Chapter Two, Feeling Sparks

(Calum's POV)

I ran up to the dreadfully dark house that no one had lived in for as long as I lived on this street. Ashton was supposed to be right behind me, but he fell back as I rushed in front of him, his curly brown hair bobbing with every step he took.

"Calum! Calum wait up!" Ashton yelled, trying desperately to catch up with me but I was already so far away from him that even when he yelled his voice was faint and quiet. I didn't bother waiting for him but instead looked into the windows of the house and laughed. The possession house, anyone that stepped foot inside would be possessed by ghosts or demons. Well, at least that's what everyone says. I turned around to talk to Ashton, only to find out he had stopped running to take a break, he was breathing so loud I could hear it from across the street where I was standing. I looked up at one of the windows in the house, noticing someone looking out the top right window. He had dark hair, the middle of his hair looked like it was a vibrant purple, he looked about the same age as me, Ashton and Luke. The boy in the window turned, and then I felt a push. I went flying to the other side of the houses lawn. I thought for a moment that maybe Ashton had caught up to me and shoved me, but then I looked over, and Ashton was still a ways away from me.

"Calum? Calum what happened?!" Ashton yelled as he finally got up to me and helped me up of the ground. I rubbed my thigh where I had fallen and looked at the house in a confused way.

"I don't know what happened, I just kinda-"

"Its the house isn't it?" Ashton interrupted me, I looked back at the house and then back at Ashton.

"I don't know at all... All I know is that I would like to leave" I told Ashton as we both walked far away from that house. that possessed house. The fall air blew into my face as me and Ashton walked further down Hevin Street, looking for Waver rd. where Lukes house was located. On our way down the smooth sidewalk, Ashtons voice boomed in my ears, asking me all types of questions about me falling a while ago.

"Did you feel something push you?" Ashton asked, I shook my head and threw me arms up in the air.

"Gee, I don't know Ash, if anything I just lost my balance" I spoke, Ashton just looked at me. The truth is that something did push me, but, I didn't want to hear Ashtons many theories so I just tried to let it be and move on. I didn't want to think about it either, it was all a bit strange and unsettling. Me and Ashton walked further down the street, until we got to house number 78, which was Lukes house. His house was like every other house on this block. A single house, blue roof and white siding. The steps that led up to the front porch were also white. Luke had one chair sitting on his front porch with a blue and white stripped patio cushion on it.

"Lukey! Oh Lukey! Come on open the door!" Ashton banged on the door with his fist, I laughed. Luke didn't exactly like when we called him 'Lukey' but we weren't going to stop anytime soon. Thats just what best friends do.

"Alright! Alright! I'm coming" I heard Lukes faint accented voice coming though the front door. It took a while, but, Luke answered the door and looked at Ashton, and then at me, and then back at Ashton. Luke stayed looking at Ashton as he leaned on the door. The two of them had feelings for each other and I have been trying to set them up for years.

"Yes?" Luke asked, Ashton raised his hand and jumped for some odd reason as if he really wanted to answer a question in school or something along those lines.

"Calum had a run in with the new neighbors" Ashton said, I flinched. I was hoping he would have forgotten that by now, but, I guess not.

"New neighbors?" Luke asked, Ashton nodded and pointed down the street to the possessed house.
