He looked ecstatic that I'd come over to talk to him, because he looked pretty fucking lonely before. I could feel my heart throbbing, my emotions overwhelming me.
"I'm good thanks, been ages since I've spoken to you properly man," he grinned. "What you getting up to these days fam?"
"Just the usual," I said vaguely. I didn't want to prolong the conversation with him, because it would mean that the guilt would eat me up, and I would back out of killing him... And then be in for a shit-storm with Steve. "Do you fancy coming upstairs away from the music where we can talk and catch up properly bro? It's bare cold outside as well."

"So..." said Thomas, breaking the silence. "How's your stepdad?" A smirk fell on his lips.
"Which stepdad?" I asked nervously. I immediately felt fucking stupid... because I only had one step-dad. But I wasn't even thinking before speaking anymore. I was just so damn nervous.
