Out Of Touch. - a Caspar Lee Fan Fiction - discontinued UFN

Chapter 37

*Charlie's P.O.V.*

The sound of cutlery clattering on the paltes is the only thing to be heard in the house. This is good food. It's roast chicken with baked potatoes, veges and Zoe's mum's gravy recipe. It tastes so good! I remember having this when I was younger and living with them.

Caspar still hardly knows what happened when I was little. He only knows about my baby brother, Sean.

"I need to go to the bathroom." I excuse myself from the table and walk upstairs with my phone in hand.
I need to call Caspar.
I also need to use the bathroom.
I walk to my room and turn the handle, walking into it to push it open.

Ow.

It won't budge.

"Zo! Do you know why my door is locked?!" I yell downstairs.
"Is it? Why though?" Zoe asks cluelessly.
"I don't know! All my shit is in there!" I say.
"We'll figure it out later. Use the main bathroom." Zoe tells me.

Ugh.

I walk to the bathroom, put my phone on the side of the basin and do my business.
I then flush the toilet and walk forward to wash my hands. Naturally, I check myself in the mirror to make sure I don't look dead, even though I'm only home with Zoe and Kayla.
When my hands are dry, I pick up my phone and press Caspar's name to call him.
Oh, what a surprise. Straight to voicemail. Whatever.
I lean my bum on the basin, facing the back wall.
"Hey, its Caspar. I can't talk right now but leave a message and I'll try and get back to you. Thanks, bye!" *BEEP*

"Oh. Hey Caspy. I just really need to talk to you.... So please answer. It's important, and pretty personal. I love you and I miss you. Bye." And then I hang up.

I really want him back now. I don't care what they're doing. I need him back.

I look around the room, thinking that it might - in some way - calm me, and I see the toilet. Its bubbling.

"ZOE!" I yell out, anger evident in my voice.
I hear what sounds like stampedes of footsteps running up the stairs and the door bursts open. Kayla and Zoe stand there expecting me to say something.

"Well? What?!" Zoe asks, after a few seconds of waiting around.

"Um?! Look!" I say, swinging up my arm to point to the toilet.

"Well? I don't know! What do you expect me to do?" Zoe asks.

"Help it? I don't know what's happening. I can't handle this.." I utter and with that, I barge through the middle of both of them and run to my room.
I try and open the door and smack into it, again.
Its locked. Forgot about that.
"What the hell am I meant to do?! You've stolen my old room!" I yell, pointing to Kayla. I'm feeling so angry right now, I could burst. "Someone locked my room! What am I meant to do? We don't have a spare room. We have a stupid couch..." I say, out of breath.
I go to the linen cupboard and grab some blankets, a doona and a few pillows and make myself a bed on the couch.
"Nobody is allowed on this couch but me!" I yell upstairs.
I hear them both groan at how I'm acting but I don't care.

Caspar, please. I need you. I'm breaking here. Why is our room locked. I can't live here without you. Come back. Please. I love you.

I frantically type out the text and send it to his phone. I hope he will reply. I need our room back. I need him back.
To think, 10 minutes ago this didn't effect me at all. Now it feels like my whole world is crashing down around me.
I didn't realise but my cheeks are now soaked with tears.
I quickly dry my face with the blankets and try to make myself look normal by blinking and patting my face. I don't even know what help this would do but I do it anyway.

I hear footsteps coming down the stairs.
"What is going on Charl?" Zoe asks. Kayla isn't with her.
"My boyfriend is gone. My cousin is gone. My other cousins boyfriend is gone. What is happening?" I say.
"I'm sure its nothing bad. There was detergent or something in the toilet. Do you think if something bad happened, someone would prank us?" Zoe asks.

I take a minute to think.
"Hmmm. I don't know." I quietly say.
"Well I don't think they would." Zoe says with a slight laugh.
"Where's Kayla?" I ask.

"She's standing up stairs. Awkwardly. She doesn't know what to do here Charlie. She feels so lost."

I sigh.
"Well I don't know what to do or say! There's something that she isn't telling me. I don't know her anymore.... I never have..." I trail off.
"I could try and talk to her. Sometimes people feel more open with people that don't know much about them." Zoe suggests.
"You can try, but she's never told me anything. I've never found out anything about her." I tell Zoe.
"I'll see."

Wellllllllllllllllllllll I'm still sick. what the actual hell.
I really feel like fish and chips and legit cried on my couch for over an hour yesterday after school because it was all that I wanted to eat. And then I slept for like 4 hours on the couch and then woke up and went to bed. :') But I almost passed out so I had to have some toast. :') day in the life of me.

I think some cat is dying outside or something......

So you're lucky I get a whole day off school. Means I can write this. :') and listen to Hilltop Hoods and Thundamentals. If you don't know them, then I'm judging you. :)
Check them outtttt. They are lifeeeee. Okayssss. This is a bit of a long a/n, hey.
Sorry. :') and a lot of multiple letters at the ends of words hahaha sorry. I'm really tired and I get angry as soon as people talk to me. So as long as I talk to people and they don't talk to me, I'm fine. I still would love votes/comments/follows!!! ❤❤❤❤ I'm so appreciative of you all! :) xxxx
