I lick away the remains of the delightful sweet cherry red liquid from my lips, treading my way out of the woods. The morning sun glimmers through the branches of the trees.

I rub my eyes with the palm of my hands feeling the tiredness catching up with me, I had to wake up early to eat. I didn't want someone to see me eating, they could've put me off my food and I'll tell you. It's not easy trying to look for rabbits, they little fuckers are fast and well I know you probably think I am, I'm really not. Zooming helps out a lot but there's only so much a person can take before having to empty their insides with the rapid movement.

A feel a vibration coming from my back pocket making me jump
slightly at the sudden awakening of my phone. I pull it out from my pocket intrigued to see who's trying to contact me, my stomach knotted excitedly.

The name 'Frank' flashes up on my phone, alerting me that he has sent me a text.

"Are you doing anything later? Frnkxox"

I bite my lip eagerly replying to him quickly, wait what if I send it too quick and he thinks I'm weird? What if he thinks I'm obsessed with him and I stayed up all night to wait for him to text? Don't be so ridiculous, just send the message. But what if-. Send the goddamn text or I will. Sent.

"No probably not, would you like to do something? Gee x"

I hadn't noticed that had I stopped walking before looking up from my phone, holding it securely in my hand as I continue walk, starting to see houses coming into the scene.

Finally I make my way out from the woods and begin to keep on walking until I hear a small high pitched screech, it gradually became louder and eventually reaching to a deafening pitch.

I bring my hands up to my ears and try and shut the noise out from my head but it just got even higher and insanely louder.

My eyelids squeezing together tightly, my bandy legs instantly collapsing underneath me, I hit the ground hard on my knees.

A small hiss escapes through my clenched teeth, I try and stand up from the ground but the sound being too powerful for me to concentrate on something other than the pain that is being stricken through my brain.

Suddenly it's silent, I very slowly pry open on eye, I only see that I'm still on the ground and the houses are still ahead of me.

I look around warily and I'm actually kind of surprised that I'm all alone, I dust myself off and slowly make my way onto my feet, trying to regain my balance.

I slowly start to keep on walking and I begin to hear the faint whispers, just like the other day. Panic clouds over my vision and they get louder and faster. Too many people whispering at once.

I try and push the sound away but walking a little quicker, they don't shut up and I'm starting to get angry. Why won't whatever this is leave me alone? Am I going crazy? Is this only going on in my head?

With that thought in mind I see the familiar blur rush past my eyes, the whip of air brushing off me.

I feel my hands start to feel clammy and sweaty, I push them down the material of my jeans to dry them a little.

I move my legs at a faster pace to get away, I'm soon in the view of houses around me.

I look back cautiously to see that nothing is there, not even one person stood there alone, it was empty of people.

I turn back round and head straight home without looking back, unlocking my door and entering, finally feeling a lot more safe than being outside.

I pat down the front pockets of my jeans as I feel for my phone, patting down the back ones whilst feeling the rectangular device.
