I groaned as I woke up and felt the sun's rays on my face. I turned over and got ready to get up but stopped as I felt someone on top of me. I laughed quietly to myself "Good morning, Cole." I leaned up to kiss him and bumped something hard. I opened my eyes slowly and came face to face with an all white face and screamed. The figure rolled off me and hit the floor laughing, before pulling off the mask. "Farah you asshole!" I shouted while looking for something to thump her with. "Ewwww. Aloe tried to kiss me!" Farah laughed and ran out the room. I got up after her and attempted to run out the door, but slipped on the covers she had left behind. Cole shot up and looked around wearily. "What the hell is going on??" he asked sleepily. "Ahhhh, Prince Charming finally awakes after World War III happens! Can you please help me up?" I said snarkily. I screamed as i flew into the air and landed on the bed. "Quick enough for you?" he asked with a smirk. I grabbed his ankles and laughed as he fell back down on his bed, before crawling on top of him and kissing his soft lips. I muttered into the kiss "Very quick, you sarcastic ass."
I tip-toed out the room and grinned in satisfaction as I saw Farah looking unaware. I crept up behind her slowly using my awesome ninja skills. Cole was in his room sleeping again, so the coast was clear. "Banzaiiiii!" I yelled before pulling Farah's pajamas down and running downstairs. Not looking to see if she was chasing me, I just heard her yelling my name mixed with a string of profanitites. I yelled back, "Payback's a bitch!" I ran into the side door of Cole's room and locked both doors. I jumped onto Cole's bed and shook him awake. "Where's my bag? I need to use your shower!" I asked excitedly. "Why don't you use the one in the hall?" he asked. "Because your sisters trying to kill me!" I replied. His eyes widened in understanding and he tossed me my bag before leading me over to his shower. I kissed him longingly and shut the door before turning on the water. I laughed to myself as I heard Cole consoling an angry Farah. I unzipped my bag and moaned as I took in the sight of clean clothes. Creepy face or not, I was slightly mortified I had slept with Cole and not showered previously. Glad was an understatement.
I turned the water on before stripping my grimy clothes off and slipping into the hot water. I moaned as it soothed my aching muscles and relaxed as the past two days events went through my mind. Who the hell was this Slenderman and why was he praying on me? 16 years and not one remotely paranormal experience had occured so why was this fake ass Man in Black stalking me? I thought about Martha and wondered if she was safe. I may not like the fat bastard but she's all I got left. I pushed those thoughts to the back of my mind and shampooed my hair. I relished the strawberry banana scent before washing it out and turning off the water. I dried off and walked out with the towel covering my body and locked Cole's door so he wouldn't see me naked. I changed into a navy blue cardigan with a black longsleeved tee and blue jeans with black boots. I opened the door and went and searched for Farah and Cole. I found them lying on the kitchen floor pointing at the ceiling. "That one looks like orion!" Cole said with a smile. "Ummmm. What are you two doing?" "Just a little brother/sister bonding time," Farah said. I rolled my eyes and motioned for them to follow me into their large living room.
I always liked coming over here because their house was always large and semi empty! I sat down at the computer and pulled google up. "Why are we watching you web search?" Cole asked. I shushed him and typed in the name the being gave me in the search bar. "Really? You're googling a paranormal stalker?" Farah questioned sarcasrically. "Dude. It's fucking google. What can't they find?" I replied. My point was proven as millions of results showed up in front of me. I stuck my tongue out at Farah and clicked on the top link. It took me to a website called creepypasta.org and I started reading. "Der Grosman" I questioned out loud, "What the hell is a Der Grosman and why is it looking for me?" A thousand thoughts were racing through my mind and my heart was beating like an African drum. How the hell was I supposed to survive a ruthless hunter who can't be killed? I didn't even know I was sobbing until I felt a finger brush something wet off my cheek. "It'll be ok Aloe. You have us here to help you." I heard Cole whisper into my ear. I got up and hugged him tightly, just letting the tears flow down freely. I turned to look at Farah and was puzzled. She just sat there staring at the screen. She knew what we were truly up against now and was deathly afraid to face it.
