The Darkest of Nights

A brighter night

(Hello my little muffins here I am with another part I will be trying to post more and thank you all for waiting so patiently! Also I know it's called 'A brighter night' but uhm there's a bit of angst here haha-)

~' Pump's POV '~

     I stood up and left my house, no one was home and I planned on going to Skid's house today. It was early morning and I packed the clothes I had, which were hand-me-downs from my brother. I couldn't handle here anymore I had to leave. I rushed downstairs and headed into the kitchen, slowing down as my parents were asleep on the couch. I ushered myself out the door with my cat, I scooped her up, grabbed her cat food, which sounded louder than normal and stuffed it in my backpack. I carried my cat outside and rushed to Skid's house. I knocked on his door and someone answered, I didn't recognize him one bit but he resembled Skid I assumed him to be Skids dad and said hello.

    "Fuck off, I hate strangers," and with that he slammed the door shut. I sighed and went back to the park, set my cat down on the hill, and filled a small bowl with her food. There was a pond nearby and it was very clean, she could drink that. I looked at my cat she seemed pretty content with her life at the moment she was a good cat I loved her so much. I heard someone running behind me and started going into a panic mode then I felt warm familiar arms wrap around me, Skid. Skid held onto me for dear life.

~' Skid's POV '~

     I hugged Pump tightly he was my best friend and my brother was being a meanie he was never home considering he was in prison. I hugged Pump so tightly he had to pry my arms off of him. Pump was my best friend I would have told him where I went the other night but it was a strange subject to talk about. It's weird I trust Pump with my life yet I can't tell him I simply visited my brother in prison. I looked at the cat next to him, "I'm sorry my brother did that," I looked into Pump's eyes to show him how sorry I was. Pump nodded to say it was ok and I felt him lean on me I smiled and wrapped my arms around him. Pump is such a good friend, he's the best friend yes, yes, an amazing friend I just want to be his friend for all of eternity. I kept close to Pump and stayed as still as I could he fell asleep no surprise there.

      The cat walked over to me I used to own a cat I had to get rid of her because of my dad. She died when we made her an outside cat so my dad didn't die. Mimi was her name she was a good cat Jackie brought her home one day a friend gave him her. I petted the cat her fur was soft, and fluffy, quite smooth as well.
