One day

CHAPTER 14

What the hell was going on. I ran over to my dresser and pulled the drawer open and grabbed the book I had found. Nothing new I could find about my house. I had an idea. The little brother was still alive.

"Lilly! Dinner!"

"Coming!" I ran downstairs.

"We are having pizza. Go wash your hands and sit down." I walked over the bathroom and In the mirror it wrote "R U having a nice stay?" It was written in lipstick. I didn't wanna question it so I turned off the sink and walked quickly out of the bathroom. I turned my head to look behind me.

"Lilly!" My mom shouted when I felt myself fall to the floor. I had knocked the pizza out of my moms hands and tripped backwards on to the floor.

"Can you do anything right!" My mom shouted madly and bent down to clean up the pizza.

"I... I'm sorry." I ran out the back door into the backyard and down into the cellar and locked the doors behind me. It was dark down there. I sat on one of the tops steps and cried. I didn't care how creepy it looked down there. I didn't care that I might actually die from whatever is haunting this house. I felt as if there was a bad spirit and a good spirit. It was weird.

"You ok?" Liam. Great. Just who I needed.

"Wonderful" I wiped the tears from my eyes.

"Talk to me."

"I don't know you!

"I'm just trying t-"

"What's going on. What is haunting us? Why are YOU hurting us! Leave us alone!"

"It's not me."

"Then who is it!"

"My sister."

"Vanessa."

"Tell her to leave us alone!"

"She hates me. She says I'm the reason our family is dead except my brother. She swore until forever that she was gonna haunt this house and killed any family that lives here. I'm doing my best to protect you."

"I don't need some asshole with scars protecting me."

"Lilly stop. I know you just are pushing me away. But you doing this isn't gonna make me leave. I can't leave this house but as long as your here I'm sticking by your side. I really like you Lilly..."

"Oh thank you. My hero." Sarcasm ran threw my voice. "Just leave me alone please."

"Fine." His voice filled with hurt and he was gone. The short haired cut boy was no longer holding my knee. His comfort actually felt nice I felt kinda safe when I was with him.

"You have been warned Lilly." Vanessa. Not what I need right now.

"Leave us alone Vanessa." She giggled. "What do you want!"

"You." And I was tossed down the stairs. "I can't be happy anymore. You shouldn't be either."

"Why what did I do to you!" I was in so much pain. Then I heard banging on the door to get in hear. Great who was that.

"I just think we could be good friends Lilly." I was laying on my side and could feel kicks going into me as a peak of light came from the top of the stairs.

"Never!" I shouted.

"Your little brother is more adorable anyway." The kicking stopped and I laid there in pain.

"Lilly!" Derricks voice filled my ears. He ran over to me and threw me over his shoulder. Ever since the whole basement thing me and him had been a lot closer.

"Thank you." I managed to spit out.

"Oh my gosh what happened!" My mom said panicked. Yah act like you actually care mom.

"He fell. I'm gonna take her up to her room." He set down the flashlight and took me to my room.

"Thank you." I pulled the covers over myself and sat up.

"I... I talked to Vanessa and Liam." I told him everything and he sat there in shock.

"Let's find there little brother. Maybe he can help us." He had some hope in his voice.

"That's actually a good idea."

"What's his name?" I pointed to the book.

"Grab it." He walked over the the corner of the room and picked up the brown book and walked back over to me then sat next to me as we flipped threw the book looking for some clue as to what his name was

"Tyler Doxson"

"I think he's in one of my classes!" Tyler looked exited.

"Now what? You just walk up to him and say 'oh hey I live in the house your family died in wanna come over?'"

"No become friends with him." He walked out of my room.
