The Young Loved

Sleepover

  On the next day, I just understood that my yelling on Peter could be a mistake. Yet, I got a call from Danya, he invited me to the sleepover, saying that Gabriel is coming over as well. I said that I will come as well. 

  Winter times aren't really that bad as it might look. This light cold wind going to your body through clothes, gives pretty good feeilngs made out from pleasure to that point when you want to sleep. From warm home to the cold outside.

  As I reached Danya's house, I looked around for a bit. Nothing that would stand off wasn't around me. Simple two floored house with a flat roof and a huge garden full of flowers and couple trees. Danya opened the door, i think he saw me from the window. 

-Get in already! It's so freezing!

-Coming, coming! Heh.

  I chuckled and finally went inside. A huge hallway that was connected to all the rooms from the first floor. It had kitchen, storage room, laundry room, staircase to the second floor, dining room, garage and two office rooms that was owned by Danya's parents. Second floor was just 3 bedrooms, guest room and 2 bathrooms. 

We went to Danya's room. It was full of different shelves full of books, little figures of anime characters, computer that was standing on a little working table. I saw same students books there, which is expected since we are classmates. 

  After some time Gabriel got to us as well. We spended time playing random games on computer, eating some stuff and ended up to night time like that. Everyone looked tired except for me.

  Garbiel yawned.

-I actually want to sleep now... I feel too tired to not sleep, even knowing that the sleepover means no sleep.

-Same here, can't stand...

  Danya agreed with Gabriel, they both jumped on different beds getting ready to sleep.

-You guys can sleep, I will stay awake a little longer if you don't mind.

-If you say so Yar, but still, good night.

-Night!

  I went downstairs and went to the guest room. It only had just 2 beds, a table and minifridge. A huge window that was faced into garden was covered in snow. But I noticed that there was a figure behind that snow. I couldn't see who was there exactly. But that creeped me out a lot. My friends were asleep now, so it was useless to call anyone from here. Plus I don't know what would have happen if i'd get out from the room. I tried to open the window, but when I did, noone was there anymore.

-Maybe I'm just hallucinated...?

  I went to bed and layed down on it. I still couldn't fall asleep. Suddenly I heard Gabriel screaming. I went upstairs as fast as I could and I saw an awful scene I wouldn't ever forget. 

  Danya was laying on his bed all bloody. He was dead, stabbed in chest a lot of times. I could see his scared face looking on the roof. Gabriel was laying the same way on the floor, but tied up and with shutted mouth with tape. My friends are dead... Only people I have talked to since childhood. Only people I have kept friendship with for so long are now gone with no returning back. And now I see them both like that. I almost threw up but I started to cry quitly. I didn't know what to do. I were even too scared to at least pick up the phone and call the police. I just stood there, crying. 

  I didn't pick up anything from my stuff and just ran outside in only one shirt and short pants on own self. It was freezing cold, but I didn't care. All I wished for is just to find someone who would help, no matter what. I was running on the way home but I accidently bumped into stranger.

-Wow wow, ma'am are you okay? Why are you crying?

  I couldn't say a word for a moment, but I got my mind clearer a bit and finnaly talked.

-P-please help me! Someone killed my friends...I-I don't know what happened, what to do...

-Jesus chirst.. Can you show where did you run from?

-Y-yes, follow me...

  I leaded the man to the house and leaded him to the room where Danya and Gabriel got murdered in.

-Oh god...

  The man got his phone and called the police. After 20 minutes of waiting, police got here. I still couldn't think straight at all. Just the fact that my friends are now dead traumatized me so much. Police tried to ask me some questions but I just couldn't respond on any of them. They placed blanket on my shoulders just to keep me warm and left me alone. They understood that I'm unavailable to do anything right now. 

  In next hour same policemen drived me back home. I didn't even thank them or anything, I just went back inside the house and sat down on the bed. I were speachless. Brother still wasn't home. I layed down on bed and tried to fall asleep again but I couldn't. I stayed awake till next morning with this scene flashing in my eyes over and over again.
