Dan's pov

I took the walk (and bus ride) if shame back to my house after the principal administered two detentions to me and Mark (I had learned).

Mum was going to furious.

I saw her car in the driveway and whispered oh shit under my breath. Why was she home? She might have gotten sick or something. Well the way my day was going she might as well be sick, or let off work early. Either way I was fucked.

I opened the door slowly, the house was silent. Silent. No tv on or radio. Just silence. I hated silence.

I walked into the hallway and I heard a faint sobbing from my parents room

"Mum?" I said.

"D-Daniel?!?" My mother said. You could tell she was crying, my stomach dropped. I was scared to see her cry. She had always been the person to never cry, to help me when I cried, but she never cried. Never.

I opened her door slowly, she was sitting on her bed, tears staining her cheeks, and tissues scattered all about her duvet.

"D-Dan what are you d-doing home so soon?" She said through tears.

"That's not important. Why are you crying?" I asked, totally tossing my problems aside.

"Your grandfather he... he d-died last night in his sleep." She said and then broke down again crying into my shoulder. I couldn't believe that he was dead. Actually dead.

I pulled her into a tight hug as tears ran down my face as well. After a few minutes my phone rang. It was Phil.

"Pick up." Mum said pulling my arm off from around her. "Alright."

I got up and picked up his call, "Hey P-phil."

Phil's pov

"Hay Dan." I said, happy that he picked up because i thought his mum would have bit his head off the moment he said 'suspended'.

"What's up P-phil?" His voice was weak and wary, it was clear he had been crying. "Dan are you okay, you sound as you've been crying, you didn't get punished that hard, did you?" I heard him laugh softly and then say, "Phil I'm fine, just the phone working up."

I'm still didn't believe him.

"Are you sure?" "Yes Phil, I'm sure I'm sure."

"Lies!!" I almost shouted ,then realising that I was in public.

"Whatever Phil."

That boy was going to be the death of me.
