Pieces of Time

Chapter Three

Noah Davis' P.O.V.

"I'm tired, so I'm going to bed. Night everyone." I heard Luna say.

I frowned slightly because she wasn't going to hang out with us, but I decided to not over think it too much.  I followed Paige and Astro into the living room to watch the movie.

"What do you guys want to watch?" Astro asked as he stood up to go look at the movies

"I'm cool with whatever." I said.

"Yeah same here." Paige responded.

"Okay, that was a lot of help." He said sarcastically. "How about 'The Conjuring'."

Paige and I agreed. Astro started the movie and sat down with Paige.

***

The movie ended and I was tired. I looked over at Astro and Paige, who were asleep. I sighed and rubbed my hand on my face. I grabbed my phone to check what the time was, but it was dead. I got up and shook Astro.

"What?" He mumbled sleepily.

"Do you have a charger?" I asked.

He sat up slightly and squinted his eyes. "Yeah, it's in my room. Are you staying over?"

"I think so." I replied.

"You can take my bed; I'm staying down here with Paige." He said and laid back down.

"Okay, night." I said and walked toward the staircase.

I got to the top of the dark stairs and squinted to look down the hallway to my left. I walked down and opened the first door on my right because Astro never told me which room was his. I opened the door and peered in; it was a closet. I opened the next one; a bathroom. I sighed in frustration and opened the next door to my left. I looked in and say lights all around the room. It smelled like old books mixed with vanilla. I looked at the bed and saw blonde hair cascading on the pillow.

'This is Luna's room.' I thought to myself.

I heard sniffling coming from her, was she crying?

"No, please! Don't!" She yelled.

I walked over to her.

"Don't touch her! Stop!" She screamed and started to cry even more.

"Luna!" I said and shook her gently. She opened her eyes quickly and started shaking.

"Astro?" She asked softly.

"No, it's Noah." I said.

Luna quickly sat up and wiped her eyes.

"Why are you in here?" She mumbled and brought her knees to her chest.

"I was looking for Astro's room and I accidently came in here. I heard you crying; Are you alright?" I asked.

"Uh, yeah. I'm fine." She said. I looked into her eyes, they looked lifeless almost.

"You sure?"

"Yeah." She replied and looked down at her sheets.

I looked around and saw the bear I gave her on her bed. I smiled slightly. "I see you like the bear I gave you."

She nodded. "I was just feeling lonely, that's all."

I licked my lips and nodded slowly.

"Astro's room is across from mine." She said softly.

"Right. Well, goodnight." I said.

Luna laid back down and turned her back away from me. I turned around and walked out of her room. I went into Astro's room and fell asleep on his bed.
