I sighed with relief when Doug bypassed me. He noticed me, I'm sure, but he didn't really acknowledge me. Great, maybe the jerk has finally gotten the message that I don't want to know anything about him.
I started to renew my conversation with Kevin and Phillip when there was a loud bang in the sky. Everyone looked up at the fireworks. Boy, Bob was really going for the record if he was paying for these.
In the middle of the fireworks I looked around and saw Doug. He was staring at me with a grin on his face. I looked away just as he pulled something from his pocket.
With everyone's eyes glued to the sky, noone noticed when Doug shrank me.
One moment I was normal, the next I was positively tiny.
In front of me sat Kevin and Phillip, still staring up at the sky. So was I, only now they were the sight that I was gawking at.
