Do I only write when I'm hurt or something? Because I am REALLY sick right now.
Disclaimer: These things are a pain in the #$ but, yeah, no ownage.
Hmmm… I don't really know what to write about, so… Here goes.
Lo POV
In the blue glow of the TV, everyone's faces seemed like the zombies in the movie we were watching, except, unlike the monsters, our faces were full of expression, and we were sitting on a falling apart couch, spazzing over some cheap 1980s movie instead of eating random kooks' brains. I reached into the popcorn bowl, and felt my knuckles scrape the bottom of the bowl. We were already out of pop corn?!?!
"Reef! That was the last bag of popcorn! GOD! You are so frickin' annoying!" God, I sounded like Fin.
"Umm… Lo, there's like, six people here, so I wouldn't really go pointing fingers." Said Broseph quietly. I sighed. He was right, I was being irrational.
"Sorry Reef, this movie kinda has me on edge, and you know…" I trailed off, shrugging.
Reef nodded, smiled and started playing with Fin's hair, whose head was in his lap. She sleepily opened her eyes, glanced upward, and smiled ever so slightly. Then she let her eyes slowly close, crossing her remaining arm across her chest, the smile still lingering on her lips.
I propped my head up on my hand, squinting into the red glow of the alarm clock next to my bed. 1:00 am. Why couldn't I fall asleep? I had momentarily forgotten. Then it came flooding back to me in a scarily realistic fashion. The screams of my friends, the terrible zombies that had chased them until they had fallen with exhaustion, and finally me being the only one left, being helpless… I shook my head, trying to rid my mind of the memory. I sighed. It was no use. I went downstairs for a bowl of cereal, maybe something in my stomach might help. When I got downstairs, I found another person at the kitchen table. Broseph.
"Can't sleep?"
I nodded, but even as I did so, I felt my eyelids drooping. I sat down next to Broseph, and put my head in his lap, he started gently stroking my head. I smiled, knowing now I could fall asleep without any fear. I was safe. The nightmare would not come back, because as long as I was there with Broseph, nothing could harm me.
Is it me, or has Lo gotten a lot more deep? R&R please!
May the force be with you.
