A Scary Movie

Chapter 2: The Movie

Previously

"Sorry Henry but your mother is right. It's too scary and you are too young..."Arnold said in a serious voice.

Henry looked upset at this and pouted more.

"What's the big deal?..."Megan said.

"Yeah, I've already seen that movie over at Kiara's house and you can clearly tell that the brains are oatmeal..."Andy said but their parents opinion remained unchanged.

"Please, Mommy?..."Henry asked again, giving his mother puppy dog eyes.

However, Helga did not fall for it.

"Henry, if that didn't work with your brother or sister at that age, it's not gonna work for you. I said no..."Helga said, being firm.

Henry heard this and pouted more. His older siblings felt a little sorry for him.

"Sorry, little bro..."Andy said as he knew from experience that his mom isn't gonna change her mind.

"Yeah, sorry..."Megan said before she left to go get ready for the movie.

Andy also left, leaving the little boy alone to sulk.

"No fair..."He muttered as he barely touched the rest of his lunch.


Present Time

The rest of the day had passed by and dinner time had just ended. Helga had made spaghetti and meatballs, which her family enjoyed.

Soon, it was time to relax.

Arnold, however, was expecting an important business call from the anthropology department he works at, and asked not to be disturbed while he was in his study.

His family promised and went to do their own thing.

Helga quickly took a still pouting Henry and gave him a bath before putting him to bed, since he was the youngest and went to bed earlier.

Afterwards, Andy and Megan went to go watch their movie in the TV room, however their mother made the following rule.

"Your little brother is asleep right now and your father is expecting a very important call. So, you guys can watch your movie but keep the noise down and try to keep the screaming to a minimum if you can help it..."Helga said to her kids.

"No worries, Mom. I've already seen the movie. I'll be fine..."Andy said.

"And I am ready to see it..."Megan said in a composed way.

On the inside, she was excited.

She's always loved scary movies since she was very little and had been dying to see the latest Evil twin movie since she saw the trailer for it on TV.

She could hardly wait!

"Alright then, Have fun, you two. If you need me, I'm gonna go take a bath and get ready for the evening..."Helga said.

The blonde mother soon left, leaving her children alone to watch their movie.


A few moments later

Once Helga was gone, the kids went to the TV and Andy set the movie up.

"Oh man, this is gonna be so awesome!..."Megan said, almost drooling over the chance to see the film.

"I'll say. You're really gonna freak out when you see this flick, sis. Especially when-..."Andy was cut off when his sister glared at him.

"No spoilers! Don't ruin it for me!..."Megan said as she even covered her ears for good measure.

Andy chuckled.

"Calm down, I was messing with ya. But this is gonna be awesome..."He said, grinning.

"Yeah, it is gonna be awesome..."Henry, dressed in his footsie pajamas and holding his blankie in his hand, said as he suddenly crawled from behind the sofa, shocking his older siblings.

"Henry!..."Both Andy and Megan exclaimed.

"Where'd you come from?..."Andy asked, surprised to see him here.

"Mommy and Daddy said I came from the hosp-si-tal..."Henry said, pronouncing it as best as he could due to his young age.

"That's not what we meant. What are you doing here?..."Andy asked.

"I wanna see the movie too. So, when after Mommy put me to bed, I snuck out of my room and waited until she was busy...and now here I am..."Henry said cheerfully.

"Mom said that you can't see the movie..."Megan reminded.

"But I wanna...come on...I'm a big boy now and I can watch scary movies too..."Henry whined, wanting to see it.

"No way, Mom would flip and I'm not getting in trouble if you get nightmares and wet the bed again like last time..."Megan reminded.

"That onion in the movie was really, REALLY creepy looking and the way he talked and moved around was freaky..."Henry insisted, referring to the last scary movie he saw.

"I'll admit the onion was creepy looking but he wasn't even one of the bad guys, just a joke character. Anyway, that's besides the point. Mom and Dad said that you can't watch the movie and I'm not getting in trouble because of you..."Megan said, still not wanting him here. "Not get!..."She said, being bossy.

Henry looked sad and his green eyes began to water and his mouth trembled a bit, looking upset. Andy saw this and he hated seeing his little brother like this. He found himself giving in and turned to his only sister.

"Megs, come on. Let him watch it. It clearly means a lot to him..."Andy said, seeing how much this meant for his little brother.

"Are you nuts? Mom would kill us and she said he's too little to see this movie..."Megan said, being a goody-two-shoes.

Her older brother rolled her eyes and decided to use his secret weapon.

"If memory serves me...you were around Henry's age when you started watching scary movies, Evil Twin in particular and you've been hooked on them ever since..."Andy reminded.

Megan flinched and pouted.

"So what? I don't get scared so easily..."She insisted.

"Come on, Megan. Henry's being just as pushy and wanting to see the flick as you were at his age. I still remember all the times you whined to me to help you see those films behind Mom and Dad's backs, despite the fact that they thought you were too young too...so you don't really have a right to say Henry can't watch..."Andy said.

Megan flinched and blushed, pouting hard while their little brother pulled out his signature puppy dog eyes and pout, really wanting to see the movie too.

After a few moments, the pre-teen blonde girl sighed.

"Fine...he can stay. But if Mom gets mad, I had nothing to do with this..."She insisted.

"Alright!..."Henry cheered in excitement.

"Shush!..."Andy and Megan both went.

"Little bro, chill. We said you can hang and watch the movie with us, but you gotta be quiet. Dad's working and needs quiet and mom thinks you're asleep...so you shouldn't make too much racket..."Andy said.

"Oh, really?..."Henry asked, and Megan sighed.

"Rule one of sneaking around Mom and Dad's rules...always try to keep a low profile and not draw much attention, Baby Brother..."Megan said, in her usual "mentor" sort of way when she tried to teach him something.

Andy chuckled at this, while his sister went to some popcorn to enjoy the show, getting a bigger bowl for all of them. Henry was still excited as he tried to climb up to the couch and sat in the middle of it.

Soon, his siblings sat on both sides and were getting ready to watch the flick.

"Alright, brother and sister of mine...time to enjoy a night of horror and chills..."Andy said as he pulled out a remote and pressed play.

The movie and the night of horror officially began.

Oh boy.
