Kendall's POV

I slowly squint my eyes as I open them. I look around my messy room. I'm a teenager what can I say? I like my room messy, its my design. Lights from outside shine through the window. I search my room for the alarm clock. Sometimes my room is so messy, I ask my mom were my bed is. Finally I spot a red dot some where on my dresser. 2:30. Yay! More time to sleep!

I roll out of bed and land on my face. A great way to wakeup! Ugh I hate life. I hop out of bed and try to wake up my twin, because once I'm awake I can't go to sleep.

"Hope!" I whisper. I shake her shoulder. She doesn't budge. Ugh. This is harder than I thought. Being the 13 year old I am, I slap her in the face. She doesn't move. I check her pulse. Breathing. Why is she such a heavy sleeper?

Bang! A loud noise echoed through the house. Hope hops out of bed. Her heart was beating so hard it looked like it was going to pop out of her chest.

"What was that?" I whisper. She shakes her head. My eyes widen as I hear a scream. I grab Hopes hand and I run to the little door in our closet. Our secret hangout. It was hidden behind clothes. It was a huge place that was hidden. We used it because we got robbed one time. By the way I am rich.

I get into the room in the closet and close the door. I heard more screams and loud bangs. I closed my eyes shut and put my hands tight against my ears. Tears spilled out of my eyes. I felt warm hands wrap around me. I look up and see Hope with tears spilling out of her eyes. I hug her tight and kiss her cheek.

"Anyone in hear?" a deep voice says. Why would some one say that? Who would answer? Pedo bear? I could hear drawers opening and closing. I suddenly hear hangers moving. I hold my breathe as footsteps walk away.

I keep my eyes closed as darkness rises over me.

I open my eyes. Hope is watching me sleep. Creepy. I look around. Its night. What happened?

"Hope." I whimpered. "Yes." she whispered. Tears brimmed her eyes. "Should we go out?" I ask. She doesn't look into my eyes. She looks down and nods.

I open the door.

The room. The drawers were all around the room. Clothes everywhere. A pack of cigarettes was even on the ground. A empty beat bottle was broken on the ground.

I took hold of Hopes hand and opened the door. We both took a deep breathe and walked to the living room. Glass and blood was spread across the floor. Furniture sprawled across the living room. In the kitchen broken plates and silver ware was everywhere. I looked at Hope. She looked at me. She opened her mouth but didn't say anything.

I walked over to my parents room. The beds were flipped over and things were missing from the room. I walk into the dining room. I whimpered as I sobbed. Lifeless mom and dad was on the floor. Mom has a knife in her chest. Blood was everywhere. Dad had a hole in his head.

Hope rushed to my side and hugged me tight. Are sobs filled the silent room. I crawl over to mom and put my hand on her chest. No heart beat. No breathing.

Why? Why?

I hug her tight. Her bright blue eyes wide open. I stare at them. No movement. No life.

"I love you." I whisper as I kiss her head.

I crawl over to dad. His lifeless green eyes staring into earth. I took hold of his hands. Cold. Tears fall out of my eyes onto my dad's shirt.

"I love you." I whisper.

I close his eyes with the tips of my fingers. Hope does the same to mom. I crawl over to Hope, put my arms around her chest as I hear the voices of my parents echo in my head. "I love you too."
