Hell's Angel (BK 1)

The Scene at the End

Dani's POV
(Nightwing27th)

I sat at the desk in the main room, staring at my computer screen. I was reading as fast as I could, studying up on a case. In the distance I could hear Chase playing. He's been entertaining Lizzie, in the loudest ways he can think of. I hear some crashes and a few bangs. Then Lizzie bursts out into laughter. I sighed, trying to tune it out.

I could feel myself getting more annoyed by the second. I heard more bangs followed by more laughter. I opened my mouth to say something when the noise stopped. I sighed in relief and then decided to stay quiet. I went back to reading, after rereading the same line twenty times. I made it down to the second paragraph, enjoying the quiet.

I hear another crash and more laughter. I sigh. I keep staring at the screen, hoping it'll go away. Then I hear Chase making airplane sounds as I see him run by in my peripheral vision. My eyes flicker up, in an annoyed way. He's running around the room with a sheet tied around his neck, his arms stretched out, and a bucket on his head while Lizzie's face was turning red from laughing so hard. He slammed head first into the far wall. A picture frame crashed to the ground, glass shattering, as he landed on his butt.

I dropped my head into my hands and sighed.
