Chapter 9

I know the last chapter was short, but I'll make this on longer, let's get started shall we?

My heart beat so hard I thought it was going to rip out of my chest, it was a mans voice, one I didn't know. It was dark and I couldn't see anything, but there was a light glow from behind the boy, a candle, I slowly turned around more so I was facing him, he had dark brown hair, and brown eyes. He reached forward, and behind me. he flicked on a switch which lite up the room in a matter if seconds.
I looked at him again and saw that it was James, I didn't recognise the voice because he hadn't spoken to me last night, but I recognised his face. "Don't do that!" I whisper-yelled at him, he looked at me questionably, "Well, you know how I had to sleep in the shower with Beau? Well yeah, I woke up and Beau and I were talking then Skip came in and started to attack me with silly string, so I ran downstairs away from them. Everyone was in the kitchen and without talking they told me to come down here to hide, so I did. That's it," I finished my story lamely then asked him, "Wait, what are you doing down here?" He rolled his eyes and was about to speak when we heard footsteps, coming down the stairs, silently he pointed to what looked like a walk in wardrobe. I walked over and into it, I had just closed it when they reached to bottom of the stairs.
"Hey, James," I opened the door a little bit so I could see a little without Beau and James seeing me, Beau's eyes wandered around the room, stopping on the little room I was in a couple of times. James waved back in response to Beau, they started to talk and I got bored, so I wandered around the room I was in, because I didn't have my phone and I couldn't turn the lights on I was walking around blindly. I heard the door start to open, light flooded in and James stood there, he motioned for me to come our with his hand. I silently followed him out and up the stairs, he opened the door and walked out, he grabbed my hand when he saw that no one was there, still waking silently we walked into the lounge room where everyone was eating. Thankfully Beau and Skip's backs were towards me, James walked around and sat with everyone, I walked behind Beau and Skip as they were sitting next to each other eating pancakes that everyone was cooking earlier, I quickly and quietly grabbed the biggest pancake off both their plates and put that's in my mouth.
They were both looking away from me so they didn't notice for a while, they both reached for another pancake and when they didn't get it, they turned and saw me. I smiled with a mouth full of pancake, they both looked at me like I was an alien.
I walked around the couch and sat on Sass's lap and finished eating the pancakes in my mouth. They looked at each other, then at me again, but they didn't get up, I shrugged but didn't say anything to them. "So, how is everyone?" I asked with a smile, they all nodded and said a choruses of "Good." Saskia motioned me from across the room, pointing to me, then our house, then her phone and then her wrist. My house, phone, time.
I checked the time and saw that it was almost 10, my eyes widened, I ran upstairs, grabbed my stuff and ran out of the house with a hasty "Goodbye."

I wish I hadn't slept in, and on this day!
