"Jamie, I saved you some!" exclaimed Luke, who was watching Michael in disgust as he piled pizza in his plate.

"Ok.  I'm really not hungry, but I'll eat some."

I sat down and grabbed myself 2 slices, quickly eating the first one but slowing down in the second.

I left the crusts on the plate, throwing it away and checking the time.

The stove clock read 6:53.

I sighed, realizing I was gonna have to stay out here for a bit.

I sat down beside Michael, who attempting to stuff his face with pizza and kill zombies at the same time.

It wasn't really working out for him.

"DAMMIT!" he yelled.

"Michael, calm down, I think you scared the shit out of Jamie." said Calum.

I was kind of flustered, I didn't want all eyes to be on me.

"So Jamie, tomorrow we're going to go to the mall.  Who do you want to come?" asked Luke, looking up from his phone.

"Um, maybe Calum and you?" I asked, not sure if that was who he had in mind.

"Yeah, that's fine." he replied, staring at Michael, who was starting on his second box of pizza.

"Where do you want to go?" asked Calum, coming into the room from the kitchen.

"Um, maybe Hot Topic and some other stores?  We can go to Walmart for my toiletries and room shit." I said, not wanting them to spend a lot on me.

"Are you sure?" asked Ashton.

"Yeah." I said

"Ok." Luke agreed, going back to his phone.

I watched Michael kill some zombies for a while, not really interested in anything.

I looked at the clock on Michael's PlayStation.

7:32

"Um, can I go to bed?" I asked.

"Yeah, if you want." replied Luke, kind of shocked that someone wanted to go to bed this early.  It was still light out.

"Ok.  Um goodnight."

"Goodnight!" the four boys chorused.

I ran upstairs, glad to have some quiet.

I went into my room, and discovered that I had a TV.

It was behind a set of doors, and you slid them to the side.

I grabbed the remote, which was beside it, and climbed into bed.

I turned on the TV, and flicked through the channels, not really interested.

I found a channel called Teen Nick, and it had a show with two guys, a fat one and a hot one.  They were hiding from a dog in some woman's house.

I dropped the remote, watching as a new guy showed up to take the dog, but he got scared too.

My eyes slowly closed, and I drifted off into a deep sleep, listening as the guy talked about whittling soap.
