RED

I was under the covers, playing PvZ (yeah, I’m old school), waiting for time to pass by. My brother knows I decided to sleep by eight and I waited for an hour before he went and slept as well. I’m really careful when sneaking out, especially if it concerned my brother. Caleb was a light sleeper. Anything can wake that guy up, it’s freaky. I continued playing the game to kill time (not to mention I slightly panicked coz a bucket head was about to eat my pea shooter but I freaking cherry bombed his ass so my lawn is perfectly safe).

I checked the time.

9:15.

Breakout time, baby.

I quietly removed the thick piece of cloth covering me and maneuvered myself in the dark. I can’t turn on the lights. Caleb would get suspicious so I had to find my way in the darkness. My parent’s room was just next door but that wasn’t any of my concerns. Mom and Dad aren’t here.

Why? I don’t know. They never tell me.

My parents are on a business trip, or probably a meeting that they can’t miss, so they go somewhere without telling me. At some points, they talk to Caleb about things but even Caleb doesn’t tell me. I’ve always assumed it was somewhere on WingMaiden Island. Heh, its funny. Our family moved to Berk from WingMaiden Island yet none of my other relatives live there? The Morgans have no single connection at WingMaiden Island. Our relatives are mostly at Caldera Cay (Defenders of the Wing Island) and yet, I’ve never been there before. My parents try to avoid the conversation about my birthplace… like they don’t want me to find out.

I don’t bother asking. I know someday I’ll find out, but not now. But something has been bothering me for a while now, though. The day that mom and dad and I had a fight, they said I’ll be moving out of Berk this summer.

I don’t want to leave Berk. I have friends here. The only friends I’ve managed to make and to think I’ll be leaving them.

I was supposed to tell Cora the other day about this but I didn’t want to make her sadder than she already is. Her dad refused to feed her, at that time she and Newt were still having an argument so I didn’t want to burden her even more. I’ll probably tell them someday. Sometime. Not now but someday. The situation we were all in was enough as it is. And besides? Who would care when I’m gone anyway?

I crept through my room, looking for a jacket.

Where is it?

I needed a jacket. I was wearing some loose comfortable grey pants and a maroon tight-up shirt. It was pretty cold here at Berk. I’m actually surprised that it still rains here. Mostly it just snows or hails. The seasons change though so I guess it got warm enough for rain.

But still… it was freakin’ cold wtf Berk.

“Ah, screw this.” I gave up with looking for a jacket. Finding my way in the dark was harder than it looked and my room was pretty huge. I just went to my door, slowly opened it, and headed down stairs to sneak out.

I beg the gods, don’t let Caleb spot me please…

I was closing the stairs and decided to plug in my earphones. Gods I needed new earphones, or maybe even headphones. But all the cool gadgets always go to Caleb so I always end up with crappy ones. I shrugged.

Quietly in a corner, I looked through my playlist to find the perfect song to ease me of my fears. I was pretty scared, and that’s a lot coming from me. I wasn’t scared of being caught and get sent to jail or whatever… I was scared of Caleb’s disappointed face the moment he finds out. I respect Caleb… a lot. He may look like a favorite child and I would always get compared to him but he was my brother. And he cared for me… but to see him disappointed in me feels like absolute shit.

What song? Hmmmm…

I needed a song that won’t scare me to death.

Hmm… maybe a little classic won’t hurt…Oh! Phantom of the opera… why not?

BEWAAAAARE THE PHANTOM OF- 

Nope!

I instantly pressed pause. Dang Phantom of the Opera was NOT the song I needed right now.

I scrolled through my endless playlist. Come on, there had to be something out of all these songs I downloaded.

Ah… the perfect song…

“You’ve been deep in a coma, 

But I stood right here

When you thought there was no one

I was still right here 

You were scared but I told ya 

Open up your eyes…” 

I don’t know why I chose this song. Felt right… like… maybe I needed to realize something. I headed down stairs, quietly, careful not to wake Caleb up.

“Never stopped being someone

Who could love you well 

Had to show you the hard way

Only time would tell 

Revalations and heartaches

Make you realize…” 

I heaed out of our house, with ease, promising myself to be back by midnight. I ran to the direction of the arena, eyeing the Mess Hall and seeing someone I’ve been wanting to see for days now.

“I was always… in front of you…”

Nik.

I didn’t get to hear the rest of the song coz I took off my earphones and ran to him, who seemed to be pretty busy listening to music as well. Damn… nice headphones Nik. Nik knows how to style himself up… lucky.

I ran to his direction, ready to hug the crap out of him.

I wanted to scream out, “NIK OH MY GOD I MISSED YOU, YOU LITTLE SON OF A HALF-TROLL, RAT-EATING MUNGE BUCKET! IM SO GLAD YOU’RE OKAY!” but decided not to since I’d wake up the whole Berkian population if I attempted on doing that.

I just ran to him, slight tears forming on the corner of my eyes and hugged him out of nowhere, giving him the biggest bearhug a red-head could ever summon. I caught him by surprise too. The moment I neared him, he flinched and he froze when I hugged him out of nowhere but I was glad he hugged back just a few seconds later and we stayed in that position for a while… just admiring the silence in each other’s arms.

I missed Nik. A lot. He was one of my closest friends ever! I wish both Cora and Newt were here (and Riley if ever he isn’t dead) so all five of us could just… reunite. But right now, I only had access to Nik so I’ll take it.

I heard a faint sound of music coming from his earphones…

“And I know I was born to be yours…”

It’s probably just my imagination.

“R-Red…” Nik stated awkwardly before I realized I was being too clingy. Woops. I immediately stepped back, not wanting to go through more of his… uuh… personal space.

I gave him a smile before looking at the direction of the arena, “Come on! The guards are on break, we can-“ Nik suddenly grabbed my arm before I could take another step further. Okay, what the frick?

Nik shook his head, “We can’t. I’ve been here for about fifteen minutes already and I saw someone head to the arena.” Nik said, in all seriousness.

“Who?” I asked.

Nik looked at me with angered and suspicious eyes, “Arkin”.

Well… shit.
