Abandoned// Ethan Dolan

BANG BANG!!!

The sound of gun shots firing woke me up. What was going on? Was mum and dad okay?!
I slowly make my way downstairs, scared of not only the dark but because something bad was going on.

"Ethan!" I heard my dad scream my name, "Where's your brother?!" He asked, soon I heard the pattering of feet coming down the stairs.

Soon, mum appeared with tears streaming down her face; what was happening?! She ran over to Grayson and I and wrapped us up in a tight hug. "Ethan, Grayson! Oh my god, thank god you guys are okay!"

"M-mum what's going on?" I asked; terrified.

"Ethan, Grayson. Listen to me, make your way to the car now don't worry about your clothes. Your father and I will be right behind you." We both nodded and ran to the car.

Soon, mum and dad came running out and jumped in the car, "Mum, where are we going?" Grayson yawned, it was 1 o'clock in the morning.

"On an adventure. Now go to sleep, both of you. Remember that your father and I love you both very much." Mother spoke, turning to face us while dad started driving.

"We love you to, mummy." We both said before we both drifted off to sleep.

When I awoke, I wasn't in the car. Grayson was still next to me; sleeping. I gently shook him to wake him up and he slowly rubbed his eyes. "Are we there yet?"

"Grayson! We're not in the car and mummy and daddy aren't here!" I cried; we were somehow on a picnic bench.

"Mummy! Daddy!" Grayson cried out.

Our parents had abandoned us. They abandoned their seven year old sons....
