Silent Prison (completed)

Please stay with me

"Blake can you help Alex and I with our math?" Ryan asks. I stopped working on my homework and turn to them. "Ok, let me see."

I look at their Pre-algebra and I remember I barely passed with a seventy-five percent. And that was only because Sky helped me.

"Sorry guys I am really bad at pre-algebra." "Then how are you in honors geometry?" Alex asks. "Sky helps me pass." "Really?" They ask in unison. "Yeah actually he still helps me every so often you two should ask him for help." "Okay see yea." They say while running to Sky's room.

I work on my homework for two more hours, trying to finish my English paper.

"Blake, it's time for dinner, come down." Matthew says. "Okay," I say getting up from my desk. As we walk down the hall I can se through the crack of Sky and Chris's door. Sky is lying on his bed fast asleep, curled up in a ball.
I sit in my usual seat by Alex and pot myself soon green tea. Everyone starts eating but I feel weird eating without Sky. Besides Sky really does need to eat more.

"Paula, Matthew, can I go wake up Sky?" "Sure, but why?" Matthew asks before putting some mash potatoes in his mouth. "Well, I have never eaten a meal without him, and he should eat." "Ok Blake, go get Skylar, but he told Paula he was really tired, about an hour ago." "Ok," I say getting out of my seat and walking out of the kitchen and up the stairs to Sky's room.

I open Sky's door he's still curled up in a ball, lightly snoring. I quietly walk to his bed, and pull his blankets up to his shoulders, I decide to let him sleep. I walk to his door and quietly open it, then I hear a silent bang coming from the wall.

I turn back and Sky is lying with his arms and legs spread out. I walk to his bed to see what's wrong. Sky moves his arms trying to cover his face, then he grabs his stomach, tears running down his face.

Then I realize what's happening. Skylar is having a nightmare or a memory. I know that I should wake him up, but I need to know what happens during these memories/nightmares.

Sky thrashes his head around and moves his lips inward. Sky starts to mouth some words, it takes me a while to figure out what he's saying, but I eventually get it.

"Blake where are you? I need you! Blake, please make them stop! They are hurting me. Protect meeee! Where are y..."
I shake Sky awake. Sky opens his eyes tears running down his cheeks. I wipe the tears from his eyes. I pull him into a hug, he hugs me back, tightly.

"Skylar, I'm here. It's ok your safe, your safe now," I say stroking the back of his head. "It's ok, Sky. I'm here now."
Sky crus into my short, I can feel my shirt becoming completely drenched. But I don't care. Sky grabs onto my shirt tightly, crying into my chest. After twenty minutes Sky stops crying.

"Sky," I say tipping his head up so he's looking at me. His eyes are red and glossy, his face is pink and slightly puffy from crying.

"I'm going to go downstairs and tell everyone you just bed to sleep, Chris will be here soon, ok." I get up but Sky grabs my hand.

"What?" Sky types on his phone,"Can you please spend the night here. I don't want to be alone." "Bur Chris will be here with you." "Please Blake." "Sky, Chris will be here, you won't be alone." "Please Blake. I need my older brother with me."
Sky's eyes are pleading, he's on the verge of crying again, if I say no. "Ok, let me just tell everyone you asked me to be in here." Sky nods and gives me a huge smile.

I rush back downstairs, everyone is putting their plates in the sink and clearing the table.

"Hey," I say to no one in particular. "Hey Blake, where's Skylar?" Ryan asks. "He's in his room, I'm going to sleep in there tonight, is that okay?" "Why, if you don't mind me asking?" Matthew says washing the dishes then placing them to dry on the drain broad next to the sink.

"Sky, just needs me, you know twin stuff." "Ok, will you be sleeping on the floor, or is Chris going to sleep in your room?" I look to Chris. "I'll sleep in Blake's room." He says.
Sky and u go to sleep the moment our heads hit our pillows.
