A/N: Hello again! Well, we seem to be back again with another chapter! Considering how it's ice cold outside, I haven't been able to do much of anything today. So, I think this is the perfect opportunity to write another chapter! I hope it'll be a decent one! With that, I think we can get started now! ;)
Chapter 16: Early Morning Ideas
Kevin's PoV:
I've been laying in bed for the past half hour. I've only had a few hours of sleep, which is more than what I was expecting to get. The only thing I keep thinking about right now, is what happened last night, and the need to try again today—preferably now.
The fact that Marv is still asleep, is giving me a green light to try and do this again. Only, I think I'll drop trying to do last year's tricks, and just leave the house. Since it's daylight out, I have more of an opportunity to try.
It won't be so scary, travelling up the highway now. I just didn't want some creep pulling over, wanting to give me a lift last night… I definitely didn't want to be in an even worse predicament than I'm in now, and I still don't!
I look up at the bed beside me, seeing the backside of Marv, laying on said bed. I can hear him lightly snoring, which is good, because I wouldn't have been able to sleep, if he sounded like a locomotive…
Laying here, for what feels like forever, I debate whether or not I should try this now. Who knows? This could be my last chance… I pull myself up from the floor, feeling tired. I just want to go back to bed, but my yearning to go back home, is stronger than my need to sleep.
I make a quick trip to the washroom, before attempting to exit the room again. If I remember correctly, Marv didn't lock the bedroom door last night. I'm correct, when the doorknob turns with ease, opening the door.
I quickly look behind me one more time, seeing that Marv is still asleep. I slip into the hallway, closing the door behind me. Tiptoeing, I make my wake down the hall. Just as I reach the stairs, I remember my outerwear is still in Marv's room.
This happened to me last night, and I didn't go back to retrieve them. I'm debating whether or not I should now or just leave them. After all, it'll still be pretty chilly outside. A new idea forms: Instead of avoidably waking up Marv, I'll just use one of his coats!
I believe there's a downstairs closet. His coat might be a little big on me, but it's better than nothing! I just can't believe I didn't think of that last night… With the new idea in my mind, I make my way downstairs.
Once I reach the downstairs, I look around, desperate for a coat closet. That's when I properly collect my thoughts, and see the coat closet right by the front door. The closet door is on the wall to my left, facing the walkway into the house.
With my heart racing, I rush for said door. I open it, which reveals only two kinds of coats: a Spring/Fall jacket, and a Winter coat. Trying to decide which coat would work best for me, is wasting time. I decide to grab the Winter coat, since it'll keep me the warmest.
I throw on the coat over last night's clothing, before rushing to put on my boots. I unlock the door and race outside. The cold November air punches me in the face. If it's cold on my face, I'm certainly glad I have this coat on. Even if it is a little oversized…
Thinking hard, I make my way to the end of the driveway. I look both ways down the road, and see nothing but fog in each direction. My hopes begin to falter, because I can't see what's down each end of the road.
It was so pitch black last night, I couldn't see anything then, either! The fact that it's foggy, when I had my hopes up, is kind of crushing. Though, I decide to go the way I did last night, and hope there's going to be no one to stop me, except for anybody, who's willing to help me…
To be Continued…
…
A/N: Well, I think that's it, for now, guys! I still quite haven't decided what's going to happen… I kind of just wrote this, hoping for the best. What do you think will happen next? Any ideas would be great! Well, I don't know when the next time I'll be able to update will be, but we'll be on Kate and Marv's memories again! ;) I don't think there's anything else to say! Toodles, for now (lol)! :D
