Chaptor 10: Too Late (Jacob)

I drove into the driveway and saw the house was pitch black. I whispered under my breath,

"Please be alright Angela." I got out of the car and walked up to the front door. My hand went to the handle but hesitated, thinking of everything that could wrong, thinking of what happened before. She was already gone by the time I arrived after escaping Golden Freddy's clutches, only to find Baby Clown had already took her soul. I sighed and closed my eyes trying not to think of seeing her dead body as I opened the door. It was peaceful but hard to see. I ended up tripping on something making a huge crash and thud onto the ground. Hoping I didn't wake up Angela I kept walking to her room. I looked around making sure no one was watching me though it felt like all eyes were on me. I saw the glow of his eyes behind me. I turned around and saw him for a glimpse before he disappeared. I gulped trying to not make my heart not beat faster then normal, trying to keep a cool-head in case anything, gory happened I wouldn't bleed out to death. I slowly turned the handle to her room door and opened it as it made a small creek. She was sleeping restlessly, tossing and turning in a nightmare I think, I walked up to her and grabbed the sides of her shoulders whispering her name to comfort her and maybe wake her from her nightmare. Just then she gasps as she shot up in the air now sitting up and eyes open. Afraid. She and I were both afraid. I was worried but afraid for her eyes were glowing. I couldn't speak, a ball grew in my throat, a ball of fear. She seemed worried by my expression and hugged me. I just stayed still. Afraid. I mumbled under my breath as I closed my eyes, "I'm too late."
