Drabble:10
POV: Christian
The Apocalypse has come! I thought that as I packed my survival kit in my bedroom. We are doomed!
The first sign of the Apocalypse was when I knocked on Rose and Dimitri's apartment this morning and it took Dimitri two minutes to answer the door. Two full minutes! I mean the man can change all 4 tyres of my car in that time!
The second sign was Dimitri-prim, proper and perfect- Belikov answering the door while yawning. Gone was my loyal, ever-vigilant guardian. The man answering the door had bed-head and rumpled clothes and was actually rubbing at his eyes.
The third sign was finding a box of doughnuts on their kitchen counter. Uneaten, chocolate-glazed doughnuts untouched by the resident doughnut-monster cough*Rose*cough.
The next sign was finding my sweet, angelic girlfriend attacking a hamburger. Yup, you heard right. Beautiful Lissa, born and bred royalty, was stuffing her face with the greasy fast food. And not only that, she didn't have on any make-up, wore slacks and was sprawled across Rose's sorry excuse of a couch. Did I mention the hamburger was surrounded by a bottle of Coke, a packet of Gummy Worms, Oreos and a packet of Cheetos? Queen Vasilisa, on her one off morning from duties, was having a pig-out.
But the next sight, which convinced me of the impending doom, was so unexpected…that I couldn't help but wonder if I was trapped in some sort of a dream or had entered some parallel universe. Because- you might wanna brace yourself now- Rose Hathaway looked up at me and smiled. Actually smiled, and then she went back to what she was doing. What might you ask was Ms Lazy-ass doing? She was reading a book! Yep, you heard right, Rosemarie Hathaway was reading a book, and just not any book, but Pride and Prejudice at that!
I think I muttered some sort of an expletive then, because the two females shot me a look and then resumed their activities. I stood there for a few minutes, waiting for someone to shout April's fool (even if it was September). Then, unable to take it anymore, I quickly excused myself and hightailed it back to my apartment, and on my way, I bumped into Rose's mobster daddy, who was walking out of the Court's church, dressed all in conservative black. God help us all!
So that is why I was in my bedroom right now, debating over the necessity of Trail Mix for survival. Its necessary, isn't it? Or maybe I should pack doughnuts, so I can run away from Rose if she tries to eat me or something.
So what's the verdict, Trail mix or doughnuts? :p Thank you for reading!
