Fully waking up, and knowing that I would have to leave George's room before anyone saw me, was a mess.

It was 6am on a Monday, so Skylar would be awake to leave in thirty minutes for work. I got up slowly, making sure not to wake him, then I walked to my room.

Patches laid by my pillow and jumped up waiting for me to get in bed.

Once I laid down I was relieved. I heard Skylar walk out of her room. She was up early. Some days I would be awake, some days I wouldn't. I put on a hoodie before walking out of my room, patches following.

"Good morning." I said which caught her off guard.

"I thought you were still asleep. Good morning." She mumbled as she opened a ginger ale.

When she drank ginger ale in the morning that meant she had a headache. She would normally drink cherry coke or water.

"I couldn't sleep last night. How did you sleep?"

"I slept okay. I didn't go to sleep till like 3am." She huffed.

"I know I heard banging last night. Are you okay?" I asked her.

Good play Dream.

"I was having a rough night last night. I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize. We all have our moments."

"Yeah mine was just a little worse than others." She mumbled so quietly i almost didn't hear her.

"Sky-"

"I'm having trouble controlling my anger again. I feel like one minute I'll be doing so good, then I'll throw something." She spoke quickly, cutting me off.

Skylar had anger issues, it was known to everyone in this house the moment they moved in. They hadn't been that bad since she started highschool, but now that she's done highschool and in the real world, it makes sense that it's a little more difficult.

"You know it's okay to be angry."

"I know. I just feel like I've been too angry, and I'm frustrated with this guy at work. But i don't want to get into that before i throw a fucking wrench at his head."

I laughed as she rolled her eyes.

"I think you're mainly stressed. I know you feel like you need to prove a point, and with thanksgiving coming up and everyone coming over, you are stressed. I know that, because thats exactly how i feel."

"Yeah I am, I just don't want to say anything about it, because then it will stay longer. I'll be stressed about being fucking stressed! Make it make sense."
She threw her hands up in the air before finishing the pop tart. I didn't even know she was eating.

"It's normal to be stressed, Skylar."

"I know, I just don't want to be."

"Dad, make it stop!" She whined in a funny voice which caused me to laugh.

"You're going to be late. We can go out tonight, just me and you? And talk, after our stream?"

She nodded before putting on her boots and grabbing her keys.

"And if you need anything from me to help with that dickhead at your job, don't hesitate to ask." She laughed and then nodded before walking out of the door.

Once she closed the door I smiled. I then put down patches food before looking for something for me to eat.

Sap was still asleep, you could hear him snore from here. I knew Ranboo was asleep because when he wakes up the first thing he does is turn on Skylar's Led lights and yell "What will Ranboo do today?"
Don't ask, it's a habit he picked up. I started to clean, I don't know why, but I did.
