Silence In The Trees

Chapter 5

Hey everyone! So this is another quick note but I just wanted to point out that it's back to Corrine's point of view again in this chapter and it will be from now on unless I say other wise. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the story. I'm enjoying writing it!

   I shivered and rolled over, trying to find a warm spot in my bed. My mind kept thinking cold, why is it so cold?

   Finally, I ended up rolling off my bed and it was a lot colder on my floor so I made a hasty scramble to climb back into it.

   I looked out the window really fast and it occurred to me why it was so cold.

   It was snowing. The ground was completely covered in snow.

   As much as I love snow, I was pissed. It had to snow on a Saturday, why can't it snow on a day I have school so I don't have to go?

   I flopped back into my bed after checking the time. It was 11:00 in the afternoon already. Oh well, I didn't have plans and my bed looked a lot more inviting than anything else did. I rolled back into my same position since it was warm.

   I was finally getting comfortable when I heard "Where's my love?" playing (the acoustic version of course, who do you think I am?) and I realized it was my ringtone.

   I listened to the beautiful song. I love this song so much, though it makes me cry every time I hear it. I can't really explain why. That's why I set it as my ringtone.

   I have a bad habit of just avoiding picking my phone up but I figure if it's a song that makes me ball my eyes out I'll answer the phone so it'll turn off.

   Though today I wasn't really feeling it. Laying in bed, crying all day sounded like a good plan to me so I let it continue.

   Finally it stopped and I was about to fall asleep again when my phone started ringing again. I sighed and picked it up angrily.

   "What?" I asked, not bother to say hey, or even ask who was calling.

   "Hey sunshine. You always this grumpy?" God Will, he's so annoying.

   Wait. Will? How did Will get my phone number?

   "Will.. how the hell did you get my number?" I heard him snort quietly.

   "Mason gave it to me, he tried calling you but you didn't pick up and apparently you normally ignore his phone calls when your sleeping. He thought it would be better if a number you didn't recognize called. I thought it was stupid but I guess I underestimated him."

   I'm going to strangle Mason. I will literally strangle him for this.

   "Good God. What do you want anyways?"

   "You sound annoyed."

   Is he that dumb.

   Is. He. That. Dumb.

   That was a rhetorical question.

   "Yes, I'm very annoyed. Thanks for pointing that out. Are you done annoying me yet or is there a reason your calling me?" I sighed.
