below the petals

chapter one

Mink awoke from bed. She couldn't help but climb the petals again. She told her parents she was going next petal where her friend Lila lived. She was disappointed that she lied to her parents. She broke a rule from the fairy rules book. But she felt as if she had to. She got to the top and was shocked to see where she was. She was in a different location. A living room. She saw another person with the big fairy she saw last night. They looked very much the same except the other fairy she didn't see was much smaller, but she was still much bigger than her. They were talking about something weird. she couldn't quite make out the words yet. Then she realized what they were talking about it was the big fairy's crush. I let let out a tiny chuckle at this thought. Then the smaller big fairy glanced my way. I was sooo nervous but at that moment I realized I was in small form and I cooled down a bit. "What was that." The younger one said. "I don't know." The older one replied back. "Oops" I thought. "Whatever" they said at the same time and laughed at that. Which I didn't think was funny so I just kept on listening. "Well mom, there's a dance coming up and I really want to go with him." I laughed but in my head this time. "Um absolutely not your only 13." In my head I thought were the same age  but didn't dare say it out loud for I knew they would hear me. "But whyyyyy."  "Excuuuussse me but your only thirteen Emma your not allowed to do anything that in involves let's say dating until you are 18." "Well excuse meet ju-li-et but I want to." "Hey don't you speak to me like that I am your mother." " I'm sorry but.. but.." "that is e-nough  the answer is no so shut-up and go get something to eat your getting cranky I can tell." "Uuuuuuuuhhhhhhh I-HATE-MY-LIFE." "Thirteen." "Always cranky." "Always." I climbed Back down the petals. I couldn't take it anymore. It was all way too funny to stay. "I'm back" I said to my parents. "Oh hi" I heard my mom say. "Uh I'm just gonna go to my room ok." "Ok." When I got to the room I laughed my head off. "Are you ok" my mom said. "Yeah im fine just thinking of something funny Lila told me." But then I felt guilty. I had still lied to my mom and dad. So  I decided not to climb the petals the next day.
