A Stormy House-A Creepypasta Fanfiction

(5)Food!

~Sam's POV~

I carefully tucked Josh in, giving him a pill before doing so. They seemed to be working, and they only side effect was the drowsiness. I wonder if there was any more serious side effects that could be caused by them. I walked out of the room while reading the bottle. I took a look out at the surrounding forest. The trees seemed menacing in the moonlight.

A breeze blew through me, chilling my arms. I shivered in my jacket, but continued reading the bottle anyways. I'd read it already, but I wanted to make sure I hadn't missed anything. Soon, though, I retreated from the cold wind and back into our room. I closed the makeshift door, using an old chain to keep it closed. I laid down beside my brother, laying on the floor because he was on the bed. I sang as I watched over him, but I soon dozed off.

~That Eavesdropper's POV~

I crept through the window as the two kids slept. They had done good to fortify their little space, but they left one of their windows unblocked. Dropping down silently, I draped the blanket I carried over the girl's body as she shivered on the ground. I set the bag beside them, hoping that they wouldn't be afraid to eat it.

Afterwards, I took one last look at the two kids before slipping back out into the menacing looking trees.

~Sam's POV~

I woke up to the sound of slurping.

"Josh what's t- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" In my boy's hands was a jar a peachs. It was almost completely gone.

"Th-they were just sitting here. I'm sorry! I was hungry and they were just sitting there!" He whimpered slightly as I yanked the can from his hands.

"They could be poisoned! You don't just eat something off the ground!"

"But I feel fine!"

I looked at him up and down before sniffing the food. They didn't smell weird. I set the can down and began searching through the bag. He was right, in a way. If somebody wanted us killed, they wouldn't have poisoned us, they would've done it while we slept. I checked all the cans, they were all sealed. There were a few cans of fruit, a few more cans of vegetables, and almost a dozen cans of soup in the fabric shopping bag.

"Here." I handed him the can of fruit. He smiled and began scarfing it down again. I opened one of them too, slurping the juice the munching on the peaches in it.

"Can I have another?"

"Have a vege one this time." I grabbed one and opened it for him.

"Aww, but I like the fruit and green beans are gross!"

"Come on Joshy, you can't just eat the fruit!"

He pouted at me, but eventually took the can. He gave a look of disgust as he ate the food. He hadn't eaten in a couple days, he deserved to eat as much as he wanted.

After he ate three and a half (my green beans) he said he was full for now. I finished my second can and tossed it to the pile we made in the corner.

"Sister?"

"Yeah?"

"I have to go pee."

~Eavesdropper POV~

After the kids had left their little room, I entered and took a look at how many they had eaten. The boy, I knew, had eaten more because I saw his small pile of cans from my place outside their window. The girl, I don't really understand her. She seemed to want to protect the boy from any harm. They were siblings apparently, though I should have known. Though, they don't really look alike. Their hair was golder, sure, but it was different shades and that was all. Her hair was darker and thicker while his was a lot lighter and thinner. But that's just hair. Their eyes, though I hadn't gotten a good look, weren't the same. That could just be a coincidence though.

The boy's head is still wrapped in those bandages, but I guess they don't have any fresh ones anyways. Perhaps I should get them more? And some actual painkillers, not those drugs those graffiti artists left here. I don't think Sammy would be to happy if she found out what was really in that bottle.

And water. They must be so thirsty, seeing as the only thing they've drunk was a bit of water from the creak. This time, though, I'll leave a note, I don't want Sammy to become startled when things start appearing while they sleep.

~Josh's POV~

My stomach feels so awesome now! I'm not hungry, and my isn't throbbing! I wonder who it was that left the food. Maybe it was a fairy! Sammy has always said that the fairies will always come if I needed them. The fairies have always been there. They were there on christmas when dad didn't have money for gifts, and there when dad forgot my birthday. They were always there when dad wasn't there. They snuck food and set it beside my bed while I slept when the fridge was empty. Sam says they will always be there for me when no one else is.

As I went to the bathroom on the tree, Sammy stood a bit away, facing away. I told her I could go by myself, but she said she didn't like being in the building alone. She wanted to be with me so I could protect her if somebody attacked us.

She must think I'm so stupid.
