I must have fallen asleep in the couch because when I woke up the clock read 9:46 pm.  I obviously fell asleep on couch around 4 so I slept a really long time,  I guessed it was just the stress about the night before.  I sat up rubbing my eyes, It was already dark outside.  There was a little bit of sunlight still but the sun had gone down. 

I turned on the small lamp beside the couch before watching some more tv.  I was getting bored because the channel was just playing the same things over and over again like usual.  I sighed turning off the tv.

*Ring, Ring, Ring* The house phone rang from the kitchen.  I made confused face, why was somebody calling at this time? Telemarketers usually call during the day.

I didn't think it was important so I let the phone ring until it stopped.  I was surprised when the call went to voicemail,  The phone was one of the ones that would play the voicemail out loud so I was interested to know why somebody was calling. 

But instead after the beep it was a few seconds of silence until the caller hung up.  I thought it was weird but I figured it was a wrong number and decided not to think much of it. 

A few seconds later the phone rang again from the kitchen *Ring, Ring, Ring*

"What the hell" I said under my breath as I stood up and made my way to the kitchen.

I tried looking for the number on the phone but it read "No Caller ID"

That's weird I thought as I decided to ignore the call once more,  I figured it was just teenagers bored on a Saturday night calling random numbers.  I used to do that when I was around 15 with my friends so I wasn't mad.

I started walking out of the kitchen when the phone rang again behind me.  At this point I was starting to get a little freaked out but I decided to answer. I held my breath as I picked up the phone,

"Hello..?" I asked hesitantly.

There was no response,

"hello??" I asked more firmly, and again there was no response.

I put the phone down while rolling my eyes and walking out of the kitchen.

I sat on the couch slightly annoyed,  If they were going to prank call me they should at leased make it funny.

*Ring, Ring, Ring* The phone rang again,

I stood up quickly and walked to the phone reading "No Caller ID" again where the number should be.

I picked up the phone,

"Helllooooooooo????" I said confidently,

I listened closely and all I could hear from the other end was breathing?

"Ok look if your going to prank call me you should at leased make it good" I said into the phone before almost slamming it down back onto its charger when I heard a voice.

"Hey sweetheart"

It was Ghostface.
