CHAPTER FORTY, llama drama

Since Adam and Chase were too busy looking after Dewey the Dingo, Emilia caught up with Bree and Leo as they walked into the hall, seeing all sorts of things set up. "What's going on in here?" Bree questioned, before looking at the signs. "Domino Domination?"

"I don't know anything about dominos, but if it means gym class is cancelled, I'm all for it." Leo retorted, before Caitlin then walked in. "Oh, hey Caitlin." Bree greeted as the three walked towards the girl who stopped at a table. "Are you doing the domino domination?"

"Doing? No. Annihilating every competitor that comes in my way? Yes!" The girl answered, making Emilia raise a brow. "You may not know this, but I come from four generations of domino-droppers." Furrowing his brows, Leo then questioned. "And that's something you're proud of?"

Caitlin pulled out a medal from underneath her jacket. "I got stuck with second place last year. If it happens again, I'll have to shave my head, move to the desert and hope the coyotes will accept me as one of their own." She explained.

Emilia pursed her lips. "That's something a stable person would say." She muttered sarcastically.

"So, how do these competitions work?" Bree wondered before Caitlin explained. "You get points for number of dominos toppled and originality. My designs are super original 'cause, well, there's only one me!"

"Amen to that." Leo sarcastically chimed in, before the girl turned to face them. "Do you guys want to do it with me? My teammates just bailed. They couldn't handle the pressure." Caitlin asked, making Bree laugh. "The pressure of dominos?"

Caitlin sent her a look, making the three of them stop laughing. "I just wish I didn't have to set it up all by myself." She sighed.

"Well, hey, we'll help you. That sounds fun." Bree suggested, looking back at Emilia and Leo. "Uh, no it does not." Leo said, before Emilia chimed in, nodding along. "Yeah, and who is 'we'?" She questioned.

"Okay, come on, guys, what else do you have going on today?" Bree questioned, in which Leo answered. "Anything. I have anything else going on."

Emilia sighed. "Fine, we'll do it." Caitlin smiled, walking past them as Leo added. "On one condition. I get to be the one who knocks over the first domino."

"You can't be the tipper!" Caitlin told him. "The tipper gets all the glory. I'm always the tipper!"

"Well, give my best to the coyotes." Leo pursed his lips, before going to walk away, until Caitlin gave in, allowing him to be the tipper. "It will be Team Leo." He announced.

"I will break you in half." Caitlin threatened, and Leo was quick to correct himself. "Team Caitlin, it is."

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

Emilia was getting annoyed with how Caitlin kept on standing above them as she smacked the ruler into her hand. She was that close to hitting the girl. Every time they would try and put one of the dominos in place, if it was wrong, they would be hearing an annoying sound coming from their ears, with Caitlin indicating they were doing it wrong. So, they decided to quit and create their own team.

After getting the room alone, Leo began starting with the design while the girls were on lookout, to make sure nobody came in. "Is it ready?" The auburn haired girl asked a few minutes later, in which Leo nodded. "Yeah. Here's the design. You two better hurry. Dinner break's almost over," He said, showing them the design.

The girls memorised the design, nodding at each other before they super speeded around to set up the design. "Whoa." Leo gasped, making the girls flip their hairs. "Five thousand dominos in three seconds." Bree bragged, before her and Emilia high-fived each other as they both called out in unison. "Domin Holla!"

"Domi-no-you-didn't." Leo muttered.

Caitlin then walked in with a gasp. "I'm a pretty princess and people love me. I'm a pretty princess and people love me."

"Hey, Caitlin." Bree greeted, smiling sweetly at the girl. "I was gone for a half hour. How did you set all these up?" Caitlin questioned, in which Leo answered. "It's amazing how much you can accomplish when you're not out of your mind."

"I'm gonna lose." She theorised.

"Oui, Madame." Leo interjected before the girl continued to cry, with Leo speaking French.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ.───

It was now competition time. And Emilia, Bree and Leo were stood ready for their turn. "Ladies and Gentlemen, it's tippin' time." Leo announced before kneeling down to get ready to start the domino line.

"Incoming!" Adam called out before a fire spitball zoomed in, leaving a mark on the wall, making the student beside it, drop the brush that was in his hand, causing the end of it to hit the start of the dominos, letting them fall one by one.

"No!" Leo cried, before his face switched to amazement as they watched the dominos fall onto each other. Everyone applauded as the line finished, along with Emilia and Bree who hugged in happiness.

After getting their medals, and of course they won first place, Caitlin then approached them saying. "Congratulations, guys. I was a jerk. You totally deserved to win."

"Hey, second place is nothing to sneeze at." Bree said, before Leo chimed in, holding up his first place medal. "Yeah, but it's not as good as first."

"No, Leo's right. I deserved to lose." Caitlin said with a frown before going to walk away.

Bree stepped forward to approach her. "Actually, Caitlin, we have a confession to make." She said, wanting to confess.

"No, we don't." Leo interrupted, stepping forward with widened eyes. Emilia nodded along before copying his actions. "Yeah, Leo has a point here. No we don't." She agreed.

Ignoring their protests, Bree sighed. "Emilia, Leo and I cheated." She admitted.

"I knew it! I knew it. Cheaters! They cheated!"

"Hey, hey! Pretty princess, Pretty princess." Leo shushed her. "Look, we're really sorry. Is there anything we can do to make it up to you?" Bree wondered, in which Caitlin smiled in response.

"Well... Nationals are next month. They're in Omaha, so my mom will have to drive us. Her car's a three seater, but I'll sure you can fit five if we all snuggle real tight." Caitlin informed them, before the three shared looks of fear.

As soon as Caitlin turned around, continuing to ramble on about it, the three teens ran out of there as soon as possible.
