I awoke and looked at my alarm clock. It said 11:30. Emma was alseep in her bed and so was Eliza. I quietly climbed out of bed and opened the door. I stood in the hallway and looked both ways. I wasn't supposed to be out of bed right now, and if I got caught I would get in trouble. I couldn't be within nurse range for a while, to avoid my new scar showing.
I walked to the pitch black rec room and sat on the sofa. I pulled my knees up to my chest and looked out the window. I saw nothing but the moon and the leave-less trees blowing in the wind. I closed my eyes and I realized, once again, I was crying and didn't notice it.
I closed my eyes again and must have drifted off into a very light sleep. I woke up when I felt someone put their arm around me. I gasped, and looked to my side, but I couldn't see anything because it was so dark.
"Kersey, it's me." the mysterious voice whispered. It was Graham.
"What are you doing up?" I asked.
"Thinking about you." he said. "I'm worried." he said, running his fingers through my hair.
I didn't know what to say; I was speechless. Then he leaned over and kissed me. It was almost magical. Then we heard a window break.
