Home Sweet… II 41A

Trip was called. It was much worse than it was for Tanner. The frenzy that is. Watching him uncomfortably as he came up stage with his hands over his face. Showing the crowd his smile while pretending to be shy. Then his hands came down and he flexed his muscles. The boy host’s laughter boomed over everyone else’s. Peggy rolled her eyes and bent her head. Hearing the screams of the bidders and the hosts doing their thing until Abby’s voice came through, silencing half the school. Peggy looked up. “Uhh…” The girl host was speechless.

“What is happening today?” The boy host asked.

Peggy grinned as she said, “This is so crazy.”

“So crazy.” Jenny repeated.

“Okay. Okay.” The girl host said. “Seven twenty five. Anyone else?” More paddles went up. The price went higher and higher until it stopped and Abby had it.

“Peggy, you have to tell us everything!” Blake said, referring to what might happen with Abby and Tanner at home. Aida laughed at the order.
