The Haunting

Chapter 10

                       I couldn't  sleep that night at all, things were just flowing in my head, was she really there, with my sister? I was on my phone all night, I couldn't believe what happened, was she dead?

  The next morning I didn't feel like going to school at all, but someone had to tell Megan, and I wanted to do it in person. I threw on a black pair of leggings, a light blue hoodie, and some white converse. I threw mu hair up in a messy bun. I didn't wear any makeup because I was lazy. I then ran out to the bus stop and waited for the bus, what seemed like 40 minutes the bus had finally stopped. I got on the bus and I immediately looked for Megan but she wasn't on the bus anywhere, she probably ditched school again. I texted her and she replied fast, she said

"I hate school, and tell Alex I said hi.

"I didn't want to tell her so soon I was to scared."

I texted back saying, 

"Hi, where are you I don't see you?"

It took a while for her to answer. The bus finally stopped at the school, she still never replied back. I walked off the bus and into the school.

  I decided when I got to school I would go to the nurse and pretend im sick so I don't have to deal with the teachers and other annoying students, I was not in the mood for other people's drama. 

I walked in the school and headed straight towards the nurses office. 

"Hi, what do you need today?" Ms. Caine asks.

"I'm not feeling very well, I threw up this morning and my mom made me still go to school." I say while putting my hand on my for head as if I was sick.

"Well let me check your temperature." She says pulling a drawer and reaching in to get a thermometer. 

She puts a thing in my ear to check my temperature.

"Well it looks normal." she says looking at the thermometer.

I run to the bathroom and act like i'm throwing up.  The nurse looks at me and says, 

"Come on your going home, lets call your mom"

"Thank you." I say getting to get a drink of water from the fountain.

I sat there waiting for my mom to come. She finally arrived and walked into the school, and trust me she looked more pissed than ever, she walked into the nurse's room and gave me an evil glare.

"Your not sick." 

I tried not to look directly into her eyes. I looked blankly at the ground as if I was sick.

"I..I am." I stuttered to make it more believable. 

"Whatever get in the car, you have a lot of cleaning to do."

I just stared at her without saying a word and walked to the car slowly.  As I walked out to the car I remembered I had to tell Megan about Alex. Just remembering made me want to actually get sick, I figured I would tell her at the park or something. What kind of sick game are these people playing? 

We drove home in silence. I just sat there remembering all the fun I had with Alex and that it was all gone. Was she dead? My head was pounding with all these thoughts. Megan didn't know and I didn't think I should tell her, I mean who would believe me? 

I walked in the house and went straight to my room to call Megan.

"Hey, can you drive me somewhere I have a lot to tell you and i'm afraid you won't believe me.:

It took her a while to respond.

"Umm.... sure, ok where?"

"Just pick me up at my house."

"Ok, be there in ten."

"Ok... thanks." I say hanging up the phone and quietly head downstairs.

I stand outside for like twenty minutes playing a random game on my phone, and she still wasn't here after thirty minutes. 

"I swear to god if she bailed on me.." I said out loud.
