Don't Mess With Ouija Boards

[CC's POV]

I couldn't sleep so I went in to check on Raven. She was curled into a ball on her side with Crow in the same position on top of her. I laughed and went back to packing for tour. I'm down to just the small stuff now, movies and snacks mostly. I'll grab the supplies for Raven's birthday present when the stores open, and her present right before we leave. I really hope she likes it, and that Jinxx doesn't get pissed about it. I probably should have asked him and Ever first. Too late now, better to ask forgiveness! By the time I was finished packing the sun was coming up.

I heard Raven yelling again, and ran to her as fast as I could. She wasn't in the bed, I saw a light coming from the bathroom and ran to it.

"Ray, are you okay?"

"No, help!" She squeaked out.

I threw the door open and saw her standing on the toilet holding Crow to her tightly.

"What's wrong?"

"HUGE FUCKING SPIDER, SAVE ME!"

I turned and looked to where she was pointing and freaked out inside and jumped up with her.

"Maybe if we put Crow down, he'll see it and get it. Cats hunt spiders, right?"

"Yeah, that'll work."

She let Crow down. The big baby ran away under the bed. We were trapped in her small bathroom with a gigantic spider. It started moving closer to us and we both let out an ungodly scream.

Andy came barreling in to see what was wrong.

"I don't know if I want to ask." He said shaking his head.

I pointed over to the terror on the wall.

"Really CC? A grown ass man and teenage girl freaking out over a spider?" He half laughed
as is jumped off the wall landing on his shoulder. He started screaming too, brushing it away.

"SEE ANDREW! WE HAVE REASONS TO FREAK OUT!" Raven whisper shouted.

Andy was now standing with us on top of the toilet somehow. "Who should we yell to save us?"

"UNCLE JEREMY!!!!!! HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLP!" Raven squealed.

Jinxx came thundering down the hall in a blind panic. Once he saw Andy with Raven on his back and standing behind me on the toilet, pointing at the spider, he busted out laughing.

"JAKE GRAB THE GO PRO! YOU'RE GOING TO WANT TO FILM THIS!" Jinxx shouted.

[Jake's POV]

I woke up when I heard screaming. I grabbed the camera and started recording.

"So I woke up to Raven and I think CC screaming a little bit ago. Everything quieted down, now I've been called in with my camera, so this has to be good. Let's go check it out."

I walked into Raven's room to see Jinxx standing at her door.

"What's up man?" I asked.

"There's two and a half adults in there, freaking out over a spider. Go look. It's hysterical."
I go in and started immediately started laughing. Andy is holding raven, while he and CC are standing on the toilet.

"Really you three?" I pan down to the spider on the floor. "He's not even that big."

I shoo it with my foot towards them. CC jumped back a bit making Andy fall on to the tank. I shoo it again and they all freaked out. I heard something crack and didn’t think anything of it.

Jinxx tossed me a shoe and I killed the spider, or so I thought. Dozens of baby spiders scattered in every direction. Raven jumped in Andy's arms and screamed.

"I'm so glad I'm filming this." I laughed.

Some of the babies ran toward the toilet. All three of them shifted and the toilet shattered.

Water and glass everywhere. Andy and CC were drenched. Raven was a little luckier and was held up out of most of it.

"Andy, reach behind you and turn the water off!" Jinxx yelled as he ran for towels.

"HOLLY FUCKSTICK, BABY SPIDERS EVERYWHERE, AND I'M GETTING SOAKED! JAKE, PUT THE GOPRO DOWN AND HELP ME!" Raven said crying.

"Watch out for the glass and reach out to me, Andy, lift her up a bit." I said reaching out.

Everly came in with a mop and towels, shaking her head. "Here you two go since you broke it."

I started laughing as I walked passed her with Raven.

[Raven's POV]

I took the Go Pro from Jake, "For the record, that was not funny at all. Spiders are the worst
creatures ever, and as punishment, I'll be taking over Jake's bathroom until mine is fixed, and I'm stealing his bunk on the bus later."

He laughed and took the GoPro from me. "You can have that bunk, it's under Ash."

"Fuck! I change my mind. You keep your bunk!"

"Too late, you said it, I have it on video. Which, is going to be edited and posted before we leave."

[Everly's POV]

I went into the kitchen to start breakfast, while Andy and CC finished the bathroom. Only
those two I swear. Jinxx came in and breakfast for seven took no time at all to cook. I got Jake and Raven from his room. I doubt she's going back in hers after the spider fiasco.

"Ash, breakfast is done." I yelled banging on his door."

I went back in to Ray's room to get CC and Andy.

"CC, Andrew, break- HOLY SHIT ANDY! YOU'RE BLEEDING!"

"How did we not notice that?" CC asked him.

"Fuck! Ev, can you bandage me up?"

"Let me clean it up and we'll seen. CC, go eat. I may need you or Ashley to take him to the
E.R. if I can't."

He nodded and headed out. Andy walked over to the sink where I had first aid supplies pulled out.

"Andy, this looks pretty bad. I think you may have glass bits in there."

"I'm more worried about Ray. Is she okay?"

"Aside from being drenched and taking over Jake's room, she's good. I heard her muttering something about you, Ash, and Christian being the messiest guys she's ever met. She took her comforter and pillow to Jake's room and is on his sofa."

As we talked, I pulled glass out of his cut.

"I'm glad she's okay. Damn I hope I didn't mess up any tattoos."

"I think those are good. I do think you're going to need stitches though. I'll bandage you enough so you can eat and go."

"Thanks Ev. Don't know what I would do without you." He said hugging me as we walked to the kitchen.

"You're welcome. Now let's go eat so we can finish what we need to before tour tomorrow."

[Raven's POV]

"Thanks for breakfast Aunt Ever. I haven't had something like that in a long time."

"You're welcome kiddo. Get ready for our shopping trip, we'll leave when I'm done."

"Mind if I tag along Raven?" Ash asked.

"Um, sure Ash." I told him.

CC walked back in, "Jinxx and I are running King Clutz to the E.R. Want to meet up later for lunch?"

"Seriously? CC, I just got breakfast, can I let you know closer to lunch?"

"Sure thing kiddo."

I hate being called kiddo, I might snap if I hear it anymore. I finished my food as quickly as I could and hurried to get ready. Shopping with Ash and Ever should be pretty fun. At least they have great taste in clothes.

"Hey Ray?"

"Yeah Ash?"

"Think fast!" He shouted and threw something at me.

I squealed and ducked. I heard metal hit the floor.

"Everly is going to kick your ass for scratching up her floor." I said as I looked at what he threw to me.

I looked at him with my mouth wide open in shock. Surely he's messing with me. Why would he throw me his keys?

"A-are you sure Ashley?"

"I wouldn't have given you the keys if I wasn't. Can you drive standard?"

"Hell yeah I can!"

"Language Ray." Jinxx called out as he passed by.

I did a happy dance as I ran to get dressed and out the door. Could this week get any better?

[CC's POV]

This has to be the longest day ever! I cannot believe we waited four hours for Andy to be
seen and still not discharged.

"This is bullshit!" Andy exclaimed.

"Exactly what I was thinking. I just messaged your sister and told her we're still waiting. She's pissed too." I offered him another snack from the vending machine.

"Thanks." Andy smiled.

"I'll warn you, I have a feeling she and Jinxx are going to be even more pissed at what I got Ray for her birthday. I may need your help hiding the stuff for it when we get on the bus in the morning."

"What are you doing CC? If you can piss off the two most laid back people we know at the same time, it's got to be bad. Please tell me it's not a car."

"Not that big physically, but responsibility wise, yes."

"Ev said no more animals. Crow drives her crazy."

"But she won't be able to resist Crash! He's so cute and sweet!" I said showing him the picture of him.

"Raven said she's always wanted one. I found a breeder that had one left that went unclaimed. She was going to take him to the shelter because no one wanted him. In her words, he is too needy and affectionate. I think he's perfect for Ray."

"I'm in. Let's start making a list of supplies and let John know what we're doing. That way he can get us pet friendly hotels when we need them."

[Everly's POV]

I glanced down at my watch, "Holy shit you two! It's six thirty. So much for not being out all day."

"Ev, you know you had fun with us. It was worth the time out. Besides, we're not going to get much time to do this on the road." Ash said with a grin.

"I've had a great time today. Thanks Aunt Ever and you too Ash." Ray said hugging me and Ashley.

"No problem. We have one more stop before heading home for dinner though. Ash, could you take some of this to the car?"

"Sure. I'll be waiting out there." He said taking a few more bags with him.

"Come on Raven." I grabbed her hand and took off.

"Where are we going?" She laughed.

"Here!" I said suddenly stopping at a jewelry store.

"Okay..." Ray said with a questioning look.

"Time to start a tradition for us. Every tour, we'll get a new charm bracelet and fill it as we tour. By the end, we'll have bad ass matching bracelets."

"That sounds amazeballs!"

The sales woman came over and we told her our idea. She thought it was amazing and gave us the idea to have the first charm have the tour date and name on it. We left with the promise to come back and show her our finished bracelets, and start the future ones with her.

We walked back to the car talking about what tour will be like, and what rules will be in place. I was so glad we got the idea to buy Raven new luggage while we were out and pack her new stuff as we bought it all. It made things so much easier. We got it shoved in the trunk and I opened the door and got in.

"I ordered Chinese and pizza to be delivered while I waited on you two. It should be there right before us." Ash told us.

"You’re an amazing guy, Ash!" I said with a sigh, realizing how bad my feet hurt.

Once she got in, Raven gushed about our last stop and idea. He grinned ear to ear listening as he drove home. The rest of the night went by as quickly as our day.

I really hope we don't end up forgetting anything, or anyone, like last time.
