A new start

RUN.RUN. FASTER. I was running away from that monster chasing behind me both a broken glass bottle it was endless. I tried screaming but nothing was coming out.

BEEP BEEP BEEP (the alarm)

Although it was just a nightmare I woke up sweating with my heart thumping quickly. it was 10 am. I changed and headed downstairs. There was a good smell since I woke. I was hoping to see Theo but it was none other than Kyle.

"Good Morning," I said 

"Morning" Kyle replied

This is so awkward. "Where's Theo at?" I asked to break the silence

"He went out with me for some important meeting he had. Here have some Bacon with eggs" He said as served me as I sat down. 

I looked at him directly in the eye. Woah he has some really pretty eyes. I felt my face turn hot but I feel like I shouldn't do too much.

"T-thanks," I said 

"So I've heard you were stuck in a hell hole but now you're saved"

"yeah pretty much it was the worst," I said. why am I replying to him i barely know him. I guess I'm a sucker for looks just like I was for Shayla. we didn't talk much

"What have you so lost in thought?" 

ah I was distracted. "nothing I was just thinking of someone from back at my home town" was all I said

"Were they special to you?" He looked straight at me

He had a curious look on his face 

"Yeah really special. She was the best." I said

"Do you wanna see her again"

"that's not possible anymore I ruined things" I looked at the time we were talking for quite a while we were both done eating

"Thanks for the food Kyle it tasted great." I smiled and he smiled back. he's good at cooking honestly. I walked away and headed to shower.

(Kyle) She's an interesting person I wonder what is in store for the future. I should try getting closer to her and see for myself.

I took a hot shower it's been so long since I've felt at peace I said. I should become a better person instead of thinking about the past. I got out and heard Theo's voice. I couldn't help but be nosy. 

"It's almost my little sister's birthday.." he said i couldn't hear him well i tried to get closer when *Bump* I looked up and it was Kyle. Shit, I've been caught.

"Whatcha doing sneaking around suspiciously" He looked at me suspiciously

"nothing i just wanted to surprise my brother" I tried to walk away

"nuh-uh not so fast Ciel" he grabbed me and dragged me to the living room in front of Theo.

"I caught her sneaking around the corners," Kyle said as he laughed a bit. I looked away for a moment. I felt so embarrassed. 

"She'll be in your hand now brother-in-law," Kyle said as he walked away

"What were you sneaking around for hmm little sis" He patted my head

"I wanted to surprise you that's all!" I wonder what will happen i only heard my name.

"Is that so, i went out to a meeting but on the way back I got you something" He held out a nice white teddy bear. it was cute. 

"You're the best but you don't need to get me stuff having you around is enough"

"You're so sweet, Ciel. I know I don't spend time at home much but I want to recover the time I've lost." 

"You are busy and about to get married so give it you're all with Becca living with you is the best gift I could ever have," I said.

"Soo when is the wedding??" I teased

"It's on June 19th" 

"A long time ahead I said since it's still winter"

"Yeah I can't wait but she chose the warm season" his eyes shone when he talked about her. I wonder when I'll be able to reach this point in life. or will I ever? I feel gloomy.

"Uhm Theo I have a favor to ask. Can you teach me to drive?" I asked I really wanted to start learning. I asked but something felt off.

"I can't but Kyle can I'm sorry but I'm busy all week," he said looking away suspiciously.

"Isn't Kyle also busy??" I asked but something seriously felt off.

"Fine I'll take lessons with him but can you make some time this week?"I asked

"Of course," he said 

I got up from the couch and walked outside to get some time to myself. I took a small walk around the neighborhood thinking about how much this has changed this year. I'm almost turning 17 in a couple of days. I walked around and saw a black kitten in a box it was so small and frail. I checked if it was still alive and it was "Poor thing all abandoned In the cold. I should take it home" I took it home and brought it to my room.
