"Uhhh..."

I dropped my bottle of water.

"I just dropped some trash."

I picked it up, grabbing Sarah's arm with my free hand and running out of their room, straight to ours.

"Oh.

My.

Gosh!"

I said to myself, sliding down to the bottom of the door.

I went to my bed, planking there; face down.

"You know, Josh is going to find out."

Sarah said as if it really wasn't obvious.

I just ignored her, falling straight asleep.

The next morning, I woke up to the salty smell of bacon, eggs and hash browns.

I came to realize, it was all right next to me.

A small styrofoam take out box with the goodies inside with a small note on the top, reading

"Good morning. How'd you sleep?"

and a smiley face ending it.

I snook out of our bedroom, creeping into Josh and Dylan's.

They were still sound asleep.

"What?!"

I questioned myself in shock.

I pinched the skin on my arm a couple times to make sure I was dreaming.

But guess what, I wasn't.

I raced down stairs to grab a fork, then devoured the food before anyone else in the house would wake up and notice.

After eating, I disposed the box in the outside garbage can and headed back in so I could go back to sleep.

It was only around 7 in the morning and I still felt heavy from the last night.

The second time I awakened, it was nearly 11:40.

I went downstairs to see what was up with my crew.

I entered the living room, where they all seem to be there and watching Cartoon Network.

It didn't surprise me a bit.

"Morning."

Dylan shouted with his back faced towards me. I wonder how he even knew I was around.

Instead of joining them, I walked out the door to get the newspaper. I know my fellow aquatints wouldn't.

When I got to the mailbox, I saw there was more than just the newspaper.

There was one envelope, it looked kind of like those old vintage ones.

It was addressed to me, but didn't say who it was from.

I folded it in half, and went back inside.

I got inside and slammed the paper down on the living room table.

"You guys, I'm just gonna take a real quick shower."

I didn't give them time to reply, I ran right up the stairs.

I entered my room, locking the door.

I undressed myself, wrapping a towel around me.

I sat on my bed, opening up the letter.

"Dear you,

(We both already know your name, there's no need to put it.)

Anyways, hi.
