Searching for Serenity

Smelling smoke

After Ashley ran up the stairs, CC and I were left alone. We went ahead and fed the cats together then decided to sit on the couch.

"Ashley's probably not coming down anytime soon. I don't think I could get him out if I tried." CC stated.

"Yeah, I figured as much, he seemed pretty terrified. But that's okay, you guys can spend the night if you like."

"Oh, yeah sure. Just let me call the guys. It is pretty late isn't it?" He replied.

CC got up and headed to the kitchen out of my hearing range. After talking to what I could only presume was the rest of the band and his manager, he came back and sat down.

"So... want to watch a movie?" I asked.

"Yeah, why not?" He responded.

After browsing through my Amazon selection for a little while we decided on some Indie movie to play in the background while we talked.

After a while, I started to become really tired. The last thing I remember was CC getting up and laying me out on the couch with a blanket.

In the morning, I woke up to the sound of screaming and the smell of smoke.

"WHAT THE FUCK, WHAT THE FUCK, WHAT THE FUCK! THIS HOUSE IS PROBABLY WORTH A BAGILLION DOLLARS AND YOU'RE GOING TO BURN IT DOWN!" Ashley screamed.

"I DIDN'T MEAN TO! I WAS JUST TRYING TO MAKE PANCAKES!" CC yelled back.

"HOW DO YOU LIGHT PANCAKES ON FIRE CHRISTIAN!?"

Wait, fire? Oh shit! I got up and ran over to the cupboard, grabbing the bag of flour. I went over to the stove, doused it in the white powder, and covered the boys in the process. I wiped my face off, set the flour down, and passed out. So much for taking it easy...

*********

A short while later I woke up on the couch with an ice pack on my forehead and Nova on my lap. As I stroked her, I could hear Ashley and CC talking in the kitchen.

"Okay okay, I got it. Chill out dude." Ashley said.

"Just make sure you clean out the top of the microwave, I think some got stuck in there." CC stated.

"I mean seriously, why were you even cooking pancakes?"

"I wanted to surprise her! She had a rough night and pancakes solve everything!"

"Well nice going bro, I'm pretty sure almost burning someone's house down solves a lot of shit!"

As the two of them started to bicker, I decided to get up and check on them. I wrapped my blanket around myself and tucked Nova inside.

As I walked into the kitchen, I was surprised to see it completely spotless, aside from two flour covered men with their hands on their hips talking to each other.

I took a seat at the island and continued to watch them, they still hadn't noticed me yet. "Hey flower boys."

They both jumped and I giggled.

"Listen I am so sorry I almost burned your house down. It wouldn't have happened if someone wasn't hiding in the corner trying to get away from the cats instead of paying attention to the stove." CC stated.

Ashley slugged him in the arm and I laughed.

"Calm down, it's no biggie. Nothing was damaged so it's okay. How do eggs and bacon sound?"

Ashley's stomach rumbled. "I'll take that as a yes."

Ashley walked over, "Hey what's that in your blanket?"

"My cat."

He shrieked and ran into the living room. CC and I laughed while I got out the ingredients for breakfast.
