24 Oneshots 24 Hours

by The Dancing Nerd

Exactly what the title says. Starting at midnight I have 24 hours to write 24 oneshots. Sounds easy enough. Except I write one oneshot each hour until midnight the next day. Cue hilarity and slap happy writing. Complete.

10. 9 Umbrella

Me: I almost took a short nap.

Alex: I saved her!

Me: Yes. Give thanks to Alex.

Max: -snores-

Me: She's been asleep for about two hours, and things got remarkably quiet once she hit the sack.

The rain poured down outside. I couldn't help but groan as I saw the soaking wet kids run in from the parking lot.

"Need help miss?"

I glanced up to find myself looking at a teen model. Staring at him open mouthed, I tried to come up with words to say to him.

"Need help?" He repeated shaking his umbrella for emphasis on what he was asking.

I shook out of my daze and smiled at him. "Of course. Thank you so much."

He started walking with me. "No problem. What's you're name?"

"Ella," I stated simply.

The guy chuckled. "You can stand under my umbrella. Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh. Under my umbrella. Ella, ella, eh, eh, eh." He thought he was hilarious. Me? Not so much. Why was I always stuck with the morons. He was cute and, more or less, polite. He would be perfect if he never had to open his mouth.
