As I got up and looked behind Miles I could see Flora standing there holding my moms hand staring at the two of us. Now because I'm a dipstick I am still lying on top of miles with my mother and Flora staring at us. "What are you two doing?" My mother asked me. I brush myself off as I stood up and I held my hand out from miles to take. "Nothing we were just I was just making sure that Miles was okay because he fell over" I lied. My mother looked at me disapprovingly and I felt like she knew that I was lying. Flora ran over to Miles hugging his legs dropping the doll she had in.

Miles picked her up giving her a proper hug before putting her down again and taking her hand. As for me I'm still at the completely awkward and dumb founded on what to do or say. I fell awkward and an easy but I didn't know why. Oh wait oh wait yes I do. It's probably because I haven't seen my mum in nearly 5 days and she is just staring at me like I'm some sort of abstract painting she doesn't understand.

I don't know what to do so I simply walk back inside shutting the door behind me. I walk up the stairs and into my room before also closing the door. I don't know if my mum came to see me for something, but if it was important I am sure she would Come knock on my door any minute now to ask me if I was okay.

I watched as Y/N walked back into the house closing the door behind her. I stood there awkwardly not knowing what to do so I walked past Kate who was staring at something but I took no notice and paid no attention. Me and Flora walked back into the house and into the living room where we saw Mrs.Grose making some sort of jelly sandwiches.

I don't think she realised that we were here until she put the plates on the tables and looked up to see me and Flora sat on the couch. She jumped back a little startled, and apologised after she realised it was us I'm not some random people who are just walked into the house. It was only until Flora looked sad that I realised she had left her doll outside on the floor in the mud by the pond. That fucking pond.

"Do you want me to come with you or can you do it yourself?" I asked. "I think I can do it myself "she said smiling at me. I smiled back as she walked out the door and back into the cold outside. I rested my head on my hand as I slowly began to take nipples of the jelly sandwich which was in front of me.

It had now been about 10 minutes and Flora was nowhere in sight. I began to worry a little but I shouldn't worry too much as she is a very independent little girl. She acts very responsible and very carefully for a girl her age and probably could outsmart me and anything really.

I didn't know if my mum What come into my room to make sure that I was okay or not. We haven't really talked in the past five days let alone the actual whole time we've been here together. It almost feels like I don't have a mum anymore, not that I wouldn't want a mum it's just that it doesn't feel like I've had one.

And as if on cue, three knocks came from the door. I side and got up from the window sill where I was and open the door and one free movement. "Mum?" " hi darling are you sure you're okay you didn't seem very in it when I saw you" "I'm sure" "well if you need anything I'll be here downstairs or in my room which is down the hall" I smiled and hooded as my mom walked away. She turned around as I began closing the door. "And darling!" She shouted. "Yes?" "I suggest you work things out between you and miles. I don't think we'll be here for much longer" I just nodded before closing the door and returning to my original place.

Flora came back with her doll which was covered in disgusting stuff like algae and mud. "Hey what's wrong?" I asked. It was a stupid question but I still wanted to ask. "I don't think she can be fixed miles...." she answered back quietly. "Sure she can! We just need her to be cleaned and washed!" She looked up "really?!" "Yeah! Of course!"

Time skip of an hour
Me and Flora came back into the living room as she watched tv with me. It was a new thing we got recently. I heard y/n come down the stairs and sit beside me on the couch. "Hey.." she said quietly. "Hey?" I said back. "So um. My mom said to me about the fact that we might not be staying here much longer so I came to apologise and make sure we're ok before I leave" I looked down and sighed. That's not what I wanted her to say. I wasn't even expecting that.

"Miles? Please say something..." she whispered. "I- I don't want you to go..." "neither do I. But my mom doesn't want to be and thinks you both are ok with education and everything.." "yeah but still... I want you to be here so I have an actual friend..." "Y-you do?" "Yeah. Your the only person I really talk to other then Flora and Mrs. Grose"

"I'm sorry..." She said wrapping her arms around me. "Y/n what are you doing?" "Hugging you" "oh" I said hugging back. "You think we could stay in touch?" I asked. "I'm not quite sure how" "letters? Phone number?" "Hmmm letters would be better so my mom won't know" she said thinking about it.

"Alright!" "Your going to need my address aren't you" she said giggling at the end. And because of the giggle I blushed and started stuttering like crazy. "Uhh y-yeah. I a-am aren't I?" I said turning a darker shade of pink. Y/n giggled again and wrote it down on the napkin that came with my sand which"

"I'm going to miss you when I go" "me too... I really don't want you to go..." "neither do I but I'll always be in here" she said touching my head. "And here" she said you touching my chest. I smiled and hugged her again. And for some reason we stayed like that until we fell asleep in each other's arms...

"I'm going to miss you..."
