Better with you

Chapter 23

Francis' POV

I'm still awake. I can't sleep even though I did everything that makes me sleep, I even jumped around the room quietly so I won't wake Julia up. I ran out of water so I grabbed the pitcher and drank the last glass of water.

"Babe, why are you awake?" She asked.

"I'll just get some water downstairs." I said.

"Hmm." She said and tried to reach for me while her eyes are still shut.

"I'll go back." I said and kissed her forehead before going downstairs.

Unknown POV

Francis, why can't you hear me? I know all of your thoughts, it's been like this since you came out to the public. Help me.

Francis' POV

Why am I hearing all of these? It's so loud now that I am downstairs. It's like I'm talking to someone who is so near to me.

"Help me." I heard a voice in my mind.

"What?" I said.

"You can hear me?" I heard again.

"What? Yes, what's going on?" I said.

I heard a loud knock on the door that interrupted me from my thoughts.

"Open the door" I heard again.

"Who would be knocking on my door at 2 AM?" I asked myself.

"Help me" I heard again.

Mickey came running to the door and sat on the door which is very weird because he only does that when he already know the person.

"Mickey, let's go." I said but he didn't move.

"Open the door" I heard again.

I have no other choice but to open it because Mickey is there and someone might need help. I slowly opened the door and saw a girl standing in front of me. Maybe a little taller than Julia, she has straight dark brown hair which is a bit messy because of the cold wind.

"I'm sorry, who are you?" I asked to the woman who is looking down on the floor.

"You heard me." She said.

"What?" I asked.

"Francis." She said and looked at me with teary eyes. I already knew who she was, it's like I'm looking on a mirror, she looks just like me.

"Francheska?" I asked.

"My twin." She said and started crying.

"But, you're dead." I said.

"Who told you I'm dead?" She asked.

"Dad." I answered.

"I am not, I'm here in front of you. I'm alive." She said.

"If you really are my twin, prove it to me." I said.

"We had a bone marrow transplant when we were 9, Hailee and Harley are the worst twins ever, we would go to the secret room in your room when we're so mad at them, the secret room is under your study table." She said.

I didn't say anything and started crying as I hugged her tight.

"I missed you so much." She said.

"I missed you too Chess." I said. "Get inside, It's cold out here." I said.

"Thank you." She said.

"How did you get here?" I asked.

"I followed your thoughts." She said.
