"It's 3:00am Kay, I'm sorry but I'm not coming over. We have school tomorrow and I can't, and you should go to bed anyway.." Tiredly remarks grace.
"but if I go back to sleep than I will just have more drea-" I try and convince her when she cuts me off;
"Goodnight" the line goes dead.
As I lay in my bed, trying my hardest to not fear rest, a light turns on in the apartment hallway.
What? Who is wondering the halls at 3:00am ?
I climb out of bed and get a knife from my kitchen.
I know I'm being over dramatic, but I'm all worked up over the new dreams I've been having.
Even more when the heavy boots that turned on the lights stop in front of my door.. And push a peace of paper under my door than continue the way they came and the light goes off.
...
*knock knock knock*
"GAITH OPEN PLEASE OPEN UP" I'm still crying after the encounter with the letter that still is still under my door. I climbed out the window and ran to gaiths apartment complex 2 blocks away.
He opens the door and I launch into his arms.
"What the heck? It's 4-"
The lights go out.interupting him.
"no, no , no!" the last no came out as a strangled cry.
"It's just the storm, it's okay, come in before you wake someone up"
we walk into his messy apartment that he shares with his dad, who decided to go on a trip for work.
"what happened?" he asks pouring old coffee into his mug.
The lights flicker.
"shh" I say.
"wha-"
"SHH"
The boots... They are back.
Walking down the hall,is he here for me or is this just for every apartment?
The letter is slid under the door.
I look at gaith and he's staring at the door with a pale face.
when the boots leave and the lights in the hallway turn back on, for some reason his apartment always has them on. i say;
"That. That's what. That's why I'm here. It happened to me, and I climbed out my window without touching the letter and came here.. Same boots."
.. He's still silent, switching his eyes on me and the ever lasting letter on the ground.
".. Is this happening everywhere??... or are they only doing this to you?"
He sounds scared..
"let's find out"
"no, don't touch it we need to call the cops"
But before he can fully protest, I'm already reading the messy hand writing.
"Read it out loud"
So I do:
it says "well hello, 'Kay'.
don't you want your precious necklace? Dear, your dreams arnt just dreams. Soon they will be reality. You know exactly where your necklace is."
without a bloody word I run out of the apartment and get in gaiths car, I start the engine with the keys he left in and drive back to my apartment.
I'm not afraid of those boots anymore. because I know exactly who they are.
*hi guys, so I know this is so short but I updated 2 times today, so please don't be mad. Who do you think those boots are?*.
