I lay in bed at 2am.
Do I tell her?
Not yet.
I have to soon.
I turned my fragile head to the side to see my best friend, Taylor, asleep on the matress on my milky white carpet. I slipped out of my bed and creeped down the stairs like a mouse hiding from a cat seeking its cheese. I hopped over the 6th step knowing it creaks. Once at the bottem I saw Saucy, my cat, licking herself on the carpet by her water bowl.
"Hey kitty cat, cant sleep?" I said kneeling down as she pushed her head against my knee. I scratched behind her ear. "Neither can I, so much to think about!"
I noticed a scratch on her ear. "Were you fighting with Frankie again? Silly cat" I started thinking more "Will you miss me when we leave? Doubt it. You're just a cat" I placed a kiss on her forehead and got up.
I started walking to our large kitchen, hitting my hip on the dining room table.
"Shit!" I screamed in a whisper. "Ive been fucking shot! Man down" I chuckled to myself, clutching my hip in pain. Tip toeing towards the sink,I grabbed my purple glass with my name encrusted on the side.
Slowely turning the tap and letting the water leak into my glass. I switched it off and downed the drink in one go. Walking away I noticed something shimmering in the grass in my back garden.
'Click'
I turned the key to the back door unlocking it. Stepping outside, the cold winds of London were like a slap in the face. I walked over onto our recently cut grass and beant down. [Picture to the side --->] A thin, sparkeling silver chain was lying in the grass. My fingers trembeled across it as I picked it up and wound it between my icy cold fingers. I came across the pendant at the end on the chain and tried studying it with only the moonight to help.
"Delilah?" I heard as my head shot around and I shoved the chain in my pocket.
"Dan?" Looking at my 22 year old brother standing in the door way with messy hair a tired eyes.
"What are you doing at here? Its.. 2:46am!" My brother said checking his watch and replying with a croaky voice.
"I can ask you the same thing!" I said making my way back into the house.
"No! What are you doing on the floor, outside, at bloody 2am?" Dan replied, whispering.
"I needed some air okay" I whispered.
"Mums gonna-"
"Dont tell her then! Im 16! I dont need you guys policing my every move!" I said sternly.
"Just go back to bed" He said walking up the stairs "Oh, and I couldnt sleep, heard you unlock the door"
I took a deep breath in and my way up the stairs after him, hopped over the matress and clambered into my bed.
