Chapter 17 (part 4) Leon's pov

"Hehe they'll never find us here." I said

"Umm are you sure about that...? I mean we are just hiding under the sheets in bed...." August said

"No no. They won't find us. We are in the dark silly." I smiled

"Right...dark..." August said as he scooted closer to me

"Wait you aren't scared of the dark...are you?" I gave him a smirk...but then again he couldn't even see me.

"N-no..." He stuttered

"Aww you areee!" He squealed

"Shhh I hear footsteps." He scooted closer to me and laid his head on my shoulder.

"Michael I think I heard something coming from Leon's room." I heard Hope say. Soon the footsteps got closer. "Hmmm are they in here?" Hope asked.

"Nope!" I said reassuringly. August quickly jabbed me in the side with his elbow. "Owww....August..." I whined. Soon the sheets were pulled off of us and the lights were turned on.

"Haha we win!" Hope said

"Yea so what now?" I asked

"Ummm...I'm not sure." She let out a fake yawn, "You know it's getting late. I think I'm going to hit the hay."

"Yeah I think I am too..." Michael yawned

"Nights guys." Hope gave me a hug and started walking out of the room with Michael.

I caught the curly headed boys shirt and pulled them back into the room "In separate beds!" I said,"I don't want any young ones around! I'm not old enough to be a grandpa!"

"You wouldn't be a grandpa you tard! You'd be an uncle. Hah." She smiled and laughed

"Big difference! Don't think I didn't see that kiss!" Hope's face turned a light shade of pink.

"Yea yea...don't worry we are just going to sleep." She yet again grabbed Michael's hand and walked out of the room. I'm pretty sure I heard her mumble something along the line of, "who does he think he is...I'm a f*****g queen." If she meant a drama queen then yes.

"So love...what now..?"I heard my younger companion say from behind me. He looked tired as he stood beside the bed. I walked to him and moved his hair away from his forehead. I slowly leaned down and kissed it softly.

"Lets go to bed sweets." I picked August up in my arms and laid him down in bed. As soon as his head hit the pillow he was out. "Good night my love..." I turned off the light and laid down beside him holding him close to me. The rest of the night I listened to his steady and peaceful breathing.
