‘Want something to eat?’ Reece said while he stuck his head in the fridge and his hand on the other side of it holding himself from falling in any deeper. ‘Nah, not hungry.’ I replied, after not eating every much my hunger didn't even show anymore. ‘When’s the last time you ate?’ he said turning around with a ball of chips in his hand. He looked down at them with his lips out, then looked back at me. ‘Yesterday breakfast.’ I only had toast, one slice. ‘Amber, that’s not good enough. You NEED to eat, now shut up and eat some chips.’ He said shoving the ball of cold chips in my face.’ No option?’ I asked screwing up my face towards the bowl currently being shoved in my direction. “No” Reece said bluntly, turning around.

He put the chips in the microwave and leaned his hip on the side of the counter. He had his hand on his hip, all of a sudden my eyes widened as he ran around like crazy. 'What are you doing?' I asked while laughing,  'Doing stuff before the count down hits 0' He said while opening the draws of knifes and forks out. '5...4...3...2...1...ZERO!' I quietly yelled out so I wouldn’t wake the house. 'DAMN.' Reece said puffed out. 'You're one silly boy, Mastin.' I said laughing and flung my head back. 

I sat at the table and ate some chips, ate until I had enough. I looked at the time and it was 3:15 AM ‘God, look at the time!’ I whispered while pointing at the clock. ‘Crap’ chuckled Reece. ‘Time flies don’t it?’ I said. ‘Yeah, it does’ He replied in his sexy English accent. ‘I hope you sleep well tonight, and don’t ‘Stub your toe’ again?’ Reece said winking while walking down the passage way. ‘Whatever’ I whispered behind him ‘It works on dad’ I said. ‘Obviously I’m not your dad’ Reece whispered yawning.

Reece’s room was opposite the spare, so that’s probably why he heard my crying. ‘Goodnight Amber, sweet dreams’ Reece said scrufferling up my hair and scrunching up his nose. ‘Night night Reece’ I said fixing my hair, even though I was about to sleep on it.

 I walked back into the pitch black bedroom.  The crack of light that came threw my door showed me were the shape of the bed was, I closed the door and ran and jumped on the bed before I forgot were it was. I sat in bed and twisted my hair around my finger. I was sitting and picturing what my future could be like if I lived with them. Would I change? Would I get a job? Would I stop being bullied?

My eyes opened to a little sunlight that was gapeing through the curtains. I wiped the drool from my mouth as I looked at the time. ‘7:07 I better get up’ I sighed. I laid on my back with my arm covering my eyes. ‘Knock knock’ I heard at my door in a male’s voice. Reece. ‘Yeah?’ I said in my corky morning voice. The door opened ‘So you’re up?’ Reece questioned me at the door. ‘Nah, I’m sleep talking with my eyes open’ I laughed. Reece giggled. He went to exit my door way when he turned around and said ‘How’d you manage to get drool on your forehead?’ I looked at him then slapped my forehead in embarrassment. ‘I have no clue’ I laughed.

I was in a huge shirt that went just passed my bottom and ruffled hair, just like in the sexy movies, but my shirt was my dads which I pack in a rush without knowing. I walked out in to the kitchen wearing that, forgetting that it’s not my house. I scratched my head and got a wolf whistle from behind, I turned around and it was Reece, wide mouth smiling. I looked at him with my cheeks going read. ‘I’m only kidding.’ Reece said cheesely.

‘Want something for breakfast?’ Reece said standing next to the toaster waiting for it to pop up the golden toast he’s been waiting a minute and a half for.  ‘Nah, not yet, I better go get changed, I totally forgot this isn’t my house’ I chuckled and tip toed down to the spare room. ‘I better make this bed as well, and open the blinds’ I muttered talking to myself. I put my jeans on, chucked on a tank top and walked out. I don't know why I put them on instead of my uniform, just something to cover up my flesh while I waited for the shower. 

This house was so stunning in my eyes, after coming from nothing, I was just so over whelmed. It was a beautiful house. And, it had heating... In the roof!
