Once Kenna Wellington's stepbrothers come into her life, crazy can't even begin to explain it. Her life was totally fine with her two best friends and a mom who couldn't love her more than she already does. Then there is Mason, her other stepbrother...

I sat on my bed waiting for Mason to come home from wherever he went for days. He never did come home, at least when I was awake. It's like he knew exactly when I was up and waiting and when I was asleep. I just want to thank him for what he did since he did this whole disappearing act on me in the hospital.
Sometimes, I just give up and call Morgan or Alex. Other times, I wait until I fall asleep. Either way, It's been about a week since I got home and I didn't see Mason. And I can't see him in school because mom is making sure I'm fully recovered before going back to that hell hole.
Now I'm just waiting. That's all I've been doing. I see nothing new in Mason's room as I wait for him to come home. I know very well he is going to come home, so I just wait for him to be by sitting on his bed. His room is so plain, I wonder if he plans on leaving home as soon as he graduates. I don't. I want to spend as much time as I can with my mom and David. I don't even think I am ready to be an adult. I fear having to go to college soon and having to make my own food and pay my own bills. I don't even want to have to wake up every morning and do whatever it is I have to do.
Suddenly, Mason's bed looks really warm. I slowly pull the covers back and slide in. I think that the warmth of this bed right now is what I need because every worry goes away the second I touch the silk sheets. Mason should be home soon. I close my eyes briefly, thinking that maybe I can take a little nap while I wait.
Without thinking, I close my eyes and fall into a deep slumber. And I feel entirely safe during it.

A/N
Honest to God, I can't stand having to write another chapter today because I think I've written chapters 23 to this one all in under 5 hours and I'm sick of it. But I want to finish this book. Also, I have no idea why this chapter is so short. But its sort of a filler for my next one and I don't feel like adding more, so like, just deal with it. Thanks. Love ya.
