 I woke up feeling a blanket of warmness covering my arms. I opened my eyes to see Nick, holding me with concern-filled eyes. It looks like he was sobbing a little because of the redness of his eyes.  My head hurts and try to remember what happened to me. I just remember the part where I fell down to the floor then, nothing but darkness.


I rested my head on Nick's chest. Feeling the warmth seeping from his body. I could feel his sobs. I felt sorry for him and this is all my fault. I looked up at him. "Hey."


"Mona?! You're awake! Oh thank God! I thought something bad happened to you.", Nick exclaimed, quite relieved.


I smiled at him and released myself from his warn embrace. "What happened?" I asked while rubbing my still aching head.


"Well, remember when the door slammed shut?" I nodded. "When I was banging and shouting at the door, we heard a loud scream clearly made by a woman but I looked and checked but there was nobody in there except for us. Then you started wobbling and eventually fell to the ground. I picked you up then the door opened so I ran the hell out of that place while carrying you. Good thing this guard house isn't locked.", he finished while silently wiping away dried tears.


I looked around us and realized we're sitting on the floor. I looked at Nick and saw how tired his beautiful face is..wait what? I may have been saved by Nick but I shouldn't think  about him like this. He's my friend. My only friend to be exact.


"Nick, I think we should go home.", I said and looked through the broken window that it's nearing morning. The sky was slowly turning from dark grey to bluish-pink.


Nick looked at me with tired eyes. " Yeah I think we should."


-----TIME SKIP-----



It was already 9:30 in the morning and I'm looking at Nick who's sleeping on the couch. He must be really tired cause once we got home he just crashed on the couch without even bothering to change his clothes. I was tired to but I can't sleep because what happened to us in that freaky mausoleum still haunts me. The irony huh. Well, I decided just to shake it off.the 


I left Nick's snoring session and went to the downstairs bathroom next to the kitchen. I was about to close the door when a cold feeling washed over me. I felt my face turn pale and my eyes darted around the bathroom and I began to sweat. Like real bad. I almost made a jump for the door when I heard a sweet humming coming from behind the shower curtain cause I can see a silhouette of a woman, her long hair and back in front me. My curiosity compels me to open the shower curtain but the scared part of my brain is telling me to get the hell out of there. But my curiosity won. With trembling hands, I grip the shower curtain and drew it to side to see nothing. No humming and no woman. I feel like crying but got a hold of myself. I exhaled slowly and then one question screams inside my head. WHAT THE FUDGE WAS THAT?! I turned around and opened the door to get out of the bathroom, still spooked by what happened to me. I'm more scared of what happened here in my own home than the one in the cemetery. I shudder and closed the door behind me.


I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water to calm myself and saw that Nick was already up and helping himself to a glass of milk. I told myself to act normal and forget that creepy woman in my bathroom.


"I see you're up Sleeping Beauty.", I sat beside Nick.


" Last night was creepy. I think it got the best of me and drained all my strength. Thanks for the couch. It was comfortable.", Nick smiled.


" Thanks for saving me or whatever.", I smiled back. " Nick can you please stay here for a little while. I don't want to be alone after what happened last night." I don't want to tell him about what happened in the bathroom or he'll never come here again. I swear, I know.


"Well, if you insist. I'll tell my parents I'm gonna stay here a few days. Don't worry they won't mind. ", he patted my head and smiled that prince charming smile of his.


I smiled like an idiot at him and he laughed at my reaction.


Right now, I just don't want to be alone. I just hope that no more of these happenings will happen again.
