Night Walker

Chapter 4

*Val POV*
The next day
"Right, so are we staying at yours Skul?" Dexter grins, as the rest of the dead men smile. "Sure. It's not like I have a choice" Skul mumbles back, pouting. I laugh, nudging him. "Come on! Lighten up! It's once a month we get to do this!" I grin. He sighs, nodding. "I guess so.." He mumbles, making the rest of us cheer. "Right so we meet at yours at 5:30pm?" Anton asks, grinning. Skul nods as we disperse to get ready for the once a month dead men and Tanith & me sleepover.

3:00pm
I glance once again at the clock, pouting. Still two and a half hours. I get up from my bed, wandering into my bathroom. I turn on the shower, getting undressed. I get under the warm water, relishing the warm feeling it brings with it.
After being in there for around ten minutes, I finally get out, wrapping myself in a towel. I check the clock again, 3:11pm. I glance at the mirror, deciding to brush my teeth. Once I'm done, I start combing my hair. As I'm glancing at the clock behind me in the mirror, I scream, whipping my head around. There was someone there. A girl. I pant, afraid. I'm just tired, probably cause of the lack of sleep. Right?....

5:25
I arrived at skuls house, paying the driver. I had been taking cabs a lot recently. I open the door with the key Skul gave me, and find everyone already in there pjs, slouching in the lounge room talking. "Hey guys" I murmur, sitting onto the couch. "Hey val, are you ok?" Anton asks, furrowing his eyebrows. "Yeah.... Just tired... I... I don't feel to good.." I mumble, resting my head on my knees. Tanith comes over and sits next to me, pulling me to rest against her. She rubs my back, frowning. "You look really pale, val... Maybe you should go home...." She whispers, making me frown. I jump up, smiling, "No way! We have so much to do tonight!" I grin, jumping about. The Dead Men look at me, confused and worried. "Val.... Maybe you should lie down....." Anton murmered, getting up and walking towards me. I shake my head, bouncing up and down. "I feel fine!!" I assure, plonking myself back next to Tanith. The dead men look worried but slowly nod.
