About those arachnids

I was stumbling around in my parents' bathroom, looking for my toothbrush - not an easy task when there are six+ other people in the house. I finally found it and globbed some toothpaste on, doused it with water and brought it to my mouth.
Which was when I realized the toothpaste was actually a spider web bundle and there was a small (but it looked huge) spider crawling around on the bristles. I threw the toothbrush into the sink basin, but it was too late: a big spider web enveloped my head. My eyes and nose and mouth were free, but it still felt like I was suffocating.
More and more spiders appeared, as if out of thin air. They hung from the ceiling, they dangled off the medicine cabinet. Thankfully, they didn't pull the cliche "climb out of the drain" thing. Didn't matter. I screamed anyway.
"What's wrong with you?" my brother T said, appearing at the doorway.
"They're everywhere! Don't you see?"
"They're just spiders, you pansy. Get over it." T steered me out of the bathroom and shut the door in my face.
