Editing Alvah's movie night

====10 year old Alvah is having a movie night with some friends.====
"Oh yeah of course, my dad isn't home we can have movie night at my place! " <br/><br/>
Of course dad is not always home but he has the tendency to show up suddenly.<br/>
But he left earlier today usually he doesn't come back so fast.<br/>
The girls and I have been planning this for a bit now. I met them via my martial arts classes. <br/>
The boys always go to the arcade or go race their bikes or go to a movie. They never invite us, stupid boys. <br/><br/>
I had already prepared for the girls to come over, made a path through the hedge and have a rope ready to climb to my room. <br/>
If Nigel finds out I am sure dad will learn of it too. <br/><br/>
"So we all see each other at the corner. Bring snacks and such. " <br/><br/>
Later that night we are all there. I lead them through the garden until we are under the balcony of my room. I hold out the rope and we help each other go up. On the balcony I open my door and we silently move in. <br/>
I hear the exclamations of the girls that I live in such a house. <br/>
I then turn around "so we all brought something do I need to get something from the kitchen? " <br/><br/>
Lara holds out a back with corn kernels<br/>
"You have to pop these. I couldn't get popcorn ready in time. "<br/>
I sigh "fine salty or sweet? " <br/>
The decision became caramel with a short explanation of sugar in a pan above heat. <br/><br/>
"Yeah yeah I'll make it. Just pick out some movies." <br/><br/>
Quietly I move to the kitchen grabbing a few pans, butter sugar. <br/><br/>
This shouldn't be that hard I thought.<br/>
Starting the popcorn I suddenly realize. Lid! Else the popcorn will fly everywhere. The haply popping sounds start.<br/><br/> 
Now for caramel. A pan sugar. How much should I use. Ah well fill it up and we will see . <br/>
So I am not known for my patience. Dad says I might still learn it as I am young  but I am 11 I won't learn that anymore don't have the time  before you know I am an adult and stuff. <br/><br/>
A strange bitter smell enters my nose and looking in the sugar pan it still looks like sugar. Maybe I should not have used half the bag. <br/>
The popcorn is done I think it stopped popping. How long did you have to wait after that?<br/>
Just a bit longer I think. <br/><br/>
That smell is really persistent. It really comes from the sugar pan. <br/>
Maybe add some water. <br/><br/>
With a pitcher in one hand and a glove and the lid in the other I pour in the water. <br/>
Oh something is happening now. <br/><br/>
Within a blink of an eye there is black sticky stinky stuff everywhere. <br/>
How did I not get burned. <br/>
Calmly I turn of the heat. Grab a note and pen from the fridge. <br/><br/>
"Will clean up tomorrow tried to make popcorn. Oops" <br/><br/>
I just grab a few bags of crisps and such from the pantry then. 
Who cooks for movie night anyway.
