I awoke when I heard a small crash from downstairs. I jolted upright and shook Chris; he opened his eyes glaring at me.

                “What do you?” He paused when he heard a crash downstairs. I jumped and covered my moulth trying not to scream. I heard footsteps and jumped off the bed and got under. Chris followed what I did and shook as we waited. The doorknob shook and we heard a soft grunt. I looked at Chris with confusion and he shrugged his shoulders.

                “Okay, I know you’re in there Chris, open up.” A soft voice came from the other end.

                “Who’s that?” I whispered at Chris. He sighed and moved from under his seat. He got up and walked towards the door.

                “Act like we didn’t just sleep in the same bed, and fix your hair.” He told me, he paused from the door and then grabbed a pillow and blanket and dropped it on the ground and made a bed as I fixed my hair. I sat on the end of the bed and he went to open the door. A girl around the age of 13 walked in. She smiled at Chris and then she frowned at me.

                “Little too young for things like this don’t you think Chris?” The little girl crossed her arms over her chest.

                “Mother calm down, she was harassed by some guy so I took her here. She slept on the bed and me on the ground. Alright?” He said shaking his head walking to the ground and grabbing the blanket and pillow as if it’s been there all night.

                “Oh! You’re the one that screamed and woke me up last night?” She asked glaring at me.

                “I’m sorry Miss.” I told her looking at the ground.

                “All is already done; by the way they caught the guy they sent him back to the underworld. I think you should get home.” She said in a rude voice looking at me. I jumped up from the bed and walked out the door and then the front door. I took a deep breath and looked around.

                “Where am I?” I asked myself.

                “Hey Little Kasey!” Some guy said I looked up to see Toad in a car I smiled and walked over to him.

                “Do you know how to get back to my house?” I asked him.

                “Yeah get in I can take you there along with Chris and his mom.” Toad smiled. I shook my head taking a step back.

                “No, no. Chris’s mom doesn’t like me very much; she thinks I slept with Chris.” I told him.

                “Alright then, I’ll take you home first and then them. Don’t feel too bad, she doesn’t like anyone. Get in Little one.” He smiled opening the door from where he sat in front of the wheel. I jumped in rolling my eyes at him. He smiled at me as I closed the door. He looked forward and started the car up towards my house. “So what happened last night?”

                “Well first off, I was overwhelmed so I went for a walk on the beach, then Chris came and we got in a fight so I ran off. Then some guy scared me and tried to take me somewhere and Chris came out of nowhere and he-”I started but Toad burped.

                “And saved the day!” He yelled. I shook my head laughing at him.

                “No, he took me to that wood shop or whatever it is. Then he took me to the bedroom and we fell asleep.” I told him.
