"Oh yes there is"------------
Oh shit. They know I'm here.
Shit, shit shit shit.
I turned on my heel and ran back up the stairs into my parents room.
I locked the door, and fetched the baseball bat I know my dad kept under the bed.
I ran into the en suite bathroom and sat on the toilet, trying to steady my breath. I couldn't jump out the window, as I'm on the second story and its a high jump. I dialled my Mums number with shaking hands and waited for her to pick up.
"Hi this is Melissa Harvey's phone, sorry I couldn't answer your call, I'll get back to you as soon as possible"
Voicemail , are you kidding me.
I rang my dad, but he didn't pick up either.
How much bad fucking luck can I get tonight.
My eyes widened, as I heard boots coming up the stairs.
I was in full panic mode, chewing on my lip.
'Fuck it, I'm calling the police' I thought.
Just as I was about to dial the number, the handle to the door shook.
"They're in here" a male voice called, the same one from downstairs.
"Oh my god, I'm gonna die" I whispered.
'No, you're not, now dial the police you idiot' my subconscious reminded me .
I dialled the number just as the door flew open, and I let out a squeal.
It was the first time I'd got a glimpse of the intruder. Unfortunately he had a mask on. He seemed to catch on to what I was doing once he saw the phone in my hand.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you" he said warningly.
I gulped, and pressed call.
He flew across the room, ready to grab the phone out if my hands.
I got the bat and swung just as he approached the bathroom door, but he dodged and grabbed my wrist, ending the call.
I struggled out if his grip and swung the bat again at his legs. He let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground.
I took that opportunity to drop the bat and jump over him, ready to flee the room. However, he caught my leg just as I reached the door, causing me to fall.
I kicked and struggled, but he seemed to regain his strength, and stand back up. I scrambled to my feet , and ran out of the room, down the stairs.
Keep in mind I was only dressed in underwear and a tee shirt.
I heard him run after me, and I began to panic. I ran into my kitchen, looking for a knife to grab.
He caught up, and suddenly a hand grabbed me by the waist, and another covered my mouth.
I let out a scream, and fought against him, screeching for him to let me go.
I got loose and turned to swing a punch at the guy. He avoided the swing, and shoved me against the wall.
"Shut up and stop" he growled.
"Get the fuck away from me" I spat, lashing out.
He was much stronger than me, so he seemed barely affected by my hits.
"Hey man, you good?" Ian came from the hallway, carrying a rucksack.
"Yeah, go get what we need, and hurry! We gotta get out of here" he said.
Ian nodded and ran into the living room, and I heard him poking around.
"Hey. Stop! That's ours you robbing bastard, stop" I screamed after him.
The guy who had me pinned against the wall shook me and pinned me harder.
"Are you the only one in the house" he asked.
I scoffed. "Get off of me" I spat, struggling.
I had an idea.
I bit harshly into the arm that was pinned across my chest, and the guy growled. His grip loosened.
I managed to get one arm free, and grabbed the top of his mask.
I pulled it off, and suddenly the world stopped.
I dropped the guys mask and stopped struggling.
"Shawn?" I breathed out.
"Shit" he muttered.
