(Word Count: 148 Words)

I crept up the stairs. Getting higher, I feel my nerves increase, for I know she is at the top. Step by step I got closer. Her voice floated down the stairs,

"Tonight?" A pause. I froze, shrinking against the wall, fearing she had heard me. A silent sigh of relief escaped me as she, apparently not seeing anything amiss, continued, "Yup, works for me".

She dropped her phone with a scream. As I tackled and began tickling her, she laughed her surrender. I sat back, pleased with myself,
"Ha! I finally got you Sis!"
