ghost; notice me

warming up...

At the time when this happened I was 13 years old. I am a female and live in a detached house. I live in a pretty good neighbourhood and I was always obsessed with horror stories. I was in my freshman year of high school so I didn't have a lot of friends, just one friend who lived pretty far away from me but went to the same school as I did. Everyday I would go to school around 7:45, I bike to school on a lonely path and trough open fields. The last couple of minutes from my way to school there actually were buildings. To get to my school you have to bike past an abandoned apartment complex. According to many stories it was supposed to be haunted. The apartment complex was ones a place where all the staff of the retirement home lived. The building eventually didn't reach the high standards of the government anymore and got abandoned. A lot of the freshman of my school would go there in day time and wouldn't find anything creepy. Though nobody ever went higher than the 5th floor. The complex had a small lobby on the bottom where the repair man would sit and on every floor there would be 2 apartments. There actually was an elevator but it got stuck on the 3rd floor after which fireman had to break it open to release the 2 guys stuck inside of it. Since the accidents they put wood in front of every window to keep the kids out. There are no security cameras around the building so there is nobody but the people from our school to keep the kids out. On the side of complex there is a small garage where the people had their storage closets. There was one open window we could climb trough, and because it is connected to the lobby it is the only way to get in the complex. The balcony's of the complex are facing the house across the street from the complex and a pretty calm road.

So now this is said, we can get into the actual story. I didn't really have any friends in highschool due to bullying and people making fun of me whenever, wherever. In my freshman year of highschool I made some wrong friends. They were smoking, doing drugs and dropping out of school, even though they were all around the age of 17. I became friends with one of the girls, we'll name her Kelly for further reference. We hung out a lot and she introduced me to the free life. I decided to just go with it since I had nothing to lose whatsoever. So when she decided to take me to her little group of friends I couldn't say no. Once I got there, there was an apartment filled with the smell of alcohol and pee. I didn't really know what to do at that point and followed Kelly towards the living room. In the livingroom I found some of her friends, one of them named Skyler. This is also important. Skyler and I started dating after about a week and were hanging out a lot. One day Skyler told me to skip school and go with him and his friends. I didn't know what we were going to do but everything sounded better than math class so I went with them. We all got into joe's car (pronounced joey) and drove for a little while. When we stopped in front of the 'ghost complex' my heart sunk. Though I really didn't want to get in I knew I had Kelly and Skyler there to protect me.

As soon as we entered the storage room I got chills all over my arms and legs. It smelled weird and there felt something horribly wrong. We went to the staircase and climbed up to the first floor, we tried both doors but they were locked.
