" Jonathan is my real name" he said opening my window as I sat on the edge of my bed " You're the only one I've told my real name to" he smiled lightly at me as he crawled out my window, my heart skipped as I smiled, until next time Jonathan.

I sat in the grass as the snow fell lightly around me, I pulled my legs to my chest and wrapped his hoodie round my body staring at the pound and the snowflakes vanishing as they touched the water and bonding together becoming one.
" Why do you look so sad" Tyler said sitting beside me I raised a brow at him and he chuckled " What Craigs asleep I know he normally talks to you but I saw you out here not moving so what's up" Tyler asked picking some snow up and tossing it into the water.
I haven't seen Del-Jonathan in a month and my hearts aching for him " Just couldn't sleep" I lied laying back and watching the small white flakes descending to me " Yeah well you seem distant right now" Tyler raised a brow turning his head towards me.
" Yeah im deep in thought" I spoke half truth in my words " About your past" he spoke softly and I nodded my head lying to keep my love a secret from the guys until the time is right " Well I know you think it's shitty but I'm glad for it because I met you" Tyler said making me smile.
After a while of laying on the ground feeling the snow land on my body I felt arms picking me up I shifted more comfortably as I was carried.
I felt my bed under me and a blanket being placed over my body " Goodnight Evan" Tyler spoke in a whisper as I heard his footsteps walking away and my door slowly close as I drifted to sleep.

" GET UP" I heard someone yell and I opened my eyes slightly feeling a body crash down on mine as I groaned " GET. UP" I heard Craig say and I turned looking up at him " Im up" I said in a husky voice rubbing my eyes.
" Get dressed I want to go out today" Craig said getting off me and running out of my room and I sat up stretching as I uncovered myself and walked to my closet picking out new clothes to wear.
We were walking through the city and I kept looking over my shoulder I had a bad feeling about something but I couldn't figure out why or what is was but I was on edge.
" Ohhhh" Craig yelled running into the candy shop and grabbing some, I stood at the door way looking around and examining every person that walked in until I saw Craig come out shoving chocolate in his mouth and I chuckled lightly at him.
" Wa-nt s-some" He said mouth full holding it out and I shook my head pulling a lollipop from his bag, unwrapping it and sticking it in my mouth running my tongue over it trying to keep my nerves calm but I was extremely on edge.
" We should be heading back" I said seeing the sun setting " Its fine just a little longer" he said and I huffed running my hand under the hoodie feeling my knife, I put my hands in my pockets as we walked and the light started fading more and more.
I heard a thump and I turned my head " What" Craig whispered and I held a hand up switching my defenses on as I walked to the corner looking to see no one I held a hand up motioning for Craig to stay as I crept into the alley.
I found nothing and shook it off as I was just being over paranoid, I made my way back to Craig " Just a damn mouse" I said and he chuckled at me " Oh so scary it's going to take our cheese" he said laughing but I kept my defenses up as we walked.
" Ok fine we can go back" Craig huffed seeing my expression " You forget I go out at night it's not safe" I said as we turned heading back towards the house " Then why do you go out" he asked rolling his eyes " You know why" I said and he stayed silent.
My ears perked at each sound I heard as I listened closely not wanting to run into trouble as I took slow breath my hand not leaving my knife under my shirt as we walked the now dark streets, eyes searching the darkness.
" Calm down ok I know you won't let anything happen" Craig broke the silence and I stared at him " That's why I'm on edge if something happens I need to be ready" I said and he shook his head " Ops forget sorry" he said in a small chuckle.
We kept walking and I felt the air thickening as the hairs on my neck stood up and I took a close look around seeing no one was there yet I knew someone was and it wasn't delirious which made me swallow nervously.
" Were talking the woods" I said grabbing his hand " What why isn't that worse" Craig whispered as we walked into the trees " I don't want to go straight home since it's dark" I said walking through the woods carefully.
We heard a leaf russle and we both spun around to see a man holding a sword staring at us, I pulled my knife out that delirious let me keep and pushed Craig behind me " V-Vanoss" he spoke softly from behind my arm.
The guy chuckled before his eyes went wide and I heard something wiz past us and Craig squealed gripping onto my arm, a few more men dropped out of the trees running towards us and I held the knife tighter.
A body rushed in front of me arms to the side as the men dropped and I smiled at the red jacket as he took out the other two men in the blink of an eye.
He turned and I saw blood all over him " Craig it's alright" I spoke softly and I felt him squeeze tighter " Its Delirious" I whispered in his ear as his grip loosened and his eyes widened " Remind me never to piss you off" He chuckled nervously.
" Go home now and stay out off the streets at night from now one" Delirious spook sternly and I raised a brow at him he never told me to go home or stay home " What's wrong" I asked taking a step to him but he held a hand up.
" Go home and stay home I have to go" he said and vanished " Holy shit is he a witch" Craig asked and I shook my head " No he's just that good" I said taking Craigs hand and walking towards the house feeling the thick air was gone.
What the hel was that all about he sounded nervous and pissed but why and why didn't he tell me why didn't he let me go with him like normal when I see him at night, something's wrong.
