I woke up to the smell of bacon and egg, i force myself up to brush my teeth and wash my face.

"amanda foods done!" I get out of the bathroom in tights and a tank top "Amanda I'm planing on going shopping and going to the grocery store if you want to come."

I make a plate for myself to eat while listening to my mom silently. "I think I'll stay here I wanna get all my stuff out of those stupid boxes already" mom nodded her head.

I finish eating and put the dirty dishes in the sink while mom gets ready to go out and run her errands.

"I'll be out for most of the day getting to know this town but I expect you to behave and keep this place clean please." Mom said while heading out the door.

I continue washing the dishes before I heard a small squeak upstairs, I look up at the stairs then turning off the faucet to hear better. I hear it again,again, and again.

I walk up slowly to the stairs wanting to run the other way. Walking up I hear it again but it's coming from the attic I open the attic and climb in.

I look around and see nothing, I crawl in standing up to make sure it was nothing. Again nothing. I sigh in relief as i make my way towards the door before I reach it, it closes.

I run to the door trying to pull it open to no success. I look around now feeling claustrophobic, breathing heavily now panicking. I keep trying to open the door to no avail.

Looking around to see if anything can help me but the attic is completely empty. I crawl to a wall holding my legs to my chest crying silently trying to calm my breath. " it's ok" I look up to see nobody again. I cry harder now scared out of my mind. Holding my hands over my ears .

While my head is looking down eyes closed while hands on my ears to try and calm down I hear someone else "she's not fucking listening just move her hands already" I cover my ears harder muffling so I don't hear anymore.

I feel hands on my wrists moving them away from my ears "hi" a boy covered in blood looking at me. I want to scream but nothing comes out I see two other boys near the other wall.

"Who are you?" I question wanting answers "I'm Bruce and we're not going to hurt you I promise" he said with sincerity in his voice. " how can I trust you" I said harshly still not trusting him.

"It's going to be hard to believe but we're dead and you can see up somehow." I took in his words comprehending what he just said. " no I'm dreaming this has to be dream, that's impossible your not real" i look away from him wanting to leave and go back home.

I tried pulling my wrists back but he had a tight grip on them. "I know this is hard to believe but you have to trust us, we want to know why you can see us" he said but this time I nodded my head wanting him to get away from
Me.

"My name is robin" the boy with dark long hair said with a goofy smile. "I'm vance hopper" the other boy with curly blond said with a serious face.

They all had bloody faces with cuts littered all over there face with dried blood. "We just want to get to know you" Bruce said I want to go to sleep and never wake up. "But why? Why cant you just leave me alone" I start tearing up again, Bruce put his hand on my cheek wiping my tears away.

"Because we can't leave you for some reason, we tried to stay at the graveyard but we couldn't" he said hand still on my face.

I grabbed his wrist to pull his hand away from me. "Okay but as long as you guys aren't to close to me at all times" I said still shaken up with the whole mess.

They nodded at my request and robin walked to the door to open it for me. I walked out to my room wanting nothing more to sleep and forget this whole mess.

"Well can you guys take that blood off your face please" I say but it came out more harsher then I meant "okay as long as your there with us" robin said I look at him funny "why?" I questioned "because whenever your away from us we can't control our selves and we end up near you no matter how hard we try"

Vance said sounding annoyed like it was a stupid question. I nodded again and walked with them to the bathroom turning on the sink for them robin stepped up first while the to others were behind him waiting for there turn.

I get a wash cloth for robin and give it to him. He looks at me waiting for me like he expected me to do it. Robing sighed " we don't have a reflection so your going to have to do it" he said impatiently still holding the wash cloth to me "oh" is all I say

I rub off robins face carful with the cuts but it didn't seem like it hurt him at all, so I becomes more rough to get the blood off easier.

" ok done who's next?" I ask, Vance walks up and taps his foot impatiently as I rub his face "why do you have to be so rough your going to poke my eye" he said with annoyance laced in his tone.

I finished him up quickly so I can move onto Bruce. Bruce walked up with a small smile on his face I started to get the blood off of him as quick as I can because my hands were getting tired.

Finishing up quickly and rising the wash cloth I folded it and put it back "thanks for getting that blood off even if we can't see it" Bruce smiled at me, I stared smiling to his smile was contagious to me apparently especially with no blood on him anymore.

" don't worry about it just trying to help is all" I walked to my room sitting on my bed still having a hard time wrapping my head around this whole thing.

"Hey dumbass stop mopping and get up your moms here" Vance said while looking out the window. I got up to look as well and saw my mom pull into the driveway I walked toward the living room to see my mom walk in and help her with her bags. And walked in with a happy look on her face "I had such a fun time shopping you should have came with me" mom said with a big smile

I walk out of the house to help get the other bags as quick as I can. I didn't realize how quick time went looking at the sky already seeing stars take over the sky.

I put the bags on the table and walk up to my room. " mom im tired im going to bed, I feel a little sick" mom looked at me and nodded " ok get a goods night sleep I'll make you something Tomorrow in the morning"

I laid down looking at the boys standing over me " can you guys not do that? It's creepy as fuck" I said annoyed

"Well what else are we supposed to do, Cant really walk away from you dumbass" Vance grumbled. " lay down or something" I said trying to be quit so mom won't hear anything.

Vance rolled his eyes and pulled the blanket up and laid next to me " on the floor creep" Vance didn't listen as he made himself comfortable, while robin and Bruce laid down as well.

I groaned in annoyance just wanting to be alone but closed my eyes and let sleep take over.
