Audacious

Her

Chapter 3:

I would've showed my mom these marks but I knew she was sleeping and she'd be mad if I woke her. I'd show my dad but he is still at work. Its around 6:30, I'm hungry and its dinner time. I go downstairs, make myself some soup and start to think about today. It all started happening at Nicole's house, what if that ghost girl followed me? Elena has told me before that ghosts are known to follow people. Oh no I hope not, no I'm just going to eat this, go for a walk and sleep, I'm going to forget about this.

Its getting dark out so I hurry up and put my boots on. Once I'm outside, I cross my street and look up at my house to see if there are any figures by the windows but nothing is there. I start walking down the street and I see my boyfriend Thomas.

"Thomas! I yell and run to him.

"Hi Alyssa" He says as I hug him, he kisses my forehead.

"Why are you walking around? It's getting dark" he looks down at me while I'm still in his arms.

"I just needed some fresh air" I smiled.

"Alright well Im heading home now, I'd ask you to come with me but my house is very messy right now. Ill call you in like an hour. Hey can you please go home too, its getting dark and I'll be worrying about you. "

"Oh yea okay, love you" I said and gave him a kiss.

"Thanks love you too, text me when you get to your house so I know you're safe." We both went our separate ways after our last hug.
I was walking up the hill to my house when I slipped on acorn. My knee started to hurt, even though I got hurt, I found this funny because i slipped on an acorn haha.

   I got to my house and it was 8 o'clock, I went to my room and changed into my pajamas. I looked at my knee and a bruise was beginning to form, oh poop. I layed on my bed and began to fall asleep, I figured I'd wake up when Thomas called so I just let sleep come over me.

(few hours later)

I began to wake up as it was extremely cold and I could smell something. What was that smell? It smelt awful, as if it was meat, what the hell? I was about to turn my lamp on when I heard a giggle or did I hear a giggle? I was unsure, I went to lean to my lamp again when I heard another giggle, but this time it sounded evil. I sat in my bed and wrapped myself in my blankets, I know they cant save me but its a calming method I guess.

   "Who's there? Please leave me alone." I said and I heard a soft chuckle. Why is this voice always laughing, say something. I stayed quiet as I heard a creek come from my closet. My heart started beating, please no please. Long, skinny, fingers grabbed the door sliding it to the side, I wanted to cry, all I saw in the closet was darkness. I was too scared to move, I felt paralyzed. I felt coldness flow throughout my body as my eyes stayed wide. My chest felt heavy as the silence continued. Suddenly I see a figure taking slow steps, it was her. The girl I saw as a child. I felt my stomach drop as I analysed the intruder. Her long dark hair matched mine, her grey eyes stared at me as if she want to go to the deepest part of my mind and tear out my soul. I wanted to disapear from this moment, but what am I to do?

  "Hello" her voice was so soft yet so terrifying. She took one step and it felt as if the breath was knocked out of me.
 
   "Dont be rude" she said lowering her head, her eyes never leaving mine.

  "Im sorry, I'm just so.." I stopped because I knew she could already sense the fear running from my body. I didn't know what to say. I knew she could hurt me, I knew she could take me away, so I stayed quiet waiting for her to speak. She rose her head again and a flash of evil crossed her eyes, but only for a second. Her white dress flowed and I couldn't see her feet, her skin looked so pale.

"Alyssa. I know what you desire."

"Wha-at do you mean?" I studdered.
"I know what you've been missing. And I can give you what you need."

I stayed silent for her to continue.
"But you can get it only if you leave." She looked at me with a straight face and glaring eyes.

"Leave where?"
She didnt respond, she only smirked.
"Where?" I asked again.
She turned to the closet to leave when I sat up a bit and said
"Wait."
She stopped and looked over her shoulder.
"Are you coming back?"
She stayed silent for a moment.

"Yes. Ill be back here tomorrow, at the same time. Give me an answer then."
Before I could say anything else, a strong wind came as she walked into the closet with the door slamming shut.

   It was still cold. I turned the light on and slowly walked to the closet. I turned the closet light on and began to slide the door open. Scary thoughts popped in my head, what if she were to jump out at any moment. I looked around and saw nothing there but clothes. I pushed the clothes aside and saw a crack on the wall, about as long as my finger. I shut the door and left my room, I was sleeping in the living room tonight with the tv on. It was hard to sleep, I couldnt stop thinking of her.
