Chapter 3 Bad Losers and Bad Winners

I looked at Smith as I heard Lewis sigh, 'errrm what?' I asked confused slightly. 'Oh Lewis I am sorry.' Pryion said I heard Lewis sigh again. 'Don't panic Abbey, now that we have our new house Hannah and I have decided to start trying. That's it.' He told me. 'Oh.' is all I could say, 'we wanted to tell you but it is a very recent thing and it just came up in conversation with these guys.' I listened to Lewis explain. 'Are you alright?' Lewis asked, 'Yeah I am fine, I am happy for you guys.' I said honestly, all I ever wanted when I was younger was a little brother or sister so I could the big sister thing. you know? They played three more games before Smith called it a night and we went to bed.

When we got to the office the next morning, well it was pretty much the afternoon but some of us got distracted and preoccupied this morning.... Take that however you want but I bet you can guess what I am getting at. Smith and I walked hand in hand down the corridor to the office but Hannah poked her head out of the common room. 'You guys busy?' She asked as we walked past, 'no you alright?' I asked her and she waved us both in.

She and Lewis were sat on the sofa and Smith pulled some chairs around and we sat in front of them. 'What's going down?' I asked all up beat. 'Did you even brush your hair before you came in?' She asked brushing it with her fingers, 'It looks like you have been dragged through a hedge backwards.' She said I looked at Smith and he was trying as hard as I was to keep a smirk off of our faces. 'It's a bit windy outside.' I said as she sat back down. 'Alright. Lewis told me what happened last night and I just wandered if you were alright or had any questions.' She said and I shook my head, 'I couldn't be happier, honestly. I could use another high point in my life, been flat lining for a while now.' I told them and they smiled at eachother. 'Although.' I said and they both looked horrified, 'I have to be the first one you tell.' I said and they laughed, 'of course.'

Smith and I went back to the office, 'where have you two been?' Trott asked, him and Ross had been waiting to record. 'Lewis and Hannah wanted to talk.' I told them sitting at my desk. We recorded some Worms and Squad until three and then edited since we were running a little behind. As per usual after two hours of editing we got a little bored, which it when the antics start. I think Trott started it, he threw a paper airplane at me and it hit the back of my head, I span around in my chair and he pretended like nothing had happened but I threw it back and skimmed his head. 'What are you doing?' Smith asked standing up looking over his partition, 'i am bored.' I told him and he looked at me, 'are you done?' he asked and I looked at my screen, 'pretty much.' I said closing down some windows, 'right we will do something just please can we sort all this out first before.' he said and I looked at him, 'no, no puppy dog eyes, it's not going to work.' he said and I smiled at him.

We finished up more work than I thought we would and there was word going around the office that there was going to be a pub outing at some point this week or the next which got some of us excited. Me I had never really been to a pub so I didn't know what the excitement was about. Anyways, what was I saying? Oh yeah after we finished like a butt ton of work and emails we called it a night and went home. Everyone was in a better mood, even Kim and we decided we were going to have chinese and play some games.

Now since we play video game most of the day and look at screens we like to play board games and the like. Tonight we were playing charades, if you don't know the rules then I believe if you open another tab you can access Google or your preferred search engine. We did it in couples to begin with and I will explain why we had to change in due course just be patient.

It was Smith's turn to act out the film/book/tv programme/ game/ whatever else we could think of to write on tiny bits of paper and throw into a colander. Yes we used a colander because living in a house with six people bowls are normally in the sink or being washed. Don't judge us. So Smith, as I was saying before my ADD kicked in, was acting out and I had to guess. 'Three, two, one.' Katie counted down and Smith instantly started rummaging through the bowl and picked out one piece and started which can only be decided was having some sort of fit . he was flapping one arm and the other was kind of held limp by his side. 'Errr?' I looked at him dumbfounded, he stopper and pretended he was holding binoculars, 'Searching? Looking? Finding?' I asked and he nodded as I said finding, 'FINDING NEMO!' I shouted and he nodded, 'Yes!' We hugged each other 'what the hell?' Trott exclaimed, 'how did you get it from that?' he asked clearly not pleased with the outcome. 'We are just too good.' I said high fiving Smith before we both sat back down, 'Smith and Abbey have 6 points, Kim and Ross have 3 and we have got 4.' Katie said, 'i think we need to switch teams.' Trott said crossing his arms. 'Excuse me?' Katie acted offended, 'no offence honey but if you can't guess Grease from 6he dance routine then..' he put his hands up. 'I was impressed.' or concerned, I can't quite figure out, 'that you knew the whole dance routine mate.' Ross said and trott rolled his eyes. This is how ga!e night normally went, Trott would get stroppy about something but Smith and I would be amazing. 'Fine, fine, fine we will switch teams.' Smith said, 'you and Abbey can't be together.' Trott reminded, 'ok Trott I will go with you, Katie and Kim and Ross and Smith.' I told him. 'Sounds like a plan.' Trott smiled.

Now if you thought Trott was a bad loser, he is an even worse winner. 'GET IN! LOSERS, LOSERS.' Trott said as we won the final point. 'Alright Trott calm down it's only a game.' Kim said looking through the stack of board games we had. 'Your right...A GAME YOU LOST!' He said and I just rolled my eyes before leaning on Smith. 'What we playing now?' Trott asked, 'monopoly?' Kim suggested, 'no, not monopoly Chris gets grumpy if he doesn't get all the train stations.' Katie said rubbing her face. 'What? No, it's a legit tactic actually.' he said, 'fine let's play.'

'Bankrupt?! Bull shit.' Trott moaned, by this point I was a millionaire, Ross and Kim had gone to bed, Katie was watching something on her tablet since she was bored and Smith had the opposite half of the board I did apart from the trains and a two light blues that Trott had mortgaged. 'Look you have no money left and your properties have already been mortgaged. Bankrupt.' Smith explained, we were all tired at this point, Smith was laying on the floor with his head on my knee and I was sat with my legs crossed leaning back on my arms. 'Fine, let's call it a draw.' Trott said packing away, 'A draw, you have nothing and abbey and I have millions and some hotels, it's a draw between us sure, but you, you lost mate.' Smith said collecting the money up. 'Fine, but I didn't lose.' he protested, 'Fine you didn't lose Chris can we go to bed now?' Katie asked and we all went to bed.
