Dylan O'Brien's little sister

Chapter 10 (Part 3)

"I hate you!" I yell from the top of my lungs and start crying my eyes out. After around 10 minutes I decide to get out of the house and have some time alone in the nature but I don't want Dylan to see me going out so I decide to climb down the tree that is next to my window. I pick a backpack with my E-book, my phone, my headphones and a jacket. After that I silently open the window and climb down the tree. I get out of the backyard and start running down the street.

After around 30 minutes running I start feeling so tired so I stop in a park and sit under a huge tree. I put my headphones and start listening to "Summertime" by The Mowgli's. I end up falling asleep. After a while I feel something humid falling on my nose so I wake up. I find that it has started raining so I decide to go back home. I check out my phone and I see that I've been gone for 2 hours and that Dylan has called me 4 times. It's getting dark and cold so I try to go back home when I find out that I don't know where I am.

"Ok, Sherlyn. Don't panic" I say to myself and put on my jacket. I open my phone and when I'm about to call Dylan I hear a car parking right in front of me. The window opens and I see Kaya with her eyes wide open.

"Sherlyn? Is that you?" She says and I nood. "What are you doing here? Come in! You're soaking wet!" And with that I sit in the front seat next to her.

"Thanks for stopping and picking me up" I say drying my face with the sleeve.

"No need to thank, but, what are you doing here so late? This place is dangerous at night" She asks as she drives to her house. 

"Well, it's a long story" I say looking down.

"Then lets get to my house first and you'll tell me after you have a shower." She says and I nood. After around 10 minutes she parks into her driveway and we get inside the house. Kaya's and Dylan's house are so look alike but Kaya's walls are painted in a soft purple colour. "Lets go to my room and I'll give you some clothes so you can get changed" She says and we do so. After she gives me a big T-shirt and some sweatpants I get in the shower. After 15 minutes I finish getting ready and I go sit next to Kaya on the couch. "Oh, hey Sherlyn. Didn't see you coming" She says smiling.

"Yeah, I didn't want to be noisy" I say and she cuckles.

"It's alright. Anyways, what happened to you to be so far from your house this late?" She says raising an eyebrow.

"Well, I ran away" I say and her eyes grow wide open.

"What? Why?"

"Dylan and me had a fight before and I just wanted to be alone for a while" I say looking down.

"Sherlyn, you know that running away wasn't a good idea. Dylan is your big brother and you know that you can talk to him whenever you need" She says and I nood.

"It was just" I start to say and my eyes get full of tears. "I disobeyed him and he yelled at me so I got so mad and I said that I hated him. He is not supposed to yell at me, I thought he was so cool but he is like mum and dad. They're always mad at me" I say and tears begin falling down my face.

"Hey, Sherlyn. Don't cry." She says cleaning my tears with ther thumb. "I know how you feel. When I was younger I was a trouble maker too and I made mistakes but that doesn't mean that it can't be arranged."

"I-I know. But... when Dylan finds me he's going to be so pissed" I say making her chuckle. 

"He'll be pissed but not because of you disobeying but because he's worried."

"Do you think he's worried?" I ask looking at her. She noods smiling and gets her phone.

"I'm sure he is. I'm going to call him and tell him that you're here." She says and I nood. "Hey, Dylan? I'm Kaya. Yeah, don't worry, she's with me. Sure, see you later" I hear her and she closes her phone. After that she comes again and sits on the couch.

"Did he seem so mad?" I ask and she laughs.

"He sounded a mix of worried and mad. He told me he'd be here in 10" She says and I nood. "While he comes lets have something to eat"

"Yes, please I'm starving" I say and she starts warming some veggies with chicken.

After we ate all the dinner we put the plates on the sink and I hear the doorbell ringing. I look at Kaya who smiles at me and opens the door. I go take a look and I see Dylan with red puffy eyes.

"D-Dylan?" I whisper making him look at me. "Why are your eyes red?" I ask and before I could say anything else he slaps me on my left cheek and pulls me into a hug. My eyes grow wide open and I put my hand on my face while he hugs me. After a few seconds he pulls me out of the hug and grabs me by my upper arms.

"What were you thinking by going out this late by yourself?" He asks trying to stay calm. I have started crying because of the slap aready. It wasn't too hard but it hurt anyways.

"I-I wanted to be by myself for a while and I-I ran away" I say looking down and sobbing. "I'm sorry, Dylan."

"You had me so worried, Sherlyn. I even called the cops and mum and dad. Please don't do this ever again, did you listen?" He says and I nood looking into his eyes.

"Di-did I make you cry?" I ask and he pulls me into another hug.

"Yes, you did. I was so worried about you. I don't know what I'd do if something bad happened to you. This place is very dangerous at night" He says rubbing my back.

"I'm sorry, I won't do it again" I say and he looks me in the eyes again.

"I hope I can trust you" He says and start sobbing harder "Tomorrow you're going to be grounded. You're going to stay in your room and think about what have you done, am I understood?"

"Y-yeah" I say crying harder and he picks me up. 

"Kaya, thanks a lot for picking her up from the park. I don't know how I can thank you" Dylan says looking at her and she smiles sweetly.

"It's alright. I'd do anything for my friends" She says. "It's late now, I think you should go home and have a good rest guys"

"Y-yeah, we are about to do it. It was a hard day" He says and after saying good bye to Kaya, Dylan places me in the car and we go back home. 

The car ride was silent and I almost fall asleep but we arrive home before that happens. 

"Dylan?" I say when we get inside the house. He turns around and faces me.

"Yeah?" He asks raising an eyebrow.

"I wanted to say that I don't hate you" I say and he chuckles. He bends until he is on my height.

"Sherlyn, I know that you don't hate me. Don't be sorry about that" He says patting my hair. "Come on, lets go to bed. We can have a talk tomorrow" He says sweetly and we both go to our rooms.

I put Kaya's clothes on my chair and I wear my pijama. After that I lie on my bed and fall in a deep sleep.
