Evangeline

"Evangeline, you lazy oaf! Wake up!" I heard someone yell at the top of their lungs. I moaned and rolled over, "It is too early! Give me 3 more years to sleep!" The person let out a big sigh, "Not possible girl. You leave me no choice, it really did not have to come to this Evangeline." The room fell into blissful silence and I was slowly drifting off to dreamland. "Oh, my god! Fire! Oh my god!" I immediately leaped out of bed and fell in a heap onto the floor, facepalming the carpet and dragging all of my bedding along with me. I jumped to my feet and looked around frantically. "Where is the fire?" I asked as I sniffed the air for any traces of smoke, my nostrils flapping like Dumbo's ears.

I heard laughter from behind me so I turned around to see Charlotte rolling around on the floor, in a state of pure glee, turning as red as a ripe watermelon. I crossed my arms and gave her a deadpanned look, "You can't be serious, that was mean." She kept on laughing like there was no tomorrow, so I decided to try my best to ignore her and hop back into bed. All this excitement exhausted me even more. Charlotte realizing what I was doing immediately stopped laughing, "No Evangeline! You can't go back to sleep! I woke you up so that we girls can get our revenge and prank the guys!" I opened one eye to check the digital clock on my bedside table, "5:00 am...it is too early, I bid you, goodnight madam." I closed my eyes again and focus on entering the sweet world of dreams. Charlotte signed, "You are impossible." I grinned with my eyes still closed, "I know."

BWAAAAAAAHHHP!

I jolted out of bed, scared out my wits, and facepalmed the carpet for a second time that morning. "Damn it..." I mumbled. I slowly got up and glared at Charlotte, who was holding an air horn in her right hand and clutching her stomach with her left as she doubled over in laughter. "Are you serious," I asked her, yet again. "Ye..s!" she wheezed out. I rolled my eyes, suddenly not feeling tired anymore and knowing that if I keep attempting to go back to sleep, she would only find new ways to wake me up. "Fine, you win. I give up. Let's do this prank! Where are the other girls?" Charlotte finally caught her breath and was able to speak again, "They are already downstairs getting all of the things we need for the pranks" she answered. I raised my eyebrow, "What kind of pranks are we going to do?" Charlotte grinned mischievously, "You will see! Now, come on! Get ready and met us downstairs. Oh and wear something comfy!" I returned her mischievous grin, "Alright! I will see you soon." I did my usual morning routine and slipped on some grey sweats, a loose white T-shirt, and my adorable fluffy bunny slippers. I then opened the door quietly and tiptoed downstairs, trying to make as little sound as possible, although they seemed like pretty deep sleepers considering the fact that they didn't wake up after all the noises Charlotte made trying to wake me up.

The girls have gathered in the middle of the living room and tinkering away and setting up different pranks. "Good morning Evangeline!" Sydney and Jamie whispered-shouted. "Good morning! So, what is the plan?" I questioned. "Well, each one of us is going to prank our own mates, so you are in charge of pranking Blake," answered Charlotte. Jamie grinned, "This is going to be so fun! I am putting pink, baby blue, and purple hair dye in Jake's shampoo and condition. Charlotte is going to put on a clown dummy on Maxwell's bed, right next to him, and place creepy dolls all over his room. Sydney is going to fill up Tae's bedroom with balloons and hid mouse traps underneath them so that he can not escape. You can choose the prank you want to play on Blake, make it a good one Evangeline!" I smirked, "I know exactly what I am going to do to him, he will never see this coming. Mwahahaha!" We got to work on the preparations and then split up to sneakily carry out the pranks individually.

I decided that I am going to give Blake a little makeover and make him look like a fabulous Barbie doll gone terribly wrong. I gathered everything that I would need, which included: Sydney's spray tan, my bright red lipstick, Charlotte's extra false eyelashes, and my makeup pallet. I then sneaked into Blake's room, opening the door carefully and tiptoeing in. Blake was sprawled out on his bed, shirtless, snoring slightly and looking seemingly fast asleep. Perfect. I gently climbed on the bed and instantly froze when Blake shifted a little. Please don't wake up, please don't wake up I pleaded silently. I held my breath and waited for him to finally settled down. He shifted once more before becoming still once more. I took that as my cue to start my work. I first sprayed the spray tan all over his exposed chest, doing my best not to gawk at his fit figure, and covered his eyes to spray all over his face. Once I was done, I shook the can and realized that it was empty, I might have used too much. I desperately held in my laughers as I looked at his ridiculous state, he looked like a living Doritos. I then proceeded to apply a bright pink and glittery eyeshadow on his eyelids, carefully put on the fake eyelashes, and finally applied multiple coats of bright red overdrawn lipstick on his lips, just like Miranda Sings. Throughout the whole process, Blake, thankfully, did not even twitch and remained blissfully unaware of the havoc that I was causing on his handsome face.
