"Hello," the woman said before us. We must have had a mischievous glint in our eyes because she looked quite frightened.
"Come in come in, " Justin said opening the door wider. The sitter walked in looking around the house. She rests her things ( which consisted of a purse, a plastic bag, and a water bottle) in the living room and walked back towards us.
She actually looked really young. She seemed to be in her mid-20s. Had brown hair and blue eyes.
"My name is Madeleine." She said with which seemed to be a German accent.
"She must be German," Justin whispered over to me. I gave him a 'no dip' look and turned back towards the sitter.
"You can get yourself situated, um Jason should be home by 7:00 pm," I said with the sweetest smile I could muster.
We were just about to leave when she stopped us.
"Uum where is your bathroom?" She asked. "Straight ahead". "Thank-you"
Justin and I went ahead to my room and closed the door. I looked at Justin and I could tell he knew what I was thinking.
"Come on Lisa, don't feel bad, its just a little harmless fun," Justin said giving me a look. "Ok, I have to call Jason though to let him know that she is here," I said.
I grabbed my phone and called Jason......
"Morning Sweetie"
"Morning Jason Dylan said to call you when the sitter arrives"
"Ok great, did you tell her what time I would be home?"
"Yh she knows"
"Alright make sure you guys behave and don't cause any trouble"
"Of course we won't cause any trouble Jason who do you think we are?"
"Whatever I gotta go Luv, you guys"
"Ok bye"
End call.
I looked over at Justin who was throwing a paper ball around.
"Let us get started," I said. "Ok now that we know who the sitter is it would be easier to prank her," Justin said.
"Yh, but first I kind of want to know what is in that plastic bag," I said twirling my hair around my fingers.
"Maybe it's her meds or something," Justin said catching the ball and throwing it again. " Really Justin who carries meds in a plastic bag unless you are doing something bad," I said putting emphasis on the word bad.
"Fine, we will look in her little 'drug bag' and then get to pranking her," Justin said quoting drug bag, then standing up, and coming over to help me up.
"Oh so here is the plan," I said. " She placed her bag on the couch in the living room, so one of us should distract her and the other one should grab the bag," I said giving Justin a pointed look.
"Hey, why are you looking at me?" Justin said putting his hands up. "Well, dumbnut you are the only other person here and I am the one who came up with the plan," I said slapping him upside the head.
"Hey don't be so rude," he said rubbing his head.
"Ok, lead the way," I said
Justin and I both went down the stairs quietly. "Ok I see her, she is in the kitchen, go and do something that will distract her and I will get the bag and run up the stairs with it" I whispered.
"Okay," Justin said. I waited a couple of minutes before I heard Justin yell. "Help, Help I have fallen and I can't get up" I heard him say.
I stifled a laugh. He is so dumb. I would be genuinely surprised if that ever works. I quickly walked past the kitchen where the sitter was helping Justin off the floor.
"No, it hurts too much to move" I heard him say.
I continued until I made it to the living room, and then is when I saw it. The plastic bag. OMG, this is actually a really funny situation.
I grabbed it, and let me tell you, it made sooooo much noise. I cringed at the sound it made. I hope Justin was loud enough to cover the noise
I picked it up slowly this time and stuffed it into my shirt, then made a mad dash for my bedroom. A couple seconds later Justin came in.
I burst out laughing remembering the excuse Justin used to distract the sitter. "What WAS that," I said trying to contain my laughter.
"Oh shut, I had to save your butt, because of that loud noise you made," He said. "Oh, she heard that," I said making an O face.
"The whole continent probably heard it," He said. "But I told her our TV has been making random noises like that for ages, and luckily she bought it." He said sitting on my bed.
"Ok good," I said opening the plastic bag. "What's inside?" Justin asking playing with the same damn paper ball.
"I am not exactly sure," I said. There were little bottles in there, filled with a powdery substance, there was at least 6 of them, and each of them was a different color.
"Let me see," Justin said jumping off of the bed and looking in the plastic bag. "Woah, Lisa you might actually be right about our sitter being a druggie," Justin said inspecting the bag.
"But that doesn't make any sense, Justin why would she just leave it out in the open," I said. Something isn't adding up here. Who is our sitter?
"And besides we don't even know if this is drugs, it could be cleaning or cooking supplies for all we know," I said trying to keep positive, and not dwell on the fact that Jason might have hired a druggie as our sitter.
"In a plastic bag?" Justin said giving me a look.
"Fine, we should probably put this back before she notices," I said tying the bag back.
"Ok do you need me to distract her again?" he asked. "God no" I laughed out. No one needs to hear that again.
Justin and I snuck out of my room for the second time today and crept down the stairs. Wow, we may actually be getting good at this.
Justin stepped on something and fell down the stairs. Nevermind I spoke too soon. "Justin could you be any louder," I said as he landed on the last step.
"Yh I am fine, No I am not hurt, thanks for asking" he sarcastically said as he got up from the floor.
I rolled my eyes. "Come on get up," I said as I quickly walked past him concealing the bag behind me as he got up.
"Ok here is the plan, I will make a mad dash for the living room, place the plastic bag, then run back," I said gripping the bag tighter.
"Then what am I here for?" he asked raising his hands in the air. "You are here to keep watch," I said patting his chest.
"Now watch," I said as I started my way for the living room. 1....2.....3.......GO. I raced for the living room, placed the bag down, and guess what happened. Guess what just had to happen.
I frickin slipped. I stayed on the ground and looked around to see if the sitter heard or saw me. Where is the sitter anyway? That is actually a great question.
Anyway, no time for a questionnaire. I got up and continued to the stairs where Justin was. "Did you put it back?" Justin asked looking at my hands.
"No I ate the powder then threw the bag away," I said with a serious expression on my face. Justin just gave me a confused expression.
"Yes, I put it back where we got it from,"
"What are you guys doing?" we heard someone say. Justin and I both slowly turned around to see the sitter standing with her hands on her waist.
