(Back to Eleanors POV)
Ronan would cry and scream and litterally anything now.
It only had to be, the sun come out from behind the clouds or someone to cough or sneeze or the chime of the old grandfather clock to set him off.
He slept lots. Ate infrequently and his speaking became slurred and difficult to understand.
I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth Thursday evening. Tomorrow is friday and I'm looking forward to the weekend.. School has been a pain in the arse this week. All three of us have had exams and it's been pretty stressful.
Ronan appeared in the bathroom doorway and seemed to be looking at something behind me.
He sucked in his lower lip and sniffed.
"Whats up baby?" I asked him.
"Its in your shadow Ellie."
I froze.
I flicked my head round to see behind me but nothing was there.
I turned back to face Ro but he had already run off, his absense made me jump because I didnt hear him leave.
I rinsed out my mouth and climbed into bed. I reached over my shouder to turn off the light but Edward was there and he scared me to death.
I let out an involentary yelp which made him jump.
Then he chuckled.
"Sorry.." He whispered "I didnt mean to scare you"
At the end of the sentence his mouth curled into a smile.
He was handsome, but he didnt care about his appearance much.
Ed wasnt really one of those guys who spends two hours doing his hair in the morning.
He seems to just roll out of bed and looks the way he does.
He quite often gets the attention of girls without even doing anything.
But he's not looking for a relationship right now.
One girl even declared him "The Hottest Guy In School" in which he hated..
He didnt go in for a week after that happened.
"What wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing."
He just knelt there, and smiled at me.
After what seemed like forever, he climbed in with me again.
We just laid there. For ages. Staring. Talking.
"Do you ever feel like you're being watched?" I asked curiously.
"All the time" He relied.
"Me too."
He let out a heart felt sigh and rolled over to face me.
He closed his eyes and I closed mine.
I couldnt sleep though. Now that we had been talking about it I felt like there was someone watching me.
Not just watching me though. Almost like there was someone else or something else in the room with us.
I opened my eyes. Just over an hour had passed.
12:16 AM
I looked over at Eddy who was fast asleep and peaceful.
Something twitched behind him distracting my gaze over to the window.
My bones burned hot as I padded over to the window sill.
Without thinking I unhooked the latch and pushed the glass so I could feel the cold air against my skin.
I shut my eyes and breathed in a lung full of the orchard air.
I opened my eyes.
And thats when I saw dad.
