Calum's Pov;

I have had a really hard day at work as always.I work in a coffee shop called starbucks and busy days like today really knock me off my feet.It don't pay that much money but its enough to keep me going.When my shift ends,all I want to do is sleep.So that's what I ended up doing.Sleeping.I turned off all the lights in my three bedroom apartment,grabbed a blanket,and snuggled my self down on the couch.I like sleep.A lot.I suppose you could say I'm a two timer?I share my love for two things in the world.Food and Sleep.(Three if you include Michael haha,But I don't love him In that way)I don't have time to fall in love with girls.Wait.Scrap that.There hasn't been any girls that I've saw who I could find myself falling for.I just hope the lucky lady comes along soon,I dont want it to be too late,I'm always too late.

It was now five minutes later and my eyelids grew really heavy,really fast.Before I knew it,In Three,Two,One...I had fallen deep into my slumber.I began to dream.My dreams happen to be urm whats the word?Yeah!Unique.I had a dream that Michael was sitting on my feet,eating pizza,and watching frozen.Only to leave a big surprise for when I woke up Maybe that wasn't a dream?

And three,two,one,I was back in the room. My eyes blinked a couple of times before I could open them fully,due to the blinding light up above me.No silly,I know what your thinking,No I'm not on about Jesus or God or Heaven or anything like that.That's not what I meant .It was just a normal light bulb,Just a ordinary lightbulb.But,Wait.I turned off the light before I went to sleep.

I stood up and saw a empty pizza box on my coffee stand.What the hell?Someone is in my apartment.And to be honest it scared the shit out of me.I grabbed what I saw first,A tv remote.That's right.I was going to use a tv remote as a weapon,thats if I needed a weapon.And yes.Before you ask,It happens to be very deadly and can easily turn off the power of something,Or well at least thats what it does to my Television.I scratched my head,It kinda hurt from me overthinking.Then all of a sudden.

Tap tap tap.

Someone is definitely in here,I thought to myself.I was freaking out like proper bad.I had to calm down.I tried to slow my breathing down by inhaling and exhaling.It didn't really work.My heart began to pulsate really fast.Then, It happened again.

Tap tap tap.

Is that footsteps?

Tap tap tap.

I turn around and did some like ninja fucking James Bond move.With my arms bent and hands close to my ears,Gripping tightly to my very very deadly weapon, I was ready to attack.With that,I remembered to bend my legs ready to pounce.

Tap tap tap.

There in front of me.It was there.A dark figure stood there,Looming around my living room.I couldn't make out its face but oh my god, did it look scary as hell.
