sky's pov

~~~~~~~~~~~~

I get off the hidden bed in trumu's house.

Its the first day!

Maybe hes finally back today!

“trumu! Wake up!” I whisper scream. I didnt want his parents to know I was here.

A groan was all that came out of my friend.

I push him off the bed.

“come on! Dangit sky!” he say sleepily on the floor.

I throw off the pjs I borrowed and put my clothes on.

I pounce on trumu full force.

“ssssskkkkkkyyyyyy...” he whines.

I start to shake him and dont stop.

“im up! Stop it!” he yells and I get off.

So much for being quiet.

“hide!” trumu whispers and I pull the lever and hide in the small secret room we made.

“whats going on in here?!” the mother runs in, thinking, it might have been a robbery or a kidnapper telling him to get to the wall.

“i uhm, fell out of the bed.”

“what were you telling to stop?”

“i was having a dream as I fell. A dog was licking my face, trying to make me, uh wake up. I fell out of the bed and here we are now...”

“ok...” she strolls out.

Thankfully she didnt notice the lever, or the dog hair on the rug.

My dog lives in his own little room.

My friend get the things I need to get ready, like a toothbrush.

Unfortunately, we had to share shower time.

I would sneak into the shower, and one looks away as the other rushes to get clean, just so nobody would suspect anything.

Not as easy as it sounds.

“its your turn.” trumu whispers.

I snap my head out of the position it was for the whole time he was in the shower.

Its so awkward.

He is dripping wet in a towel.

I hop in the shower

*time lapse! :D*

I find my group of friends.

Oh notch... what if he came back today!

It would be just like old times!

I frantically look around for deadlox.

“dont get your hopes up, sky.” seto says pitifully.

“i cant help it! deadlox promised he'd come back, and it must be coming soon, because its been 7 frigging years! It has to be today!”

the bell rings before my friends can say anything else and we head inside.

*afterschool*

my enthusiasm and hope is gone.

Deadlox wasnt there.

The fluffy pats my back. “im sorry.”

“i just thought... if...” silent tears drip down my face.

I had to accept reality.

Deadlox wasnt here.

Deadlox will never come back.

He lied. He lied on the very promise I lived on for 7 goddamn years.
