Roxie was cleaning one of the small glass cups in her bar, she was leaning behind the counter and had a cigarette in her mouth.
CREAK
the familiar sound of the door opening caught her attention and she turned towards the door. "Hola Nicholas, fancy seeing you here." The red haired boy had a tired frown on his face, the bags under his eyes clearly visible to Roxie.
Roxie gave a small frown and her voice sounded concerned "Thought you would be helping your dad with Halloween preparations...." Nicholas sighed and sat down on one of the bar stools.
He sat their for a moment before slamming his head into the bar. Roxie was surprised at this and raised a brow. "....Well ain't you a ray of sunshine today..." she said sarcastically, arms crossed.
She placed the glass on the side, sitting herself down in her chair. "Come on Nicholas, what's the matter?" Nicholas slowly lifted his head, only to flop it back down on the counter. Roxie placed a hand to her forehead
Tired and frustrated mumbles were heard and Roxie grabbed a tea cup. "So?....Black coffee then?"
Nicholas lifted his head from the counter and rested it in his arms. "Yes please...." Roxie hummed and poured some water into the kettle. Leaving it to book merrily in the background as she spoke to her friend.
"So, what is it this time? The stress? The time management?" Nicholas groaned and flopped his head back into the bar. He gave a muffled sigh before sitting back up in his chair.
"It's everything!!!" He yelled, waving his arms around Roxie. Roxie was unfazed and pulled her cigarette out of her mouth, she blew the smoke out to her side before putting it out in the ash tray. "Your gonna have to be more specific...."
"It's just all the responsibilities...." he said with a tired tone "This is the very first time my farther has let me organise EVERYTHING ALONE. And now that I'm actually doing it alone, I now realise how much work my farther has to throw himself into each year."
His next words sound more annoyed hen tired "Also, everyone is so....so...well..annoying!! All the monsters down their are always asking me if I'm done with the plans, or asking for a sneak preview of what I have in store. And the MAYOR!! Don't even get me started!!!"
He started to pace back and fourth across the room as Roxie started to pour the hot water into his cup. "He is always HOVERING around me, always YELLING something!! I mean, I can't even go to the bathroom without him yelling 'DON'T FORGET TO CHECK THE PUMPKINS' or 'MEETING IN 2 MINUTES'"
Roxie held back a snicker at the awful impression of the mayors voice. Nicholas sighed a sat back down in his chair, just as Roxie finished making his coffee. "Here, sounds like you may need more then a coffee...."
Nicholas took the coffee and chugged it down, Roxie raised a brow, he never drank his drinks like that. He placed his empty cup back on the desk and rubbed his temples
"......I hate being the eldest child....." Roxie shook her head. Before an idea came to her head making the skeleton smirk. "Well, no matter how old you get...."
"Roxie.No....don't you dare!!...." Roxie walked unfazed and continued "You'll always be....."
"Roxie, I am a prince I defy you!! I order you to stop!!!" Roxie didn't stop, a smug smile in her face "My....."
"Nooooo!!!" She poked his cheeks and said with the most smuggest smile Nicholas had seen "Baby brother!!!"
"UNCLE MANNY!!!!" Nicholas retreated from the room, Roxie gave a cackle and ran after him. "COME ON!! I THOUGHT IT WOULD MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER!!!"
Nicholas ran round a corner, hoping to loose Roxie. However, he came to a screeching hault when he very nearly ran straight into Manny. "S-Sorry!!"
Nicholas moved away, giving the two some space. "It's no problem, but why were you running?" Roxie poked her head round the door and answered for him
"Somebody just doesn't like the fact that I am trying to comfort my baby bro!!" Nicholas groaned and his eye twitched slightly "Roxie. No."
