part 23: stop these silly jokes

today i was thinking of doing another prank on Scarlett for our youtube channel. we haven't really done anything the past few days and i really want to have some fun with this so i'm thinking of ignoring her. she absolutely hates it when i do this especially when she doesn't know the reason.

she's at work currently so i'm going to do the intro of my video then start cooking tea like 20 minutes before she comes back and then just see where it goes from there.

i mean i don't want to upset her to the point she cry's but i want to wind her up a bit.

i set up my camera and press the record button.
"hey guys" i smile. "so today i was thinking about pranking scar because i haven't done one in a while so i don't think she will catch on and it will be hilarious. But anyway by the time you're watching this it probably would have already happened so wish me look. she comes in around 2 hours." i pause the camera so i can go and find a place to put it later on.

i decide not to text her even though i'm dying to know when she will come home. i watch an episode of greys anatomy to pass sometime and have a shower.

—time skip—

now i have half an hour until Scarlett comes home.
i dry my hair and spray myself with my perfume. i know we aren't going anywhere but i like to smell nice. i get dressed into some joggers and a baggy top.
i set the phone in the corner with a mug in front it so you can't see it.

i put some pasta in a pan with some boiling water and pop the stove on. find some ingredients for the sauce and stark to chop tomatoes. i suddenly hear the door open and scarlett's foot steps through the hall.

"hi baby what you cooking" she says while coming over to the counter and placing her bag down. i shrug. "hey what's up." she says wrapping her arms around me and laying her head on my shoulder. "hazel?" she said with concern throughout her voice.
i find it hard to ignore her when she puts on that voice but i mange and continue to make pasta moving out of her hold.

"why are you ignoring me? what have i done?" i told you she gets mad. yet still i give no answer and carry on with my actions. she sighs loudly making sure i can here it and picks up her bag. she storms off upstairs and slams the door.

i hear the shower start running just as i've finished the pasta. i place my portion in a bowl and leave here in a pan. i wave at the camera and go to sit down in the living room. i continue my episode of greys anatomy i started and got comfy.

after around 30 minutes scarlet comes down in her pjs and goes straight to the kitchen to ignore me. she grabs a bowl starts to dish up some pasta. she comes into the living room and sits on the same couch as me but on the other end. after a few minutes of silence she decides to speak up "so are you doing to tell me why you are ignoring me" she says with an annoyed tone. i shrugged once again and ignored her. "oh my god what is wrong? i don't understand!" she raises her voice at me.

i try my hardest not to laugh at her. she was getting so frustrated with me but i had to carry on the prank. "whatever then you can sleep here." she said slamming her bowl onto the coffee table without even thinking about it she smashed the bowl. she seriously looked like she was about to cry but she shook it off. she walked off into the kitchen with her head down. i tried to get up to go to the bathroom but i suddenly noticed a sharp stabbing pain in my foot.

i hiss in pain and look down at my foot. blood was seeping out with glass sticking out the side. scarlett walked back into the living room with a small dust pan and brush. she looked down at my foot and gasped. "omg hazel are you okay? i'm so sorry." she said trying to grab me to take a closer look at my foot. i moved away and quickly yanked out the glass out of my foot. i yelp out in my pain and grab a tissue from the table. "haz-" she said but i quickly cut her off. "i'm fine." i grumbled in the lowest voice i could.

i mean i was genuinely fine and wanted her to believe that but i knew she wouldn't. she let out a fed up sigh as i got up and went to the kitchen. i grabbed a plaster and place it on my foot. i also put on a pair of socks and walked into the bathroom. i did. my business and opened the door and peaked my head out. i saw scarlett slowly picking up the pieces of glass and i really wanted to help her but i couldn't. i went down to my studio and locked the door. i grabbed my second camera and pressed record.

"hey guys. scarlett got a bit angry." i laughed "she didn't mean to but she broke a bowl and i stepped in the glass. she genuinely looked like she was about to cry and she looked like she felt so guilty." i sadly smiled. "but i'll go on and see how far i can get." i said with a thumbs up.

i walked back into the living room where scarlett was sat on her phone. "hazel can you please tell me what i've done to upset?" she said and i just stayed silent. "hazel you know i don't like it when you ignore me. i've had a terrible day at work and i wanted to come home to see you and i was so exited but you've just completely ignored me and made me feel awful." she said with a croaky voice. i felt so bad.

"hazel please." she said in a low voice. "are you going to say something?" she asked again. "i'm not taking this in a very good was i feel like you want to end things between us." she said with tears brimming her eyes. as much as it pained me i still ignored her. "right okay guess i got my answer." she said practically crying.

i saw a single tear roll down her face as she walked off. i decided i would go upstairs in 10 minutes to tell her it was all a prank.

i grabbed my camera and slowly walked upstairs. i peaked my head in the door to see scarlett curled up in a ball on my side of the bed sobbing. my heart dropped to my stomach. i had actually made her feel like that. i quickly placed the camera quietly on the desk and lent it up on a cup.

i walked over to her and said "baby?" she looked up at me with tears rolling down her face. "omg baby i'm so sorry it was a prank." i said trying to cuddle into her. "hazel are you FUCKING SERIOUS" she said absolutely furious. "i'm sorry i didn't think it would go this far."

"well it did so fucking get out." she said turning away from me. "no" i said simply. "get the fuck out hazel. why would you do something to me like that?" "i don't know i thought it would have been funny i guess?" i said with a guilty look on my face. "what about this to you is funny because i'm clearly not laughing." she said as she got up and stormed out.

"hey hey no. don't walk away." i said running after her. "leave me alone." she said walking into the kitchen. she lent down and rested her elbows on the counter and sunk her face into her hands. i knew she was crying. i wrapped my arms around her and tuned her around so her head was in my chest.

"shhh. i'm so sorry." i kissed her head. i felt absolutely awful and all i wanted to do was hold her in my arms. "i'm sorry. how can i make it up to you?" i said. she lifted her chin up and said. "just stop pulling them stupid pranks." she said with a low and weak voice. "i'll stop i promise." i said pecking her lips. "i'm so sorry for hurting you." she said in a low voice. "it's okay baby. it didn't hurt that much." i said pecking her lips once more.

"do you see that mug over there?" i questioned and pointed to the corner. "mhm" she answered. "well there's a camera behind there." i said. "i hate you." she said. "oh no you don't." i said smiling at her which made her smile.

"you do realise i'm posting it on youtube right." "no your not." "erm yes i am." "don't you dare" she said looking up at me. "i have to give the people what they want." i said laughing. "so they want to see me crying." "well when you put it that way no."
