Just A Little Silliness

I laughed as she collapsed to the ground.She sat on the grass and eventually laid down.
Me: Hey, what are you doing on my lawn? I thought we needed to get to the store.
Her:Your house looks cool from this angle.
I shook my head. Me: Right…
Her: No really, come look.
She patted the ground beside her. I sighed, wondering if she was truly crazy.
Her:Come on.
I gave in and sat next to her and, feeling like an idiot, laid down, tilting my head upwards to look at the house. Nope. Not seeing anything particularly interesting.
She propped herself up on one elbow.
Her: Tilt your head to the right and concentrate on those two clouds, the roof and that row of windows.
I stared for a while when I finally saw it.
Me: Hey, it’s a smiley-face.
She burst out laughing.
Me (blushing): What? It was your idea.
She giggled. Her: You should have seen the look on your face.
I rolled my eyes and shoved her playfully. Me: Oh shut up.
She just laughed and shoved me back, hopped up, and ran to the car.
Her: Shall we?
