But also. If you don't like to sleep then.. are you okay? Blink twice if you are being held captive and forced to not like sleeping by adults who think teens sleep too much.. Blink five times if you want to marry your bed.

I went to the messages on my phone and clicked on Ethan's contact. I smiled thinking to myself.. he's in a meeting, but I'm tired, and that is valuable information that I think he should know.

To Ethan> Ethan?

A few seconds later I got a reply making me smile that he answered me so quickly.

As I laid in the black silk sheets I let my entire body relax and my mind wonder to whatever it wanted to. I was surrounded by the scent of Ethan as I snuggled further into the bed. A mix of soap and cologne filled my nose making me oddly calm.

I know what you're thinking.

No. I do not have my face shoved into Ethan's bed taking deep breaths and moaning at the scent.

I cracked a smile at the thought and a small yawn left my mouth followed by me stretching out my legs, and letting my tired state take over.

I walked into the house with my cheeks drenched in tears, dropping my bag on the floor caring less about what happens to it. I ran into the kitchen seeing balloons everywhere and a big 'happy birthday' sign.

Sobs left my mouth one after another making it hard for me to breathe. The door opened and closed loudly letting me know it was just Lee following me in. He drove me home after I was givin the dreadful news.

"Mommy? Daddy?" I yelled looking around the house. I went to every room, there wasn't one space in that house that I don't check. "Mama? D-daddy?"

After endlessly looking for my parents my legs gave out and I collapsed on the floor into a ball of tears and hyperventilation. I felt big arms around me rocking me back and forth as the sobs stopped and the gasps for air started.

"Breathe baby, I need you to breathe." Lees voice calmly cooed me as he kissed my head. I slowly started to breathe in and out catching my breath letting the gasps for air be replaced by my sobs.

"There g-gone!" I exclaimed shutting my eyes tightly trying to transport myself to wherever it is that my parents have gone.
