Chapter 6

**

Here I am, pacing fro and to in my room with my wet hair. This time I don't bother to arrange my curly hair because am pissed. Why I'm pissed? Oh, my smart cousin pranked me and made me look like a freaking ghost and turned off the lights while I fall along with his freaky heavy stuff alone in the dark room. Isn't that enough for me to be pissed?! And oh, I had bruised my leg all in the name of his prank! And again I had to bath for the second time in a morning.

I flopped myself on my comfy bed making it bounce a few time. I can't let him get away like that. I have to payback. He have to suffer for the bruise. I jump up from the bed and begin to pace back and forth again. I have to do something in return, something.

After thinking through mindless plans my head finally struck up with something. Simple but horrifying plan. The image of Max covered in white make me smile to myself for no good reason. You made me look like a freaking ghost, now I guess it's my turn.

**

"Phew!" I signed, as I dust my both palm together proud of my simple plan. I look over at the long thin rope tied to the small bucket filled with white custard. I made sure the small bucket is kept in the up cupboard and the thin rope is tied to the handle of the bucket. I also make sure to open the door of that particular cupboard where the small bucket is kept so incase he draws the rope the door won't stop the bucket of custard from falling on him. And again, I will make sure he isn't far from underneath the cupboard so it fall directly on him. Simple!

Feeling satisfied with my little plan, my lips crept up smugly. Well I hope this work though. It's simple after all so he will definitely fall for it. Hope.

Now I'm standing in front of the island that seperate the kitchen from the dinning and the living room, to check if anyone was looking. But no one seem to be around this place. Great! Now I have to put this on show.

I rushed to the kitchen counter where a crate of egg is kept then I carried one egg from the crate and walk to the kitchen beginning and fell the egg on the floor on purpose, "Oops! I guess someone must have to be careful while running." I laughed, before arranging myself for the drama scene. Okay, now I'm ready.

In less than seconds, I'm screaming round the kitchen trying to draw Max's attention from his room upstairs. I know he can hear me whether or not he is upstairs. He have to hear me and rush down here.

"Max!!"  I screamed his named along as I scream out loud.

Just like I thought, Max rushed downstairs and head towards the kitchen. Just as he rushed into the kitchen and was about to ask what was going on, the burst egg of earlier slip him off his feet as he hits the ground, hard. His ass had hit the floor before his head, "Ouch!" He groan in pain. I try as much as possible not to laugh at him, otherwise I've ruin the other of my plan. He manage to get up from the floor like an old rag. That must have caused him a lot of pain.

"Oh my God! Max, do something!" I continue to act, not caring if he had fallen or not.

"Hell, what?!" He barked, annoyed, as he tried to catch why I'm yelling about.

"Rat! Rat! I saw a rat. It was right here on this crate, I-I almost touched it, I swear, and that was what make me accidentally drop the egg where you tripped." I point the floor where Max had tripped on.

"Shit! Is that why you're screaming like a three year old kid? Like the house is on fire. You scare the shit out of me like hell." He rant on, as he rub his butt while I try not to laugh.

"I saw it Max. It was right here hiding between eggs when suddenly I saw it and withdrawn my hand from the crate with a scream, and then it ran up there, to that cupboard." I panic.

"Will you please keep quiet! It's just a rat not like some harmful animal!" He said, disgusted. "Now which of the cupboard?"

"That one?" I point at the already opened cupboard on the wall. While doing this, I try not to laugh even a bit.

"This one?" He point at the same cupboard. Of course moron you saw me point it.

"Yes, just check it. The rat had climbed in there." I pretend to be scared, as he move towards the cupboard.

"Why is there a rope here?" He drags the rope and within a second the white substance inside the small bucket pour out and covered him before he even got the chance to move from underneath the cupboard. I burst into laughter clutching my stomach tight like they were going to burst. This is so hilarious!

Max was on the floor coughing out white custard while I watch as his head tilt towards me, slowly with a growl on his face. Uh oh.

My face morph into a sudden face as I try to subtle my laughter. "I think I'll go order some pizza." I say, taking my phone from the counter before walking out from the kitchen. Almost out from the kitchen I turn back to face him again. "And oh, I almost forgot," I point my phone and click a picture of him. I click again and this time he tries to cover his face but I didn't stop clicking.

"I said stop already!" He snarled, getting up and he try to charge toward me to take my phone from me but I don't allow him. My stomach hurts for too much laugh. The way his face's mask with the smooth powder makes him look much like an ugly clown. He really does deserve this. Maybe even more.

"Come back here!" He demands as he stands at the end of the stairs while I climb up.

"Nope!" I said popping the 'p' "I'm going to go to my room. And oh, I guess I've some pics to post too. So I'm sorry Max, I guess I'm too busy to come back there. Bye." I laugh hard, "You look real handsome this way, Max Everton." I throw him a kiss in mockery, which earn more flaming glares from him.

"You won't go scott free for this!" He grit his teeth.

Max

I can't believe she did this to me! She dare play with the prankster. She.. she pranked me. Hell, she pranked me!

"What you thinking about?" Ricky asked out of nowhere. "Dude, I've been talking to you but you seem lost in a desert full of snakes." He said, again. Desert full of snakes? That doesn't even make sense!

With an eye roll I ask, "Where's Jack?" I ask ignoring his previous question. I know Jack's still pissed with me for saying too much yesterday, he trusted me not to tell anyone but he's annoying like hell.. if he had just stay quiet I wouldn't have say a thing. But really though, it was fun watching his face go all blank. And now, I guess he's the one who dropped that stick of paper that says,"I'm Never Talking To You Ever Again!" over there in my drawer.

He shrugs, "I don't know. Maybe downstairs arguing with Addison over some crush issue which I don't care to know about– but only Addison says she's a zombie. Hell, how could he crush on a zombie?" He looked fathomed, but soon shrug it off.

Oh trust me, she look more than just a zombie with big scaring eyes and prissy glasses, long legs, broad shoulders and whatever way to describe a zombie. She's actually pretty though but she scares me, like she's freaking weird. I cringe at the thought of her.

"What—" I was cut off by Jack who rush into my room. Speaking of the devil.

"Max, this is all your fault! You told me you wouldn't say anything!"

"I thought your never speaking to me ever again?" I remind him.

"Whatever Max I still won't! Y-you, you. . ." He stuttered, "I trusted you!" He cried, feigning heart broken.

"Oh you did?" I asked, acting surprised and pretentious. We all know he doesn't trust me. No one does. I play with people trust. 

He look up taking in his words again, "Nah, you know I don't." He confirms while I nod in affirmation. Exactly.

"But still you shouldn't have!" he cried again, as he sits near me. And as for Ricky, he's just there playing with my stuffs. I still haven't ask him why he came in here in the first place.

"Yeah yeah.. I know that," I nodded my head, "But really why do you like her? I mean she's.." I try to find the right word.

"Weird." He completes.

"Yeah she's weird, so weird." I add, "Then why like her and not somebody else."

"Well I don't know. Maybe because she's cute." He said while my face screeched up in grimace.

"You mean cute?" I ask, in disbelief. Who dare call that girl cute! She's no way near cute or maybe she's is but her obnoxious character makes it hideous and unbelievable. Come to think of it, she has perfect blonde hair and nose, perfect set of teeth, long legs but.. she just doesn't seem so. She's still ugly.

"Yeah. And her smile is just so—"

"Okay okay I get it." I cut him shut as I stand from the bed. He too is weird. I don't want to hear his disgusting history of how he feels for a mystery monster. It's disgusting.

"Hey what's this thing? It looks cool." My head drift towards Ricky and God damn it, he was holding my magic helmet. It could put you to sleep or make you cry. I spent time working on this trash.

"Don't touch my stuffs!" I warn him, grabbing them from his hand.

"Why? I was just going to see them not like I was going to eat them."

"Then don't. They aren't for kids like you nor Jack nor anyone else." I was answered back with a kick on my crouch and that made me clutch my legs together in pain as I groan. "Ouch! Why did you do that?!"

"For calling me a kid." He snap, and then begin walking away. Damn it! He's just like Kira. Kira! Yes Kira! I had almost forgotten.

"Guys," I called out, gaining there attention, "You two come here." I gesture for the two kids to come and they obeyed. "I need your help." I tell them, "I want you guys to help me do something"

"Help you massage there?" Jack point at my groin area.

"Hell no!" He's an asshole to think I would let him massage me there.

"Help you clean your room?" Ricky suggest.

"No!" They're being too fast forward. "I would have love that though," I was referring to Ricky's suggestion. "But that's not it" They both look at each other before resting their eyes back on me. "I want you guys to help me run a plan." I watch as their eyes lite up in excitement.

Of course everyone loves to plan. My lips curls up as I think of one. Sweet!
