Terrible Things (Creepypasta fanfic)

Chapter 1

Link's POV

"Daddy, will you sing to me?" I asked, laying in bed. Dad smiled lovingly at me.
"Of course Link." He whispered.

" By the time I was your age,
I'd give anything
To fall in love truly,
was all I could think
That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman,
that I'd ever seen

She said, "Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I can't help but notice,
you're staring at me.
I know I shouldn't say this,
but I really believe,
I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me."

Now, son, I'm only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things.

Now, most of the time we'd have too much to drink
And we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
Too young to notice,
And too dumb to care
Love was a story that couldn't compare.

I said, "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string.
Open with care now, I'm asking you, please.
You know that I love you,
Will you marry me?"

Now, son, I'm only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things
You'll learn, one day, I'll hope and I'll pray,
That God shows you differently.

She said, "Boy can I tell you a terrible thing?
It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks.
Please, don't be sad now, I really believe,
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me."

Slow, so slow I fell to the ground on my knees.

So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose
If you're given the choice, then I beg you to choose
To walk away, walk away, don't let her get you.
I can't bear to see the same happen to you.

Now, son, I'm only telling you this
Because life can do terrible things."

He finished the song, tears welling in his eyes. I was sobbing quietly. It was my mum's song. And everything was true. Dad looked at the floor, his shoulders shaking. Its been 6 years since mum died. 6 years tomorrow. Its my birthday. Dad has been training me already. After all, i am a creepypasta. Dad pulled me in for a hug. I sobbed, memories of Zalgo's hands covered in mum's blood seeped into my mind.
"I wish i had known her." I whispered, wiping my tears away. I looked at the end of my bed and gasped. A cat made of fire was sitting on the bed. She was staring at me, her eyes wet from tears, her expression sad. A memory flashed into my mind, my mum shape-shifting mid leap.
"Mummy." I whispered. Dad looked at me confused. I pointed at the cat.
"Son, there is nothing there." He said gently. I shook my head as the cat curled into a ball.
"Daddy, she is sitting on the bed. A cat made of fire. She looks so sad. Its mummy." I insisted. He sighed sadly.
"Ok Link. Whatever you say." Dad stood up and walked to the door.
"See you tomorrow. Love you son." He said, grinning.
"Love you too Dad." I whispered. When Dad closed the door, i sat up again. The cat came slinking up the bed.
"I will always be with you. I love you Link." She purred into my ear. I rubbed my head against hers.
"I love you mum." I said as she laid down beside me. I stroked her before falling asleep, my fingers still tangled in her fur.

"Link! Link wake up!" I could hear a young girl calling, small hands shaking my shoulders. I sat up, yawning. The girl giggled. She had light green eyes that sparkled and dark brown hair that was bouncy and alive. She had small marks stretching up her cheeks, resembling a smile. She wore a white hoodie, a black skirt and black trainers. A chain dangled around her neck. It was a cat head with flaming eyes. Dad had given it to her. It reminded him of Mum. Her name was Sunshine.
"Sunny, can you get off?" I asked, grinning.
"Happy birthday!" She squealed. Sunny was only 4.
"Thanks." I said as the door opened. Jess was standing there.
"There you are, you little monkey! We've been looking for you." She said warmly.
"Mummy!" Sunshine sang as she leapt into her mother's arms. Jeff came in and hugged his daughter and wife. They got married about a month after Mum died. I frowned as i thought about it. 6 years ago today, i was born and my mother was killed. Sigh.
"Happy birthday Link." Jeff said gently. I grinned at him.
"Thanks Jeff." He was my mum's best friend. They left the room and i looked beside me. Mum was stretching.
"Happy birthday." She whispered. I smiled at her.
"Thank you Mum. Happy anniversary." I said sadly. She sighed deeply. I pulled myself out of my bed and went to my wardrobe. I pulled out a dark purple top, a leather jacket, black skinny jeans and boots. I turned around, but Mum was gone.

"Happy birthday Link!" All the creepypastas were standing outside, waiting for me. I grinned. Grace was sitting on Toby's lap. Jeff and Jess were hugging, Sunshine running around their feet. Sally was chasing Sunny. Dad and Slendy were whispering. The great thing is, i have super hearing. The advantages of having a shape-shifting Mother.
"He says that Midnight was in his room in her cat form. That she was sad." Dad whispered.
"Hm, its possible that she is around. She could have decided to be a guardian to him." Slendy said back.
"Maybe he is saying it to comfort himself. With a memory like Link's, you're bound to be scarred." Dad said sadly. Slendy nodded before looking up. He saw me standing in the entrance and he turned to my dad again.
"Busted." He said, before walking off. Dad looked confused until he looked up and saw me. I glared at him coldly. I know what i saw. I was soon pulled out of my thoughts when i saw cake. Yummy!

I didn't speak to Dad for the rest of the day. When i went to bed, Mum tried to reason with me.
"You can't blame him Link. He's probably feeling hurt because he can't see me but you can." She said. I was about to reply, when my door creaked open. Looking at the door, i layed down and yanked the duvet over my head.
"Link?" Dad whispered. Ignoring him, i tried to slow my breathing. After a while, he gave up. Kissing me on the forehead, he crept out of the room and shut the door. I stayed there, until eventually, my eyes closed and i fell asleep.

"Link! Link wake up! Its my birthday this time!" Sunny leapt onto the bed, making mum hiss and she fell onto the floor.
"God, she is annoying." Mum climbed up the bed, her ears flat on her head, her tail between her legs. I laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Sunny asked. I grinned at her, trying to think up an excuse. I will sound crazy if i say that im talking to the ghost of my dead mother. Even if we are creepypastas.
"Um... your enthusiasm?" I said grinning. She frowned for a moment before grinning back. Then she frowned again.
"What does that mean? Actually you know what, i don't care." She said, wandering out of the room. I shook my head at her before looking at the clock. 5am. I glared at the door before rolling over. Mum jumped down and ran out of the room. Deciding it was far too early, i rolled over and went to sleep.
