AN: Hello! I know you all missed me. Well, swim season has officially started and I am doing more swimming than I ever thought possible. At the moment I have a Romeo and Juliet vocab list as well as an entire Trig chapter review packet to do. But… I am procrastinating.
This prompt came from Princess in the Pea. Thanks! If anyone else would like to add a possible prompt, just drop me a review or PM.

"Come on Chris! Just open up a little bit. I'm not asking you spill every personal thing about your life, just crack your mouth open a little bit and give us our answers…And wipe that smirk off your face! What could possibly be humorous about this situation?"
It is a bit ironic really. The sisters continuously try to get me to speak and tell them about the future. They think that the truth is the most important thing that I can give to them. I know better.
"We just want you to talk to us Chris. Let us see if we can trust you."
I know that most of what people say is worthless and meaningless. I know that most of the time people will talk just to simply hear themselves talk. The sisters don't realize that it is impossible to learn if you can trust someone by talking to them.
"You're too quiet Chris, unless you're talking about demon hunts. It's not healthy."
Funny how those words mirror the sentiments of my own sister. She thought that I was too quiet for my own good; that my silence would destroy me. How wrong she was. Can nobody see that it is my ability to actually listen that saves me and those around me every day?
I have chosen to forego my mouth in favor of my ears. This has given me the ability to hear a lie… a truth… a lead… even a threat.
"How can we help you if you won't tell us the truth Chris?"
The truth is… I have the power to turn your entire world upside down with my words. I choose not to do that for the betterment of all.
In a perfect world, every one would speak their mind and proclaim every truth from the tops of buildings. In reality, silence is golden.
