Chapter Two
Chapter 2
Herme's POV
Cassie was taking a suspiciously long time at the "grocery store".
"Okay guys we all know that she didn't go to the grocery store right, and if she did go then she went somewhere else too.
We were in a group huddle discussing: where was Cassie dun dun dunnnn
"She did?" Tracy asked
"Wow!" Angela said
I put my hand on my face and whisper "why why why?"
This is what happens when you barely go to school. At least I went.
I just didn't graduate.......Elementary school.
"Yes guys I mean how long does it take to--"just then Cassie walks into the door with a handful of groceries and asks "How long does it take to do what?"
We all scream and break up the huddle
"Umm hide!" I say quickly
"Are you guys playing Hide-and-go-seek?"
"Um yes." I say
"Whose hiding?"
"Oh right umm Tracy...is....hiding."
"Then why is she standing right next to you?"
"Huuuuuuhh she is?" I say dramatically
Cassie nods
"No she's not." I say as I push Tracy so she stumbles and falls a few feet away from me. "Oh there you are Tracy, I've been looking everywhere for you!" I emphasize
"Oui" Tracy says as she falls down
"Uh huh anyway-" Cassie says dropping the subject, "I've got groceries that we need to put away."
We complain until Cassie gives us : THE LOOK: then we all put our heads down, and sluggishly walk to the kitchen to put away groceries.
We start to unpack stuff when Liz screams
"What?" Cassie asks as she runs toward Liz
"It's an alien!" Liz exclaims as she drops it and back away from it.
"What?" I say like Raquelle from Barbie life in the Dreamhouse, Tracy and Angela love it and there was nothing else to do so.......
I see what Liz is pointing to and gasp. "NO!"
"It a monster!" Angela screams
"What where?" Cassie says a little too over protectively. "Oh that's not an alien or a monster it just brusselsprotes."
"Yes it is an alien!" Tracy screams
"Guys I want your New Years resolution this year to be to eat healthier."
"Why?" Angela whines "We already eat healthy enough!"
Cassie gave her: THE LOOK: and said "yeah pizza, Ice cream, mozzarella sticks and wings are all extremely healthy for you." She said sarcastically
Finally like 4 weeks later we were done and we got to do....
"Chores everybody!" Cassie says
All our jaws drop
"But-but we just did chores!" I spatter
Cassie just shrugs and tells us what we have to do.
"I got... Sweeping?!"
"Hey Liz "I whisper "What did you get?"
"Laundry."
"I got sweeping wanna switch." I nudge her
"Naa." She says
Shooties must try again
"Hey Tracy want to switch chores."
"Okay." She says
SCORE!!!
"Okay I got sweeping what did you get?"
"Dishes."
Whaaattt??!!??!
"Trade's a trade." Tracy says
Ugh curse her hanging out with Angela and having Angela's personality rub off on her a bit
I still have one chance, even though I know Angela won't switch with me since she hates doing chores, but she hates doing the dishes the most. It's worth a shot though
"Hey Angela-" She cut me off by saying "YES" very very VERY evilly
"Okayyyy." I say, why did she agree to that, oh well I don't care I don't have to do the dishes.
Whoop whoop
"I got the bedroom." Angela says
Yes that's the easiest job, I LOVE doing the bedroom, but I barely ever get picked to do it.
I head up the creaky and squeaky stairs and go to the left when I reach the top to find the bedroom.
I fluff the pillows and take all the pillow cases, blankets, sheets, and stuffed animals down stairs.
I have a lot in my hands so I cannot see what it in front of me, I have to focus on not dropping anything. Before I go on the first step I drop a pillow case and go to pick it up, in the process I drop a couple of Tracy's stuffed animals. I manage to pick it all up and not fall down the stairs.
As I walk down the stairs one foot after the next and placing each foot on the stair so I don't fall, I hear Angela doing the dishes right by me.
I feel the load get lighter and see that I dropped yet another thing.
It's a teddy bear
A black teddy bear
With stuffing coming out of it
And it lost an eye
And it's one eye is red
And it has badly made vampire fangs with blood on the fangs that was obviously added on to it
It's Angela's creepy bear that she calls Octavion for some reason.
I guess that I have to pick it up so I bend down and try to pick it up. I have a grasp on it and then I lose it, the bear falls down to the next stair.
I move one of my feet from the stair I am on and place it on the one below me. The position is not sturdy, and I almost fall, but I catch myself. I extend my left arm toward the bear and hear Angela laughing her laugh is so evil, all of a sudden I get a full blast of water sprayed at me and I lose my footing, I trip and fall down the stairs, thankfully I had blankets so I didn't get hurt. It was very loud though.
Cassie rushes in and exclaims "Who died!" She sounded worried but had a bit of annoyed sound in it
"What the what?" Liz says as she follows behind Cassie, followed by Tracy.
"I'm fine." I grumble "I tripped"
"You were carrying a lot of things, maybe you shouldn't clean the bedroom again." Cassie says worried
I stand up before Cassie could blink and assured her that I was fine and it was just an "accident" I was about to explain that it was Angela's fault when Cassie said "Angela"
Good she's going get it now
"You did soooooo well I'm so proud of you! great job!" Cassie tells Angela
I stand there with my jaw open and Angela smirked at me.
"Well let's continue, we have to finish the chores before dinner!" Cassie says "Chop chop!"
I finish cleaning the bedroom and then we all settle down for dinner, which happens to be turkey (that I refuse to eat), and BRUSSELSPROTES!
Whyyyyyyyyy??!?!?!?!?!????!!????!???
