(Kais POV)
"I can keep a secret. You can trust me." I answered
Cole stared at me with a look I've never seen on his face before, distrust. Did he not trust me? Or was his secret so big he had to be 100% sure I wouldn't tell.
"I . . . uh . . . I'm . . ." Cole stuttered.
I looked at Cole. He didn't seem willing to tell his secret.
"Don't rush it Cole. Take your time." I said, attempting to calm him down from his nervous state.
Cole paused and thought for a moment. He looked up at the sky with a nervous expression.
"Tonight, before sunset. We come here. Promise me you won't tell anyone!" Cole said.
"I promise." I said immediately.
Cole started to walk back towards the monastery without another word. His new robe flowing around him like shadows in the night. It made him look eerie and foreboding, almost evil. I would never say that out loud though, through fear of him agreeing with me. Cole is the darkest out of our brothers, but he hides his emotions well. Keeps his fears in check and ignores the evil that may or may not be within him.
Cole was far ahead once I had snapped out of my thoughts. I ran after him.
"Cole, wait up!" I shouted
He stopped and waited for me to catch up. No sooner had I caught up with him, he started walking off again. I walked with him, back to the monastery in silence.
(Lloyds POV)
Cole could really make a mess. I thought he was the most organised since he was the leader and he has to orchestrate plans to perfection but, wow. The bedroom was a complete mess. The wall was on the floor and outside and . . . everywhere. Once Kai, Zane and Jay had gone out to find Cole I set out to clean up the room. Mum had helped for a bit but when it got late I told her to go to bed and carried on cleaning by myself.
Zane and Jay both came back around 2:00am, without Cole. Kai hadn't returned so we assumed he was still looking. Jay and Zane help me tidy up the rest of the mess and after told me to go get some rest.
"Get some sleep, we will wake you when Kai returns." Zane had said.
I didn't argue, I walked to my room and laid on my bed, waiting for sleep to take hold. I didn't. I stayed awake thinking about if Cole was okay. I wonder how he made so much of a mess? More importantly, why? Cole wouldn't wreak his room willingly. better try and sleep. I told myself. Slowly I drifted off to sleep.
I was woken a few hours later by Zane.
"Lloyd, Kai has returned. Cole is with him!" He said.
