⁀➷ 17- ALL BECAUSE OF A SPIDER

-𝐌𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐝𝐲-

Tessa and I were in her room, just talking and chilling.

"Well, yesterday I-"

"Hey, Melody?"

I looked up to the doorway to see Ian peeking his head through.

"Can you come here for a sec? I wanna show you something."

Confused, I shared a look with Tessa and stepped out into the hallway.

"Yeah?"

I noticed that Ian was hiding something behind his back. He brought his hands out to reveal one of the things I hated most.

A tarantula.

So naturally, I screamed and ran away.

(did I mention that I hate tarantulas? i can take the average spider but I HATE tarantulas.)

I ran down the hall and into the bathroom, and I could see Ian behind me. But somehow, my shirt got stuck on that hanger thing where you hang your towel.

I have no idea how, but Ian suddenly tripped and the tarantula flew out of his hands-

-and into my shirt.

I screamed again, frozen in place as I could feel tiny footsteps on my back.

"Whoops," Ian pulled the spider out and placed it into a small container that was on the sink.

He got my shirt unstuck, and as soon as I was free, I slapped him, hard.

"I'm done with you!"

And with that, I stormed out of the house and to my own.

thinking back, i might have overreacted just a little....
