This was written by one of my best friends, Michelle. She wrote this whilst we were on the bus, on our way to PortAventura in Barcelona - on a school trip. I edited it a little and added to it to make it longer, but it's still her idea and her story. I hope you enjoy this slightly creepy story!
*this actually happened, so we called it the leaky bus!
A few months ago, some of my school and I were on a week-long trip in Spain. We were going to visit a Theme Park (PortAventura) for the duration of the day. Let me tell you the story of what happened on the coach trip, from our hotel to the Theme Park.
I asked one of my friends, the one sitting next to me at the moment, if I could lay my head on her shoulder once I sleep. Being the kind person she is, she said yes. I wish she hadn't. I wish I'd never asked.
I woke up because my head was hurting, a lot. Maybe I'd got a migraine while I slept?
Opening my eyes, I scanned upstairs, but nobody was there. I sat up rather quickly, because leaning on nothing can hurt your neck after a while. I unclipped my seatbelt and went to look around, to see if anyone was actually on the coach except me. Downstairs : nope. The bathroom : not in use. But the coach was still driving.
Finally, I'd reached the drivers cabin. I peeked my head through the curtains that separated this part from the downstairs seats, and nobody was driving. Somehow, the peddle was pressed down and the steering wheel was turning on it's own. '!!'
Clipped to the inside of the windshield was a picture of me, asleep. I pulled it off, and there was a note on the back. It read, 'Having a nice coach trip?'
Chilled to my bone (and being very easily freaked out) I screamed as I felt a hand rest itself on my shoulder. It was very bony, but had a strong grip, enough to make me whimper in pain. I shut my eyes tightly, and the feeling of the hand began to fade away. It was as if the aura had completely changed : threatening to calm and safe.
Hesitantly opening my eyes, I was sat in my seat, everyone still in their seats. The teachers trying to catch the dripping water from the air conditioning*. My friend next to me, still reading her book.
'What a dream!'
Was it a dream? Or had that occurance really happened?
