Help! I was housesitting and made a big mistake. What do I do?

There is a mother and her 10 year old daughter who went on vacation to Mexico. They are returning in a couple days. I was hired to housesit for them. All I need to do is go to their house collect their mail every day while they are away.

A few days ago, I stopped over at the house after hockey practice. Curiosity got the better of me. I decided to walk through the house and explore a bit. When I made it to the girl’s room, I was surprised to see that she had her own private bathroom. I walked inside and checked it out. But I realized I needed to pee. I lifted up the toilet seat, and after pulling my sweatpants down, I started peeing. Standing up. When I was finished, I tried flushing the toilet, but it wouldn’t flush! They must’ve turned off the water to the house before leaving. I searched everywhere looking for the switch or tap to turn the water back on, but I couldn’t find it. The only tap I found was labeled “Outside water” and I don’t want to turn that on since the pipes would freeze. This was a few days ago. My pee is still sitting in that toilet, and it is really starting to smell bad. The girl is definitely going to smell it and tell her mom when they return. I’m screwed. I’m not a celebrity - but I am the assistant captain of the university hockey team, and my name is somewhat well known in the community.
