Home Alone... But... (Home Alone Fanfic)

I - Purposeful

(This is my favorite Christmas song, btw.)

3rd Person's POV:

As the McCallister family gathered around to enjoy their purchased pizza, Kevin suddenly lunged towards Buzz and knocked him onto the counter, causing Buzz to gag out the rest of the cheese pizza he had just shoved in his mouth. Panic broke out, and it ended with Kevin having to sleep on the third floor. Buzz seemed somewhat happy that he had just gotten Kevin in trouble for his wrong doings. As Kate started asking a hundred questions to see if Buzz was alright, he glanced down into the trash can and swiftly pushed his own ticket, not seeing Kevin's below the napkins. He reassured his family and the night went on.

At around midnight, Buzz woke up, snuck downstairs, and into their basement. He sat on the couch and sighed. He'd much prefer to stay home alone then have to deal with Kevin the whole time. He laid himself down, reaching for a blanket, which left his hand patting around to no avail. He sat himself up, walked back upstairs, and into the attic where Kevin was sleeping. He quietly grabbed a blanket before glancing at Kevin. He smirked at a thought that would definitely annoy Kevin, but then quickly decided against it, turned away, and headed back downstairs.

---Morning 9:43---

The McCallisters hurried and grabbed all their stuff for the trip, rushing around the house like a bunch of chickens. Buzz, meanwhile, was in the basement, hiding behind a bunch of old cleaning supplies they never used. He smirked when he heard them rush outside and count heads, before getting in and hurrying off. He finally got out of this hiding place and went upstairs, happily making himself a bowl of cereal and turning on the tv. He put the milk and cereal away before sitting down at the counter, finally content and happy...

"...Buzz...?"

Buzz froze and slowly turned to look at his youngest brother, Kevin, who was standing in the doorway, still in his pajamas with messy hair and squinted eyes. Buzz stared at him in shock as Kevin rubbed his eyes tiredly

'...Wha... Kevin?'

"Yeah...? Why are you up so early...? And where is everyone else...?"

Buzz realized at that exact moment that the rest of the family had forgotten him. He thought that they both were up early when in reality, they were up too late.

'Kevin... They already left...'

Kevin perked up suddenly becoming fully awake as he stared his brother down.

"What?! Then why are you here!?"

Buzz sighed.

'You trout sniffer... I slept in the basement because I wanted to be home alone. Seems like you didn't have a choice.'

Kevin walked over and sat down next to Buzz. He placed the side of his head in one hand.

"...When will they come back?"

'You think I know?'

"Not really."

Silence erupted for a few minutes as Buzz ate his cereal and they both watched TV. Kevin reached over and grabbed an apple and Buzz looked at him.

"...Can we maybe-"

'Hell no. Leave me alone.'

"Okay..."

Kevin got up and walked off with his apple as Buzz turned his attention back to the TV.

---An Hour Later---

K(ate): ...I'm a terrible mother...

Peter, Aunt Leslie, and Uncle Frank were comforting Kate on the plane because she finally realized that two of her children were gone. She was having a mini panic attack.
