"Hayden." Amelia called pulling his hands. He looked at her.

"Er... Wait Amy." he said.

"Come on Hayden. I'm hungrrrrry." She said emphasizing the 'hungry'.

"Go and meet Camilla." He said.

"But she's asleep."

"Wake her up." He said.

"I tried that already but she didn't budge. Come on Hayden. Pleeeease."

"Alright...alright. Ashton, we'll talk later. Just call when you get the name." He said over the phone before dropping it. "Now, what do you want?" He asked stooping to her level.

"I'm literally starving." She said.

"Awwwwn. You should have just ordered through the intercom. Come let's go." He said.

"No!" Amelia shouted and he looked at her weirdly. "I don't trust those hotel people." She lied.

"Why not hun?" He asked.

Hun? Who knew he liked children so much? That grumpy fool.

"I feel the person that killed my mum is after me too and you know...they could conspire against me." she said.

"What?! They wouldn't do that." he said.

"Hayden pleeeease. Just this once." She pleaded.

"Er... Okay then. I'll be back in a jiffy." He said.

"Coconut rice!" Amelia shouted behind him and he nodded and left. "He's gone." She said when she entered the room.

"I saw. You're such a good actress." I said and high-fived her. She chuckled. "Now, for part two." I said and smirked.

We went to the parlor to set up our plan. For a little effect, we turned on the fan behind the curtains to make them blow about. He wouldn't see them in a dark room anyway. The fog machine was also switched on. I searched for some creepy sounds on my laptop and played them. And then, I turned off the lights.

I was dressed like a witch. My hair was creepy and bad. I wore a white over all and fixed really long nails. I did a little make up to make me look scarier.

Today's gonna be the best!

"He's coming!" Amelia said and hid behind the door. Then, Amelia started screaming and shouting. "Leave me! Leave me!" she shouted.

I heard a loud noise from outside like something fell down and Hayden rushed into the room hurriedly.

"Amy! Amy!" He called looking around. He saw her by a chair, suckling. "What happened dear?" He asked and hugged her. "And why on earth is the light off?" He asked.

"Gho...gho...gho... Ghost." Amy stammered faintly but he heard. Hayden started laughing.

"Are you serious? Ghost? Come on Amy, we both know they don't exist and even if they do, we can't actually see them." He said.

"But I saw it Hayden. I did." She said pretending to cry. That was a signal for me to turn on the creepy sounds as we planned. I did and I also turned on the fans since I was standing next to the extension.

"Okay! What was that?" Hayden asked, getting up and looking around.

"The ghost." Amelia said.

"There's no such thing as ghost." He said. "I need to turn on the lights." He said walking towards the light and Amelia grabbed his feet.

"Ah! I felt something pull me Hayden." She said.

"It might have just been Camilla. Where's she anyway?" He asked.

He's not scared right? No problem.

"Hayyyyyyden." I called creepily.

His head snapped around immediately.

"Did you hear that?" Amelia asked.

"I know it's just you Camilla. Quit playing around and stop scaring the poor girl." He said.

"But I'm right here." I said sitting on the couch. He couldn't see me so he couldn't see my make up anyway.

"Oh good." He sighed. "Wait! If you're you and you're on the couch, then who's..."

"Hayyyyden." I called again.

He swallowed hard. "That." he completed his earlier statement.

I tried hard to control my laughter. When I was in check, I switched on a green bulb under my cloth revealing witchy me.

"Hey there Hayden." I called out and he looked at the 'witch' in shock. "You seem surprised to see me. Don't I exist?" I asked and laughed evilly. "I'm...Talia, the great, great, great grandmother of Amelia and I'm here to take her away." I said and moved closer.

"No! Don't take me away! Please!" Amelia begged. I moved closer and Hayden's face turned to that of shock and fright.

"I'll kill you." I said and threw my hands up.

He staggered backwards and fell over a chair before getting up again in total fear. Looks like the great Hayden got scared of a ghost.

"Stay... Stay away!" He shouted and threw a pillow at me. I dodged it and smirked.

"Coooome to meeeeee." I said moving closer and dodging everything he threw at me.

His look got funnier and I couldn't control myself any longer. I busted out laughing and Amelia joined in, then we flipped the lights on.

"Camilla?" He asked in shock with a confused look on his face.

"Yeah! It's me!" I said still laughing.

"But... you...you were on the couch." He said.

"Was I?" I asked.

"What was that for?!" He asked.

"A little payback for messing with me." I said proudly.

"Amelia? You too?" He asked.

Amelia chuckled. "You should have seen your face. All scared and like..." She looked funny as she tried to imitate Hayden's look.

"Was not." Hayden argued.

"Was too." Amelia's said.

"Was not."

"Was too." I said.

"Well even if I was, too bad you didn't have a picture or anything." He said and smirked.

"I wouldn't say that. I have a whole video." I said and pointed at my laptop.

He gasped and ran to delete it but I quickly grabbed it.

"Hey! Delete that!" He shouted.

"You'd have to catch me!" I shouted and started running about. He chased me too and Amelia did a good job getting him out of the way. I ran to my room when I had the chance and locked the door behind me. He kept banging on it, asking me to open up or delete it. I transferred it to my flash drive just in case he managed to get his hands on my laptop and hid it before opening the door.

"You're so evil." he said and I chuckled.

"Wow thanks love." I said and kissed his cheek before going over to Amelia.

"Where's the food anyway?" Amelia asked him.

"I dropped it on the way when I heard your fake scream." He said frowning.

"Awww...I'm really hungry." Amelia said holding her stomach.

"Go get your own food, A-me-lia." He broke her name dramatically and left for his room.

We laughed again. "Good job Amelia." I said.

"You too." She said and her stomach grumbled again. I smiled and went to the intercom to order two plates of yummy coconut rice.

Such a glorious day!

So there it is. They played a prank on Mr grumpy and he fell for it.😂😂
I just hope I tried in that aspect.
