Drew

Kier and Laurence had been missing for a while now. I smiled maybe Laurence was finally opening up. I wrapped my arms around Shanes waist suddenly feeling uplifted. “Hey Shane guess what” he looked at me “What?” I stood on my tiptoes and whispered in his ear. “I have a massive Barroner for you” I pulled back and looked at his face turning crimson his eyes wide like an owl. “Par-pardon?” he stuttered. I couldn’t help it. I doubled over shaking with laughter.

Barrone

I stood shocked. What had Wooly said? “Par-pardon?” I heard a weird gasping noise and looked down Drew was clutching his stomach in hysterics. I suddenly realised that he was tricking me. I smiled widely before pulling my façade in. “Drew am I really that unattractive” I say in a small voice. He stops laughing and looks up at me. Broken guitar, broken guitar think about a broken guitar. I feel my eyes fill with tears and hear Drew’s sharp intake of breath. “Barrone, please don’t cry, I didn’t mean it like that.” He kissed my cheek and wiped away my tears. He pulled me in for a hug. I sniffled to try and hide my laugh. I leant down and whispered in his ear “I bet my Barroner is bigger than yours” before pulling away and running down the hallway laughing, leaving the little man looking like a statue.

Drew

What the hell just happened? I turn to see Shane disappear into a room. I give chase. Just as I run past the front door Kier enters. I falter to a halt and look at him as he closes the door. I thought he was with Laurence? I shake that thought off and go timid hunting.

Kier

I enter the flat and see Wooly running past before stopping and looking at me curiously before shaking his head and running off again. I don’t think I even want to know. I was even more worried about Laurence. He just sat there. When he opened his eyes he would just stare into the distance as if lost in thought. I sighed and went through to our room. I looked at the clock. 21:30. I flopped down onto the bed putting my face into the pillow. I felt myself drifting off.

Laurence

I walked into the unusually silent flat. I pulled my jacket off and made my way through to the kitchen. It was only just gone ten. I was stood watching the kettle boil and didn’t hear the light footfall behind me. “Hey Bevers, you alright?” I turned to see Shane looking at me hair sticking up in all directions. “Yeah I’m fine, but what’s with your hair?” his hands shot up to pat it all back into place “Drew” was all he said by way of explanation. “Bevers this isn’t about my hair or me, I know when you’re lying we all do and you are. So tell me what’s wrong?” this felt like déjà vu just with a different timid. I sighed before nodding. I finished making my coffee and pointed to the table. We sat down opposite each other. It’s okay Laurence no matter what you will always be our best friend.” I looked up and saw Drew now sat on Shanes lap. I nodded I knew that. I looked down again and stared into the swirling depths of my coffee gathering courage. “I Love Kier” I looked up at them, but a flash of colour made me look past him and now I wished I hadn’t. There in the doorway stood Kier.
