As I ran off, I briefly looked back and saw the boy climbing down the ladder. I ran all the way to my old house and opened the door. I walked in and took in the sight. For the 11 years that no one has been in here, it looks the same. I walked around my house for a while and just looked. I was slightly startled by my stomach growling, so I decided to see if any food in the pantry was still edible.
I found a can of fruit and some soup that wasn't that expired and decided to eat it. I sat down at the kitchen table and opened the can of fruit. I took off my hood and went to place my hat on the table, but it wasn't there. "Crap"
It must've fallen off when I was running here.
I was absolutely terrified and almost jumped out of my skin when I heard someone step into the front porch. I looked out the window and saw the same red haired boy from earlier, and he was holding my hat! What he did next, only confused me more; he knocked on the door 5 times. In the same rhythm as when I wanted to make sure Sam knew it was me at the door.
I walked slowly to the door and cracked it open. The boy looked up from the floor and his eyes widened as he saw me. I swiftly took my hat from him and put it on my head. He just stood there staring at me.
"Well, are you coming in?" I asked.
He stuttered out a "sure" and came inside, shutting the door behind him.
"So, who are you and how do you know Sam?" I interrogated.
"Well, um, I'm Mark Fischbach and I was Sam's boyfriend before she went missing."
I looked at him suspiciously, "Sam never mentioned having a boyfriend"
"Her parents didn't really like me, so we kept it kinda secret"
"Do you know who I am?" I asked him.
"Sean McLaughlin?"
I cringed at my real name, "please call me Jack...Are you here to tease me or call me a worthless piece of crap?" I asked rather violently.
"No! Not at all!" He said, putting his hands up defensively. "I need your help"
"With what?"
"My sister is dying and you are the only person I know that can help her"
"I'll help you with one condition"
"What?" He asked curiously.
"You tell me all you know about people like me" I said as his eyes widen and he gets a questioning look on his face."what?! No one ever told me!"
The lets out a giggle and reaches out a hand and I shake it.
"Deal"
