Hide somewhere in the house.
by: Unknown
While still shocked, you know that your time is limited. Going outside is tempting, but getting out will be hard.

Surely on the table there will be some condensation from cups that you could get when others were asleep, and at the very least, there were plenty of hiding spots that were off the floor, just in case Chelsea goes through with her threat of vacuuming...
