You watched as Charlie spoke to Mr Wonka, suddenly you all stopped

Mr Wonka had a look on his face that you didn't quite know how to describe

Charlie looked at you and said ' d-did I cause that? '

' I-I'm sure you didn't Charlie '

Eventually Mr Wonka blinked and said ' I'm sorry... I was having a flashback '

' I see...' mr Salt said pulling his daughter into him

' these flashbacks happen often? ' Mr Teavee asked also pulled his son into his side

Mr Wonka took no notice of this and said ' increasingly... today '

You looked at Charlie to see him looking guilty

' hey, you didn't mean to ok? It's not your fault. Im sure you just said the wrong thing ' you said and then ruffled his hair making him glare at you jokingly

What you didn't see was Mr Wonka smile as he saw you do that

Eventually you got to a room labeled ' the Nut Room '

' ah! A room I'll know about! ' Mr Salt said making Veruca look at her father

' hmm? ' Mr Wonka said, acting interested, though you could see in his eyes, he wasn't

' I'm in the Nut Business you see' Mr Salt said and then asked if Mr Wonka if he used some sort of contraption to shell the nuts

' ... no... you're really weird ' Mr Wonka giggled making you smile to yourself

You had to admit, he was quite cute when he wasn't doing his whole Dark and Ominous bit

' SQUIRRELS!' Veruca said with a giant smile

Mr Wonka nodded and said ' yeah! Squirrels! They shell the nuts better than any contraption or machine could! They're all trained to shell the nuts, and tell if it's a good nut or a bad nut '

' wow... so they are happy just shelling nuts all day? ' you asked fascinated

Mr Wonka's face brightened up as you asked that, you hadn't asked many questions yet

' yes! They- ooh! Look I think one of them has got a bad nut! ' Mr Wonka said

You smiled at how he got distracted so quickly 

You watched as it knocked on the nut a few times and then chucked it into a whole in the middle of the room

' amazing ' you muttered under your breath

You and Charlie had never had pets and you hadn't been able to go to the zoo so you only saw the animals your neighbours and people in town had, and that was mainly dogs

' daddy! I want a squirrel ' Veruca said to her father

' yes Veruca,I'll get you a squirrel when we get home! ' Mr Salt said sighing

' no daddy! I don't want just any old squirrel! I want a trained squirrel '

' oh but Veruca you have many marvellous pets at home! ' mr salt said

' All I've got at home is one pony and two dogs and four cats and six bunny rabbits and two parakeets and three canaries and a green parrot and a turtle, and a silly old hamster! I WANT A SQUIRREL '

' what the fu-'

' don't swear, there are children here ' mr wonka whispered in your ear making a blush paint your cheeks

Mr Salt sighed and said ' alright darling, daddy will get you a squirrel, Mr Wonka, name your price'

Mr Wonka looked away from you, who he had been sort of staring at, and said ' hmm? Oh they're not for sale'

' daddy!' Veruca glared

' I'm sorry darling, Mr Wonka's being unreasonable' Mr Wonka said, imitating Mr Salt perfectly

' wow '

' If you won't get me a squirrel! I'll get one myself! ' Veruca said and then climbed through the gate and started walking Down the stairs to the squirrels

' VERUCA! VERUCA GET BACK HERE NOW!' Mr Salt said angrily

That's when Mr Wonka grabbed his keys and started trying to find the right one

You watched in horror as she tried to grab a squirrel but they all attacked her

' VERUCA! DO SOMETHING!' Mr salt yelled at Mr Wonka

They all knocked her to the ground and then the one she tried to grab climbed on her chest

It started knocking on her head

' what are they doing? ' Charlie and you asked at the same time

' they're testing to see if she's a bad nut ' mr wonka said stopping looking through the keys a moment

It squeaked and then they all started dragging her towards the hole

' oh goodness! She is a bad nut after all! '

' DADDYY! I WANT THEM TO STOP!!!' She yelled in tears

Mr Wonka eventually found the key but it was too late, she was down the hole

' perhaps she got stuck! Maybe she's just at the top, if so then you can probably just pull her out! ' mr wonka said opening the gate

Mr salt started walking down the stairs and then the Oompa Loompas came out and sang AGAIN



You watched as a squirrel ran and knocked Mr Salt into the garbage shoot

' where will they go now?' You asked

' oh that leads to the incinerator! But it's only lit on Mondays '

'Today is Monday ' Mike said making your heart drop

' what?! Oh you have to get them to turn it off! ' you said panicking

Suddenly an Oompa Loompa walked to Mr Wonka

' ooh! That's good! The incinerator is broken! They'll just fall on a weeks worth of garbage ' mr wonka giggled

' alright let's keep truckin'' mr wonka said

You smiled as you all followed him

Mr Wonka was extremely good looking

You had to admit

That's when your eyes widened

You were catching feelings
