Teamwork, Monday, Period 3

Class met on the school grounds today, where Jack had sectioned off four plots of grass shaped like small landing strips and scattered with frisbee-size silver hoops.

"So today," she said, "We're going to work on trust by playing minesweeper. Way it works is, you guys pair off. Then one on each team, the minewalker, goes into a field while the other, the guardian, stands outside the rope and shouts instructions on how to get across without stepping on those silver frisbee things. Those are mines. Once the first person is across, they leave the area and take the place of the guardian.

She smirked. "Simple, right? Except there are two catches. First, the minewalker is blindfolded. Second, the mindwalker can't talk. So before anybody goes onto the field, you should take a minute and figure out your strategy for communicating. Winner is the first team to get both people across without setting off the mines."

"Now spin in a circle and hop on one foot."

Beat.

"It's for science."

"Ha ha."

Like Cade knew anything about science.

She took another step forward, narrowly avoiding one of the 'mines,' then called, "That it? Are we done?"

Because celebrations would be good. You know. Maybe.

"You remain un blownup," Cade confirmed. "Yay me."

"Yeah, you're a real superhero," she agreed dryly. Removing and blindfold, she toed the ground with her shoe for a minute before adding, "So... after class, if you want to, uh, get your ego fed more..."

That came out weird. Gert made a face. That was what she got for never paying attention to pick-up lines.

"I have work, but I've been late before," Cade said with a grin.

Like...most of the time he was late.

"I know a place."
