Senior pranks are a rite of passage. Sometimes they’re fun and sometimes
they’re killer.
They’re the last dumb thing you do in high school before you get to do
a whole bunch of dumb things in college.
But if you go to my school, they can stop your college dreams dead.
Sophomore year I couldn’t wait to participate in senior pranks, but in
the last two years the pranks have really escalated. The Wilder brothers—
putting their last name to good use—took over. Five of them, all a year
apart in age and all headed for prison if it weren’t for their parents’ money,
came up with a way to raise the stakes.
Everett
Emmett
Rhett—ugh
Garrett
Truett
Their parents really went with that matching-name theme. No wonder
they have issues.
I think I remember a kid ribbing Everett about it once. Only once.
There’s a rumor that the kid had to move to another country.
The brothers all like to exert their dominance. They assign you a prank.
A dare, really. If you’re brave enough—or stupid enough—to turn it down,
a forfeit is forced upon you.
Arrests, expulsions, not walking at graduation, and even college
rejections are what we face now. That is if we accept the dares…or if we
don’t. Saying no has consequences too.
I watch Rhett laugh and shove one of his followers as he makes his way
into the cafeteria, cutting in the line because he doesn’t have to wait like the
rest of us.
My best friend, Lucia, twirls her shiny black hair around her finger.
“Ignore him,” she says, pushing what I think is supposed to be a burrito
away from her. She’s curled up with her boyfriend, Jesse, so far evading the
eyes of any teachers monitoring for PDA.
Jesse throws a scowl in Rhett’s direction, still holding a grudge against
him for getting starting quarterback at the beginning of the year. Jesse and
Atlas are better. Rhett’s family is richer.
“The dares are going to start soon,” I say, turning my nose up. “Rhett’s
probably already plotting.”
With only three weeks left of school, senior pranks are right around the
corner. Don’t get me wrong, I’m going to go all out to prank Principal
Fuller, but I don’t want to get messed up in Rhett’s games.
Atlas leans in, kissing my cheek. “Nothing’s going to stop you and your
big brain from going to UCLA.”
Last year Billy Halsten had his place at Ohio State stripped because the
fire he set in a trash can spread and gutted a 7-Eleven. It was his dare from
the second-born Wilder brother. Not to destroy a building but to keep the
fire department busy while someone else stole a CPR mannequin.
Since then, the whole thing has made me want to skip the last few
weeks of school altogether. There’s no way Rhett is going to listen to
Fuller’s warnings.
