My GF @HarleenQuinsel part of my story and I gladly agreed! Hope you enjoy!

Each and everyone of us froze. The only sound to be heard was the sniffles from Jenna and the vomiting from Troy. The door bell rung and I slowly made my way down. As I opened the door, a cheery girl smiled and waved. "Hi! I'm Haley! I'm your new neighbour!" She looked Round my house and saw the depression going around. "Oh uh... Sorry to barge in like that." She looked down. "No it's OK. We recently lost a friend so..." I smiled. "Alexis? Yeah. She was my friend too." She twisted her foot. "Come in." I smiled. She smiled back and walked in. "Nice house." She commented. "Thanks." I rubbed my neck and Troy soon came down, pale as ever. "I'm good..." He moaned. Andrew sat h down and we all chatted. "Yeah." Haley sighed. "Just yesterday. I got a message from someone and it was suppose to be a house warming gift. But it ended up being Alexis's arm. Hand and all." She hugged herself and Jessica hugged her as well. "Just last night o got something similar. Except it was her head." I coughed in my words and sighed. "Oh my god!" Haley's eyes widened and she hugged me tightly. I hugged back and we all decided to change the topic. We introduced Haley to the city and explained how school was and where everything was. It was about 11:00 when Haley said she had to leave. Just as she went to open the door, there was a knock. I shit off the lights and looked up. "Who is it?" She whispered. "It's your dad, I think." She opened the door a d her dad stood there with a smile. "Haley, time to come home." He said. "Oh. If it's OK, she can spend the night with us!" The 5 of us waves calmly and the dad nodded. "That would be lovely. As long as she's back by 11 tomorrow!" He waved good bye and we smiled, closing the door.

At roughly 2:00am, we decided to hit the sack (go to sleep). We all laid down and I waited for silence to fill the house. Not even a minute later, nothing but the gusts of wind were heard from outside. Just as I closed my eyes. I heard a loud thud from outside. Obviously wasn't the only one because Haley sat up just as quickly as I did. We looked at eachother and out the back door. "Did you hear that?" I asked, gulping quietly. She nodded and stood up. "Is someone here?" She looked back at me. "No. It's too late anyways." I followed behind her as she opened the front door. No van, luckily. But yet the sound echoed again. "Lets go." She whispered and walked out. I followed and closes the door gently. We walked over to the side of my house and turned on the light on my phone. "Hey." Haley called as an old man looked at us. He stood up and started walking towards up. We took off back into the house, locking doors and windows. "Guys!" I whisper shouted to wake up my friends. Just as I said that, the man pounded against the window roughly. "Go away!" Haley screamed, grabbing g a knife from the kitchen. Jessica began to scream and cry. Troy called 911 but the phone was off the line and no service was working...
