The Sleepover

Lacus and Cagalli were having their weekly sleepover at Lacus's house. They had just finished watching a horror movie and were really tense and sitting in the bright light of a flashlight in Lacus's bedroom. They sat on the floor with soda and a bowl of chips and half a bowl of popcorn. Lacus pulled her soft duvet over her shoulders and shuddered lightly at the awkward silence hovering in the room. Cagalli pulled her hoodie over her head and pulled on her slippers. She sighed outwardly and stood up and walked over to Lacus's stereo.

"What kind of music do you have?" Cagalli asked flipping through the CD book.

"Umm, I think I have everything." Lacus stood up, still holding her duvet around her shoulders. "Hey, that's Kira's." Lacus held up the 'My Chemical Romance' CD. "I wonder why he left it here, he never forgets to take his stuff with him."

"Oh. Well, let's listen to it." Cagalli took it from her and opened the CD player and placed it in quickly.

Long ago Just like the hearse you die to get in again

"How pleasant." Cagalli rolled her eyes. "We should change it."

"Yea. It's giving me goosebumps."

"No. That's the movie we just watched." Cagalli smirked. Lacus giggled and turned on the radio.

"That's better." She smiled sweetly.

"So, what should we do?" Cagalli sat back down on the floor next to the flashlight. "You're dad said we couldn't be too loud."

"Mhmm." Lacus nodded lightly pulling her knees to her chest and pulling her can to her mouth. There was a knock on the front door of the house and the thud echoed throughout the house. Cagalli and Lacus froze staring at the door to Lacus's room.

"This reminds me of that part-"

"You mean, just before that guy killed the sisters?" Lacus turned to Cagalli, her eyes wider than the bowl infront of her.

"Yea. You wanna check who it is?" Cagalli asked standing slowly.

"I want Kira." Lacus shuddered.

"Hmm, he's such a wiener. He's probably sleeping, after all we kept the boys up talking to them throughout the whole movie." Cagalli said through a shaky smile.

"Okay. I guess we have to since Daddy's asleep." Lacus followed Cagalli out of her room and down the long hallway towards the front door. Through the archway and into the porch, the silhouette of a man ran along the floor from the window. A crash of thunder threatened the girls' sanity and the lightning lengthened the shadow.

"Umm… Hello?" Lacus asked through the door. No answer came. "Cagalli?"

"Hey, who's there?" Cagalli snarled.

"Hello." A deep raspy voice swayed through the crack in the door. The 2 shot back from the door both as white as eggs.

"Cagalli!" Lacus hid behind her.

"It's okay. HEY! Why are you using me as a human shield?" Cagalli said turning towards her.

"Oh Girls. Let me in. I promise I won't hurt you." The man's voice came in clear as the lightning once again cast his shadow over them.

"Okay. I'm scared." Cagalli shook. "Should we call the police?"

Lacus nodded quickly. "I'll go wake up my Dad." Lacus dropped her duvet and tore down the hallway towards the master bedroom and violently knocked on the door, but he was so deep in sleep that he didn't wake up. "Cagalli, we have one problem."

"What?" Cagalli asked hanging up the phone.

"Dad's asleep."

"So, wake him up!"

"I can't. After a hard day, you couldn't wake him for anything!" Lacus smirked.

The knock resounded on the door again, louder this time and more threatening. The thunder rolled outside and shook the house a little and then came the lightning and there was a face in the kitchen window. The girls screamed at the top of their lungs and ran back to Lacus's bedroom and shut all the curtains.

"Okay. NOW CAN I BE SCARED?" Cagalli hid under Lacus's bed.

"Hey, move over!" Lacus crawled under beside her.

"Okay. The police are on their way over, we just have to stay calm until then." Cagalli took in a deep breath.

They were beginning to relax until the phone rang and both girls suddenly became aware that it wasn't in her room anymore. Cagalli slowly stood up and pulled the flashlight along with her as Lacus trailed quietly. Cagalli pushed the speakerphone button on the phone in the office.

"Hello girls, miss me?" The man's voice echoed in the walls and Lacus practically fainted but hit the floor quickly diving under the desk. "Please, just open the door. I don't want to scare you." The voice was deep and horrific.

"Okay. This is definitely following that movie. Maybe it was a true story." Cagalli hung up the phone quickly and pulled Lacus up and they ran out of the room quickly and into the living room.

"We just have to wait. Right?" Lacus said shivering.

"Yea." Cagalli was paler than the blanket she was now wrapped in. Until the knock on the living room window scared the hell out of her and she jumped behind the couch in fright. "GO AWAY!" Cagalli cried.

"Please Go Away!" Lacus shuddered.

The lightning lit up the front room and the shadow of the man shot across the floor and up the wall. The girls couldn't find peace in any location in the room and they had about another 10-minute wait before the police would arrive. They sat on the floor next to the pantry outside of the dining room and huddled there. There were footsteps coming around the corner. Lacus stood slowly, her back pressed against the wall and – She tossed her duvet over the person who had just approached them. He flipped on the light and pulled off the blanket.

"Lacus. What are you 2 still doing up?" Mr. Clyne asked eyes narrowed at them.

"Oh. Daddy." Lacus was almost in tears. "There's been someone outside scaring us and they called the house and …"

"Hello. Is anyone in there. This is the police, we had a distress call from this location and we've apprehended the suspect."

Cagalli and Lacus walked towards the door curiously and opened it to see the officers holding Athrun and Kira up by the collar of their shirts.

"Do you know these 2 boys?" The one officer asked.

"Yes." Cagalli placed her hands on her hips as she tapped the floor with her shoe.

"What? Athrun?" Mr. Clyne stood there, his eyes still narrowed.

"Kira. How? Why?" Lacus blushed looking down at her nighty.

"Okay boys. I think you oh these girls an apology." Mr. Clyne said as he sent the officers away with an apology from himself.

"We're sorry." The boys said in unison, looking shamefully down at their toes.

"YOU SHOULD BE!" Cagalli decked Athrun in the shoulder. "And Kira!" She looked angrily at her brother. "When I get home tomorrow, you're going to be sorry." Cagalli smirked.

"Cagalli. Calm down. I'm sure they're very sorry about what they did." Lacus smiled and closed the door after the boys left.

Athrun and Kira walked down the street in their raincoats, and big smiles plastered on their faces. "It might mean a few bruises, but it was sure funny." They laughed all the way back to Athrun's house.
