           You looked outside your bedroom window and wished that you were something other than a human, maybe a bird or a cat. You could do whatever you wanted all day and never have to worry about tests, chores, ect. You thought about calling Alex but decided against it because last time you called her this late she just about died the next day. You sighed and doodled in your sketchbook for a while before your mom walked in your room "(Y/n) why are you not asleep, It is 3 in the morning." Your mom worked really late so she came home around this time usually. "Uhhhh I can't sleep, I have a sunburn on my shoulders." It wasn't all that of a lie. You did get sunburnt and were hurting but it wasn't what was kerping you awake. You were worried about Robbie. "Well at least try to sleep instead of blasting your devilish music and sketching cartoons." Your mom said annoyed. She honestly had heard the sunburn excuse a lot. "Fine, but can I grab some melatonin?" Your mom stared at you and walked out and came back with melatonin a couple of seconds later. "Here, now get to bed. You know you need to study harder in order to go to college" your mom said. You were tired of that. She always talks about college and being a lawyer and crap like that. She wants me to be a wife that works at home when she isn't working at her job. It's not me though. I want to make songs, specifically make songs with Robbie. Maybe Alex and lilith can join in too but they dont really understand Robbie. "Ok mom, I will do much studying" her mom stared at her "you can't even speak normal grammer. Study more on your english." She said before walking out of my room

        I looked at my ceiling and waited for what felt like hours. I eventually didnt hear rustling in the kitchen and dining room anymore and heard my mom's door click. After about 30 minutes after that I knew she was asleep. I immediately called Robbie. I knew he was asleep but I needed to talk to someone. I also wanted to check on him. The phone rang for a little but then he picked up. "Hello??" He said in a half asleep kinda tone. "Hey Robbie, how are uou doing  is that bruise from yesterday healing?" You asked him. Yesterday he got into a fight with the jerk at school brandy. "Uh yea thanks for asking. Whats up" he said starting to sound more awake. The fact I am calling him at 3 in the morning is normal for the most part. "Well I am just sick and tired of my mom thinking that she can control my future. Like seriously I don't wann- " I was cut off  "I will be there in 10 minutes, we can go to the cemetry to talk" he says. You smile "Well ok but bring your ukulele. I wanna play a duet if possible." You smiled even more as you thought about you strumming freely. Music was the hilight of your day- no, the highlight of your life. You can get so overwhelmed by emotions by it. You feel free when you play on the flute and ukulele. You pack yor ukulele into the case and put on your dad's hat that he gave you and waited at your window. Eventually you saw him and you climbed out. Your room was on the 1st floor of the house so you didn't have to climb down a roof. You caught up with him and he smiled. "Hey (Y/n)" he said. You were lost in your thoughts so you didn't respond. You thought to yourself   'guess I really am nocturnal'...

((A/n: heya there. So I am terrible at keeping up with fanfiction but this one I hope to come up with a schedule for it. So until further notice the next part will be updated Friday. Also, I am not Cavetown nor do I take credit for the ideas this book is based off of because it is based off of his songs. This one particularly was based off of Fool. So yea~ Pastel_bean
