And That's Why

Episode 01

"Walter, stop torturing us and put the fucking game in the slot!”

“Chill out, Griffin.” The black haired boy, Walter Wazowski, replied, sliding the cd into the slot, easing into his jet black torn apart office chair.

Soon an emblem of intricate designs appears, rotating rapidly, a loading bar at the bottom of the screen increasing.

“What’s the new scent of the room called? A dose of geeky puberty entitlement?”

Griffin's anxious grin dipped into an agitated frown, “hello to you too, Lily.”

Lily Alastair. Thirteen and a half (apparently she think’s there’s a difference between thirteen and thirteen and a half). Redhead. Annoying. Sarcastic. And it just so happens, Walter’s babysitter. Yes, his dad actually thought it would be a good idea to let a thirteen and a half  year old girl with hair the color of a fire hydrant to supervise his son who was only a half younger than her, every Sunday (actual reason why Lily’s his babysitter: dad’s a fucking cheapo).

Her eyes squinted at the computer screen. “Are you playing another PC game? What’s the rating of this game- your dad told me you can’t play anything that’s not ‘everything’ rated.”

The brunette, Hero that was sitting on the armrest of Walter’s chair rose up searching for the game case in the messy room of Walter Wasowski “Build It beta. Made by EG, Electronic Gaming. Rating: Mature 17+- shi-oot.”

Griffin released a groan, resting his head on Walter’s shoulder, who was cussing rapid French under his breath at the absentmindedness of the girl.

Lily snickered. “Well, looks like no Build It beta for you, children.”

“Lily, if i’ve said this once, i’ve said it a million of times” Walter sighed twisting the chair to face the smirking redhead, “we’re practically the same age- I don’t think there’s a legitimate reason as of why you're calling us children.”

And before she can even reply back, he continued “and no the fact that you're thirteen and a half doesn’t really make a difference.”

In response she emitted a frustrated growl, slamming the door behind her as she left. 

“We all know that even though we've been told to not play it. we’re still fucking going to play the game, right?” Griffin finally said, breaking the awkward silence.

The two nodded, Hero went back to her spot on the chairs armrest and Walter brought the game back up seeing the game has finally loaded up.

 In bold it read: activate game now?

 “Fuck yeah, we are!” Griffin's smile reached ear to ear, anxiously gripping Walter’s shoulders.

 Walter drags the mouse to the option and suddenly, the monitor screen exit’s the game and he’s at his desktop screen of Thomas the train working his signature rape face. 

 “What the fuck just happened?” 

 Griffin narrowed his hazel eyes at the screen, leaning in forward as if somehow by glaring at the monitor the game will come right up.

 Hero spoke with worry drawn in her face, “this happened to me too when I downloaded the game.”

 “Probably a glitch.” Walter shrugged, rising from the chair.

 “Oh, look i’ve created a butt print of my ass.” Walter pointed at the mold in the chair.

 Griffin snorted at the sight tugging at the hem of his white air dry nike shirt with the corner of the logo at the upper area.
