The sun hit different this morning, but the sun definitely looked deceiving. Apparently the temperatures outside have dropped completely, anyone would think winter has come ever so early. I sigh and feel the headache emerge under the surface of my skin.

I roll my eyes knowing that I have to get up, there's no choice about that. Plus I promised I'd take Elijah and Olivia to see their mother.

I sit up slightly and then decide to get up fully– allowing the coldness of the floor boards to send chemical signals to my brain as a warning that it's so cold. I slip on my fluffy socks and make my way down stairs with my headache. I hold the banister for support and make my way to the kitchen.

The mansion is silent and peaceful, no one else is awake surprisingly. I walk to the fridge and pull out a cold bottle of water, the colouration of the bottle has changed as the temperature is so overwhelming. I searched for some tablets but couldn't find any, that only frustrated me more. I curse under my breath as I search harder to attempt to get rid of the headache.

"Looking for this?" I turn and find Elijah holding a small box full of medicines of all kind.

"Thank you." I say and take the box out of his hand, unclipping the lid so I'm presented with different tablets, but none are what I'm looking for.

"Fuck." I mutter again and suddenly feel the frustration creeping upon my face again. I'm yearning to get better and get rid of my un-convenient headache.

"What's wrong?" Elijah asks sweetly, not understanding my frustration one bit.

"We don't have what I need." I sigh in defeat and suddenly give up looking, I clip the lid back on and put the medicine box back in the cupboard where I should've looked in the first place.

"I'll go up to the shops." I look at Elijah and suddenly feel shocked, I'm not sure why as he's always been so caring towards his sister.

"That would be great, thank you." I release a small smile and gain one back in return, I open up my bottle of water and bring it close to my lips, allowing the water to flow along my tongue and down my throat, leaving me feeling satisfied. I turn to look at Elijah who has taken a banana from the wooden bowl on the side of the counter. I watch as his muscular back is suddenly tensing.

As if he was reading my mind he replies, "Finish looking?" He turns to me and stares down at me from his tall height.

I sigh and try not to make eye-contact with him, but it's impossible. His brown eyes are still full of so much mystery. I don't know what he's thinking, nor do I want to know... Do I?
