Turning my key in the door I went inside and locked it behind me. Turning on the light I slipped my jacket and boots off and went to find a dry towel.

I hadn't heard from my gran since she left, my stomach was in knots because of how bad the weather was. What if she was stuck somewhere? Drying out my hair I stripped out of my wet clothes and put them straight into the washing machine.

Taking my phone out of my bag I checked to see if she had sent any messages or at least tried to phone. Nothing!! Putting the kettle on to boil I took fresh pjs from the laundry pile and quickly put them all.

I could hear the rain battering off the window. The wind had began to pick up. All in all I was glad I was back home and safe. Emptying some hot chocolate into a mug I filled it to the top with boiling water before adding a little milk.

She would be home soon.

An hour had passed and she still wasn't home. I had put the vampire diaries on but couldn't concentrate. The weather was making me worry, what if she had been in an accident? Dialling her number I put the phone to my ear.

No answer!

Now I was freaking out a little. Phone in hand I started to pace the living room jumping slightly when it started to vibrate. She was calling me.

"Hello".

"Are you home?". She asked.

"Yes, where are you?".

"Listen honey I don't think I'm going to make it home tonight. There has been an accident and they've shut the road off, we can't get in".

An accident?

"Are you safe? The weather is really bad. I seen on the news they think a storm is coming. Don't you go outside Leah".

"I'm safe gran, I'm home. Are you safe, is George with you?". I asked.

"We're both safe. I hate that I'm not home with you. Will you be okay? Maybe phone Alanna and go stay with her?". She suggested.

"I'm okay I'll see you tomorrow just stay safe".

"I don't want you to be alone when the weather is this bad Leah. Could you please phone Alanna or even Charlotte".

"Gran I'm fine...hello?".... I was losing her, the connection poor. "Hello, can you hear me?".

"Leah?"....

"I'm here".

"I-Leah-..go..and...Alanna".

The line went dead.

I wasn't going to stay with Alanna. I was perfectly fine in my own home. I would ride the storm out with some hot Cheetos and the Salvatore brothers.

I had brought my duvet down stairs, turned off all the lights and was curled on the sofa. I was completely ignoring the fact that it felt like my house would blow away.

I was warm, comfortable and safe.

It was late but I wasn't tired. My phone signal had completely gone, all connections down. My wifi down, so no more Netflix. I was sitting in my living room on my own in the dark.

I wonder if Mr hotshot was still having his party.

Pushing the covers off I flicked on the lamp squeezing my eyes shut at the brightness. Walking into the kitchen I opened the fridge, I wasn't really hungry but I was bored and always had room for snacks.

I wondered if I could still get take out?

Rolling my eyes at that ridiculous idea I took out some chicken dropping it when I heard voices outside my back garden.

It was late and I was here on my own with no cell reception.
