Chapter five
I slide the drumsticks back into the side of the plastic kit and recline on the couch. “Well, that was interesting.”
Brendon continues to jump around, even though the game is back in its case and the controllers are being put away. Ryan tucks the guitar controller in the cupboard and slumps down next to me on the couch.
“What should we do now?”
Jon walks over to us and flops down on the couch, resting his head on my shoulder. “I’m tired.” He looks at me, wide eyes glistening in the artificial light.
“Me too,” Ryan sits up and looks at me. “Shall I go and grab some sleeping bags or something and we’ll just sleep on the living room floor?”
Brendon stops jumping and looks at him, nodding. “I’d feel a lot better if we were all together.” His tone suddenly sincere, he grabs Ryan’s hand and pulls him to his feet. “I’ll help you bring down the stuff.”
They scurry off up the stairs and I rest my head on Jon’s.
“This is all my fault.” I say quietly.
He lifts his head off of my shoulder and looks at me. “What do you mean?”
“I got you guys to go and look down the alley. He wouldn’t have seen us otherwise, and we wouldn’t be in this mess.”
Jon sits up and takes my hand in his. “Look, Spence. This is not your fault. Do not blame yourself for this.”
I let out a deep sigh and look down at our hands. “Thanks, Jon.”
“For what? Talking sense into you?” He laughs and raises one of his hands to pat me on the back. “Don’t be silly, Spencer. I’m your friend, it’s what friends do.”
I lean over and rest my head on his shoulder. It’s a very comfortable shoulder, soft and warm, cushioned. “I could fall asleep on you shoulder. You’re like a pillow.” I smile, tucking my feet up on the couch and closing my eyes.
Jon laughs. “Go for it.” He rests his head on mine, like I did before.
Suddenly, there is a loud thudding on the stairs and Brendon leaps into the room, pouncing and landing on the pillow that he is carrying. He is followed by Ryan, who is submerged in a sea of sleeping bags and pillows. He dumps them on the floor and stretches.
“Thanks for the help Brendon.” Ryan says sarcastically, rolls his eyes and laughs at the guy rolling on the floor with a little cushion that he had bombed down the stairs with.
We lay out the bedding, sleeping bags side by side, pillows aligned as though it were a military operation. I take off my jeans and climb into the sleeping bag wearing my shirt and boxers.
Brendon takes off his jeans and shirt and climbs into the sleeping bag next to me. Ryan and Jon follow suit and once in the warmth of the sleeping bag, my eyelids feel heavy and I struggle to stay awake.
We are pretty quiet until Brendon breaks the silence.
“Do you think he’ll come back?”
I sit up in my bag and look at Brendon. “I don’t think so.
The police know he’s around so I think he’s probably made a run for it.”
So naïve.
He pulls his sleeping bag up around his neck and blinks. “He might.”
Ryan rolls onto his side and places his hand on Brendon’s chest. “I won’t let him hurt you. Don’t worry.”
I lay back and stare at the ceiling, wondering what will happen if he does come back. I frown, and Jon laughs.
“What?” I turn to him.
“Your thinking face,” He smiles at me. “It’s really cute.”
We all laugh at this I feel myself blushing. I turn onto my belly and rest my head on my arms, looking at Jon. He always manages to make me smile, even though a murderer had tried to break into the house earlier and everything.
Ryan sighs and we fall into a comfortable silence, just the sound of our shallow breathing filling the room. Brendon sits up and looks around.
“Something feels odd.” He stares absently into space. “I feel like something’s going to happen.”
Just as he says this, my heart stops-
-There’s another slam on the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I actually cannot apologise enough for the gap between this chapter and chapter 4. I have had a load of crap going on in my life and unfortunateley I haven't been able to get onto my laptop.
Anyway, I hope this chaoter is OK, I like it.
A tad of cute Joncer at the end lol I was feeling like sticking a cute bit at the end, since shiz is about to go down.
But yeah, I ramble.
Unfortunately, you will have to wait a few days for the next chapter again, because I've been neglecting my other, big story and I kind of need to revise for exams and stuff...apologies, but if I carry on like this, bandom will destroy my grades ;)
BUT half term break is coming up soon and I'll have loads of time to write for you lovely people!
