Halloween with Herron 🍁

Chapter 4

The door bell rang just as I finished up doing my make up."I'M COMING" I yelled. I made my way downstairs and opened the door to a cute, smiling boy named Zach.

*Zach's POV*

I could hear my heart pounding in my chest as I approached Abby's door. What do I say? Hi? Hello? Hey what's up Abigail?

Zach stop it. Your totally overreacting. Just press the doorbell and smile.

But what if her mom awnsers? Or her dad? Deep breathes now Zdong.

*Ding Dong*

"I'M COMING!" I heard someone yell. The door opened and Abby came out. She looked cute and comfortable. The thought that she could be comfortable around me , made me happy.
"H-Hey Abby." I stumbled over my words.
She smiled ,"Hey Zach."
That smile..

*Abigail's POV*

Me and Zach hugged and made our way to the his car. He held the door open for me and quickly got in the other side. I thanked him and then we were off to the Halloween Park.

On the way there Zach asked a few questions about my past. And I asked about his. ( Even though I secretly knew alot about him.)
"So why did you move from Florida to Texas?" His eyes still focused on the road.
My dad got a big job opportunity here.
"You don't see very happy about it?"
I am , really.. it's just , it feels like he's always working, always on the phone. I understand it's to put food on the table and a roof over my head but it feels like everyday he becomes more of a stranger to me than a father.
"I'm so sorry to hear that. I-I don"t know what to say."
Don't be it's not your fault.
Zach told me about his past how he started singing from a young age , who he looked up to. He told me about the band , his friends and family. This was nice , just to friends getting to know each other. I didn't know I was so nervous before? He really is just a normal guy.

*Skip rest of car ride*

After a while we finally arrived at the Halloween Park.
This place looks amazingg! My jaw dropped.
"Wait until you get on the rides." He replied with a smile.
My eyes fell on a old house with holes in the roof and broken windows.
Can we go into the haunted house first? I asked ,sounding alot like a little girl wanting sweets.
"I don't know, I don't do very well with jumpscares."He said while looking up and down at the spooky, old building.
"Come on scaredy cat we'll be fine!" I laughed and grabbed his hand and headed towards the house.

There were alot of people around here. Kids running around with cotton candy and hot dogs. People screaming at the top of their lungs on the rides. Luckily for us, there weren't too many people in line for the haunted house.

Soon enough we entered the old house.
We were greeted with a very dark hall with a flickering light at the very end, somehow I had ended up walking first. The old wooden planks creaked under our feet.

Suddenly we heard someone scream right behind us ,we sprinted until we finally entered the next room.

The next room was the kitchen. There was blood everywhere, a old women covered in blood sat at the table chopping what looked like organs.

"Noo , no , no ,no , no , no , no ,Oooohhh NoooooOoooo." I laughed at Zach's response,I could tell he didn't like this one bit.
The women stood up and slowly walked towards us with the knife in her hands. That's when we bolted to next few rooms.

*Skip to the very last room*

The last room didn't look as scary, compared to all the other rooms. This room was painted a light shade of pink with some sort of music box's , music softly playing in the background.

The bed in the corner of the room was packed with old stuffed animals, but all of their eyes had been ripped out and crossed out with an "X". In the middle of the room was a little table set with teapots and tea cups.A little girl sat at the table, facing the other way. She started humming a song, while stirring her imaginary tea.

This was going to end bad, very bad , I told myself. I could feel something wrap around my hand.

I wanted to scream, thinking it was some kind of ghost trying to take my soul, but in relief I saw it was only Zach's hand holding onto mine.

The little girl stopped humming. The pink room now seemed to fade to a grey.
The little girl turned her head ever so slightly, her pitch black eyes looking into mine.

She screamed a high pitched scream and I ran towards the exit. Finally it was over. Zach stood beside me. I realised we were still holding hands."Maybe we should go on the Ferris wheel next?" He laughed , still out of breath.
I laughed and nodded my head in agreement.
