Spirits Hidden

Chapter 5- What's this

///Eric///

I woke up to see I was still in Kyran's room and sleeping in his bed. I sat up and looked to my left to see Kyran's still sleeping.

We had fallen asleep facing away from each other. After our dinner we all went to bed, we all had a fun time talking. Collin really doesn't talk, Ella likes anything that fits cottage core. She makes her own Green Hibisus Tea, Kyran helps her make it sometimes. We kinda got on the topic about our pasts and our parents but that got quickly got shutdown by Kyran. I wonder why, but I'll let him tell me when he's ready.

I looked at my phone to check the time: 9:31am. I heard a yawn and shuffling beside me. I looked at Kyran who was now on his stomach facing me awake and ACK- WHEN DID HE TAKE OFF HIS SHIRT!!! I'M TOTALLY TURNING RED RIGHT NOW!!! I quickly averted my eyes away from his chest to his purple eyes.

"What time is it? " He asked still tired from just waking up.

"9-9:31, do you sleep in? " I responded.

"No, only sometimes. " He answered. Heh relatable. He stood up and stretched walking to the door, not opening it but only grabbing the knob. "I'm going to check what's for breakfast," he started. "You can search through my clothes if you wanna get dressed. " I nodded and he smiled as he opened the door leaving the room. I looked out the sliding doors, that led to his tiny balcony, to see a regular morning, illuminating the room. I got up walking to his closet and began searching.

After a minute, I found a regular black hoodie. Most of Kyran's clothes were black, so my style couldn't stay for long. I took off my white buttoned up shirt, my brown plaid coat was already off lying on the bed. I slipped on the hoodie, it surprisingly fit very well on me. I put my hands in the pockets and felt something shar-Ow!

I pulled out the object to see what poked my finger. It was a vial filled with a tealish liquid inside that started to glow, my eyes widened at the sight. It's top had a sharp point and was bumpy with skulls. As it glowed it quickly formed a loop string around my neck. I looked a my finger to see no blood, I began feeling lighter. I know I'm sensitive but I'm not this sensitive. Kyran walked in on my thoughts.

"We got pancakes and waffles..whats wrong? " He asked. I was staring at the vial as I turned to face him.

"W-what's this? " I questioned. Kyran's face went paler than it already naturally was, when he looked down at it. He ran up to me grabbing it out of my hand.

"What did you do!? Ugh I knew I should've taken it out!" He ramble looking at it. He looked more worried than angry.

"I'm s-sorry, I felt it and-and I p-poked my finger on it, what even is it?" I questioned. Kyran let go of it and sat down on the bed holding his head up by his hands. I sat down next to him.

"It's something very important that the others don't know I have." He sounded like a kid on the verge of a breakdown as they try to explain themselves." Its called the Souls of Life, it alows it's owner to live for how many souls are in it." He explained.

"Is there a way to undo it?" I requested. He shook his head, I hugged him. Right now he needs it, Kyran looked up at me. I stopped realizing it was a little awkward. "Look I don't mind it, that means I can stay longer with you guys." I tried to comfort him still. He put on a smile and looked at the ground.

"Yeah, but are you sure you want to stay that long?" He asked looking back up at me.

"Of course, why wouldn't I?" I confirmed, right then Nydia walked in.

"Come on, breakfast is rea-" She stopped looking at the Souls of Life. Well there's no hiding it now. "Kyran, why does he have that?" She questioned, growing a pissed face.

"Look, I was able to retreive it, I left it in the pocket, and he so happened to pick the hoodie that had it." Kyran sighed. He's going to get yelled at later. Kyran stood up taking my hand, leading me out of the room. "Anyways, let's g-" Nydia wasn't the only one standing there. Everyone else came too and heard, I assumed.

"What the hell, Kyran, why didn't you tell us!" she snapped. Maybe now not later, woops.

"We'll talk later." Kyran pushed past everyone brining me along.
