Author's Note

Now that I've finally finished Part 3, I feel like I could sleep for a day straight. I might just do that, in fact. As soon as I post this. I don't have to go school, so why not? I'll start Part 4 when I wake up.

Anyway, I really hope everyone liked the third part of Dead in Bed. A lot happens in it, and it's the longest segment yet. Please follow me and vote if you like it! As always, you can message me with any questions. You can ask me anything except for what happens next! I can't give the ending away.

Some of you wrote asking about "Kyle." I guess I should stop using quotes and just get used to the pseudonym.

Honestly, things could be better with Kyle. I think I made a mistake.

I know I shouldn't be writing about this, even if I'm not using our real names. But I don't have anyone to tell, not even my best friend—for reasons which maybe I'll try to explain later, but not now.

But I don't think I can stand just keeping it all inside and not sharing it with anybody.

So, here's what happened.

My dad finally turned our internet back on. I told him I'm doing a school project. Luckily he let me write all weekend without saying anything. As long as he doesn't see what I'm actually writing, I think for now I'm okay. But Kyle didn't know this. He was being so sweet, he showed up again and parked across the street so I could use his iPad Wi-Fi. It was pretty late when I got his text, almost one in the morning.

But I wasn't asleep.

I'd been so irritated with my dad, and so sick of being stuck at home all day, and so bored, I kind of . . . climbed out my window to go say hi to Kyle.

My doctor would have killed me if he knew what I did, but I made it over the sill without hurting myself.

Kyle was really surprised to see me. Really surprised. He definitely didn't expect it. He was happy, I could tell, but he was worried I'd get in trouble too. We sat and listened to music for a while.

And then he kissed me.

We'd never, ever kissed before. I had so many butterflies in my stomach when he leaned over.
