The Old Brick House

When the stuff started happening

Me and my "maid boy" (still havent asked his name) were still fixing up the house when he spoke up "I think maybe you should get a dog, this is a dangerous neighborhood." I smiled appreciating his wanting to to keep me safe. "Maybe we can go together tomorrow, make it a date?" My heart raced, "Of course, sounds like fun!" "Nice girl" we both starting laughing.

I stopped cleaning because of hunger, and went into the kitchen to fix our supper. I walked outside first to warm up because the house is freezing. I looked down and there was a note. I picked it up and it read

  New people, nice looking girl, handsome boy. I'll have fun with them, I promise Mom. Please dont hurt me anymore. I love you mom.

I dropped the note and ran into the house. "By the way my name is Jacob Grier." I ran to him and dragged him to the note. His jaw dropped, "what is this" I shrugged my shoulders. He locked all doors and said I needed some sleep so I nodded and headed to bed.

I woke up around 3 and heard a little girls laugh, creeped out, I tip toed down stairs to Jacobs room. I creaked open the door,  he was sitting up staring at the window, he jumped when I walked in. "Sorry to frighten you." He smiled. "What's up?" I was afraid to tell him, but I did anyway."I heard a little girl, mind if I sleep down here tonight?" "course not." I smiled, got under the covers and went to sleep.
