I made my way out of Theo's, I walked back to our mansion and knocked on the door "Look who decides to show up after 5 hours!" Angelica sarcastically said giving me the eyes of a devil "Sorry... I got carried away! But I brought you and Betsey some smores!" I said trying to stop her lecture that she was going to probally give "I would be really mad, but since you brought smores I'll make it an exception" Angelica said, I handed her a smore and she went to watch Netflix with Lizzy, I wasn't in the mood to go to work today but I have to make it up to John so I put on the ugliest sweater any human could find and put it on, after a few groans I mangaged to tie my hair into a high ponytail, "Makeup or no makeup?" I asked myself while staring at the mirror "Eh, what the heck!" Was the last word I said before putting light mascara, concealer and a lipgloss Eliza gave to me when I was 14, two years and it's still here, I walled downstairs and saw my sisters holding a platter of bagels "IT'S NATIONAL BAGEL DAY!" they both screamed at me "Wasn't that yesterday?" I asked them but I didn't hesitate to grab a bagel "Nope, yesterday was donut day, remember?" "Ohhh, ok" I said then left without a trace, since my bike was broken, I didn't have my driver's lincense and I wasn't able to walk any longer, I had to ride the limo, I hated going out with a limo cause it makes me feel like I was more important than other people but it was the only available choice so I called my dad's chauffeur, Loius, he picked me up and I told him my location, I looked out the window to see people sticking their middle finger out at me for being in that limo but this one girl caught my eye, she had a red dress and messy curly hair, she was bruised and crying, seeing her made me feel alot more humble than I was before, lesson learned, never be in a limo to go downtown, "Thank you monsier Louis!" I shouted at him, once I was back on my feet I remebered that I was partying all night and my legs were SO numb "Pegs! You look terrible" a deep voice said, I turned to look who it was and who did I see? Of course my best friend-I mean friend YOU KNOW WHAT I don't know what to call him anymore "Gee thanks for the compliment!" I sarcastically said "Ha! how was the party?" he questioned as he dragged me into the store "Great! I got you a smore!" I told Laurens as I grabbed a smore out of a brown paper bag "Thanks! Anyways, I know you're not in the mood to talk to customers so just go pre-heat the ovens for me please!" John said as he pushed me into the kitchen "Um sure" I awkwardly said, here's the thing, I don't know how to pre-heat an oven... WELL time for some internet, I typed on how to pre-heat and got some results "Ok just do this... and turn this thing... and close!" I said to myself "Laurens! I'm done!" I screamed as I walked out of the kitchen "Great! Now can you go grab the bread dough please? It's labled in the fridge" John shouted to me as he was dealing with a fat customer "Sure" I said back as I sloth walked to the fridge, I grabbed the bread dough and as I walked back I realised that there was smoke, "Oh shit!" I said as I dropped the dough "LAURENS! THE OVEN IT'S BURNING!" I screamed out bloody hell "What!?!" Laurens screamed back at me, now the smoke was starting to spread everywhere "HELP!", I couldn't find the exit or Laurens, I started to feel dizzy and light-headed "Hel-" I tried to scream out but fell down the floor instead, I opened my eyes a bit and saw John carrying me out the smoke "Laurens?" I asked him "Save your breath!" he frantically said, when I woke up again I was in a hospital room, my sisters clutching my hand and John checking my tempurature "SHE'S ALIVE!" Eliza said as she pulled me into a hug "I was so worried!" Angelica said as she pecked my forehead "Pegs! Don't worry I told my parents I was the one who burned down the kitchen" John said "wait WHAT?".
