Kate and Emily closed the curtains to the bedroom before switching on the tv. Kate was younger than Emily, which meant Emily was mostly in charge. Kate was 10 and Emily was 15, but they shared their bedroom and had a close relationship.

"Like always remember to keep quiet so you don't wake up mom and dad. You know what they said last time." Emily said.

"Yeah I remember" Kate answered. "Don't turn the tv on or your grounded"

After about 50 minutes Emily decided they should sleep and shut the tv off. Emily looked at the clock and saw it said 10:50. She sat up in her bed thinking.

"Umm... Emily?" Kate asked. "Can you get me some water?"

"Yeah." Emily answered. She would of told Kate to get it herself, but last time she did that Kate got scared of the darkness and started hallucinating and talking about how she saw dark figures moving around. Ever since she has been scared of the dark and would ask Emily to get her stuff instead.

"One day she'll get over it. But not anytime soon." Emily whispered to herself.

Walking back to the room, Emily noticed that Kate was now sitting up and looked frightened.

"What's wrong?" Emily asked as she handed Kate her water.

"I thought it was mom coming in the room" she replied taking a sip of water.

Emily nodded and looked at her phone. She noticed the screen was on and grabbed it.

"You got a text from Drew." Kate said.

"Did you read it?" Emily asked.

"No I have my own phone." Kate answered. "I wouldn't do that."

Emily grinned and read the text.

"Hey babe" it read.

Emily wanted to reply but it was late and knowing Drew he would start a whole conversation. Turning the phone off she climbed into her bed and stared at the wall.

"Night sis" Emily said.

"Night" Kate replied smiling.
