Fun before the party

"Can you remind me again, why I agreed to do this?" I ask nervously as my bestfriend leads me towards a large balloon that is filled with air. Yes, a hot hair balloon. My maverick bestfriend thought it would be fun for us to ride in a hot air balloon because, and I quote, 'it'll be fun.'

"Because," she makes emphasis on 'because', "you only live once, and there is no limit of crazy stuff you can do while you're still alive.. I mean, why not?" Spencer questions and almost launches herself in the basket. She climbs inside and motions for me to put my hands in hers. I oblige immediately and Spencer helps me into the basket. Our balloon pilot gives us a thumbs up sign after we're settled in and Spencer nods.

"Ready?" Spencer's eyes are bright, full of spark... or mischief.
