Lion

I awoke before the sun had fully set. I couldn't even remember falling asleep. I slowly made my way to the window, messing with my long brown hair as I did, and looked across the horizon at the red sky. I suddenly realised that I was in Phil's room, I'm suprised I didnt know earlier becuase the covers were a dead-givaway, the only thing missing was his lion toy. I heard the door open and close quietly, I turned to see Phil sneaking into the room equipped with non other than Lion.
"Phil?" my voice startled him and he dropped Lion straight on the floor. He scooped him up really quickly and his face was pure scarlett
"um.. whats up?" He tried to keep his voice light but it came out rushed
"why are you sneaking into the room holding Lion" I said as I sat down on the bed
"um.. its kinda embarrasing" is Phil blushing again? its so adorable.
"you can tell me" I gave him an encouraging smile as he sat down next to me
"ok, I can't sleep without Lion" he said hanging his head a little as if he was ashamed "I know, I'm 26 I shouldnt be having toys at my age"
"I think its sweet" I said knocking into him slightly "it makes you who you are" He smiled up at me when I said that. "still doesnt explain why you were sneaking in?"
"oh ye... I didnt want you or Dan to know so I was trying to sneak him back in before either of you guys woke up"
"how'd that work out for ya?" I giggled "that reminds me" I rushed off the bed, almost tripping over my own feet, and grabbed my bag. "here" i said holding out a lion bar.
"where'd you get this?" he said as he gingerly took it off me
"I put it in my bag to eat for dinner along with some sandwhiches... which we can have at lunch if you want?"
"sure" he said, snapping his lion bar in half. "here" he said giving me one half.
"thanks" I smiled taking the half off him, we started talking about bands and found a lot in common. We both loved muse and our favouirte My Chemical Romance song was famous last words.

We must of been laughing a little too loudly because a grumpy Dan stormed into our room
"guys, why?"
"what ever do you mean Daniel?" I said, supressing a giggle
"its 5am" he moaned
"will this cheer you up" i said reaching out of my bag and getting a 'big bag' of malteasers. His face broke out into a grin and he rushed up to give me a massive hug, knocking me over onto the bed and leaving me with laughing fits.
"do you always carry chocolate in your bag?" Phil laughed
"wont leave home without them" my smile suddenly faded at the word 'home', I wondered how my parents were doing... is it the same in stoke? I tried to hide my thoughts and carried on "and skittles"
"I have skittles in my mouth wanna taste the rainbow" Phil said adding an innapropriate wink at the end, forcing everyone to burst out laughing.
After a while, Dan left saying he was hungry (even though he'd already eaten all of his malteasers), leaving just me and Phil. I could tell he was tired and he soon fell asleep holding me to his chest. It was comfortable and warm, I would miss these arms if I ever became on of those things outside. I was falling asleep when a sudden pain erupted from my foot, I screamed but made it muffled as I didnt want to wake Phil.
I unwrapped myself from his arms making him move and mumble in his sleep, and dashed to the kitchen (well hobbled). I scanned the drawers looking for a bandage, and finally found one.
"yes" I whispered, holding it up triumphantly. I prepared for the worst, but on close examination it didnt look bad. The bite was still visible but it wasn't red or swollen like it is in most zombie films.
"you finally out of bed?" Dan burst out, making me fall over, I quickly placed the bandage in my pocket and Dan ran round to help me up "Was that your revenge for me unintentionally hitting you with a lamp?"
"maybe" Dan said making the word last longer than it should of been, and I hit his arm.
"so, I was coming here to make some breakfast. I was going to ask if any of you guys wanted any but I didnt want to disturb you just in case you were up to stuff"
"DAN!!" I said, my eyes widening "Nothing happened"
"I was only joking, lighten up" he smiled.
I opted for lion cereal whilst Dan had some country crisp. There was a silence whilst eating it, but it wasn't an awkward one.

Phil finally awoke and shuffled into the room, yawning.
"good sleep?" I asked with a smile, he just nodded and went to the kettle. He flicked the switch on and suddenly frowned as nothing happened "dude, zombie apocolypse remember?" I laughed
"oh ye" he said and instead went for some cereal
"god, I'm a right mess not being able to drink tea" I blurted out
"proper british person here Phil" Dan mocked
