"Do you hear that? The police are coming. We have to go. Do you understand?" Misty tugged on Natalie's arm. She was sobbing into her palm at the sight of her teenage love lifeless and strung in the air.

"Come on, let's go."

Misty guided Natalie to the car, an arm wrapped around her body before she shoved it off as she opened the car door and got in.

"Travis didn't kill himself." she finally spoke a few minutes into the drive back.

She didn't bother looking to see Misty's reaction, she stared straight ahead, the same as Misty was doing while driving the two of them.

"This is the last thing Travis wrote before he died. I found it in his cabin." Misty said as she handed her a piece of folded lined paper with her free hand.

Natalie turned on the light to read the messy handwriting that spelled out the words "tell nat she was right."

"Do you know what you were right about?"

"I dont, but I know I'm right about this. Travis didn't do this. Somebody killed him." Natalie stated confidently.

"Who?"

"I dont know but I know who would." she replied.

"Who?" Misty asked again, even more confused to who she was referring to now.

"Selena."

"What the hell?" Bianca mumbled sleepily, she had been woken up by a light tug on her sleeve.

Just a few hours ago, the entire group had been woken up by the commotion coming from the attic caused by Lottie and Tai's discovery of what they now called "the dead guy".

"Somethings wrong." Lottie whispered to her, a blanket sprawled over her legs as she was sat up beside Bianca who was laying down.

"Tai took care of it, there's nothing to be scared of anymore." Bianca reassured her, putting her hand over Lottie's who was still gripping her sleeve.

"Bad things happened here."

"I mean maybe but," Bianca started.

"I feel it, Bianca. I never have before." Lottie hesitated as she spoke. Bianca could hear the fearful tone in her voice so she decided to entertain it for a little while.

"Feel what?" she asked nervously.

"Its hard to explain. I just feel it. Its a feeling. Somethings different."

"So you've mentioned." Bianca gave her a sarcastic smile with the little strength she had in her tired face.

"We aren't safe here, Bia." she warned her.

"We're stuck in the middle of nowhere, Lot. That isn't surprising." Bianca reasoned.

"You know what I mean."

"Tai's right, it might not be the best time to start believing in the supernatural." she mumbled back as she watched Lottie's gaze turn from fearful to frustrated.

"Forget it." Lottie sighed, turning away from Bianca and laying back down. She pulled her blanket back up to her chest angrily.

"Lot, I didn't mean it in a bad way I just meant-" Bianca began to explain herself before finally giving up.

It had only been a week and they were already losing their minds.
