Lifeless

Chapter 19.

I felt a tingle on my face and tried to shake it off. A giggled echoed lightly through the room making me open my eyes. Ally was smiling down on me with her finger softly running along cheek.

"Good morning." I groaned stetching out along the bed.

"Morning!" She chirped.

"Urgh! I forgot you're a morning person." Since she was sitting up against the headboard, I laid my head in her lap. She laughed at me as her fingers threaded through my short hair.

"We need to get up. We didn't have dinner. I don't know about you, but I'm staving!" She spoke softly. God, how I missed hearing her voice every morning.

"Okay. Let me shower. I'll meet you down stairs." I said, getting up from bed and heading towards the bathroom.

"Oh, I forgot. I have no extra clothes." 'Well shit.' I had forgot about her clothes while everyone was packing. She had been passed out and I just wanted to get the hell out of dodge.

"My bag is over there. I have some sweats or basketball shorts and t-shirts you can wear. I'm sorry I forgot. I was in such a hurry. Later we can see if Darcy has some extra clothes that will fit you or I can make a run to the store."

"You're clothes are fine for now. See you downstairs."

I shut the door to the bathroom and was quick to jump in the warm water.

Walking down the stairs I heard some hushed whispers. When I stepped into the living room everyone went quiet, that was when I realized that two extra people were in the house.

"Liam, Rodney!" I exclaimed. "Nice to see ya'll!

"Good to see you too man!" Rodney spoke first.

"Yeah, Ryan gave us a call saying ya'll needed some help, and here we are!"

Rodney and Liam were twins brothers and sometimes it was hard to tell them apart. Until I got to know them the only way I could tell them apart was because of their eye color. Rodney had blue eyes while Liam had green. They both had curly blonde hair and were short for men at about 5" 9'.

"Yeah we have a bit of a situation. Did he tell you about it?" I asked.

"No. All he said was it was urgent. So we took the next red eye and arrived about an hour ago." Liam informed us.

I nodded to myself. "Ally? Do you want to do the honors?" It was her story to tell but if she didn't want to then I understood.

She was sitting on the couch between my mom and sister looking at us all intently. I couldn't help but admire her in my clothes. She had chosed my gray sweat pants and red shirt. I was glad to see her finally wearing some color. She brought her legs up on the couch and crossed them.

"Yeah I guess. You see, my parents were murdered two years ago while I was visiting. They told me that if I said a word, got close to Cain again, or someone started getting suspicious then they would kill him and his family in front of me like they did my parents." She paused and looked over all the guys faces before she continued. They had put on their emotionless mask and were focuses solely on her words.

"Everything was going good until I agreed to have dinner one night with Cain. I didn't think one dinner would effect all of us until I woke up next morning. The flowers he had bought me were smashed alon with the base with a note on top of it. I ended up falling asleep from crying and I guess I had a bad dream that had me screaming. Cain heard from next door and found the note and now here we are." She finished slightly breathing harder.

"We still would of found out if it wasn't for that note though. Ryan called me before I heard her scream and he had a letter for me that she had actually sent two years ago that explained everything. He told me to get everyone and meet here." I added.
