Stay

Chapter [1]

"And that was the last box…" my brother, Tommy says as he puts the box down in our new home.

We’ve only been in Bradford for a day and I love it already.

I nod and look around the place… It’s huge and divided by a big living room, a large open counter kitchen and front- and back yard where the lawn in greener than the ones I imagine up in heaven. That reminds me, the bedrooms... I haven’t seen them yet, apparently there are supposed to be six though… I don’t know why my parents had their minds set on this particular house.

I take my phone out my pocket and touch the power button to turn it on, unlocking it I check for any messages. To my surprise there are a couple of them, from Lindsay, Bella, Robin and my personal favourite… Logan. That fucker ruined my life; he’s a cheat and a liar... I hate him! The only reason he still texts me is because he wants to lead my life into complete ruin. I press exit and ignore the rest of the messages. I'll get back to them tomorrow, well to everyone except him.

I look at the time and see the clock striking 21:54, reminding me that I need to get to bed. Especially if I want to do some exploring tomorrow.

"Tommy, pass me my suitcase?" I ask loudly.

He immediately turns around and grabs my suitcase, roughly tossing it to me. I thank him and he nods in return, so I turn to the staircase and then make my way up the stairs.

"Goodnight, Tommy!" I yell over my shoulder.

"Night, Sidney!" His voice echoes in reply.

By now I have picked a room and it’s all the way down the hall… the last door and most importantly… the last room. I drag my suitcase behind me and open the door. It is so big and beautiful, that I almost lose it completely. It’s way better than my old room back in Doncaster. Four bright green walls surround me, which happens to be my favourite colour, and a black carpet covering the floor. Luckily my bed along with my desk and other things, are already in here. For a change everything actually fits! My old room was so small and cluttered… I hated it.

Soon my box of pictures catches my eye. It’s lying on my bed, just like I requested. I bend down and open the bag in search of some clothes. I find some sweats and a baggy t-shirt with a cookie printed on… I like cookies, okay! I leave my suitcase on the ground along with the rest of my clothes, not physically up to that challenge right now. Instead I get up and search for the bathroom, so that I can take a shower.

I find another door and walk towards it. Once I open it, it seems to be the bathroom. It’s beautiful and has lovely curtains framing the windows. There is already a towel on the sink, so I don’t have to bother going down stairs to get one. I notice a small note on the towel…

Hey Sid

Thought you would like a towel so that you can shower, so I put this here cause I knew you wouldn’t like to go through all the boxes to find one.

I smile at myself as I finish reading the note Cameron left me… Cameron I a guy who works for my mom and dad, he has helped me a lot. He also happens to be the one who moved my stuff into my bedroom. I also think he likes me… We’ve been on a couple of dates, but nothing serious or anything. I honestly only view him as a friend.

I strip off my clothes and hop into the shower. After turning on the water, the hot water feels good against my skin. I rub shampoo into my hair and then rinse it off, repeating the action with the conditioner. Getting out of the shower, I push the note aside and grab the towel. After I wrapped it around my hair, I put my clothes on. I take my blow dryer and use it on my damp hair, when it’s dry I tie it into a messy bun and head back to my room. I close my door and admire my room once again, still amazed by it. I get under my covers and stare at the ceiling…

I’m glad that I’m here with my brother and away from the people who ruined Donacaster for me. Soon enough, I fall asleep.

I hope you guys like it much more now. I deleted the other one cause I made it boring and messed up a lot. Anyway hope you guys like it, thanks again for even reading this story.
