I decided to write this story based on what happened the other day when I had my friend round and the same thing happened to me except I wasn't alone. I hope you like the story.


Drake smiled as the door shut behind his parents and Megan. Megan was staying at a friends tonight and mum and dad were going out for some kind of special work meal evening thing.

Drake wasn't really paying attention to mum and dad's instructions.

Josh was working at the premiere till six which gave Drake at least half an hour on his own.

He walked up to his room and climbed the ladder to his bed. After ten minutes of sitting there with his guitar he gave up. For some reason Drake just couldn't manage to think of a new song.

His band was playing at a concert tomorrow night and they only needed one more song to perform.

Drake put his guitar down and looked at the time. Seventeen minutes to six.

That meant that Josh would be home soon. Drake knew that he'd never be able to write a new song once Josh came home. It would become an evening full of video games, magic and stupid jokes. There would be no peace in the house. Although Drake would admit that it could be worse. Mum and dad could have got some one to baby sit them.

Drake climbed down the ladder, grabbing his guitar before walking out of his room. He headed down the stairs and in to the living room. He found his phone laying on the sofa with the note that mum and dad had given him.

Drake turned on the TV and sat down on the sofa he place his guitar down resting it against the TV and re-read the note that his parents gave him before they left to see if it mentioned any thing about what Drake was supposed to eat for dinner that night.

It read;

Dear Drake

We should be home at some time around eleven. Ask Josh if he will cook dinner for the two of you when he get's home from work later or you can make your own dinner before he comes in.

If you do make your own dinner then please do not break any thing, set fire to any thing or wreck any thing in the kitchen. Drake also remember that if you do use the oven to cook your dinner remember that it will be hot when you go to eat it.

Have fun and don't go to bed late tonight even though it's Thursday. You still have school tomorrow.

Love mum and dad.

Great that meant that they would be having some thing strange to eat again like the crazy things that Josh always cooked.

It was either that or Drake cooked his own dinner which would, as mentioned in mum and dad's letter, become a disaster.

Maybe Drake could think about this while he drank some thing.

Reluctantly Drake stood and walked in to the kitchen. His mother's beloved kitchen.

He opened the door to the refrigerator and looked for any thing that he would like to drink, however he couldn't find any thing.

Meaning that they needed to go shopping and buy some more drinks that Drake actually liked.

Drake took a glass out of the cupboard and walked over to the sink turning on the tap, watching as the clear liquid flowed in to the clear glass. Drake turned the tap of when he thought that there was enough water in the glass.

He lifted the glass to his lips before starting to drink the contents of it.

Drake didn't get very far as a loud noise made him drop the glass he was holding.

He felt his airways close as he started to choke on what he had been drinking.

Panic rose up inside Drake as he felt him self choking. He heard many stories of people who die choking. This hadn't happened for ages. The only other time this had happened was when he was a child.

Choking was a horrible feeling and it was one that Drake hated as he was sure that many other people hated it too. Just the fact that you could die from it was enough to cause panic in Drake.

Drake's panic increased soon enough though when a sudden realisation hit him.

He was alone in the house. There was no Josh, mum, dad or Megan to help him, it was just him.

Him in the house, choking, alone.

Drake had never been more scared than he was now.


I'll update in the next few days, please review. Hope you like the story so far.
