Michael



From
DannyBoy: hey! You up mate?

To
DannyBoy: did you really need to text me? My bed isn't that far from yours!

From
DannyBoy: fine then I won't tell you that I'm downstairs doing breakfast if you want some

I didn't even need to reply, he knew I'd come down. I rubbed my eyes and raced down the stairs in my pyjama bottoms, bed-head and everything.
I was starving.
"What are you cooking?"
"Bacon, eggs, there's pancakes over there..."
"I'll have a bit of everything, Danny Boy."
I poured some cereal into a bowl and added milk. Claire would have loved some bacon and pancakes.
I wondered if she was up yet?
I messaged her.

To
ClaireBear: Hey princess how are you today?xx

I texted as I spooned cereal into my mouth. Before Claire could reply, Dan put a plate of food on the table in front of me so I finished my cereal and began on the hot stuff.


From
ClaireBear: I'm feeling brilliant babe! Strange not waking up next to you again :( can't wait to see you later!xx

To
ClaireBear: neither can I! Warning you that this house is MAD though!xx

From
ClaireBear: With you there I'm sure it is!xx

To
ClaireBear: haha! See you later beautiful! Love you :) xx

From
ClaireBear: Can't wait! Love you too sunshine xxx

I put my dishes in the sink and went back to my bedroom.
I put on my blue Mickey Mouse vest that was Claire's favorite, a pair of blue jeans that were ripped and turned up at the bottom, a pair of blue high-tops and my favorite pink and blue, striped hat.
I walked out and knocked on George's bedroom door.
"George? George?" I whined.
"What Michael?" Sounded his groggy voice. I must have woken him up. Oops.
"What time are we going to get Claire?" I whined.
"Oh my god, Michael." He moaned. "Um, we've got to leave about 11:30."
"Yay!" I ran off towards Aiden as he wandered sleepily out of the bedroom, rubbing his eyes.
I tackled him and he was taken aback a little.
"Yeah, hi. I wish you wouldn't do that so soon after I woke up, Mike. I haven't even had food yet." He laughs.
We wrestled for a little but then Aiden went down for breakfast so I went to find the laptop.
I sat on the bed and started up the laptop and as it loaded I spotted my nerf gun on the floor by the bed, where Dan chucked it last time I tried to shoot him. I picked it up and took a shot at the wall.
Damn, it would have been so much more fun if I had someone to shoot at.
Like Claire.
God, I miss her.
