The Cut

Searching for something to eat, i clumsily made my way through the house trying to make it to the kitchen in one piece. I didn't want to wake anyone, so i kept the lights off and stepped lightly. "Almost there" i whispered to myself. A sharp wave of pain shot up my leg and i fell to the floor. I bellowed in agony. So much for being quiet. The light flicked on and my brother walked in rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"What the fluff! What are you doing up? It's 1AM!" He asked.

"Never mind that, help me!" I didn't want to explain myself to him at the moment. I looked down and saw a stream of crimson blood flowing from a deep gash in the soul of my foot.

"Geez, it's too early for this!" He walked off, probably to get me a towel. I yanked a sliver of glass from the cut and cursed quietly. It's probably from when i accidentally knocked over that vase earlier today. Trey walked back in and tossed a towel at me.

"Okay, now what happened?" It came out more as a demand instead of a question.

"Oh what had happened was, i was hungry, so i snuck down for food. I swear i was trying to be quiet but i stepped on glass, so that OBVIOUSLY didnt work!" I babbled. My rambling was cut of by Trey's laughter.

"HA! What a riot. You're like a toddler."He hunched over laughing."you should see your face! Your like lily when she gets caught stealing cookies!" Lily is our little sister. She just turned 4 a few days ago and on that day we caught her stealing cookies, but who can punish a small child on their birthday? You have to be heartless. So instead, mom gave her a cookie and hid the jar. His laughter stopped abruptly and he whipped out his cell phone."ayyyye, jayd texted me!" He smiled. Ugh. Trey and that STUPID device. He never let's it go. Especially when he it texting her. Jayd is his girly friend. I've met the girl once and boy was she rude! She talked to me like i was a servant. She told me to "fetch" her a glass of water. So i fetched the water. Have you ever seen Friday? When ice cube dropped the ice cube? Yeah i did that..but on purpose, and the water came from the toilet....plus i spit in it. Dont worry. It's not like she died or something, and we clean the toilets weekly. "Im going back to bed. Don't bleed everywhere please." He left the room

"Hey! Your not planning on helping?"i sat there feeling a bit melancholy until my mom walked in with and angry expression.

"Why are you being so LOUD?!" she whisper yelled. Oh poop.
