Alexandra's mom said she'd drive us to the laser tag place. Alex and her mom picked me up and we drove downtown.
"I'm so glad that we could do this," Alex said, "it's a good way to take our minds off the concert.
"Yeah, it is, but I still can't help being disappointed about not getting to see Ike, " I said.
"Of course I can't blame you, I really wanted to see Taylor perform," Alex said.
We entered the mall where we were to go lasertagging, and glanced around at the various stores, before we went to go laser tagging.
***********************************************************
Meanwhile, two blonde heads ducked behind a corner.
"Is it them?"
Then in response,"Of course it's them! She just called her Alex!"
"Whoooa. They said they were going lasertagging but I had no idea they meant here!"
***********************************************************
~*10 minutes later in the laser tagging place*~
Alex and I wanted to play together as a team against another team, so we were paired up with to other individuals. But we all had our helmets on, so we couldn't see each other's faces.
As Alex and I entered the glow-in-the-dark room, we checked out our opponents. One of them was tall, as well as the other, only a few inches shorter. When we started I paniced and ducked behind a barrel only to find Alexandra standing right next to me.
"Hey Alex!" I whispered, "I want to see Ike so bad, and I know how much you were looking forward to seeing Tay. So are you still bummed about not getting tickets to the concert?"
Alex just nodded in response.
That's when Alex shot me (with the laser gun I mean).
"Hey!" I exclaimed, "you're not Alex!"
Alarmed, I shot the intruder, and fled to find the REAL Alex.
**********************************************************
Over on the other side of the room, Alex jumped behind a glowing box, just missing a shot aimed towards her. She squatted down, and since it was so dark, she assumed that the tall person next to her was Jenn.
"Hey, Jenn, these guys we're playing are good. Don't you think so?"
The person I was talking to was not Jenn because when she stood up and pulled off her helmet, I discovered that she was a HE. My breathe caught in my throat when I realized that Isaac Hanson was standing in front of me.
My mouth dropped open in surprise and I accidentally pulled the trigger on my laser gun and Isaac shouted, "Hey! What did you do that for?"
"Sorry," I stammered, extremely embarrassed. I didn't know what to do...I had to find Jenn! "I have to go find my friend. Sorry!" With a red face, I turned and ran, but I couldn't find Jenn anywhere!
Where was she? I forgot about the game, and spent the last few minutes of the game looking for my friend. Just as I spotted her behind a bright orange crate, the game ended and we were forced to go outside.
When we finally met up, in unison, we bursted out, "you'll never believe who I just saw!"
Just then, the opposite team came up to us and pulled off their helmets. Blonde hair flowed out.
"Hi," they said, "are you guys Jenn and Alex?"
"Y-yes," we managed to say.
Our shock drained away as we slowly began to realize what was happening.
We were meeting Hanson.
