I set off back home. It was already dark but I wasn't very scared.
All I could think of was that boy. Something about him was...different.
I didn't exactly no what to think of him. I hadn't seen any of his facial features but what I had seen was his paper white skin, black singed hair, blood splattered hoodie and dress pants.
It almost felt like I've seen him or heard about him.
I carefully continued to walk home through the dark woods.
I quietly slid inside the house. I was greeted by my mom and sister.
"Where were you?" she questioned.
"I told you to be home before dark, Raven. You could get seriously hurt!"
"Mom, I'm fine." I replied walking away before listening to more of her ranting.
I ran up the stairs and into my bedroom. I quickly locked the door and went out onto the balcony.
You could only get onto the balcony from my room so it was basically mine.
I stared off into the beautiful night. The sky was clear with millions of shinning stars.
It wasn't too hot nor cold. It was perfect.
I had a hammock up here just incase I ever wanted to sleep out here and tonight, I wanted to sleep outside so I did.

*NEXT MORNING*
I got up bright and early. The sun was only just rising but I was determined to go find that boy.
I quickly slid out of bed and got ready to go. I decided to just leave a note saying I was leaving.
I pulled on some converse and ran to the woods. I decided to walk through them just incase he really was around.
I walked back to the exact tree from yesterday. I pulled myself up onto the tree and sat down.
I just sketched for awhile until I heard some rustling in the leaves.
There he was. I saw his face. He has bright blue eyes but no eyelids and he had a smile carved into his mouth. It was bleeding.
I was a bit scared but I still had to go see him.
I looked down and as soon as I looked up he was gone but I felt like someone was behind me.
All I heard was " GO. TO. SLEEP. " before I blacked out.
