Chapter 6: There's Something About Alanis, Breakfast, and Isaac's Pop-Tarts
Alanis yawned as she awoke. She looked over at the sleeping Zac. Then she groaned and fell back. They were victims of revenge. She sat back up. Alanis then began to poke Zac. "Wake up, up, up, up, UP!" Zac groaned and turned over on his side. Then his eyes snapped wide open. "Yep" Alanis said as Zac sat up. "Does that guy ever give up?" Zac shook his head. "Not after we gave his undies to adoring fans on Hanson Day, he won't stop for a while" Zac said. Alanis sighed as she wiped part of the goo from her face. "I'm going to go take a shower" she said and climbed out of the treehouse. Alanis flipped wet hair over her shoulders. "I feel better, do you?" she said. Zac nodded. Zac was now in a black T-shirt and his orange pants and was pulling his socks on. Alanis looked at Zac strangely. "You wear neon green socks?" Zac nodded with a grin. Alanis shook her head. Zac looked at her arms. "Where'd you get the bruises?" he asked. Alanis looked down. "Well mostly I'd say my father but I got these at school" "Your father? He hits you?" Alanis looked to the floor then nodded. "I'm sorry," Zac said. "It's ok," Alanis said then looked up. "Did your mirror always have the ' I'm gonna get you Zac' message on it?" Zac looked at the mirror. "Paint, Ike must've bribed Mackie for it" Alanis shook her head. "Um, Zac, I'm still in a towel here could I borrow some clothes and could you leave?" Zac nodded and went to the closet. He handed her a red shirt and dark jeans then he left. Alanis undressed then got the clothes on. Then she panicked for more bruises and cuts were visible. She was about to go to the closet and pick out some thing else when Zac poked his head in. "Are you dressed?" he asked then gasped as he saw the cuts and things. "Who did this?" he asked in a high squeal. "Daddy" Zac pulled her to him and hugged her tight. "You need a different shirt," Zac said. After Alanis got a better shirt the two trotted downstairs. Isaac frowned when he saw them smiling so did Taylor. "What do you want to eat baby?" Zac said to Alanis. "Eggs my Zaccy-poo" she replied. The oldest people in the room raised eyebrows at this but went on eating cereal. Then Taylor shot up from his seat. "ALRIGHT! WHO THE HELL PUT THE BUGS IN THE CEREAL?" he screamed as he kept his wide eyes on the bowl of Cornflakes. Zac, Isaac and Alanis grinned then burst out laughing. "Okay you guys the days of pulling pranks is off" Taylor said. Each of the people in the room gave sheepish grins. "Um, Ike, I wouldn't open my diary in the near future" "Tay don't wear those green pants with out looking at the back of them" "Zac I'd advise getting a new toothbrush" "Ike don't open the dryer soon, unless you like snakes" "Tay don't use your mouthwash near an open flame" "Alanis I wouldn't eat those eggs if I were you" And for the next twenty minutes they warned each other. Zac was trying to think of another stunt that he pulled when Isaac took a bite of a pop tart. He spit it out with disgust. "OOPS! Forgot one" Zac said.
