The Teapot Tickles

'Ivy! You're about as graceful as a bull in a china shop, if that china shop was my lap and the bull was a clumsy tornado made entirely of spilled tea leaves and idiocy!' I yell after Ivy as she runs away from me giggling. I sigh and shake my hands to try and shake the tea clinging to them onto the floor.

'Get back here you!' I exclaim as I get to my feet and chase after her, leaving a trail of spilt tea in my wake.

'NA-NAH-NI-NA-NAH' Ivy yells in a sing-song tone, accidentally alerting me to her hiding spot.


'Found ya!' I cry. I bend behind the couch to drag her out so that I can tickle her. I pull her out and start tickling her relentlessly. Ivy starts giggling.

'ST-OP-IT' She yells, her plead being cut into by her hiccups.

'NEVER' I cry giggling.


The sound of the front door opening causes us to stop.

'Girls! I'm Home' A voice says cheerfully

'H-i M-um' Ivy yells, still hiccuping.
