(okay so i figured out what been happening. It keep on making me unfollow this…. >:[
Isuel listened and followed Zara, wondering what the fog machines looked like. Hes never set up for halloween before so he didnt really know what to do. "Are the fog machines complicated?" He asks her a little nervously. Yeah it was rather pitiful, but he got really nervous around most machines. Ovens especially. Though he didnt quite know if that counted as a machine, but he didnt like them. He could always suck it up and deal with it.
Zara laughed at his nervousness. "Nah! All you have to do is add some water, set it to a intensity and turn it on, though we don't need to do that until tonight." She explained as she neared the haunted house. "Oh and some of the jump scare props might be on so watch out." She jokingly warned.
"oh…….. uh okay. Thanks for warning me" He let out a nervous laugh scratching the back of his head trying to remember where they put them, though failing. He got scared way too easily than he would like to let it.
Zara walked into the haunted house and walked behind a prop tree. "Here's the first one." She said, waving him over.
"Oh okay…." He says looking around carefully for any more. He was actually excited for this to be over so he could go in it. Though he didn't think he was going to be able to. He would probably get stuck helping. And anyway, if he did go in it when it was fully set up, he would need someone to go with.
And unfortunately, he didn't have anyone.
Zara unscrewed the lid that was on the top of the machine. "Looks like someone already filled them so we get the easy part. You just turn the dial to 6 so then when it come for the right time they just turn it on." She explained. "There should be one in the grave yard, the doll room, the murders room, the torture chamber and aliens lab. Which ones do you want?"
"I honestly don't care which one really." He says with a shrug.
(Sorry it's short, I'm a little busy and I'm trying to reply to all of my RPS quickly)
(I can tell. Don't worry about it.)
"Alright. I'll take the graveyard, torture chambe and aliens lab. You can grab the rest." Zara said as she wandered off into the house.
(XD again, sorry)
"Okay," he says quietly. He wandered off into the dollhouse first. He walked into the creepy room as all of the dolls turned to look at him. It looked like they had already put in all of the mechanisms. A life-sized doll in a poofy little dress turned to him and smiled, fake dust covered her face. "Oh! Isuel! Sorry!" The girl says dusting her dress off. Isuel stepped back with wide eyes. "Woah! I thought you were a doll! Sorry!" He says letting out a little laugh mixed with nervousness and relief.
"Oh! No, haha. Sorry about that." She says as a little blush rose to her cheeks. (I shall make things interesting now)
(?)
Zara wandered into the graveyard. She found a machine behind a fake crypt and set it to 6 before heading else where.
(Idk, this girl is gonna like Isuel and its gonna be painfully obvious. And maybe Zara will notice and….actually idk how Zara would react. I'm just making something happen romance wise.)
Isuel smiled at her, though forced….and confused. "So uh, did you come for the machine!?" She asks Isuel trying not to make things even more awkward than they were.
"Yeah…. Where is that?" He says looking around a little bit. The girl looked at him, then twirled around and tried to find the machine. "Oh! Here it is!" She says revealing it, which was underneath a little curtain that they haven't put up yet.
"Uh, do you think you could help me put this curtain up? I would do it but…." She looked up to the window where she needed to put it with a sigh. "I'm a little too short for that" she says as a hint of red-tinted her cheeks. Isuel steps over, grabbing the curtain and reaching up to the window and putting it in place. He looked back down to her forcing an awkward smile. "Thank you!" She smiles back at him, stepping out of his way of the machine. He knelt down to the machine without a word and remembered what Zara had told him. He did exactly that, waited a few seconds, then stood up.
"Well i think that's all…. Onto the next one" he mumbled to himself with a satisfied grin, forgetting about the girl until her voice interrupted the silence. "Oh! Would you like some help!? I'm done with this room and the teachers told me that I can't do much. But what you just did seemed pretty easy!" She says swaying back and forth as her hands clasped one another behind her back. Her light blonde hair swaying across her back with every movement.
"Uhm….sure?" Isuel shrugged. He did feel a little bad, so why not.
Zara had already finished the other rooms and was wondering what was taking Isuel so long. "I had on more room than he did. Did he get lost?" She wondered.
Isuel and the random strange girl went around with each other finding the machines and setting them up, ready to be used. They, then went out to where him and Zara had met up before. He looked around for her, but couldn't see her anywhere.
Zara headed back to the entrance, where Isuel was. "There you are!" She said, moseying on over to him with her hands stuffed in her pocket. "Could you not find them? Who is this?" She asked. She already knew who it was but she had a certain tone in her voice directed towards her.
He smiled and gave Zara a quick little wave before turning back to the girl, a little bit of confusion in his eyes.
"uh actually, I don't know" He says looking at the girl "oh, Grace." She says with a smile
"Well, apparently this is Grace. I found her in the dollhouse! I thought she was one of the dolls" He says looking away a bit embarrassed. He didn't really blame himself though. She was pretty small!
Zara smirked. "You are pretty tiny." She said as she got closer to them. "So are you ready to go Isuel?" She asked, ignoring Grace and almost purposely putting space between him and Grace.
(yesssss)
Isuel stepped away a little and nodded. "where to?" He asks her with a tiny head tilt.
"We still have to help silly!" She joked, ruffling up his hair a bit. "Come on. They're probaby wondering whats taking so long."
Grace stepped back with a smile, a little disappointed. Though she wasn't about to say anything.
This was Zara we were talking about! She would probably beat her up if she so much as squeaked! And who was he to her anyway? Her boyfriend? No…… that couldn't be. Right?
She politely stood there just in case Isuel wanted to talk to her more.
Isuel nodded once again "mhm" He smiled. "So what more do we need to do?" He wasn't used to her doing things like that. Calling him silly and ruffling his hair? But he kinda liked it…..
”Probably need us to move a few more things around and what not.” Zara explained before glancing back at Grace. She gave her a look that basically said ”Mine, b!tch~”.
Grace stepped back and smiled… well tried to. "Okay uh, well see ya around Isuel Bye!" Grace then turned around and ran off.
Isuel waved her goodbye and turned over to Zara. "so…. wheres Ms Potter…… she was telling everyone where to go….. maybe she went home." He mumbled to himself running his fingers through his honey brown hair
Zara looked around. "Did they ditch us?" She said as she laughed. "I guess we were in there longer than we expected!"
"uh, yeah probably." He says with a sigh. After this, he was planning on going to the coffee shop. Or honestly anyway really. As long as it was away from his house. They had started to put up a little Halloween themed amusement park nearby. It was a little carnival with rides like usual. Maybe Zara would like to go to it with him. Though the rides were a little scary. It wasn't like any of his friends would go with him. But that was only because he had none. Other than Zara. But now that he thought about it…. did she consider them friends? He wasn't going to ask of course.
His mind got back onto the carnival. He decided that if she wanted to go or if she knew about it, she would ask him.
Rejection hit him way too hard for him to bring himself to ask her.
Zara had always considered Isuel a friend. She was aware that she had scared him at first but she had always thought of him as someone she needed to protect, like her brother and Ava. "Do you want to go somewhere?" She asked as she walked out of the carnival.
"uh, sure! Where to?!" He says with a smile. He was so releived and happy that she asked.
He wished he was able to ask her first. "why cant i be a gentleman and grow a pair" he thought to himself.
