Description

A Easter Tale

It was early Sunday and Devon's bustling around the bedroom finally woke Skylar from her deep slumber. "Oh my god Devon, what are you doing? What time is it?"

"It's 8 o'clock. Time for you to get up." Devon was freshly showered and smelled of her favorite scented bath gels. She had been at work since 6am preparing, which was an achievement for the lazy, daydreaming Devon. She'd been happy lately and Skylar was the reason why. Devon's boyfriend had been gone on duty and then family vacation, so the 2 girls had been spending a lot of time together and it seemed to "ground" her. She had been feeling out of control lately, more so than usual, and having her best friend around seemed to really help. That's why she wanted the day to be special. Skylar was still half asleep and in the clothes she wore the night before. For her, it was just another morning. Nothing special.

"8am? Are you insane?" Skylar pulled the blanket over her head and groaned loudly. "It's Sunday!" Her dad was in Europe on business and her mom had long since been out of the picture, so she was spending the holiday / spring break with Devon and her family. Family holidays were almost an irritant to Skylar so she partially forgot it wasn't just any Sunday.

"Yes... Easter Sunday. Time for you to get up and get your Easter present."

"I can't believe you have those ears on." Skylar's voice was a bit muffled as she was still under the blanket, hiding from the light that was now shining in the room. "I haven't seen those since the 6th grade. I can't believe they still fit."

"They don't. They're crushing my head. Which is why YOU have to get up! "Devon snatched the blanket and pulled it off Skylar, who now had her face buried in the pillow. Devon stood there for a few seconds examining Skylar in the face down position on the bed as if she were someone examining a job they had to do. "C'mon. Time to get up. You can do it. Time for your present." Devon rolled Skylar over and pulled her up. Skylar was on the side of the bed with her head in her hands sitting for a few seconds when Devon pulled her to her feet and walked her to a chair in the middle of the bedroom. Skylar was a prisoner who Devon, the guard, was rousting out of bed.

"Oh... man.... Devon... You're crazy. Why do you do this to me? Can I at least get some coffee first?"

Devon's response was quick, "Coffee later. Sit." It wasn't often Devon was the leader in their relationship, but today was different. Skylar was a captured spy and she needed information. The stage was set and she was going to offer a bribe. Lives were at stake and....

Skylar's groan brought Devon out of her daydream and back to reality. "OK, OK. I'm sitting. Let's get this over with..."

"So anyway, I wanted to first say I'm sorry about last night. I don't know what came over me...." Skylar interrupted, "YOU came over you Devs..." Devon cut her off, "Shhh, I'm trying to apologize. So... anyway, I made you some special presents." Devon placed a basket on her best friend's lap and pulled a plastic egg from it which she was waving in Skylar's face.

Skylar who was now coming to, stared strangely at the egg. "What is it?"

"It's an egg."

"I can see that genius. Why are you and your funky hands waiving it in my face?"

The response was typical. Devon and Skylar had been friends forever it seemed. Skylar protected her on the first day of Kindergarten when Devon couldn't stop crying and they've been friends ever since. Still, they were very different. Skylar was mature for her age with a cynical sense of humor and a bit of an edge. Devon was softer, less mature, a daydreamer and a bit selfish. Regardless, they had been friends forever and would protect each other like wolves. Skylar was usually the leader, the one in charge, so this was different.... and a bit uncomfortable.

This time, Devon was determined.... "Ok, my hands are not funky. I showered, you're the one that's funky.

"Skylar began to get up, "OK, that's it...."

"Stop. OK. Sit. I'm sorry. You're not funky.... Well maybe your breath...." Skylar began to move again. "OK, OK. Sit. Geeze... They're special eggs. I made em. There's presents inside each one. My way of saying thanks for being my friend. My best friend. My only girl friend. My only...."

"OK, I get it Devs." Sky, as Devon called her, began to soften. "Wow, I can't believe you did this for me. Thank you." She reached up and grabbed the egg from Devon's still waiving hand.

"Go ahead. Open it. You can open the others on your own, but I want you to open this one", she said, while tapping the egg. Devon was now on her knees beside Skylar who was still seated in the chair with the Easter Basket on her lap.

"Wait, I smell.... You didn't?" Skylar cracked the plastic egg open to reveal chocolate cubes inside. Not just any chocolate, but a type that was Skylar's favorite. "Wow. Chocolate with Cinnamon and Coffee. You hate these."

"I know, but you love em, so I made em fresh last night, well early this morning. Have some. Try it"

Skylar took a bite. The cinnamon was a bit more overpowering than she liked and it could of used a bit more coffee. "It's perfect Devs... So.... was I supposed to get you something?"

"You did."

"What?"

"Friendship."

"Mall today?"

"Of course. Go shower."

She liked the new Devon that wasn't so lazy and selfish. Being told what to do, she wasn't so sure of....
