I groaned as I sat up off my bed hearing the springs move and the creaking of the floor from the weight change, I opened my eyes and allowed them to get used to the light before standing up and looking out side, everything was beautiful the trees were fully grown but started turning orange, flowers were sprouting and the birds were chirping.

"Oh it's such a.... horrible morning I want to go back to bed" I looked at my clock and saw it was already eleven, I grabbed my bag and put in a sketch book, pencils, pens, erasers and a lighter. I went into my wardrobe and grabbed high waist skinny jeans and a tank top with a shirt that I left unbuttoned and trainers.

I grabbed my bag and put it over my shoulder creeping down the stairs seeing my dad on the couch with empty beers around him and a half fulled bottle in his hand which he dropped and spilled onto the floor, I bit my lip and went into the kitchen grabbing a bag and started cleaning up, I got the mop and cleaned the spill, I heard a groan behind me and turned around to see my dad waking up, he grabbed his head as his eyes started adjusting to the light as I kept cleaning.

"Y/N love, I would've cleaned up" I looked at him and shook my head
"No, go to bed its eleven how long were you up?" He laughed and started trying to think back while I put the bag near the bin.
"Around five a.m, you going to hang with those boys again?He stood up and looked over his shoulder while I nodded
"mhm i like them boys, especially whats his name, Chris?" I nodded while he looked proud of himself for remembering the boy's name
"Dad, I was thinking about getting a summer job y'know at the diner, do you think that would be good pocket money?" Dad sighed and looked at me
"your fourteen, you shouldn't need to get a summer job"
"But-"
"No buts, I'm searching for another job, and I've got an interview next week so I'm going to sober up, get better, and we'll be getting money in no time" I nodded and handed him a wet cloth and put it back in the sink, Dad ruffled my hair which I giggled at before running upstairs to bed.

I grabbed my bag and left the house walking down the road smiling and saying 'hi' to the passer-bys, I took a turn and started walking up the hill to the treehouse, soon coming to a stop at the bottom hearing music coming from inside and Teddy screaming most likely from cards, I climbed up and done the secret knock hearing things moving until the door opened.

"Hello pussies" the boys smiled and laughed Gordie helping me up
"Y/N!" They all shouted, I covered my ears and laughed seeing them put the table back
"Watcha playin?" I said peeking over Teddy's shoulder, my eyes went up and met Chris's blue ones, I scrunched up my nose and he laughed
"Black five" my adrenaline started running as i got giddy
"Deal me in"  i sat to the side and looked at Gordie who was reading a magazine , I looked down and saw the first card was a 4 of clubs, I looked at my cards and placed a 6, and it went round

"Does anyone know when Vern will be here?" I asked putting down a black five
"Pick up 5" Chris swore and picked up 5, after a couple of seconds I heard someone knocking, I pointed at Chris's fag packet and he handed me one, I lit it as I heard a shout from below me
"Come on guys I can't remember the secret knock" we all looked at each other
"Vern" I stood up and grabbed my cards letting the boys pick up the table as I inhaled the smoke then exhaled, I helped Vern up and heard a small 'thanks'.

I sat back down as Vern started rambling about something, he started huffing so we kept playing the game till he caught breath, Teddy put down a card then I put down an ace
"I'm out also I'm changing it to spades" The boys groaned as Teddy stuck his middle finger up at me and i slapped him over the head

"okay guys your not gonna believe this so i ran all the way home" I smirked and started singing off pitch with boys
"I rAn AlL tHe WaY hOmE" Gordie started doing the tune with Teddy while me and Chris kept singing
"Okay forget it i don't have to tell you nothing" I looked at Verns pleading face and stopped
"Come on guys, what is it Verno" Verno thanked me then started talking again
"Great you won't believe this sincerely" I started off this time by singing the tune
"I ran all the way home! ba da ba bum! to say im sorry sorry" me and Chris grabbed our fags and used them as mics while I leaned back
"Screw you guys forget it " I stopped and felt bad not realising I was slipping till I fell and let out a small yelp, the boys looked at me and laughed , I glared then smiled
"What is it?" I said sincerely looking at Vern
"Can you guys camp out, I mean if you tell your folks your we're gonna tent out in my backfield?" I thought about it for a second
"I think so, but my dad's been on a mean streak lately hes been drinking alot" my breath hitched and i looked at Chris with a sorry face which he shook his head at
"You got to you wont believe this sincerely can you Gordie, Y/N?"
"Yeah probably" i looked up from my sketchbook and shrugged
"Dad's been having a hard time so maybe"
"So what you pissing and moaning about Verno?" I looked at Teddy and glared giving him a warning look

"You guys wanna see a dead body" we all stopped laughing and my heart stopped I looked at Chris who looked at me before I looked at Vern sitting cross legged by Chris's knees with him playing with my hair

"Well I was the under the porch-" We all knew what Vern meant, around last year Vern had saved up his pocket money and buried them under his deck he even drew a map for them, until his mum came in and cleaned his room the map with it, he had been digging up the area under his porch he'd been digging for 9 months, NINE MONTHS! He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It turns out while he was down there he had heard his brother and one of Ace's guys talking about how they boosted a car and ended up around the back Harlow road and found a body that was most likely Ray Browers, one day he went out picking berries and no one saw him again

"Are you sure it would be Ray Browers how would he even get up the back Harlow road that's a long way" I looked at Gordie and caught a glimpse of my hair in a plait I looked up at Chris who had turned around to talk to Gordie

"He probably followed the tracks" he looked back down at me and smiled and I stuck my tongue out which made him laugh
"Yeah Yeah! And then the train must've came along and el-smacko" I nudged Teddy and shook my head at him.

"hey guys guys i bet you anything if we find him we'll get our faces in the paper" i looked at Chris and thought
"Yeah we'll be on TV!" Teddy yelled
"Yeah! we'll be heroes" Chris shouted agreeing with him
"I don't know, Bill would know I found out"
"He's not gonna care Vern cause it will be us that found him and not Bill and Charlie's boosted car" I said leaning back more
"They'll probably pin a medal on you Vern" I looked at Chris and caught on to what he was doing"
"You really think so?" I nodded
"Yeah everyone will adore you Vern" I said with a laced voice trying to sound sweet, his smile fell and he started asking more questions
"What will we tell our folks" I sat up but Chris pushed me back and kept playing with my hair
"Exactly what you said we'll tel our folks we are camping in your backyard, you tell your folks your camping out at Teddy's and that we are going to the races in the morning, we're set till the afternoon" I said yawning at the end
"Man that's a plan and a half" Chris high fived me
"But if we find a body up the back Harlow road they'll know we weren't at the races we'll get hided" I looked at Vern and thought for a moment until Teddy chimed in
"They won't care"
"I mean I'll get hided anyway, but hell its worth the hiding!" I stopped for a minute and went over to Vern and sat next to him
"Come on Vern" I said pushing him softly by the shoulder
"Come on Verno" all the boys started joining in getting closer before we all piled on top of him and the boys started giving him a noogie
"Alright"
"Yes!" I smiled at the boys and wondered why I wasn't feeling as happy and excited as they were maybe because we were going to see a dead body if we found it?
Maybe because the boys wanted to find him to get on the Tv?
Or maybe just because Ray Browers was my cousin.
