The Call 1

I woke up with a start by the noisy, electric hum of my mobile phone under my pillow. Swearing loudly and rubbing my eyes irritably with clenched fists I glanced at the watch. 6 am? Who the hell was phoning me at six on a sunday morning?
I snatched up the phone, jabbing the answer button violently.

My heart fluttered, no one called me that, no one except...

"Als?" The voice was barely an unused whisper, "Ally it's me, it's Danny."
I threw the phone across the room with a small shriek and my heart thudded painfully. The words rung in my head.
It's me, Danny...
I had to be dreaming. This isn't real. It can't be...
This isn't possible. I hadn't heard my brother Danny's voice in over a year now, because one day Danny just disappeared. And two months ago the police had found the body that confirmed my brother was dead...
