Chase had been staying in my house for a while, but we had gotten a lot of work done on the house we were fixing up for him. His would probably be done in a few days if we work hard, but I wouldn't mind if he had to stay with me longer.
It was about lunch time, and we were eating in the living room. I had got my food and he got his and we sat down to start eating.
"There is something I've been wanting to ask you." He said.
"What did you want to ask?"
"Who is this?" He asked as he walked over to a picture frame and took it off the wall.
"What?"
"Did you know her?"
"No, her picture was here when I found the house."
"Why did you hang it up?"
"Because I figured she has as much right to stay here as I do; and she's really pretty and I thought her picture would look nice there."
"Ok."
"Why did it matter?"
"It didn't, I just thought she was your sister or something."
"No, but I do have some pictures of my sisters and brother in my rocket, that I haven't brought in here yet."
"Cool."
"I can show you when we are done eating if you'd like."
"Yeah that would be great."
We finished eating, and we started walking towards the rockets. We were walking and the rockets were just in view; before I knew it had happened, I was on the ground. I looked at Chase who was also on the ground, and we both sat up as another rocket landed.
We walked up to the rocket and waited for something to happen. After a while the door opened, but no one came out. I started to walk inside and chase stopped me.
"You don't know what's in there."
"It's probably just another drawing winner."
"You don't know that, there could be something dangerous in there."
"Like what?" I asked and he looked at me trying to think of something. "See, nothing. And I'm going in."
I walked in and looked around for a minute. This rocket was very similar to Chase and my rocket. I was at the front of the rocket and turned around to see a guy laying in a chair. He hadn't moved yet and I thought he was dead. I walked over to him and as soon as I had gotten right next to him he shot up and I jumped back out of fear. At some point while I was jumping back, I fell to the ground. As I stood up, I saw him pull an earpiece out of his ear and look at it.
"It's broken." I said and I must have startled him because he jumped when he saw me there.
"What?"
"It's broken, your earpiece." I said as I helped him up.
"I can see that, but- You are Raley right?"
"Yeah."
"I thought you were dead."
"Yeah yeah, I know."
"What?"
"Chase told me."
"Chase is alive?!" He asked excitedly.
"Yeah-" but before I could even finish, he was speed walking out of the rocket.
I walked outside and they were talking. I walked up to them, and stood next to Chase.
"Hey Raley, this is Emmett." Chase said as I walked up.
"You two know each other?"
"Yeah, he was like best friend back on planet Xoon."
"Xoon?"
"Oh yeah, you left before the planet was officially named."
"Ok so it's named Xoon?"
"Yeah."
"Ok, well it's been long day so how about we get some sleep?"
"Ok, where should Emmett sleep?" Chase asked.
"He can sleep in my house, with you until we get your house done."
"Ok."
We walked back to my house and we went to sleep. We were all tired since it had been a pretty busy day.
