I Thought You Loved Me (Sequel to Lies)

Chapter 2

We walked for hours and hours, stopping every 10 minutes. It had already been 2 days, but we got nearer and nearer every time. I guess we weren't as fit as I thought we were.

Finally we had got back to the house. We caught our breath and then looking into the windows to see if Phil's mum was still there. I checked the kitchen window to see if she was still there in that exact position but she wasn't. "I guess shes not in." "Nope." I grinned.

Surprisingly the front door was unlocked. We tiptoed in. "Mum?!" Phil shouted. "Shhhh." I whispered. "What? Just checking to see if shes in." I walked up to the counter and saw a note. "Phil look!" I said while pointing at it. He read it out.

"Dear my darlings, Dan and Phil. Dan, I'm very sorry for kicking you out like that. I just wasn't used to you being here. You were always nice to my little Philly. I shouldn't have respected you like that. And Phil, my sweetheart. I miss you. I shouldn't have respected you like that either. Boys, I give you the house to keep. Take care of it. I am in Spain with my new boyfriend. I dont know what you will think of that Phil, but I will tell you, he is much better than the boyfriend before. Now I doubt you will see this note because you ran away and I will never see you ever again, but just keep in mind, I love you both from the heart. Love mum xxx PS. I have left you some money so spend it wisely (the government will give you money as well) and I also payed for you both to go to school. I have told them you probally wont be in for some time but hopefully you will see this. I trust you boys."

Phil had gotten teary so i hugged him. "Phil, im sorry your mums gone away, but look at what we've got! The house! And she even left some money for us." It wasn't just some, it was £100 and that was a lot for me. "Shes got a nice, rich boyfriend if she did this for us then." Phil told me. "She was never like this. Just lazy and always sat on her butt." I giggled. I said in my head: thanks Phil's mum, you are very thoughtful. Thinking she was going to hear it. But then I had remembered what happened before. She had kicked me out. I tried pushing that thought all the way to the back of my head. I didnt want to think about the negative, only positive.

We went around the house, marching on our very own property. I liked how it was ours. I could do some more stuff around here than last time.

At night we settled in, Phil sleeping on his bed and me sleeping on the floor. "Are you sure your alright down there Dan?" "Yep im fine but if I cant sleep I might just pop into your bed." We both giggled. "Ok then." We talked for a bit but then we became sleepy. "Let's sleep Phil." But by then he was already in a dream of his own. I curled up in a ball and fell asleep.

I woke up, thinking it was morning, but it was still dark. I checked my phone to see what the time was. 3:12. I lyed back down but I couldnt get back to bed. It was too dark and I was a bit scared. I stood up and quietly hopped into Phil's comfy bed. It was much better than sleeping on the hard floor. I put my hand around his waist and fell asleep.
