Phil's Kid

Ch-67-Night-?

. . .

"Do you want to talk about what happened?" I asked Karter. "I mean, you don't have to wither if you don't want to." I say. "Maybe tomorrow, or something." Karter says. "Ok." I nod my head.

. . .

"So are you going back to school tomorrow?" I ask. "Yeah, I wasn't hurt that bad." "You were bleeding." I argue back, not yelling.

"How can your mom possibly let you go back to school tomorrow?" I ask in disbelief. "Well I am missing half a day today, so I can't really miss tomorrow." "Yes, you can." I say. "You were hurt, you deserve a break." "I already rested today." "Is that what your mom told you?" I ask Karter. Karter stays quiet.

I sigh. "Karter, if you want to stay home tomorrow I'm sure shell understand." I say. "She has a point, and besides I get to see you tomorrow." Karter says. "Yeah, and then I can check your injuries." "I'm fine." Karter says again. "Alright." I say, still planning to check tomorrow.

Then we go back to playing Minecraft, we talk here and there, but mostly we're just quiet. It's not a bad or awkward quiet, it's like a break from everything that's happened today.

. . .

"Alex!" I heard someone from downstairs call my name. "Shoot." I said. "What?" Karter asked. "I have to go." I said. "Oh, ok." "Yeah." I said upset I had to go. "I'll see to you tomorrow." I said. "See you." "Bye, stay safe." I said before hanging up and heading downstairs.

"Alex!" I heard my name being called again. "Yeah?" I poked my head into the kitchen. "Oh your here already." Mom smiled at me. "Well, dinner is ready." She said. "Thanks." I noted my head. I left the kitchen and sat down at the table across from dad. Mom came out shortly after with dinner. "Thank you." Me and dad said at the same time. "Oh hush, you helped too." Mom said to dad. "Thank you." I said turning to dad who just nodded his head.

"So how's Karter?" Mom askes. "Karter's good, apparently they're going back to school tomorrow." I said. "Really?" "Yeah, I was surprised too." I said.

"And Richard got expelled, so that's fun to..." I said. "He what?" Dad askes surprised. "Please, he's not bad, he just had to get the key back to free Karter from the closet." I defender Richard. "Apparently to do that he did have to start a fight... but he ended up in worse condition." I said. I hope I can still hang out with him...

"Oh." Mom and dad both said. "At least he did it for a good cause?" Mom said loping at dad. "I guess." Dad said shrugging his shoulders. That's a good sign, I hope.

"Um." Now was the more difficult question. "Can I have my binder back tomorrow?" I asked. "I guess so, it has been two days after all." Mom said then turned to dad so he could confirm. "Yeah, it has been two days." Dad confirmed. "Yes!" I yelled a little too loud. I quickly cover my mouth. "Sorry." I said my hands covering my mouth making my voice muffled. Mom and dad looked at me, then started laughed, I joined in the laughing too.

. . .

Finally! I get my binder back tomorrow! I laid down in bed. I'm way too excited to sleep now. I grabbed my phone and opened discord.

Alex
- guess what?

I messaged someone. After a minute they replied.

Wilbur
- what?

Alex

Wilbur

Alex
- see you

Wilbur
- one more thing

Alex

Wilbur
- and be safe

Alex
- oh shut up

I smile to myself and open twitch on my phone. I go to Tubbo's stream, which he just started, and watch it. Wilbur was right, shortly after I started watching Wilbur joins in with Tubbo too.

Out of curiosity, I go to Tommy's steam to see what he was up to. As soon as I click on it I cover the speaker as his shouts come out of it. Yeah, no. Not right now anyway. I'm trying to sleep, not stay up all night. How can he stay up so late to stream anyway? I go back to Tubbo's stream and continue watching. Yeah, these guys are just chilling right now. Not screaming.

. . .

When I start to feel sleepy I type a message in chat.

- tired now bye

There are so many messages flying by I wonder if Tubbo or Wilbur will see. Oh, wait I don't think they know my Twitch user. Oh well. I turn off my phone and place it next to my clock and cuddle up I'm my blankets. I think about how the feeling of the binder would feel on me. It feels like it's been forever, and I can barely remember what it feels like. All I know is that it will be right, and I can't wait.
