Chapter Two

Micah Grayson

Looking up at the ceiling Micah layered with one hand behind his head as the other rested in his pajama pants. His mind was racing with thoughts which prevented him from sleeping.

He'd only been to school a couple days and he wasn't fond of it. The students got on his nerves. One girl in particular wouldn't leave him alone. No matter how much he ignored her she consistently went out of her way to talk to him.

The little voice in his head joked about killing everyone in the whole school while Micah quickly shook the thought. He was trying not to go down that path. He was aware of the damage he caused when he wasn't in control and he didn't like the outcome.

Closing his eyes he attempted to sleep hoping that his on going nightmares would stop. Hopefully the new environment would make his sleep more peaceful and less antagonizing.

"Mi-Mic?" His little sister Melody called his name as he tried to color.

This was the first time he'd went all day without going to the closet for timeout and he wasn't going to let her ruin it.

"Mi-Mic play with Mel please?" She asked holding one of her Barbie dolls out to him.

To only be three Mel spoke very well as their parents made sure both kids went to upscale private schools. At just three Mel was fluent in English and Spanish as Micah was taught the same  when he was her age.

"No Melody. You always get me in trouble when we play." Micah stressed brushing her off as he continued to color making sure to stay in the lines so his father would be happy.

"I not this time." Melody pleaded her big brown eyes piercing his.

Huffing Micah closed his coloring book and placed all of his colors back in their box.

Smiling Melody clapped. She got a thrill out of being able to play with Micah. Sometimes he was mean to her but she still tried her best to be nice to him because eventually he'd come around.

Walking toward her room the two sat in the middle of the floor as they played barbies. Micah hated when she begged him to do girl stuff but he knew as her big brother he had to do it.

As the two played Melody giggled as her brother made the act more fun for her altering his voice. Micah was quite the character. Sometimes he'd pretend to be other people all the time. He was good at it. Too good at it.

"Oh Melody those heels look great hun?" He mocked his mother's voice as he complimented Mel's Barbie doll.

After playing with his sister got boring he wanted to do something else.

"Hey Mel we've played your games now lets play my games." He said tossing the Barbie and helping her up as the left out of her pink princess room.

Melody liked playing with Micah so she agreed following him downstairs. The two made sure to be really quiet as the crept downstairs not wanting to wake their sleeping parents.

It was every bit of seven in the morning and the two were suppose to still be sleeping until at least eight. But they were kids what kids really followed rules?
