws and one bun. He settled into a seat and started sopping Up some of the slaw juices leaking around his plate with his bread. He was mid gag swallow when Abagail strode into the cafeteria, a chicken fleet following close behind.

���slaw slop? I���m not an ANIMAL. c���mon guys, let���s go get some REAL food.���

With that the mysterious Abigail and her chicken accompaniments left the room in search of other foods.

���Too good for slaw huh?��� Todd whispered aggressively, even though he himself wished he could leave and find different food too. Todd noticed as he slowly munched the cold eggs that several people were going down the hall. Nobody had gone into the cafeteria except Todd. Curious, Todd left his plate on the table and went to go see what the fuss was all about. He didn���t see anything extremely exciting, but as he continued to walk with the crowd he realized they knew where food was. Good food! Todd started getting giddy and rushed to the front of the crowd. He reached the head of the line and saw it went through a doorway, very concealed aside from the mass of people. Todd pushed ahead and met eyes with Abagail. She was frying fresh eggs from her chicken posse. They smelled amazing, and Todd could see why there was a wait���.. j

He started to retreat, he didn���t want to spend ANY time with Abagail, especially when it was Todd time. He walked back to the cafeteria, peeking in rooms here and there but never really having the nerve to go in. He cast a glance at his plate when he got there, but just didn���t feel hungry anymore. He sulked into his room, splaying across the bed he was left with. If he had gone to the window he would���ve seen a group Of people in the pool, holding up floaties to spell Todd. Sadly he did not look, and eventually their arms grew tired. After awhile he heard a knock on the door.

���....hello?��� Todd said unenthusiastically.

���Hi, everyone was wondering if you wanted to hang out at the pool...?���

���Abagail?���

���yes?���

���Go to the pool. nobody likes me here.���

���Well they���re having a party and invited you so they can���t possibly HATE you.���

���you mean....they like me?!���

���well...no. Not really. But you���re mediocre!���

���hmm. I���ll take it!���

���Ok! then let���s go party!���

Todd bounced off the bed, flung on his swimsuit, opened the door and shivered for a minute.

���You still are scary.���

���That is a matter of opinion,��� responded Abagail, already gliding down the hall to the pool. Todd ran to catch up. He was kind of glad Abagail was there.
