On the hill

Chapter 1

The story is still hard to talk about to this day. All I can remember is the old house on the hill, surrounded by trees. It was creepy at night and looked about three centuries old.

I remember it like it was yesterday, that day it was Martin, Curtis, Selina and I; we were all at this old Theater on central street in South Carolina, when we Heard about the house on the hill. It was after we watched that one movie about the girl going through the little door into some dream world but, the rumour was that some kid had broke in. Took an object and then the next  two weeks allegedly claimed there was a second world then...went missing. Here's the catch the object was found at his bedside with his face carved perfectly into it creepy right? We all thought it was a myth so we decided to meet up there one late night while our parents were all out at a party together.

I was the first to arrive, the house was awfully prettier than how they described. White panels hug the sides of the pink siding. In the middle of admiration I heard a branch break standjng still i scan the fence line covered by an over grown bush. "Boo" I jump to see Curtis pop out from behind the edge of the bush. "Do that again I promise you I will take my foot and shove it so far up your ass your kids will feel it" I say taking deep breaths resting my hand over my heart.  "Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today" Curtis laughs before stepping on his shoelace and continuing up the path. I glare at him hoping to burn a hole in the back of his head suddenly disrupted by a voice nearby "leave her alone Curt" Martin says doing that cute little cool guy walk i love so much; Smelling like the embodiment of heaven. Before flashing a smile at me he kisses my hands holding them together before his gentle green eyes trapped me in their gaze.

    "Okay soo where is miss fashion queen" I say when i snap back, Martin laughs with Curtis I glare."What?" then it hit me. I turn to find Selina, arms folded and bright red "why are you mad you know all you do is complain about how you look" putting my hand in front of her face and turn back to the boys.

      I look down at Curtis tying his shoe "So what's the plan for this one?" "we go in and see what we find like usual" replies Martin "and don't take anything Curt" Selina says joining the circle. "you would be the one to take something Curt" I add "hey! I would not, thats got to be racist" Curtis says standing up after pulling a perfect bow then crossing his arms. I turn and look up at the cawing crow on the roof placing my hand on the chilly gate, shivering I step back on Selina's shoe. "Watch it these were the last online they costed me a-" "yeah yeah yeah did you guys hear about the doll associated with that boys disappearance?" I stand next to Martin who rests his arm on Curtis shoulder. "Yeah heard it was a doll" Selina says wiping mud off her shoe with a cloth before throwing it on the ground.

Martin steps on the Grass of the vacant house and pushes the gate back letting it go as Curtis places the brick against it. "This isn't the first abandoned house we have gone through" I shrug walking in behind Martin and Curtis, "Um...i don't know guys this one seems different its a possibility we can get caught in whatever this house has going on think ill sit this one out". "I never thought i'd say this but I agree with Selina she should sit this one out" I say grabbing Martin's hand walking deeper into the yard following the shattered pavement to the creaky old stairs hearing the crunch of Selina's boots on the pavement as she walks down the hill.
