i woke up in the afternoon, i sat up striate hoping it was all just a bad dream. But it wasn't I was hit with the realization that she wouldn't be coming back.. I sighed and got out of bed I was still in uniform so I just walked out of my room not bothering to clean up a bit.

I went to the brake room in hopes nobody would be there.. but there was people. I sighed to myself and stood there watching them. I spaced out, I don't know for how long. I snapped back into reality. I slowly walk in, my hair was a mess. I didn't care at the moment. I sat on the couch I couldn't really tell who was in the room with me. All I saw were figures walking by some trying to talk to me but there voice muffled. I signed and tried to get up but I couldn't, I didn't know why.

My lap felt heavy and I looked down to see a dog. It was a German Shepherd. I blink a few times.. when did we get a dog? I look at the collar around the neck  'Riley' was engraved on the small pice of metal that hung from the collar. I slowly pet the dog. "..hey girl, what are you doing here?..." I spoke softly. "..your so soft... Sophia would have loved you..." a few tears ran down my face and she did what dogs do and licked my face till they got a reaction. Mine was soft chuckling. She calmed down once she had seen a small smile on my face. I looked at her for a moment. " your my friend now.." I gave the dog a smile and she barked in response.

"I see you've met Riley" Riley jumped off the couch and ran over to ghost. I nodded my head. "..when did we get a dog?" He looked at me for a moment and paused for a minute. "We've had her she's just been away a while. She's only staying the week though." He looked at me and back at the dog. "She's here to help you. Someone suggested it.." He made his way over to the couch and sat down. "How are you feeling?" I chuckled a tear ran down my face. "... im good.. as one can only be when they lost the last pice of family they had.. ever..." I looked down at Riley her tale was going from left to right.

Ghost was quiet for a while and so was I. "..in sorry..." my eyes widened a bit. Did he apologize?  I looked at him, and spoke barely above a whisper. "..why?..."

He sighed and walked away, leaving me confused for what seemed like hours. Witch in reality was only 5 minutes. Riley barked witch snaped me out of my trance. I looked at the time it was 5:15. Dinner time.. had the dog eaten yet? I sighed and looked at Riley but found she was no where to be seen. I blinked a few times and saw that she was being fed by soap. He saw I was looking at them and smiled.

"Have ya eaten yet?" I shook my head "no.. not yet" my voice was flat and he nodded his head and grabbed something out of the cabinet, it looked like a pice of paper. " what are ya in the mood for? We got Chinese, pizza, bk. What do ya want?" I blinked a few times. "Um. Pizza sounds good I guess... im not really hun-" he cut me off " that's bullshit and ya know it.. what kind of pizza do ya want?" He looked at me. "U-um I guess what you guys got last time..." He nodded his head and dialed the number to the place.

"Ah, good to see you up and walking. How are ya?" I turned around and saw pirce and gaz walk in with Riley. "O-oh um. I'm ok right n-now... Soap is ordering pizza." I don't know why I was stuttering, I wasn't a moment ago.

Price smiled and nodded. He then sat down on the couch. It was quite.. I needed a shower so I made my way out of the room. "Oi! Where do ya think your Goin?" I turned around. "I-im gonna go take a shower.. I feel gross.. I'll be out in 10 minutes tops" I gave a small smile best I could. "Ok, well don't be to long, were going ta be watching a movie soon."

I nodded my head and went to my room. Making sure it was mine.. it was. I grabbed some pj's and took a quick shower. I put my clothes on and started to walk to the brake room I passed ghost's door on the way but stopped.. maybe he'd want to join the group with the pizza and movie.. I did the inside of my cheek and knocked on his door.
