Chapter 25
It shouldâve been like another day, but it wasnât. No day was ever normal, hell it would be boring if it was.
I was in this big house but there was a catch. I was all by myself. Not sure if they wanted to leave me alone or just forgot about me I decided to catch up on a few notes from school. The silent house mirrored my happiness and for once I wasnât thinking, just doing.
Rummaging through the pile of homework that I had to do I made a start. Typing, writing and adding a few bits here and there, but time flew fast until my stomach told me that I had done enough.
After hours of work it was evident that I needed to restore the energy lost by my brain thinking, so while I made my way to the kitchen my thoughts begun to drift to last night.
We shared a kiss; yes it was beautiful and lovely however there is always the other side. I was hurting, maybe I wasnât showing it by repeatedly saying that my bones were broken but they were.
Just like you canât see how damaged a personâs soul is, is what I was trying to do. It worked, nobody noticed the scars, bruises and pain because there were painkillers to help save the day.
As I made my way towards the kitchen the doorbell rung, now knowing what happened a few weeks ago and all I shouldâve not answered the door but hell, it might just be the postman delivering a parcel. After all not everything had to be related gang members.
Cautiously walking to the door I opened it slightly to reveal a man, in his mid-thirties standing looking a little angry while holding a gun in the other hand. Maybe everything related to Daniel has to be gang members. My eyes widened as I took a huge gulp,
âErr...hi,â I offered my hand, I know bad mistake but this guy kind of looked familiar, I just couldnât put my finger on it.
âWho are you?â his deep voice echoed, he raised a brow and shoved his gun back into his pocket when he realised my fear, at least this guy had some respect.
âUhm..err....Sidney?â I spoke confused, way to go Sid!
Heâs at Danielâs house, a girl opens the door to see and guy in his mid-thirties standing holding a gun in his hands and he asks who you are and thatâs all you say, way to go Sidney my mind shouted at my unconsciously.
âSo Sidney tell me, does Daniel Lockwood live here?â he asked, I nodded my head and at this he allowed himself into the house. Shocked and a little scared I step to one side, in he came and his posse behind him.
They were huge men, with moustaches and leather jackets; I had to contain myself from laughing because it looked like something out of a film.
However towards the end was a guy that looked like Daniel, he might not have looked exactly like him but I could see the resemblance or maybe I should stop comparing every guy to him.
âDaniel has another brother?â I asked myself aloud, the guy wiped his head round and observed me for a few minutes before sneering.
âNo, do I look like that idiot?â he burst out, âIâm way fitter, taller and popular,â at this I burst out laughing and couldnât stop. Soon the guy joined me and we stood there laughing for a good few minutes before stopping and staring at each other.
âIâm Dylan, Danielâs cousin,â he held out his hand, I shook it replying,
âWell nice to meet you, Iâm Sidney.â An awkward silence came over us and then my stomach rumbled loudly causing me to blush in embarrassment.
âI think we should go get something to eat,â he offered, nodding in agreement I followed him to the kitchen it was amazing how well he knew his way round this place as Iâve been here for a few days and still couldnât quite grasp itâs beauty and get my way round.
âYou know this place really well?â I asked him but we both knew it was more of a statement, a small smirk played on his lips as he answered,
âYeah I know Daniel, Luke and I would play around the house all the time,â he then looked away with the smirk gone replaced by a sad smile.
Upon reaching the kitchen I starting chopping up some vegetables and tried making pasta since it was the easiest thing I could cook.
After some time of chopping, slicing and putting it all together it actually smelled nice. I jumped up and down yelling,
âI can finally cook!â Behind me Dylan couldnât stop laughing at my silliness; once it was ready it poured it for the two of us and put the plates on the table.
âHope you like it,â he happily took the plate and took a bite my eyes watching his every movement, for a second he just chewed the food and then he started coughing.
âOh my days are you alright?â I rushed to get him a glass of water and he quickly took a gulp. Then he sat down and started smirking again, before laughing out loud once again leaving me confused,
âWhatâs so funny?â I asked a little annoyed that my pasta didnât turn out quite as nice as I expected it to.
âYour reaction,â he kept laughing, âI was only joking!â Then he set of laughing again and fell onto the floor. His laugh was so infectious I couldnât help but crack a smile.
Once he stopped laughing, he held out his hands for me to help him up, I looked at him incredulously. This guy was another thing, pulling him up after using all my weight I held the table for support, making eye contact we once again started laughing.
At the door stood Daniel sending us a glare, I looked down and we were still holding hands and at once I released them and stood in awkwardness because what he saw, when he saw was at the wrong time.
Oh shit, my timing sucks.
