Okay, before the chapter and comments start... THEY SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER THAN TO LEAVE ME HOME ALONE WITH IT! NOT my fault.
So the power decides to go out on us 30 minutes ago. The guys light candles up all around the house to see. This is the discussion I overheard:
Dan sighed " Great, now what do we do?" James shrugged and lit a purple candle. Russ grinned " Lets go to the movies! If they're not down..." The guys all agreed and Dan made the excuse of changing clothes to tell me, give me his cell, and leave.
How boring would I be, if I only played Geometry Dash? I decided to save the battery, and go get a snack or two. Since they were gone, I NATURALLY took the scenic route, and looked at the empty house.
That's when a delightful smell reached me, and drew me towards it. I found it to be a scented stick candle. Normally, I'd be more cautious (lie) and stay away. But, like the genius I am, I decided I wanted to touch the hot wax!
I gracefully danced over and kneeled by the pool of green liquid, which smelled like violets. I didn't even bother thinking how hot it could be, as I dipped my hands in. Big. Mistake.
I yelped with pain and jumped up, knocking the candle over and falling into the green liquid. I jumped up and ran over, trying to put out the flames, failing miserably, and resorted to pulling flammable stuff away, trying to let it burn out.
After about a minute, it finally went out, much to my relief, and I was able to put the stuff back and set the candle up. I spent the whole time they were gone scraping off wax from my body and clothes, and ashes from the flames.
Okay, after THAT ^^ everything else is COMPLETELY my fault.
By the time they got back, I barely managed to hide behind a picture frame as Russell and the others walked in. Immediately, they spotted the area and rushed over, to where a print of my body basically lay in wax.
They looked at the damage to the tile, when Russell, damn his observation, noticed my print. " Guys..." he pointed at the wax. " What is that?!" He said, glaring at them both, seeing their knowing yet shocked expressions.
They avoided looking at him and shrugged. Russ crossed his arms and took a position showing his silent rage. " I want to know, why it looks like a doll faceplanted into a pool of wax- and why it looks like someone burned the tile!"
I could tell they didn't want him to know, but I knew if they didn't then Russ would probably find out in his own way, possibly when no one could save me. I sighed and prayed for us all, before stepping out and saying " I'm why."
Russ tensed and turned, Dan and James looking at me, both angry and frightened. Russ' jaw dropped and he said in a tone what you imagine a goose would sound like: " What the Гμ€£?!"
I squealed as he grabbed my torso and moved me to his face for him to look at. " Hey! Be careful with her!" Dan said grabbing at Russ. Russ turned to them, steaming " This is what you two have been hiding?! WHAT THE HECK?!" I winced, and struggled in his grip.
" This is why we hid her!" James said, making a grab for me. Russ pulled away and snapped at him " If you TOLD me, I wouldn't be so P¡$$ed!" " You're crushing my ribs!" I called out with as much strength as I could muster, and to my relief, his grip disappeared as he held his palm flat out.
Everything but my gasps of breath disappeared, as we all stared at each other. Russ mumbled something along the lines of "Sorry for crushing you in my rage, it was directed at the jerks over there."
Dan protectively took me into his care, and smothered me like my mom used to. James and Russ discussed everything as I told Dan that they almost burned the house down, not the curious neko who knocked the candle over, and convinced him I didn't need surgery for anything.
Regardless of what happened we went our seperate ways and spent the night in our rooms, which I now live in Dan's bottom drawer. So yeah, not my fault, I'm a victim of being left home alone. Now I guess I have a mom (Dan), a dad (James), and an angry boy (Russ) watching over me, unless Russ decides to be Mr Evil in here. Or I cause James to break... AGAIN, NOT MY FAULT!
