(LAMP) The orphanage of secrets (poly sanders)

Nine

I don't know what is going on. All I know is, I was rudely awaken by a joyful Bubbles whom forcefully dragged me out of my comfort zone, my bed, and proceeded to drag me out of our 'house' and towards who knows where. I feel violated. Before I could even mutter a 'Where are you currently proceeding to take me too?', we practically got shoved into a room. Patton gave me my glasses. I put them on and looked around cautiously. I realized that we are located inside Mx. Joan's office. Joan was not in here. It was only Anxiety, Bubbles, Princey and I.

"Come sit with us. We need to discuss a few things." Princey tells me. He and Anxiety are seated on the ground. Bubbles and I sat in front of them. When I do sit down, Princey looks at me in a weird undescribable way. He then smiles. "Why are you blushing?"

"P-pardon?" Did I forget to mention that I sleep shirtless? So here I am, in my pajama pants, shirtless, in front of the imbeciles that stole my slumber from me. I crossed my arms, trying to hide my chest. "Is this one of the so called things you needed to discuss?"

"Well," Roman started. "Nooo, but I-"

"End of discussion." Anxiety snickers and throws me a spare T-shirt of his. I gladly put it on. "Now, why was I woken up at-" I wanted to look at my watch, but realized that no sane person would purposely sleep with their watch on.

"Two am on a Saturday morning-" Anxiety begun, but I interrupted him.

"-At bloody two am on a Saturday!? I love sleep. Woe is me." Roman and Patton look at me like I've grown another head. "I am dramatically sassy if I'm rudely awaken okay!?" Anxiety just tries to hold his laughter whilst the other two still look like I'm a creature of the undead. What are those called again? Zombies..? I do not care for it at this moment.

"Do you know anything about...non-humans?" Anxiety asks me.

"Of course he does! He heard us talking about him and Invi's the other day!" Bubbles tells Anxiety.

"Yes Bubs, but that might be all he knows." Roman tells Bubbles.

"You do realize that I am still in the room that you purposely took me to?" I asked them. They looked at me and apologized. I look at Anxiety. "What do you mean my non-humans? The idea itself sounds ludicrous."

Princey gave me the 'you have got to be kidding me' look. "When you spied on us, we couldn't see you. You do remember that, don't you?" He asks me.

"Why yes. How could I forget." It felt as though I was dying at the time.     Wait... It felt like that..?      Shut up V! Wait a second, you were not there?

"Well, how do you explain all of that then?" Patton asked me.

How do I explain it?      Magic.      No. Just, just no.     Magic comes from one's soul. That's it's explanation.      "Magic does not exist." I, accidentally, said that out loud.

"It does, Leo. I have a book on the theories on where it comes from if you would like to read it." Anxiety says.

"Magic does not exist." I spat. "There must be a logical explanation for what happened to me that night."
