"Hey Donnie."
"Hey Maddie. Did you have fun at April's?"He glanced at her for a second before turning his head back to his experiment. He turned his head back to her, noticing his she was hiding something behind her back."What do you have there?"
She giggled."A surprise."
Donnie gave her a questionable look. His eyes widen slightly as he backed away from his sister slowly with his moving chair."It's not another water balloon...is it?"
"What? No! It's even better than pranks!" She couldn't believe she said that...but it was true!
"Pizza?"
"I wish! It's totally something radical and you'll never guess what it is."She squealed in excitement.
Donnie thought about this for a moment. He shrugged after a few minutes, and chuckled. He decided to humor her while his curiosity was taking over his mind."Your right, I'm completely clueless! What's the surprise?"
'Must be some new videotapes she found, a gift from April, or maybe even...'
"An egg!"
Her brother looked at the egg she presented him with in horror. He was paralyzed in fear the longer he looked at it in her hands. His left eye started twitching and he suddenly felt lightheaded.'A...An e-egg? W-Why does she...'
"Donnie? You ok bro?"She asked in concern as she saw how pale her brother's face was getting.
He didn't feel so good. He felt sick, dizzy, and...and...
He fainted.
"Donnie!"Maddie yelled as she saw her brother fall from his chair. She carefully placed the egg on his desk and rushed over to him."Speak to me big brother! Come on, you can't do this to me! That's not fair!"
Darkness was all he saw. He heard a familiar voice in the distance. The voice was getting louder and louder, until he recognized it to be his sister's. He groaned as he opened his eyes, feeling a throbbing pain on the back of his head. He stared at Maddie's face as he tried to process what happened.
"Big brother?"
'Working on experiment...knocking on door...Maddie...egg.'His eyes widened.'Egg?!'He sat up quickly and panicked. Looking over his sister, he hugged her tightly and shook his head on her shoulder.
'No. No. No. No. This cannot be happening.'
"Uh, D-Donnie? C-Can't breathe dude!"
He stopped hugging her and placed his hands on her shoulders. He shook a little and tried to breathe regularly."S-Sorry. I...I just..."He stuttered and stopped himself to take a deep breathe.
"Calm down, Donnie, everything's alright. You hit your head pretty hard, though. You want me to kiss it better?"She smiled softly.
He shook his head and exhaled slowly."M-Maddie?"
"Yeah?"
He gulped loudly."P-Please, please tell me...t-that's not your-"
"Hey, Donnie! The TV remote isn't working again. Can you-"A sudden voice interrupted Donnie. The two looked back and saw Leo standing at the doorway. He noticed how distressed his brother looked and the confused look on his sister's face.
"What happened? What's wrong?"He asked seriously with a hint of worry in his voice.
"L-Leo...can I have a word w-with you...outside?"
"Donnie what-"
"Please?!"He yelled at him. Leo was startled a bit from his brother's strange behavior, nevertheless he nodded and waited outside. Donnie looked back at his sister and stood up, pointing behind her."G-Go sit on the examination table u-until further notice."He said just above a whisper.
"Why can't I sit on the chair?"
"Just...just do what I say o-ok?"
She nodded. Walking over to the examination table and sitting on it, she watched her brother shakily walk towards the door and shut it.'I've got a bad feeling about this. I guess the surprise was too much for him too handle. Speaking of surprise...'
