Before the Storm

🔱ch.3.5🔱

Thursday, September 7th
5 days before school started
12:58 P.M

The warm sun fell on my face, as I moved around trying to block the sun. The bed sheets ruffled as I moved making a little bit of noise.

"Stop moving" The raspy and sleepy voice caught me off guard, but as I gained more self-awareness, I realized many things...

First, I had a pounding headache

Second, there were 3 pizza boxes on the floor accompanied by an empty Coke-Cola Zero bottle.

And Third...

Everett was right next to me, sleeping, God gives out his miracles and his wrath and I couldn't tell which was which.

...

My face was red, as my mind was going at a million miles per second. We both had our backs turned so we weren't face to face, but I still felt his breath, well I heard it, he was dead asleep... How could he be asleep at a time like this?

But I couldn't care less my head was going to be the death of me...

I got off my bed and made my way to the bathroom. I turned on the faucet, just to wake myself up. I opened the cabinet to find some ibuprofen, I grabbed the bottle, empty...

How great...

I went downstairs where my mother was leaving for work and Miles was in the kitchen like always. I waved goodbye to my mom, as I entered the the kitchen.

"What did you do last night? You came home at like 4?" Miles looked at me as I grabbed the bottle of medicine and water.

"I don't even remember.." My voice was raspy as I took two pills, to help with the headache.

"That bad, huh, who got you home?" He tilted his head.

"Don't start Miles" I rolled my eyes as I walked back up to my room.

"Come on katt" He whined like a little baby. He always wanted to know things that he shouldn't be knowing..

"Why do you want to know?"

"Why not?"

"It was Evan, now leave me alone"

"Everett... then how did he get home, Kat? Your car is in the driveway.."

....

"Holy shit there is no way he is in your room," He laughed hard

"Fuck Dad is gonna kill you" he was holding his stomach from laughing.

"Fuck off" I flipped him off

I went to my room almost slamming the door

"Evan it's almost 1, I think it's time to wake up?"

"Mm, 5 more minutes" he mumbled his face buried in the pillow...

"You have to get up my dad's home.." I ripped off the blanket off his body...
He slowly got up and I passed him the medicine and a bottle of water.
