The sun slipped quietly over the horizon and shined down on the Fenton household at exactly 5:57 AM give or take 34.9 seconds. The sun illuminated the light beige walls that Jack was so fond of. Maddie Fenton yawned as her eyelids fluttered open. As she sat up she quietly murmured, "Ah. It's a perfect 73° Fahrenheit today. I can smell it in the air", and with that statement she took a good whiff of the air around her and continuously sniffed it for a good 16 and 4/5 minutes. She stood up and did her favorite stretches including the pelvic thrust which she learned from the very informative show "Spongebob Squarepants". She was in the middle of stretching when something caught her eye. It was a tiny speck on the wall, a little crack that branched out like broccoli. She stared at the little crack for approximately 6.92 seconds. She loved that tiny speck like it was her child. "Shhh little one," she whispered to the tiny crack, "don't tell Danny I love you more". She stared at the crack for 8.17 seconds more and realized that around the edges of the crack the beige had faded to a dark ivory. Oh how Maddie loved ivory. She looked down at the ivory colored slippers on her feet. Almost mechanically she took off her slippers and compared them to the crack in the wall. She sighed a loving sigh. A perfect match. Nothing in the world could compare to the perfection of the match between her slippers and the crack in the wall. It was at this moment that Maddie realized it was destiny, fate, and the heavens that had brought the slippers, her, and the crack in the wall together. She would never take her slippers off ever again.
"OH MY GOD!" Jasmine shrieked as her mom walked into the living room. "MOTHER THOSE SHOES ARE HIDEOUS!" Maddie simply shrugged off her daughter's insults and lovingly petted her 7 year and 3 month old slippers. "You're just jealous of how these slippers are replacing the space you own in my heart," Maddie stated. It was true. The slippers filled Maddie's heart to the brim with ivory colored sparkles. Jazz quietly collected her cereal box and milk jug and looked for an escape route. Crap. The only way out was to go behind where her mother sat down. Jazz slowly stood up and tiptoed towards her mother who by now, had propped her slippers up on a shining pedestal on the table and was now staring blankly at them. Where the hell did that even come from...?, Jazz thought. As she inched her way towards her mother's chair, she cast nervous glances towards Maddie to make sure she was still focused on the slippers. Jazz took one more step when Maddie's hand shot out and knocked the milk out of her daughter's hands. The jug hit the ground and the plastic cracked open leaking milk all over the kitchen floor. Jazz gasped loudly trying to recover from the minor heart attack. Maddie turned around with her eyes wide and hissed, "The milk is a danger to my ivory slipperssssss". As she dragged out the s in the word slippers, she crawled onto the ground, rolled in the spilled milk and into a sleeping bag and scooted away in a fashion much like a caterpillar.
