Just as Gavin said: “you won’t believe what I scored.” he immediately regretted it.
*Wouldn’t it be more fun to see what these pills could do to my mates without them knowing what’s going on?* He thought. *Plus, what’s the harm? It’s not permanent so basically like a prank*
Myles turned to him, “So what did you bring?”
“Um… what?” Gavin quickly replied, trying to play dumb.
“You just said you scored something.” Phil clarified for Myles.
“Ohhh, nah whoops,” Gavin laughed as he pretended to seem more drunk than he actually was, “I was meant to say heard. Not scored. Haha. Like I scored some info, ya know”
Gavin caught Phil rolling his eyes but they all seemed to buy it.
“Ok, so what did you hear man?” Myles asked again.
Gavin realized he had to quickly make up something worth talking about, so he claimed he overheard Alice, a girl in school chatting about how Chrissy, another girl from school, thought Samuel was quite cute.
After some friendly banter between the six boys about whether they actually thought this was reliable information, or if Sam even had a chance with Chrissy, etc, Gavin felt he was in the clear from his last mistake and now it was time to sneak some pills into drinks and see what happens.
