Dead (Dorbyn) *Book One*

Ch.6

*Daniel's POV*

I didn't go back to sleep after what happened this night.

I sat up in my bed the whole night, lights on and eyes wide for any danger coming to me.

Danger as in Corbyn.

This time he really did scare the shit out of me and I actually don't wanna stay here any longer.

But I can't give up.

The stronger pary of me is telling me to stay here and not let Corbyn win. There has to be a reason why he acts like that and I'm gonna fine out.

Plus, I still didn't had a descent conversation with him. He had frozen when I had spoken his name then just disappeared.

I guess he didn't expect that I know his name, but that one second when he was frozen was enough to let me know that all the scaring he's doing is just an act. I bet he's a lovely guy under the facade.

It's now almost noon and I'm preparing Some food for myself. I hadn't seen Corbyn yet and the sunlight shinning throught the windows is reassuring me.

The sound of my phone ringing makes me look up from the pans. I pick up the device and hold it against my ear.

"Hello?"

"Daniel? Is that you? Are you okay?" I hear a voice ask me.

"Yes, Zach. I am." I say.
"Why are you asking?"

He sighs. "Well, Jack wanted me to call you and ask. He's really worried after what happened yesterday."

"Yeah, I understand. How is he? And you?"

"He's still scared. He's not letting me go for a single second. He's actually clutching my arm right about now."

I chuckle, but knowing how scares Jack really must be. I'm glad Zach didn't see anything like that happening.

"I'm glad he's fine." I heard Jack's voice through the phone at the background. "Did anything else happen? Ask him Zachy."

"Jack wants to know if anything else happend." Zach asked me two seconds later.

"Well, yes." Then I hear a lot of rustling and and "AU!" From Zach before I hear Jack's voice in my ear.

"What did he do? Are you hurt!" He screams making me hold my phone away from my ear until he's done yelling.

"Calm down, Jack. I told you I'm fine." I secure him before then telling the both of them what happen.

"Man, that's sick." I hear Zach comment on my story.

"Sick? Why are you still there, Daniel. He wants to hurt you." I hear Jack say worried.

"I'm still here cause I have nowhere else to go..." Jack immediately buts in.

"You can stay with us! We have a guest room!"

"No thanks, bro. I don't need to hear how you two are.... Yeah. No thanks." I say, hoping they'll get the message. And Zach does, because I hear him chuckle.

"He's right, Jack. He shouldn't sleep here."

Then I hear a slap sound and another "AU!" From Zach.

"Besides, I don't want to let him win." I explain. "I wanna learn to know him. Find out why why is he so...rude."

"You're not serious.... you really wanna stay in that horror house?" Jack says in disbelieve and I answer a short yes.

"Well then, good luck with that. I won't ever put a foot in that house again, just so you know that when you need, I won't come and help you." Jack says and hands the phone back to Zach, who speaks next.
