"Hey! Your finally awake."

All she recieved was a groan from Phoebie. At first, Phoebie couldn't remember anything but then, the memories started pouring in. Phoebie began to sit up. Slowly. Steadily.

"How long was I..."

She was rudely interrupted, "Thirteen hours and .....15 seconds. Hey listen, I need to talk to you."

"I'm all ears,"  Phoebie said with a polite smile. She had hoped that the smile would mask her fear of what Sophia could be wanting to talk about.

"But first, what's your name? I just realised I don't know."

"Phoebie. Now tell me!"

"Okay. Well, I just wanted to.....actually no. Just forget it." Sophia got up and walked over to an extremely large cabinet.

"O....kay...." Phoebie saod sounding rather awkward. She watched as Sophia opened the cabinet door. Phoebie instantaneously gasped the moment the wooden doors creaked open. There were about 12 shelves up filled with DVDs and one shelf filled with CDs. Each shelf held about 25-30 DVD's and the top shelf looked like it held 50 albums at least!

For Phoebie, it was like heaven on Earth. Evrr since she was old enough to understand DVDs, she had watched them like there was no tomorrow. They were like the best friend she never had. All her life, Phoebie had been bullied and made fun of. So to fill up the huge hole in her heart where her friend should be, she watched films, read books and listened to music ALL the time. She basically lived in them.

So when Sophia revealed all the DVDs and CDs, Phoebie couldn't help but re-evaluate this house. Yes, it had a creepy bloodstain and no real light - it was all artificial - and she couldn't leave. However, maybe it would be a good way to die - in her version of heaven.

"So...which movie?" Sophia pulled her away from her thoughts. Phoebie got up, which took quite a lot of effort since she had been unconscious for over thirteen hours. She bent down and searched the bottom shelf. I wonder if I have enough time to watch them all, Phoebie thought. No way, there are FAR too many to watch them ALL.

"I think we should listen to a CD while I decide," Phoebie said, feeling rather impressed with her idea. She quickly looked through the top shelf. Eventually, she picked a Pixie Lott CD. She handed it to Sophia who walked over to the stereo in the corner.

The moment the CD went in, Broken Arrow came blasting out. At first, it sounded kind of loud but it wasn't difficult to adapt to the volume. Soon enough, they were both dancing around like crazy chickens. If anyone were to see them, Phoebie was sure they'd never go near that house again. That was one advantage of having no windows.

An hour later, they had finished listening to the whole CD and had decided to watch Why did I get married too? because they felt like a soppy, sad story. Somehow, Sophia felt like she could really trust Phoebie. It felt almost like they had known each other forever.

By the end of the film, they were crying their eyes out. After the film ended, they just sat there crying for five minutes. They watched three other films after that: The ring, Mean girls and Twilight.

"So...do you like books?" Sophia asked as she packed away the DVDs.

"Yeah. I love books. I'm a bookworm."

"Okay! Do you want to see our library?" Sophia said sounding a little more excited. She loved books and the only thing better than reading a book was sharing it.

Phoebie's eyes nearly popped out at the word library. They have a LIBRARY? Wow, she thought. She nodded eagerly. Sophia smiled and closed the cabinet. She lead the way to one of the several doors upstairs. She told Phoebie to close her eyes and lead her into the room. She guided her to the middle of the floor.
