~Chapter Twelve: Given Up

Christmas is a week away and I feel as if something is hanging in the air. It's not a good thing either. I feel like there is some extremely important news that is needed to be told by the boys but they can't seem to find the correct words. They seem to be really quiet lately and it's quite unusual to be honest. Jai or Beau normally have something to say but both are silent when it comes to dinner.

I still haven't heard anything from the Hospital, so Gina and I are taking a trip out to the Hospital tomorrow while the boys get their shit sorted.

I had a pretty good sleep last night. It was the best I've slept in ages. Before my first nightmare to be precise.My subconscious coldly reminds me. She's a right bitch to be honest. A pain in my ass.

Rolling out of bed, I grab my hair brush, and untangle my lions mane. Searching through my drawers, I pull out a clean bra. Taking off my tank top, I quickly clip my bra up and pull my singlet and tank top back on before any of the boys can intruded.

What is it time??

Tugging on the curtains, they open to reveal a bright blue sky with no cloud in sight. Opening the window a crack, I exit the room and tie my hair up so it doesn't tickle or stick to my neck. Ambling down the hallway, voices catch my interest, especially when my name is mentioned. Stopping in my tracks, I press my ear against the closed door. It's Gina's room.

No shit Sherlock.

I roll my eyes at my thoughts but listen closely when someone on the other side of the closed door gets angry. My eyes widen slightly as the door nob begins to slowly turn. Darting away from the opening door, I scramble down the rest of the hallway and into the kitchen. I feel a bit breathless and flustered. Sitting on the bench is my fully charged iPhone. I can't help the smile that takes over my features as I do the code and my background. I cheekily grin into the camera as I take a photo of myself. It actually doesn't look half bad. Wait who's that person in the background??

Zooming in on the picture I see that Luke is in fact photobombing my picture. Turning around, he's standing in the corner and laughing like an idiot. I glare at him but then see the funny side of it, I begin to laugh too. My sides hurt and my cheeks ache from laughing.

Putting my phone on the bench, carefully of course, I pour some milk into a bowl and fill it up with Cocoa Puffs. Getting a spoon and stirring the contents of my bowl, I begin to spoon mouthfuls into my mouth. Chewing and then swallowing, I continue this process and then rinse off my dishes. Placing them in the almost full dishwasher, I full the little compartment up with dish washing powder and set the dishwasher to wash the dirty dishes.

Exiting the kitchen, I sit myself down on the couch and watch t.v. Adventure Time's theme song is playing and I can't help but bop my head to the fast beat.

"Hey, you wanna come into town with us?? We've got another idea for a prank." Beau asks as he sits next to me on the couch.

"I'd love to watch you guys embarrass yourselves but I can't. I've got plans." I say with a small smile.

"Oh, okay then." Beau says quietly.

"Hey could you do a favour for me?? Could you please check around the prices for a laptop. Please?" I frantically ask. Running hand through his hair, Beau nods and I smile gratefully. "Thanks cuzzie!!"

Bounding out of the lounge, Adventure Time forgotten, I race to my room to get ready to go to the Hospital. Running the brush through my hair again, I pull off my tank top and roll on some deodorant. I tug on a clean shirt and search for some jeans. After jumping around a bit, I do the zipper up and the button. Shoving my feet into some socks and then a pair of my ankle boots, I rush to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
