Becca's P.O.V



Well I never had expected that to happen. I knew William had something to do with the house but not this much. Maybe he knew all along that Harry was my cousin and that he only became friends with him so he could get into this house. Even though we didn't know this house excised until two months ago, but thats fait really. A huge coincidence.

We stay still listening to the birds sing their last song before they head to their nests, we stay in silence no one moving. I can tell Harry's pretty shocked as his eyes are wide and he's looking at the floor. William sits on the dirty floor against the ivy filled wall opposite me staring at Harry. I sit with the torch in my hand shining it around the room. I shine it behind harry to that big stone box thats he's half leaning on. I get up as I notice something. I struggle to get up but when I do I William's jacket up on my shoulder where it has began to slide off of me as its a little to big. For a 14 year old i'm quite small and very slim.

I walk past Harry how doesn't look at me just stares at the floor. But when I turn round Williams eyes are following me. I shine the torch on top of the stone on the opposite end of Harry who by this time has come back to reality, turned round and has both hands on the large stone.

I put the torch on the stone and get my brown curled hair in one hand and put it on my left shoulder and let it hang down. I pick the torch up and notice somethings engraved on the stone. I turn back at the boys where William has now stood up and just gasped. Theres something he didn't want us to see.

I rub the dust off and see it reads...

'Mary-Alice Thomas'
'1883-1908'
'A loving daughter, wive and mother.'

"Oh wow, she didn't die during childbirth." I whisper.

"Crap!" I hear William say.

I turn to look at him and so does Harry. They're facing each other when I notice something out of the corner of my eye. A glow of light flickering. Harry turns to see what it is and William starts to head face down.

"Harry catch him!" I yell.

Harry turns away from a ghostly figure literally right behind him and see's William falling, instead of trying to catch him stupid Harry takes a step away from him not realising what he's doing yet. Trying to correct his mistake Harry reaches down to try catch him but its to late, William has already fallen on his knees and has hit face first on the hard, dirty concrete floor.

"Crap! Well done Becs!" Harry says, rolls his eyes playfully and kneels down to try awaken William.

William's eyes slowly begin to open and he try's to push himself up from his front. He turns himself over and sits up. Rubbing his already bashed up head.

"Ow, my head." William moans. Harry puts his hand on Williams back to make sure he doesn't fall again.

"Shh, I know, I'm sorry, it was Becca's fault!" Harry says with a huge childish grin his face, his dimples showing.

"Hey! Thats not fair! I told you to catch him but you so busy thinking about the gho- shoot!" I suddenly remember the ghost behind us and shes still there.

"Thanks Harry. And can you guys quiet down, it hurts my head. Are you trying to kill me today. I said I was sorry for leaving you down here!" William says then his eyes widen. "You okay? Its looks like you've seem a ghost." William asks me.

"G-ghost!!" I yell.

I begin to run to the door and Harry helps William up and they join me. We all run up the stairs and through the half broken door. Harry helps William by making William put his arm on Harry's shoulder for support. He really has done damage! Harry lets William go through the door and I catch him. But right before Harry steps out the door slams shut. Harry lets a small manly scream. But before the ghost could get him Harry kicks the door off the hinges and it flys to the floor. Me and William have to duck because it was a very strong kick!

"What?! I had to do it!" Harry shrugs and chuckles.

But we continue running through the small, dark, creepy forest until we found the others.
