There (Haunted)

Chapter five

Footsteps fill the new house as my stepfather climbs the double stairs, yes it's a cottage with double stairs!

"Hey Becca, hey Harry. Becs I have some more boxes of yours in here, books, DVD's, um paranormal things, is that what it says? Sorry I can't understand you upside down writing!" Andrew says, and I see Harry look at me.

"Thanks." I say and he hands me my box. "What?" I glance at Harry who is still staring at me with one eyebrow up.

"Nothing" He looks down and runs his fingers threw his dark brown hair and looks up again. " it's just, paranormal? When were you interested in ghosts?" He laughs and I roll my eyes. By this time Andrew has gone, luckily.

"Erm since two years ago when I was in year seven and there was rumours that the school was haunted, we used to tell ghost stories, mine were all ways the best and we did something called the ouija board, you know the thing that supposed to let out the spirits?"

"Um yeah, I've heard off it, never did it though." Harry replied.

"Well after that I started looking into paranormal activity and got into it. So I asked for books and rented some horror movies. They were pretty cool, and I guess I got addicted!"

"Yeah, horror movies are the best!" He picks up one of my favourite movies and puts it on my desk. I walk over to the box and grab a bunch to put away. I pause suddenly as I hear little footsteps behind me. I turn round to see a little boy with short blonde hair.

"Hey Finn." I say, he grins and runs off.

"Okay then." and I continue to unpack and I faintly hear Harry laugh but as I turn to look at him his smiled is wiped of his face and he's looking past me, through the hall way and looking into the spare room, which is meant to be locked.

"Harry?" I squeak.

I know what he's looking at. Its open! But know ones been near that door for at least two months! The spare room! That's the one me and George didn't like, where we found the door and the writing with that horrible wallpaper! What does it say though? We own the house now, so i'm allowed to go in there and snoop. More faster footsteps stop my thoughts and I see a tall boy, fourteen, my age.

"What are you guys staring at?" Jack, my other stepbrother says as he turns around to look at what we're staring. He can tell somethings wrong so he decides to walk towards the door.

"Jack stop!" Harry yells. I rush forward in front of Jack and turn round blocking the door.

"Erm, Jack, do down and ask my mum and auntie Anna who opened the spare room door, okay?" I say to him. He may be older then me but I don't think twice to boss him around. He agrees and turns around then dashes down stairs. I look over to Harry who's still glancing at the half open door. I put my head threw the door but I can't see anything as it's two dark, news paper is covering the small window. That wasn't there before!

"Becca?" I hear a little girls voice next to me, I look down and see my stepsister, Julie.

"hey Julie!" I quickly say before backing up a little to cover the gab between me and the room.

"Dad and Helen's coming, they told me to tell you." she tells me. It's takes me a few moment to realise that Helen is my mum, I never call her that so sometimes I don't remember! Julie wanders off and I soon see my mum and my auntie cloning up the stairs.

"Hey, the doors open, we were wondering who opened it?" I ask my mum.

"Oh wel..." My mum begins before Harry interrupts her.

"B-Becca..." Harry stutters.

"What Harry?" I ask.

"One, I thought I just saw something in there!" we all stare at Harry then into the dark room, all of us stick in position. "And two it's still locked, it's not even bin unlocked!" He exclaims, and he's right, know ones even touch the door since we looked at the house, what is going on?!
