Besides, rewatching the old Ninjago seasons hardly counts as a plan.” “Shush-“ Gavin threw a side pillow at his friend. “It is a wonderful plan, and you know it.” Lionel caught the pillow, then threw it back. “If you go, I won’t invite you to any more events for the rest of the month!” “Deal.” This shouldn’t be so bad… Gavin blinked as someone...
