Save me

Chapter 25 - Lonely

5 days until Christmas

~Daisy's P.O.V~
Two weeks. It's been two weeks since my best friend dissapeared.
And all I can say now is...
I hate year sevens. All rushing around like little ants, walking into me, being mean to each other all the freaking time, interfering with my life. Apart from this one boy, I think his name is Jake or something? He just sits in the library minding his own business. I've thought of approaching him before but haha no. Social anxiety nooop.
At least the first term is over now. Yay. Winter time. Christmas. A Christmas that I'm going to spend with June because my parents are working, Ben's fucking dead or something, and I have like no other friends. Apart from Lewis I guess... Nope.

I just lay down in my bed in the morning, waiting. Waiting. Waiting. A terrible thumping headache. My eyes sore from crying. What was I even waiting for? What do I have to get up to do? Nothing. Nothing for um... All of today, all of tommorow. Then I'm going to June's for three days... Fun times.
I turned to my phone and saw it vibrating. I groaned and sat up, grabbing it off the bedside table. A call... Of bloody course. And seeing the name 'Zeldy bestie' no longer brought hope. Just despair. It passed by as I accepted the call.
"Hello?" I said. White noise. Static. That's all I heard. Streaming out of my phone, surrounding my head so it was all I heard, blocking out my thoughts and leaving me curled up in a ball with my pillow wrapped around my head. I hesitantly reached my arm out and hung up, shutting my eyes tight and trying to slow down my breathing. I guess in that moment of terror a panic attack came on. I haven't had one in a while but I still knew what to do. I slowed down my breathing until it passed over. I groaned and sat on the side of my bed, head in my hands until I had enough energy to stand up and go downstairs. There was no hot chocolate waiting for me on the counter, unfortunately, so I made my own. There was no noise apart from me. The air was still and quiet. It was almost peaceful, but the grey dawn light that seeped it's way through the window gave everything a cold and eerie atmosphere that sent shivers down my spine. I made my way into the living room with my hot chocolate in one hand and my phone in the other. I sat down on the sofa and just listened to music for a while. Silence, with quiet alternative emo shit in the background. I guess I was bored, but I was just thinking. Where is Ben? What will I do when I see him again? 'Probably kiss him' I thought to myself, and smiled in embarrassment. Did I really just think that? Yes, yes I did. What about June? Is June okay? What happened to that cat? I guess the cat and Static and the monster are connected. Along with Ben's dissapearance. Time flew by and I heard a tapping on the window. I metophorically shrugged it off, it was probably just a tree. But then again, everything was still still. I sighed and carried on sipping my moderately cold hot chocolate. A few minutes later 'Tap tap'. I looked to the window to see, yep, you guessed it, Static. Her cheeks moved into a what would be a smile, her hand on the window, occasionally tapping. I groaned, more in annoyance. Can I not just have a normal day?! I paused my music and put my drink on the table. I walked over to the window and stood, staring into the creepy girl's eye sockets. I took in a deep breath and...
Stuck my middle finger up at her.
'Ŗųde͞' I could almost hear her say. I chuckled to myself and shuffled back over to the sofa, turning back for a second to see that creepy little son of a glitch was gone. Peace and quiet, yay.
