The Lost Boy (Sal X Reader) COMPLETED

Chapter 2

_5years after the accident_

I sat in my room, mum took me in as soon as she heard what happened. It was nice to finally be reunited with Larry but this wasn't the way I thought it would be. Larry helped me through my tough times. I was starting to get used to the numb feeling of dads death but it was still tough especially when my birthday, his birthday and Christmas came and went. I missed talking to him about the trips we had planned or spoiling surprises because we were bad at keeping them.
This week has been super stressful since mum has been having mental breakdowns and crying most of the time. It pains Larry and I. Larry has been super protective over me since my depression has gotten worse and the nightmares have been coming back but therapy seems to be working slowly.

"SIS, HURRY UP MUM WANTS TO GO SHOPPING!" Larry screamed, nearly breaking my ear drums and scaring me in the process.

"I'M COMING!" I yelled back, grabbing my black jacket and rushing out of my room.

"Hey mum, I'm ready." I smiled, her ruffling my hair. We all left and walked to the lift, clicking the button to the first floor. Walking outside I saw the black car that  mother drove. I yelled shotgun and jumped into the front seat, Larry grumbling while climbing into the back seat.

The trip to the shops was loud with the music blasting. Larry kept trying to sing along and failing. 

Arriving at the store we got out and grabbed the basket. Mum walked beside me as she read from her shopping list and throwing items in the basket. Walking around the store mum kept filling the basket. We made it to the checkout and scanned each item. Mum paid and we made our way back to the car. Sighing as I was finally able to go home.

I opened the door and placed the bags on the counter. Larry walking behind with more bags. 

"LARRY!" Mum yelled, causing me to drop the cup that was thankfully plastic.

"What is it?" Larry grumbled, placing the bags beside me with a thud.

"I asked you to grab this bag." She cried, dropping the eggs on the ground with a crash.

"Both of you go to your rooms! I'll do this myself." Mum sobbed, picking up the cracked eggs. We both ran to Larry's room and shut the door.

"What is mums problem?" Larry asked a little concerned, grabbing his stereo controller and turning on his music.

"I don't know. It's been tough for all of us remember." I shrugged my shoulders, starting to head bang to the music as sanity falls blasted from the speakers.

"You know im always here for you right?" Larry spoke as he turned off the speakers. 

"Yeah I know." I smiled. 

"Well just wanted to remind you." He smiled back, pulling out his chair and painting. 

About an hour later mother called us to tea. Larry ran out of the room and bolted to the kitchen, that boy and food. I walked behind, shutting the door and making my way into the tiny but well cleaned kitchen.

"Okay kiddies after this I need to go to work so I will be back later. NO and I mean NO fighting, breaking or making a mess, you both hear me!" Mum spoke seriously, something she hardly does.

"Yes mum." We both said, yelling jinx after. Mum ruffled my hair and sat down turning on the tv. We both looked at each other and went into the living room. Larry grabbed the space next to mum on the sofa, mummy's boy, and I took the spot on the floor, right by Larry's smelly feet.

The movie played as we ate, larry kept asking questions about the movie and what was going to happen. I kept hitting him in the foot to try and shut him up but he soon caught on and was talking even louder. Mum laughed and told him to be quiet. The movie came to an end and I collected the dirty dishes and started washing up. As I placed the dishes to dry on the rack mum said that she was leaving. We said goodbye and mum left as we walked into Larry's room. Sitting down on his bed. We blasted music and head banged for a while until I made my way into my room. Yelling night to Larry, I changed into my pyjamas and climbing into bed. I shut your eyes and drifted into a calm and relaxing sleep.
