*Autumn POV*
I head downstairs I find Fred in the billards room.
"I can't believe that I went along with this. He thinks he was freaked out?"
"Fred, calm down. I doubt that we need another angry guy in this house. Besides, if all else fails I have a plan to get all 3 of us off the hook and get the blame on someone else."
I grin and Fred looks at me.
"For someone beautiful, you are the most evil girl in the world."
"Thanks. I try my hardest."
"So you think McLean is having any luck with his keys?"
I am asked while Fred comes over and puts his arms around me.
"I say he isn't. He knows she is up to something but I doubt he will get his keys back."
"Autumn, do me a favor?"
"Um, I might. What?"
"If AJ and Tre ever visit us, don't pull anything like this on me."
I laugh.
"Okay, we won't. We''ll just steal your hat and put glue in it."
Fred and I start to kiss but we hear AJ and Tre coming down the stairs.
"And I say I don't have your keys AJ."
"And I say you do."
I look at Fred.
"Don't you dare give him your keys or else Tre will have to hurt you. And baby you don't want that.
*Tre POV*
We walk into the pool room and see Autumn and Fred
"Hey who's winning?" I ask.
They look at me confused but then understand
"Oh, I was just shooting by myself" Fred says to me.
"Oh ok, cool."
"TRE! I know you have my keys. They don't walk off by themselves" Aj insists.
"I don't have your keys Aj, I don't know what to tell you"
I tell him as I walk over to the window.
"All I want is Mcdonalds. why are you doing this?" He whines.
I turn around and look at him.
"Awww poor baby can't have you favorite food."
I say to him a little too sarcastically
"Oh now that was mean Tre, why are you being like that?" He asks me.
"I'm sorry honey. I know how much you like Mcd's"
I apologize and walk over to him and wrap my arms around his waist.
"well why won't you give me my keys?" He asks me.
"For the hundredth time. I don't have your keys" I tell him.
"Durst...give me your keys"
Aj says to Fred. I turn around and look at Autumn and then at Fred. I give Fred a look I hope he understands clearly
*Autumn POV*
"McLean, I would but I seemed to misplace them."
"Man I can't believe this. Now you are doing this to me."
"No man I really misplaced them. I have no idea where they are."
AJ says he'll be right back. Tre looks over at Fred.
"Thanks Fred."
"For what? I seriously misplaced them!"
I laugh and look over at Tre.
"And you thought Nick was bad."
"Oh yeah that reminds me.."
Tre says as she comes up behind me and hits me in the head.
"HEY! What did I do?"
"You know what you did!"
"No I don't. All I know is I have been minding my own business."
"Yeah but when AJ and I were talking you were listening. I heard you laugh."
"Oh...I only laughed cause he was being honest. You wouldn't know innocent if it came up and looked you in the face." I heard Fred laugh. "Fred, you're a good one to laugh. You wouldn't know it either!" I say.
"Oh and you would?" Fred and Tre say in unison.
"Yes I would. I know how to be an angel."
"Only when you want something," Tre says.
Fred nods agreeing.
"And that is all that matters."
We hear AJ talking to Marcus. Our eyes grow wide, we didn't even hear him come over, and we run behind AJ and start making gestures to Marcus not to give AJ his keys or get him some food.
*Tre POV*
We are waving our hands in back of Aj trying to let Marcus know he can't go get Aj food or give him the keys to his car. Marcus is looking at us totally confused
"Marcus man come on either let me borrow your car or can you go get me some McDonalds?" Aj asks him.
I start shaking my head no
"Umm well uhh sorry I can't Aje. I have places to go today."
Marcus tells him and the 3 of us sigh in relief.
"Aww come on dude, just a few minutes" Aj practically whines.
"Sorry man, I can't. I gotta go"
Marcus tells him and goes to the door. I follow him and open the door for him
"Thanks Marc" I tell him.
"Your welcome girl, but you better explain later on" He tells me.
"I will, I promise" I tell him and he leaves.
"ALL I WANT IS FOOD. WHY IS EVERYONE AGAINST ME"
I hear AJ yell as I head to the kitchen. He stomps up the stairs and slams our bedroom door.
"Ok, I think I know what he is going to do next." I tell them.
I go over to the phone and pick it up.
"Come on Nick, answer"
I hear Aj say from the bedroom phone.
"lo?" Nick answers.
"Nick, man thank you for being home" Aj says to him.
"Umm your welcome..what's up Aje?"
"I need a huge favor"
"What's that?"
"Would you bring me over some McDonalds?"
Aj asks him and I hear Nick bust up laughing.
"Why don't you go get it?" He asks.
"Well I believe my sweet angelic girlfriend, do you hear the sarcasm there? is hiding my keys" Aj tells Nick.
'I do believe the boy is in trouble for that one' I think to myself.
"Why would Tre do that?" Nick asks him.
"I don't know. Whenever her and Autumn get together no one ever knows what they are gonna pull"
He tells Nick and I have to move the phone away from me as I start to laugh.
"Alright man I'll go. same as always?"
"Yea man and thanks" AJ tells him
"Yea yea. You owe me"
"Ok, no problem" Aj says and they hang up.
I hang up the phone and look at Fred and Autumn
"Ok, he got Nick to go get the food"
*Autumn POV*
"Damn!" Fred says.
I look over at Tre and grin evilly.
"Tre, wasn't Nick suppose to get a new video system and a game?"
Tre smiles.
"Yeah he was."
We stand there smiling.
"Okay, what are you up to?" Fred asks.
"Oh you'll see. Tre, dial up Nick's number."
"Okay." she says laughing. "They are to call him when the new X Box comes out."
"Okay, where does Nick get this stuff?"
Tre tells me and I am trying not to laugh. I hear Nick's phone ringing.
"Hello?"
"Yes, is this Mr. Nick Carter?"
"Yeah?"
I went into detail, saying I was an associate at the store and that we had got the nex X Box's in and a few games but we were expecting them to go fast. I had to pull the phone away when Nick screamed.
"I'll be there in a few minutes!"
With that he hung up the phone. I turned back around.
"Tre, you might want to call the others and tell them not to get AJ McDonald's."
"And how am I suppose to do that?"
"Well, uh..."
Fred jumped in.
"Say he and I were playing pool and lost a bet and he has to go without McDonald's for the night."
*Tre POV*
"Ohhh Fred, you are learning the ways to Autumn and Tre well" I tell him. I walk over and dial up Brian. "Hey b-rok"
"Hey Tre, what's up?"
"Well I'm calling because I have a feeling aje will be calling you soon to ask you to do a favor" I tell him
"Ok, what kind of favor?" Brian asks suspiciously.
"He will ask you to get him Mcdonalds."
I tell him and he laughs
"Ok, and what's wrong with that?" He asks me.
"Well, see him and Fred were playing pool last night and they had a bet. Aj lost so he lost the bet and now he can't have McDonalds for tonight" I tell him
"Ohh I know he is hating that"
"Yes he is. I think the poor boy is having withdrawls."
The right at that moment...as if to prove my point we hear Aj yell
"ALL I WANT IS MCDONALDS"
"See, bri?" I ask him.
"Yea I see." He says laughing.
"Will u do me another favor?" I ask him.
"Of course Tre, what?"
"Call Kev and Howie for me and tell them"
"Alright can do."
"Thanks bri"
"Your welcome. Bye"
"Later" I hang up the phone and smile at Autumn and Fred. "Now lets see what happens."
*Autumn POV*
We sit around for about 10 minutes when we hear AJ cussing up a storm.
"Is it a crime now to want MCDONALD"S!!!! Man this is so UNFAIR!"
I sit there and start feeling sorry for AJ. I look at Tre and Fred. They can see the pity on my face that I have for AJ.
"Guys, maybe we should..."
"No way. This is getting too good," Fred tells me.
I sigh and what do I happen to see across my view? I see Fred's keys. I slowly get up and try to get them and keep them from jingling.
"And where are you going?" Tre asks me.
"Um, to the bathroom."
Suddenly the keys jingle and I hear Tre yell
"Fred, Stop her! We can't let her do this!"
I make a mad dash for the steps. I have to feel guilty at this point and I feel I owe AJ since I was part of it.
*Tre POV*
I watch Fred chase after Autumn and then make a mad dash for the back stairs and head her off at the top.
"UH and what are YOU doing?" I ask her.
She looks at me and was about to make a try to get around me when Fred grabs her from behind.
"AH Fred!" she yells.
"Uh uh can't let ya do it baby" He tells her.
"But we are being cruel"
"No we're not. This is pay back for times he did stuff to me" I tell her.
She gives me a look that says 'but still' but I don't back down. I stick my hand out for the keys and she reluctantly gives them to me.
"Fred follow me and ummm bring Autumn along" I tell him.
He smiles and takes her hand and follows me
"But..uhh where, what are you doing?" She asks me.
I turn and smile and walk into a room. Fred follows and practically drags Autumn with him.
"Ok, Autumn the penalty for Traitorism (laughter) is this." I grab a cd "Fred sit her down please" He smiles and gives out a chuckle and has her sit down. "Now you can't move from that seat or I will have to find another thing to do and it will be worse then this one" I tell her and hit play on the cd player. "Come on Fred" and him and I start to walk out "Remember no leaving the seat"
"But Tre, Fred what is going on?"
She asks as we close the door. We stand by it and listen. A few seconds pass by and then we hear music start and Autumn scream
"NOOOOOOO"
I smile evilly and walk away from the room where Christina Aguilara is playing
*Autumn POV*
I want to move, but worse than this? How could it get worse? I sit and try to think of anything else but can't. I am yelling how cruel they are being to me. Some friend and boyfriend, I think. Just as I am about to plunge something into my ears, AJ walks in.
"Autumn, what are you yelling about?"
"AJ..please..stop..song..please!"
Aj just looks at me and laughs.
"And what do I get out of this deal?"
"Info...just please help me! I'm sorry..I tried helping you but ..AH! I'm fading.."
AJ walks over and takes out the cd and breaks it.
"AJ, you are my new hero."
"Okay, now...who has my keys?"
"Tre! She has them in her purse!"
"I see. Autumn, come with me."
I sit.
"I can't. if I get out of the chair, I get worse torture than that. Worse how I dunno."
"Okay, tell you what.. I'll tell them I found you but you wouldn't tell me anything. Then they might come back and get you. But in the mean time, listen to this, ok?"
I nod and AJ hands me some headphones and I get to listen to the soothing sounds of Led Zepplin. I watch as AJ heads out and I can tell something is gonna happen. Too bad I have to miss it. But I make a mental note to get back at Tre and Fred.
*Tre POV*
Fred and I are standing in the kitchen when Aj walks in. I look up at him and he smiles at me and I know something is up.
"Hi baby"
He says and walks over and kisses me
"Uh hey"
I say back watching him move over to the fridge.
"What's up, man?" Fred asks him.
"Nothing much. Figured if I can't get mcd's I would come down and get a drink"
"Oh, cool" Fred says.
Fred and I look at each other and Fred raises his eyebrow. I shrug my shoulders. I don't hear any screaming coming from upstairs and I get curious as to why so I start to head up.
"Hey baby" AJ yells at me.
I turn around and look at him and when I do I get sprayed in the face with water from the sprayer on the sink faucet.
"AJ!!!!"
I start screaming and he is laughing.
"Give me my keys, now" He yells at me.
"STOP! AJ!" I keep yelling at him.
"Not until I have my keys" He tells me.
He is so involved in getting me soaked that he doesn't notice Fred coming up from behind to turn off the water.
"AJ!!!" I continue screaming.
Finally the water is turned off and Aj turns around and looks at Fred
"Sorry man, couldn't let you drown her" He tells Aj.
"I want my keys. I know you have them Tre and I want them now"
I grab a towel and start to wipe off
"I don't have your keys baby" I tell him innocently.
"I don't believe you honey. I keep telling you, you don't do innocent well"
I stick my tongue out at him
"meanie"
I tell him and walk down the hall towards the bathroom.
"I want my keys Tre"
"I don't have them AJ" I yell at him and then close the door. 'Autumn, you are sooo gonna get it' I think as I get a bigger towel to dry off
*Autumn POV*
I'm sitting in the room and the Zepplin cd ends. Thinking a good time has passed, I get up and head back downstairs as I hear AJ.
"I know you have my keys."
I try walking up without being seen but it don't work as Fred turns and sees me.
"What are you doing in here? "
Tre looks at me and I laugh.
"What happened to you? Go swimming?"
"Shut up Autumn. That cd can't be over!"
"It sure is and I have come to realize something."
Fred looks at me.
"And what exactly is that?"
I can't believe I am about to say this.
"I like her music now." Tre drops the towel into the floor. I walk over and hug Tre. "Thanks for opening my eyes." Fred and Tre stand shocked. I look at AJ and start laughing.
"Damn, I should have known she was kidding," Tre says.
I then look at AJ.
"AJ, I'm sorry."
"For what Autumn?"
I look at Fred and Tre and can tell they are still mad at me. I have to do something to make up for turning on them.
"I'm sorry I lied to you about Tre having your keys." AJ's jaw dropped. "I only said that so I wouldn't have to listen to that...thing anymore."
AJ turns around and I look over to Tre and Fred and wink at them.
"So who has my keys?" AJ asks.
*Tre POV*
I look over at Fred and he smiles and we both look at Autumn. AJ looks at her
"Autumn?" He asks.
"What? Oh no, I don't have them" She tells him.
"Well damn it one of you have my keys. Fred?" He asks turning to him.
"Sorry bro, I dont' have them either." He tells him.
"I don't believe you 3. This is all your fault, me wanting McDonalds, and now you won't let me get any. by the way, where in the hell is Nick?" He asks all of a sudden.
I smile and look at Autumn and we try hard not to laugh
"Nick? Why is he supposed to be here?" I ask Aj.
"Huh? oh no, nevermind"
He says and walks into the pool area.
"Wanna go for a swim baby?" I ask him.
"No not really" He says to me. "I would just love to get my keys" He says to me
"Oh ok." I say and walk off.
"Tre?"
"Yea baby?"
"Can I please have my keys?"
"I don't have them Alex" I tell him.
He sighs and turns back around
"I tell ya, you all will pay for this" I hear him whisper.
Autumn, Fred and I walk back into the kitchen.
"You know guys we have to have this last until tomorrow" I tell them
"Why 'til then?" Fred asks me.
I smile at him
"Well cause then we can blame it on Nick"
I tell him and Autumn busts up laughing
"Oh that's cruel girl" She says to me.
"I know"
I tell her and we all laugh
*Autumn POV*
"So Autumn were you setting up something in your mind?" Tre ask.
"No. I just realized that turning on you was wrong. I have to look at both your ugly mugs so I might as well say sorry for trying to end the fun. As I sat listening to Zepplin I recalled the time AJ stole my fries and ate them and then another time he stole my fries from BK and threw them at me. So I had to get payback. You guys will forgive me, right?"
Tre rolls her eyes.
"Girl, I forgive ya. Just don't do it again! Now if you excuse me, I think I am gonna go hide AJ's keys in the one place he won't look."
"And where is that?" Fred ask.
"Behind the winter clothes. So if he tries coming up stairs, yell something so I can hide. Okay?"
"Sure thing," I say. We watch Tre grab her purse and walk out. "So do you forgive me for what I done?' I ask Fred.
"Yeah. I can't stay mad at you forever now can I? Just don't be pissed at me for doing what had to be done okay baby?"
"Okay Fred." We kiss and I grin.
"What is goign through your mind right now?"
"Oh, well...."
I stop as I hear AJ.
"Need McDonald's...MUST HAVE McDonald's. Must call Nick..."
