A/N: I once got sent out of a classroom for laughing which is how this came about, I know it is short but I hope you enjoy. I do not own the worst witch or the characters.


Can't Stop Laughing

There was tired faces all around the room as the Great Wizard droned on and on with his speech. Only the teachers seemed to be paying attention. Even Esmerelda and Ethel Hallow who were normally serious about everything were struggling to stay awake just like the rest of their classmates.

Esmerelda was sat next to her little sister and started to twist her body to try and get more comfortable but because the girl was tired she wasn't paying a lot of attention and ended up hitting her knee on the table before instinctively bending down to grab her now bruised knee and swearing under her breathe but loud enough for Ethel to hear.

Esmerelda swearing was a very rare occurrence which was normally only triggered when she was absolutely fuming which was not often or when she hurt herself, Esmerelda being clumsy was also unusual and Ethel hearing what her sister said and seeing her rubbing her knee started to laugh quietly.

"Ethie be quiet" Esmerelda told her sister as they were in a very serious situation after all, only hearing them words made the younger blonde laugh more and hearing her sister laugh so much was what set the older girl off until both sisters were laughing really loudly finding they literally could not stop as tears ran out their eyes.

"Esmerelda and Ethel Hallow" Hecate Hardbroom sneered in her most deadly voice, Esmerelda glanced up and saw the wizard bright red in the face and laughed even more.

The two sisters carried on laughing unable to help themselves as the pupils around them gave them a strange look...none of them had found the speech funny just boring.

"I do not know what is so funny but this is an outrage, leave at once both of you" Ada told her students angrily, the girls got up heading for the door still laughing their heads off as they left.

"Oh gosh" Ethel said holding her stomach as she walked down the corridor with her sister "I couldn't stop" the girl said tears still falling out her eyes.

"I haven't laughed so much in months" Esmerelda replied still trying to stop laughing as she wiped her eyes.

"We are for it" Ethel told her sister worried because she had gotten her into trouble.

"It was worth it" Esmerelda told her sister as she put her arm around her chuckling. Both girls knew they were going to be punished but they had enjoyed having fun for a change and just messing around with each other.
