"Cat! Stop, stop please?! C'mon Cat! I even said please!" Tori squeals as she finally manages to roll off the bed, out of her friend's reach. "Ow." She laughs as she hits the ground, but she quickly rolls under the bed.
There's silence, then there's movement on the surface of the bed. Suddenly, Cat's head peeks under from the side of the bed.
"Hey, come back." She softly laughs at Tori's face. "Oh, come on Tori."
"No." Tori says with a slight grin. "Why not?" Cat shifts the hanging blanket, so that she can get a better view of Tori. "Cause, you're gonna tickle me again." Cat laughs. "Who says that?"
Tori gives her a skeptical look. "Cause I know you Cat." "Then you should know that I won't tickle you." She smiles innocently.
"Forget it Cat. I'm staying right here; where I'm safe from assault." Tori says, her grin widening.
Cat's face disappears and there's shuffling as she gets off the bed. "Fine, then I'll just go. I'm sure I can find someone else to hang out with."
Tori silently moves under the bed, wiggling after Cat's footsteps. Tori peeks out as Cat opens the bedroom door. "Bye Tori. I'll see you around. I'll tell Robbie and Rex that you said 'hi'."
Cat walks out, shutting the door behind her. Tori crawls out from under Cat's bed, staying alert incase Cat rushes back in.
Tori sits on the bed, awaiting Cat's return. "Did she really leave? Nawh, she wouldn't leave me in her house alone while her family is away." Tori wonders out loud.
After five minutes of waiting, Cat still doesn't return. "Oh god, she did not leave me here, did she? Awh, I better go find her."
Tori rises from the bed and slowly eases the door open, being careful to prevent it from squeaking.
"Cat?" She softly calls out as she peeks out the bedroom door. No answer. After checking both ways, Tori sneaks out, turning off the lights.
She slowly creeps down the hall, towards the living room. "Cat?" She calls out again, still soft but a little louder than before.
Tori sneaks around the living room and her eyes land on the couch that sits in the middle of the room.
'Of course. She's probably hiding on the other side of the couch again.' "Oh Cat. I know you're there, waiting for me so that you can jump out and scare me. You got me the last time I spent the night I'm not falling for that one again, you know…." She trails off as she peers over the couch.
The little moonlight on the couch only reveals a discarded bag, not Cat. "Darnnit." She says, then freezes. She just heard footsteps somewhere behind her.
"C-cat? Come on, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you or anything. I really am sorry if I did. So you don't have to jump out at me, right? Or…. Make me lose my nerve and freak out, in which I'm about to do." Tori continues, a slight note of hysteria in her voice now.
She rushes over to the wall and flicks the light switch, but no light comes on.
"Cat, did you turn off the bower box, too?" Tori asks with her back against the wall.
She hears a laugh over to her right that's fairly close. 'That's not Cat.' Tori realises with a gasp. She tries to hide her fear as she rushes away from the sound.
"C-c-cat? Please answer me so that I know that's you…." Tori turns to look at the area where the sound came from, but the darkness covers up anyone who could be standing there.
Out of nowhere, two hands grab her sides, "Boo." Someone whispers tight before Tori begins to scream.
