His Help (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 15

"Help me!"

I tried to run after Danielle but I was being torn apart by the floor itself, the way I kept sinking till I was up to my chest in the liquid seeming concrete.

"Danielle!" I screamed as I suddenly went through the concrete quick sand, my body seeming to fall through the heavy darkness as it felt as if I were being suffocated, the feeling of falling through water but there was nothing there.

I was dying, I was falling, sinking into whatever this was but I almost felt okay with it, the comfort of it like I was falling through nothing but the feeling of something.

Could I forget about Danielle? About myself? Could I just sink into this feeling?

No!

Danielle needs me and I can't leave her again, she might really need me...

I tried to open my eyes, it didn't work. It had to work, I had to make it work if it wouldn't work by itself. Wake up!

I opened my eyes slowly, staring at the low glow of a lamp somewhere casting warm shadows across the room.

The only sounds were the quiet breathing of Kaycee and Caspar who were sleeping in the living room with me. The soft scratches of trees brushing against the house in the wind making ghostly noises and the waving shadows of branches dancing on one of the walls.

I looked down at the floor to see Caspar sleeping soundly with a throw pillow from the couch. Kaycee and I had the two couches and I saw that the tv had long since been shut off.

We had all decided on watching Jurassic World but the last thing I remember were the kids in some old ruins and Caspar making some bad dinosaur pun. I smiled at the thought as I stretched my arms, yawning at the same time.

I took out my phone and checked the time, seeing that it was still very early in the morning.

I looked out the window to see the sky was just barely tinted with a deep red color, the clouds a odd shade of purple.

I debated on wether or not I should wake Caspar up but I remembered how much he had said he hated waking up early and decided against it, instead getting up and quietly opening the back door and stepping out onto the porch.

The cold winter air nipped at my nose as I breathed in and out slowly, taking in the morning air as I sat down cross legged on the concrete of the porch as I watched the sky get a little brighter every minute. I was thankful for Caspar's warm pajamas as I hugged my knees close to my body.

The sunrise was so pretty.

I rested my head against the wall and closed my eyes, listening to the sound of the early birds chirping and the gentle breeze making a neighbors wind chime ring.

"Aren't you cold?"

I opened my eyes and looked up to see Caspar who looked tired, still rubbing his eyes as he sat down next to me, his body slightly pressed against mine.

I closed my eyes again. "I'm tired." I said truthfully as I let my thoughts become more wild and lucid, letting myself slowly but surely drift back into sleep.

I knew that we had school this morning and I should probably eat breakfast but I couldn't bring myself to move from this spot. Everything seemed perfect right now and I never wanted to forget this simple moment.

The way Caspar breathed slowly so he wouldn't disturb me and the way the sun was now peeking out from the horizon, the bright rays of sunshine falling on my face as I soaked in the warmth.
