Chapter 10

It's dark and late once I make my way through the front door, trying to be as quiet as possible. I shuffle in and close the door over, the soft click filling the silence in the air.

"Where the hell have you been?"

I jump out of my skin, clutching my heart dramatically. I definitely wasn't expecting that...

I whirl around to find Micah perched on the end of the couch, his arms crossed over his chest. He's glaring at me, eyes narrowed and even though the room is dark, I can see how annoyed he is.

"I was out with Calvin and his friend, Zack." I say, dropping my bag down onto the floor. Micah doesn't reply but his eyes narrow further. I ignore him and signal at the stairs -

"The parents asleep?" I ask, ignoring his burning stare.

All he gives me is one nod in return.

"What did you find out?" He says bluntly, remaining rooted to the spot.

I walk past him, heading for the kitchen.
