You fell on your butt with a huff as you pulled more wallpaper away from the wall.

There was a huge pile of the disgusting and ugly wallpaper that was in the living and dining room.

You sighed as you got up grabbing your scraping tool off the floor and went back to work on the wall. You only needed a small section anyway.

---

After a while you had gotten all of the wallpaper off the wall. You checked your watch realizing it was already 3:00 in the afternoon.

You looked around for the trash bags that you had bought so you could dispose of the old wallpaper.

At least....you thought you had bought some "fuck me.." You whispered to yourself taking a seat on the floor against the wall for a moment.

Your head slouched down as you ran a hand through your hair looking around the room at the empty and broken down space around you.

You had some paint coming today. You had drove to the store, and asked some to be delivered since you would be at the house all day anyway.

You sighed stretching slightly as you looked out the window in the living room. Watching the breeze hit the leafs as you smiled at the sight

You saw a flash of grey out of the corner of your eye. Your head immediately darts towards the living room entrance as you stood up quickly picking up your scraper tool to use as a weapon if you need.

You heard slow footsteps going up the stairs as you walk towards them slowly holding the tool up as you got closer

"listen whoever's up there! This house is owned and occupied so i'd really appreciate it if you could please leave!"

You paused for a moment hoping for a response. You grumbled angry at whoever it was "alright then" you walked up the stairs as they made loud noises beneath your foot

You heard little chuckles coming from the master bedroom. They were faint but still there.

You Rolled your eyes walking to the door hastily

You opened the bedroom door looking around the room. Checking under the bed and in the closet until you heard another chuckle coming from the bathroom.

You sighed heavily "listen kid i don't know what your doing but you need to go home"

You walked into the bathroom leaving the door open behind you as you look everywhere. You rip open the shower curtain sighing as you turn to leave

You froze, and slowly turned towards the broken mirror hanging on the wall by a thread as your body turned cold

There in front of you A little boy sat behind you waving politely.

all breath left your body as you dropped your tool and sprinted fast. You ran face first into the bathroom door that had been wide open moments before. You didn't dwell on it and kept running out of the room.

You practically leaped down the staircase. You could hear your heartbeat in your ears as the smell of dust goes past yours nose as you sprinted out the front door as fast as possible.

You fumbled out the door looking behind you as you ran. You saw nothing there, but you felt something catch your foot

"shit!" You yelped out as you hit the floor hard. You sat up slowly breathing heavely. you soon caught your breath you kept your eyes trained on the house as you sat on the floor shaking lightly.
