Black Death (MiniCat)

Chapter 4- Mischief

Craig's/Mini's POV

I slowly gained consciousness. What happened?! My head swayed as I raised up. I immediately regretted my decision when I felt a sharp pain run through my leg. I remember now! Damn... The necklace! I sat up a little more and searched through my pockets. I sighed in relief when I found it in my hoodie pocket. Wait... I don't remember putting it in my pocket? "So, who are they?" A voice said from across the room. I looked and noticed Tyler leaning against the wall. I didn't answer. "Is that your family?" He asked. "N-No! I honestly don't know who they are... I know the little girl, but I don't really know her dad and all I got to know about her mom is what she looks like." I answered. He thought for a moment with a relieved expression on his face. Why does he look relieved? I'm probably just over thinking it! "Then why did you risk your life for it?" Tyler questioned. I sighed. "I don't know... It was just an instinct I guess." I replied. He huffed. Why does he even care? There was an awkward silence between us. "Well, come downstairs with me! I'll help you down!" Tyler shouted with aw welcoming grin. I giggled and nodded. "Okay." I said as he walked over to me. He grabbed my left arm and lefties me up. Why is he being so nice to me? Yeah, they've all been nice to me even Brock but... There's something about Tyler! I don't know and I don't care. At least I don't think I care. We were almost to the stairs when I tripped. I almost fell, but Tyler caught me in a pretty wierd way. When he caught me he grabbed me and held me close to his chest. My face turned crimson red. Why am I blushing?! I might be gay, but I just met him yesterday! I wonder if he's gay? It doesn't matter! I looked up at him and noticed that he hadn't let go an he was blushing as well. It's almost like he's... Daydreaming? He returned to reality and realized that he still had a hold of me. "S-Sorry! I didn't mean to!" He shouted. He is obviously embarrassed. I chuckled. "No problem! It's okay!" I replied. He chuckled as well except it was more of a nerves chuckle than a playful one. We continued down the stairs as if nothing happened. We walking into the kitchen and noticed Brock and David chatting about who knows what. They turned to look at us when we entered the room. "You okay guys? You two look like you've seen a ghost." Brock stated as we came closer to them. Neither of us replied. We both just looked down. A could feel the tiny of pink that placed itself on my cheeks. Nogla and Brock both grew a devious grin on their faces. I wonder what they're thinking of? Whatever it is, it can't be good. "You two! Stay here! I need to talk with David about something." Brock ordered as he shoved Nogla out the door. "Uh oh..." Tyler mumbled. "What is it?" I asked. Tyler crossed his arms and rolled his eyes. "If you had known those two long enough, you would know that that spark in their eyes is never a good sign..." Tyler groaned. "Oh..." I simply replied. "So what do you think they're up to?" I questioned. "No good. That's for sure!" Tyler replied. I giggled. "Hey, this is random but what were you before all of this happened?" I questioned, hoping to learn a bit more about him. "I screamed into a microphone while playing video games and posted it to YouTube." He answered sarcastically. I giggled again. "You have a cute laugh..."  Tyler whispered, not meaning for me to hear. My face turned red again. Tyler noticed I heard him and changed the same shade of red. Later, Brock and David entered to room again. The mischievous grins still placed on their faces. "What was so important that you had to leave the room to talk about it?" I asked. "You can thank us later." Nogla said in his extremely noticeable Irish accent. Tyler rolled his eyes receiving a smirk from Brock and David. "So now what do we do?" I asked. Tyler rested his head on his hand in thought. "Let's go grab some extra supplies!" Tyler suggested. We all agreed and left the building.
