Nick and I have been running around the cemetery for an hour and I'm starving. It's true. I easily get hungry. And that freaky mausoleum is nowhere to be found. I mean, it shouldn't be this hard right. The whole cemetery is composed of just tombs and slabs on the ground. Looking for that one and only mausoleum shouldn't take this long.
"Niiiiiiiiccckkkk.. I'm hungry. That story's a fake. There's no building here other than the empty guard house. ", I pouted at Nick.
He threw me a pack of skittles and smiled."I knew you'd be bored and hungry so I bought you these.", he said while still searching our surroundings.
I smiled at Nick's sweetness. If he wasn't my friend, I'm sure that I'll have a super huge crush on him. I thanked him and sat down on the green grass while munching on my skittles.
"Hey. What if we check to the farther side of the cemetery. The one next to the woods.", I suggested through a mouthful of skittles.
Nick cupped my face in both of his hands and exclaimed "That's it! The mausoleum must be there since it's deserted over there. Why haven't I thought of that earlier."
I pushed him lightly to stand up and started walking towards the woods
I admit, the closer we get to the far side the creepier it gets. There were stone angels everywhere while at near the entrance there were just a few that doesn't look to old and moldy.
Ever get that feeling like you were being watched by a pair of hidden eyes somewhere. That's what I was feeling right now except I think it's the stone angels' eyes that are looking at us.
I held onto Nick's arm to keep myself from shaking. God, it felt good to just hold him and smell him. Wait, what?
Nick broke our silence and said " Mones, look. Past those trees." He pointed right in front of him.
I looked up and saw a low grey building a few feet away from the clearing that clearly made me shudder. It's like a small house except there's no window and a set of double wooden doors that looks like termites have been eating on it. The building was covered in mold and looks like it's gonna fall down anytime soon. It's surrounded by over grown grass and trees. Really came out of a horror movie.
Nick and I looked at it for few seconds and I whispered ," Nick. We found it."
