The Midnight Game

Prologue

Today will be a great day. I remember thinking. It was Thursday the 11th of October the year 2017. I got up, washed, and dressed. That day I decided to wear all white. A white shirt white jeans and my all white tims. I walked down the steps almost falling on towards the middle of the flight of stairs. I just cleaned these! I thought to myself. I quickly went and cleaned them off.  Then I went and put on my hoodie and grabbed my iPhone X off of its charger and headed out. 

"Hey, B-Rad." I heard behind me. It was my friend Jacob my best friend. He ran up beside me. 

"What's up Jay?" I asked shaking his hand. 

"Can we stop by Sky's house to walk with her?" he asked me.

"Sure walk ahead of me cuz I am going to stop by Lyla's house," I replied.

"Awww. Y'all goals" He joked "When are you going to ask her out?" He questioned

"I plan on doing that today" I replied

"You better." He quipped. I walked down to Lyla's house. I texted her what are u doing. It was almost 6:50. She texted back almost immediately. I will be out in a minute. 😉😉  Just like that, she came out in a white shirt and a blue skirt with a white tims. 

"Why did you copy me?" I inquired jokingly

"I had this out last night," she replied

"Sure," I said, "We are going to meet up with Jay and Sky." Like that we were on our way.

"Hey, I have a question," We said simultaneously

"Go ahead." We said again in unison.

"Lady's first," I said politely

"Do you like, like me?" She questioned.

"That depends on why you are asking," I replied

"Cuz I have suspicions that you do," She said

"Do YOU like, like me?" I asked

"Yes, now you answer me," she demanded

"Yes, Do you want to be my girlfriend," I asked

"Finally you ask, I mean yes," she replied and with that, she grabbed my hand and we strolled down the street. When we got to where Jay and Sky were standing Jay looked at me and immediately texted me Déjame adivinar, ¿le preguntaste , ¿le por fin?   I texted back  Sí, a ella le gustaba. ¡ sólo estaba esperando que le preguntara! He looked up and smiled

"I told you so." He said aloud Sky and Lyla both looked at him with puzzled looks but didn't say anything.

When we got to school we all went to our classes. We were in the same classes so we were best friends. Then in 6th period right before we were about to go home one of Jay's Mexican friends something called the midnight game. Jay told us a little bit about and suggested that we play it.

"Naw I ain't playin' none of that creepy demon game." Sky said

"Well, I am in. What about you Lyla?" I said

"Hey if you do it then so will I" She replied

"I will explain it in detail tomorrow." Then he kissed Sky goodbye and walked home.

"Are you walking with me?" Sky asked Lyla

"No, I am going to walk with Bryan," Lyla responded.  With that, we were on our way home

"So what do you think bout the midnight game?" I asked Lyla

"I don't know. We don't have enough information on it." She replied

"Well, I will tell you what I found tomorrow," I said and was about to walk off when she said

"Where's my kiss." So I ran over pecked her on her cheek and went home. That night I had a weird dream." It showed Jacob, Lyla and I in Jay's house cutting our wrist and knocking on a door. There were three candles and three lighters and the house was dark. There was also three big bags of salt and three schoolbags. then the dream ended and I woke up. The next morning I wore all black. It was Friday the 12th of October 2017. That day I wore all black. When I went to school I got the rest of the information about the game from Jacob.

"So here is the list of rules,"  He said and gave us each a piece of paper. Sky was at home sick.

"We can do it tonight at my place be there at about 11:00 pm,"  Jay said. The rest of the day was a big blur. When the day finally ended I went home and took a nap. We were going to be up all night I got some rest. Right before I did I called Lyla and told her to get some rest and said that she was probably going to need it. I then called Jay and told him the same thing. He said that he was at the store and he did a video call and he showed me three big behind bags of salt, three bookbags. He also grabbed three lighters and three candles. It was what was in my dream I was creeped out. I finally fell asleep. I woke up it was 10 pm on the dot. So I called Lyla and she had just woke up to. We met up and went to Jacob's house. I called Sky before I went in and sent her a picture of the rules so she could be aware and know what happened in case any of us didn't make it. When we went to his house it was 11:30. He was up waiting for us in his room. His parents were away in Mexico visiting his grandparents. Finally 11:58 came and the invitation started. I did my invite in unison with Lyla except she didn't stop bleeding. So I helped her stop by giving her a Big kiss and she blushed so hard that you could see it through her caramel colored skin the cut stopped bleeding. Then the clock dinged 6 times and we gave our final knock and blew our candles out and opened the doors. I grabbed my rules and Lyla when Jacob left and we lit our candles and began the game.
