When I wake up the next morning, Jakob's already awake. I stretch and slowly sit up, I couldn't see anything no matter how much I tried. I put my hand in my pocket and took the small container that held my contacts and placed them on my eyes. I blinked a few times and my vision became clearer.

"Rise n' shine, Sleeping Beauty." I say after sitting up.

He couldn't help but smile when he looked over at me, "I've been awake quite a while thank you very much. You're the Sleepy Beauty." Jakob replied.

"You have a point then," I tell him, "but you did fall asleep during the movie on me."

"Yeah, I did. That's what happens when we're up until 12." Jakob told me and yawned. We both hadn't fully recovered from our rest. Stretching, yawning, more stretching, and multiple yawns. Until finally, we were up and eating breakfast.

Afterwards, Jakob had told me he lives by his lonesome. That's the reason his parents hadn't been home yet. And that's also probably the reason he are so much at my house. He provides for himself. We both decided to go out and wander. Mainly just getting out of the house and going down random alleys.

We found some kind of garden a few blocks from the previous park we trailed through last night. It was of many vivid shades of green, red and orange. Jakob and I took a break and sat in the overgrown grass. There were various types of weeds and plants, smelling like an antique shop.

No one even walked past the garden at all. I'm pretty sure nobody even knew this spot anyways. So this is mainly our garden. I lay on my back and rest my eyes. The grass hung over my face and many trees surrounded the unfound grounds as well.
