Ch. 8- Trouble
Alvin was playing with a ball in the living room, bouncing it on the wall and catching it.
"Alvin, no ball in the house" J told him.
"Why not?" Alvin whined.
Alvin threw the ball at the wall but missed it when it bounced back.
It bounced all over the room, knocking over vases, picture frames, and the TV.
"That's why!" J yelled.
"J, watch out!" Alvin warned.
J turned around to see the ball flying towards her face.
It hit her and knocked her out.
"Oh, she's gonna hate me for this" Alvin says sadly.
Simon and Theodore came running in.
"What the…" Simon gasped as he saw the mess and their unconscious babysitter.
The three ran to J.
"What did you do?!" Theodore asked.
"Um, ball in the house?" Alvin said nervously.
"Alvin!" Simon and Theodore scolded.
"You gave her a bloody nose and a bruise on her forehead" Simon informed.
"I'm sorry" Alvin apologized.
"J might never wanna babysit us again!" Theodore whimpered.
"I'm gonna get an ice pack and the first aid kit" Simon said and ran to the kitchen.
He came back with the items promised.
Alvin and Theodore cleaned up the mess while Simon cleaned up J.
"I'm gonna make you feel better like you made me feel better" Simon told her.
He iced her forehead and cleaned up her nose.
J's eyes opened her eyes and she saw three concerned faces looking at her.
"Hey, boys. I'm okay, don't even worry about it." J said, getting up "I'm a fairy and fairies heal."
J looked around the room and rolled her eyes.
She used magic to clean up what Alvin and Theodore hadn't.
"Wow!" the boys exclaimed.
"I'm so sorry J!" apologized Alvin.
"Please don't quit like Jenny, or Asia, or Beth, or Carrie or-" Theodore begged.
J pulled the boys for a hug.
"It's okay. And I'm not going anywhere" she assured. "Thank you Simon for cleaning me up and I heard what you said. You did make me feel a whole lot better."
She kissed his cheek.
"So are you mad at me?" Alvin blurted out.
"No, I mean I expected you'd wreck the house or something" said J "Though I didn't see the ball knocking me out."
"I-I said I was sorry" Alvin reminded.
"And I said it was okay" J returned and kissed his forehead.
