I walk inside, praying that Nick won't explode. Even so, he's probably really ticked off. When he walks in front of me and crosses his arms, I know it's bad. 'I'm doomed,' I think. "So," he says. "Would you care to tell me where you've been?"
"I was with Anansi," I reply, trying to keep calm. Nick's voice shows
no emotion, but I'm certain that he's furious.
"Oh, that cheeky little jerk who waved at me when he barreled by?"
"Cut him some slack, he's deaf!" I start to raise my voice, furious that Nick would insult Anansi.
"I will not cut him slack! He practically kidnapped you, and then you spent all day with him without telling me at all where you were. He could have been a date rapist or something!"
I get even more ticked off. "He is not! He's a wonderful person, and I really, really like him!" I don't want to say love for fear that it will send Nick over the edge.
"I don't care! He's a horrible influence, and you will not be seeing him!"
I'm on the verge of tears. "Nick! You can't stop me from seeing him!"
"I can and I will. Go to bed. Now. You will stay there, and in the morning you will do your chore and come straight back to the house."
At this, I finally burst into tears. I run sobbing up to my room and fling myself onto the bed, my body shaking with sobs. How could Nick be so cruel?
*Nick*
Maybe I was a little too harsh on her. I'm only trying to protect her. That Anansi kid is a terrible influence on her. He just takes her away without asking? I swear, if he sets foot on this property, I'll...
OOC:
1. I know, she's gonna see Anansi anyway.
2. Yes, he might.
3. I know, Christine was trying to make Nick feel guilty
4. Ok, great!
