Easy V ( The Scarlets ) *ON HIATUS*

8-- Pranked

I tiptoed to where he lay, and tried to gently nudge him awake.  He looked too peaceful, but I didn’t want to deal with him in the morning. I wasn’t sure if I was ok with him being under my roof again, especially with how things ended the last time he was here, so to save myself from losing him completely, I wanted him out of my house.

I don’t know how that logic ever seemed to make sense, considering I would have to deal with him sooner or later, but later seemed a lot better in my head.  What can I say? I’m a bit of a procrastinator. Sue me.

Vince stirred for only a moment, before mumbling a few words and drifting back to sleep.  Dang… what is up with this dude? He never is this hard to wake up, only when he’s pissed drunk or been up a few nights.  I don’t know what he’s been up to lately, but if he’s this tired, it must be pretty good.

Stubborn as usual, I press on, trying to wake him up so he can leave and so that I can get some rest. Reaching for my iPod on the coffee table, I realize it’s almost 4 am. Damn.  Did he have fun again with Scarlet or another lookalike? This boy works like a rabbit. Well… you hopefully get what I mean.

“Vince… c’mon buddy wake up, it’s time to go home.” I whispered, still trying to gently nudge him awake. Unfortunately, that wasn’t working, but I figured a few more times wouldn’t hurt right?

“Vince… Megan Fox is at the door and she’s asking for you!” I half-whispered half yelled. To no avail he just seemed to smile a little more in his sleep and his eyes seemed to moving behind his eyelids.

Lord knows I don’t want to know what he’s thinking right about now.

I slumped to the ground beside him, looking through my iPod trying to find out what to do in this predicament.  I didn’t have the heart to push him off the couch to the floor or raise my voice because he could get hurt or suffer internal ear bleeding, (I can yell pretty loud… or maybe scream. Yeah, that’s what I meant) and I didn’t have the strength to pull him out of the house much less off the couch. What to do, what to do…

I looked around my home, and pondered what people usually did during slumber parties. There was the whole giving ‘mannie/peddies’ to one another, which I saw as remotely gross, to which gave me the idea of possibly pranking him. It was genius!  I then looked at his feet on the other side of the couch, and as pretty as this boy was, there was no way I was ever going to touch a man’s foot.  Maybe for a dare, but only if by doing such dare that I’d get a lot of money out of it.

‘C’mon Maria, think!’ I mentally slapped myself for being inexperienced in the ways of pranking, and it wasn’t fair.  I don’t think I’ll get this opportunity again, and here I am dumbfounded as to what I should actually do.  I got up and walked up to my room (yes, still no mattress and I could care less) and looked around, getting my nail polish from my dresser, because although I didn’t care for the boy’s feet, he’d definitely get some on his fingernails.  Should we go for pink or red? Or maybe even blue or green or purple or yellow or orange… Aw hell let’s just make a rainbow!  I laughed mischievously and grabbed my filer and figured, why not, before tip-toeing down the stairs with my tools, and dashed into the kitchen for a bit before coming back to Vince’s side.

He looked peaceful in his slumber, and that’s all I needed to start my mischief.  Opening my Red nail polish, the smell of it permeated the air, and all I could smell was my prank coming to fruition.  Oh how I could not wait for him to wake up and see… hopefully not anytime soon though, otherwise it would ruin everything.

Moving slowly but surely, I had gotten a nice rainbow of skittle like colors represented on each finger nail, and I must say even if I had to put it on by the light of my iPod, it came out pretty nice. I even went as far as putting a second coat on his nails just so it would stay on a little longer. I hope he doesn’t know anything about nail polish remover, but the moment he wakes up it’ll still be worth it.
