Everyone dreams to escape from the life that they have. Skylar and her family do it whenever they can get some sleep. They would dream about being rich, living better lives, having their mom around. What happens when Skylar's mates meet her and chan...
I slowly opened my eyes. I rubbed them with my left hand. I felt someone grab my right hand. I slowly opened my eyes to see Niklaus sitting in the chair that my dad was in. I moved my left hand and it fell to the bed.
Niklaus smiled as he rubbed his thumb on my hand. "Hey, how are you feeling?" he asked. "Weak. I kind of have a tube in my nose so how else would I be feeling?" I asked. He nodded his head. "I guess I ran into that one," he said. I gave him a weak smile.
He let go of my hand and put his hand on the side of my face. I couldn't help but smile as I leaned my head into his hand. He smiled at me. "You better get some more rest, my little mate. Your dad and siblings need you to be healthy." He said.
I hummed as I slowly closed my eyes. He rubbed his thumb gently on my cheek. I smiled as I slowly fell back asleep.
I opened my eyes to see Dad was in the spot that Niklaus was when I fell asleep. I smiled at him. Dad is sitting in the chair, his eyes on his phone. I looked past him and looked at the window. Sunlight is trying to seep into the room. I slowly sat up making dad look over at me.
"Hey, Sky. Are you feeling better?" Dad asked. I nodded my head. "Yeah, I feel better." I said, making him smile. "That's good." He said. I looked around the room. The second I looked at the door, the doctor walked into the room.
"Good morning, Miss. Carter. How are you feeling today?" he asked as he walked up to me. "Good." I said. "That's amazing. So, today. A nurse will take that tube out...and you will get a meal. If you can keep it down, then you will be able to head home." he said. He smiled at me before he walked out of the room.
*Time Skip to a day later*
I slowly opened my eyes as my alarm started to go off. Today is Thursday. I rubbed my eyes before I sat up. I looked around my room before I turned the alarm off. I don't know why I still have the alarm, I ended up finding out that the cafe is going out of business. I threw the sheets off my body and climbed out of bed.
I locked the bedroom door before I walked over to the dresser. I looked at my windows to make sure that the curtains were closed before I started to get ready for the day. I stripped out of my PJs and started to get dressed.

Once I was done getting dressed, I pulled on my shoes. I tied them before I walked over to my desk. I opened up a drawer and grabbed the credit card that I was given by one of my many mates. I looked at it for a little bit before I put it in my pocket. I then grabbed a pair of sunglasses. I made it so they were hanging from the collar of my shirt. I put my hair up before I walked over to the door.
I unlocked the door and pulled it open. I took a breath in only for my lungs to fill with the smell of french toast. I smiled and walked into the kitchen. "Good morning, kiddo." Dad said. "Morning." I said. "So, do you have any plans for today?" dad asked. "Not, sure. I might surprise the twins with some new things. I would get myself so new stuff too, but I don't want to use too much of my mates money." I said.
"Trust me honey. I met your mate that gave me that card to give to you and gave me a card to pay bills and all that with. You don't have to worry about it." Dad said with a big smile on his face. I gave him a weird look. "Are you going to tell me who it is?" I asked.
"Nope, but you will find out." Dad said with a smile on his face. I gave him a weird look. "Fine, I'll go wake up the twins." I said as I walked to the twins room.
I opened the door and turned the lights on. "Turn them off." Grace said. "No, now get up. You both have school." I said as I walked to Grace's bed. I pulled the sheets off her body before I walked over to Luke. I pulled the sheets off his body as well. "No." Luke whinned as he hid his head under his pillow.
I laughed as I pulled the pillow out of his grip. I then started to hit him with the pillow, making him smile and laugh. "F.f..fine, I'm up." Luke said as he sat up, making me stop hitting him. I looked over at Grace with a devilish look on my face.
"No...no...no...no....I'm open." she said as she jumped out of bed. I laughed and threw Luke's pillow so it was back on his bed.
"Now, get ready for school...before I come back here." I said. They both nodded their heads before I walked out of the room, closing the door behind me. I shook my head and walked back to the kitchen. I grabbed four plates, four cups, and four forks. I walked to the dining table and put the done.
Dad walked to the table with a plate that is stacked with french toast. She put the plate on the table. I opened the fridge. I grabbed the tube of butter before I closed the fridge doors. The door to the twin's room opened as I opened a cabinet. I grabbed a bottle of syrup before I closed the cabinet.
I turned and walked out of the kitchen. I walked to the dining table. I opened the tub of butter and put it on the table. I then opened the syrup bottle before I put it on the table. Grace and Luke walked out of their room with their backpacks on. They took them off and threw them onto the couch. They then ran to their normal spots around the table. "So, what would you guys want? I think I might go shopping today." I said as I sat down in my spot. Which is across from Luke.
Our normal spots is Luke and dad on one side, Me and Grace on the other side. We also have extra chairs that are in two corners that are by the table.
"I would like some new notebooks." Luke said. I nodded my head as I grabbed a piece of french toast. I put it on the plate that is in front of me. "I would a new reading book, maybe two." Grace said, making me smile. She got her reading from me.
One thing that I like about Luke and Grace. They both know that we struggle with money. A reason why I'm going to surprise them. I hope my mate that gave me the card will be okay with me buying the two of them phones. Maybe one for myself as well.
"What kind of books would you like?" I asked as I put butter and sryup on my french toast. "Like the normal, Mystery or fanstay." She answered. I nodded my head as I started to eat. "Did you like the author of the first Mystery book that I gave you?" I asked. "Yeah, can you get another one?" I asked. "Yes, please." She said with the biggest smile on her face. I smiled back at her before I kept on eating. More than just the piece of french toast that was on the plate.
