I woke up back at my house in the middle of the night. Luckily my bed was empty tonight, well, almost empty. I turned to my side and saw Wally. He was sitting up looking at me with a giant smile. "Good morning, Well it's more so night, but good morning, Y/n." He ginned. "How did we get back?" I asked, matching his pose. "You...we walked back.." Wally's smile faltered, his voice turned into a more hushed one.

"It would've took like 4 hours, so we didn't walk." I crossed my arms. "Well we took the moving thing...the blue one. Do you not believe me?" Wally leaned in closer to me. " I--..." I paused, suddenly feeling a positive feeling take over. "Of course I trust you." I nodded. "It just doesnt add up, but if you say we took the bus then we took the bus." I put a hand on his knee.

"Wanna make a blanket fort?" He changed the subject, but I didn't mind. "Well everyone else is asleep..." I said, remembering all of the annoying people in my house. "We'll just have to be quiet then. We're good at that anyways." Wally winked at me. I thought about it for a short moment, contemplating whether it was worth dealing with my family or not, but looking at how excited Wally was I couldn't say no. "Okay, let's do it.' I smiled and nodded.

Me and Wally snuck through the hallways of my house until I got to a specific guest bedroom. It was a bit difficult because there was deadly toys covering the ground, but we made it through. Eventually we got to the room. In the closet there were like 10 blankets and sheets, but it was even worse in here. Legos were covering the floor to the point it was impossible to tell the was a floor. Also a few of my younger siblings were sprawled out on the floor. I'm 80% sure they were laying on them too.

"Do you think we'll be able to make it?" I turned to my side. "Of course, we just need to be ninja's." He nodded and held his arms out. I was confused at first, but then he jumped and did flips and spins across the ground until he got to the closet. "Uh...." My jaw dropped to the ground. "...okay uhm..flip back and bring the blankets with you." I whisper-yelled. Wally tried to reach for the blankets but he was too short, and now that I think about it he wouldn't have been able to flip back over to me.

"What are we gonna do?" He asked from across the room. "We could give up," I suggested, but his face turned into a frown, all traces of happiness faded away. "A-actually it's fine, I'll find a way." I tried to reassure him.

I looked around the room for anyway to pass without stepping on Legos or children. Maybe I could attempt a back wheel or something. I am barefoot though, because if I miss, it's game over me and everyone in this house. "You can do this Y/n, I know you can." Wally quietly cheered me on. I took his words into heart and jumped. I was suprised when I opened my eyes again I was on the other side of the room with Wally.

From where I was currently standing I could see my previous spot would've been impossible for me to reach. If I actually did it I probably would'nt have been able to roll my back or however I should explain it, but somehow I made it. "Oh Y/n, you're so cool..!" Wally latched onto me, giving me a giant hug. "But how did I--"

"Don't worry about that, although that was really great!" Wally jumped. I jumped along with him, but then a few seconds later I could see my sister Aniyah stirring in her sleep so we stopped.

Eventually Wally and I made it back to my room where we set up chairs, stools, and whatever we could to give the fort extral figure.

I crawled through the tunnle we made leading to the main part where he was at right now. I had gotten Wally one of my old Apple Dumplin' sleeping bags, and I was using the Strawberry Shortcake one. "Are you ready to go to sleep? It's 1 in the morning.." I sighed, climbing into my sleepingbag. "Well I guess we can." Wally sighed. I turned beside me and turned off the small lamo beside me. Now Wally and I were in the dark, right next to each other.

I took the giant Strawberry Shortcake quilt and threw it on top of the both of us. "Good night, Wally." I whispered. I heard Wally shifting in his sleeping bag and then he turned to face me. "Y/n?" Wally said. I turned to look at him alswell. "Yes, Wally?" I hummed. "Are you....mad at me...?" I couldn't see him but I knew he was frowning. "What? Of course not..! Why would you ask that?" I said, obviously confused. "I--...nothing...good night..." He said and turned back around.

I was really confused and wanted to continue the conversation but something was stopping me from doing so.
