Troublesome

Status: Unedited 

A pin drop of hush replaced the chatters. Lucas groaned and pouted. He didn't realise how his words had a double meaning behind what he said. 

His brothers/friends shot weird and contorted expressions towards him. Even Diana/Iris had her mouth half-opened after she heard him.

The girls had more assertive looks spread on their faces. As the time ticked and the sound of the old pendulum echoed. 

Lucas snapped back. 

"What happened? Why has everyone gone mute?" He asked, turning and glancing at both the girls and boys. 

Zeki coughed, "Do you realise what you just said?" 

"Huh? Did I say something wrong? But I don't think I said anything offensive." Bryan's face morphed into puzzlement, not able to grasp a thing at all. 

Scowling and frowning at his reply, "Dude, just go through your recent memory and you will understand what I am trying to say."
