After a movie marathon, me and my friend, Sarah, are ready to go to sleep.
My parents are not home, so we put their mattress on the floor. My friend is sleeping on the left side, facing my bed, and me on the right side, beside the closet.
When I'm almost falling asleep, Sarah starts shaking my arm and saying in a shaking voice:
- I saw something under the bed, turn on the lights.
- What!- I just woke up so, as an instinct, I pull her to my side.
- I don't know what it is.- She's hidding under the blanket, tearing up.
- Oh! You scared me for a second there.- I laughed and lay down again.
- What? But there's...- Sarah sutters.
- It's not gonna hurt you. It's just hidding.- I say turning the light off.- So you better fall asleep, because you don't wanna to be awake when whatever it's hidding from comes.
