Stolen Cupcakes
I was probably 10 or so and at a friend’s house with a few kids for a birthday party and sleepover. We were going to eat some burgers then eat cake and play NES games. We all ate burgers and chips in the living room while watching a movie and were having a good time.
I went into the kitchen to get some more soda and when I opened the fridge, I saw that it wasn’t cake, but CUP cakes. I have no idea what came over me, but I grabbed the tray of cupcakes, opened it, and just stood there eating them. I had to of eaten like 20 of them I swear.
Realizing what I had done, and also realizing that they were probably wondering where I was, I took the empty tray and just left with it. I got on my bike and went home. As soon as I got home, I threw up, probably because I’d just eaten like 10,000 calories of chocolate and pure sugar.
My mom asked me why I was home and I just said, “I didn’t feel good.” My friend never mentioned it and we didn’t speak of it for the remaining 10+ years we stayed in contact.
I have since resolved that if I ever see him again the first thing I’m going to say is “Jake, I ate the cupcakes.” Story credit: Reddit / OneHundredCheeseburg
