(davina mustache you a question in the an at the bottom)
It's the middle of the night and the girl's eyes refuse to droop down. She lacks the ounce of drowsiness it takes to be able to fall into a full slumber. In the opposing bed, lays a colourfully haired boy snoring peacefully. Her slender legs hang down from the bed and gradually make their way to the ground. She tries her best to be quiet with Michael being a semi-light sleeper.
The floor creaks beneath her, causing the girl to be startled and jumps a bit. Michael stirs in his sleep by turning over and Candace becomes still to mimic an inanimate object. She inhales sharply. He returns to snoring and she lets out the breath.
She takes wide steps as she makes her way to the door as swiftly and quietly as possible. When her hand wraps around the cool handle, it relieves her to know that he's still asleep. She opens the door and walks through it.
It is cooler in the hallway. It takes a minute for her to adjust to the new temperature before she could make her way to the attic. The floorboards creak beneath her, causing her to mutter a shh.
Candace can already feel the dust and dirt collect on the bottom of her bare feet. It would've made a bunch of unnecessary noise to grab her slippers. Michael would not encourage her going up to the attic if he knew. She is right to have kept it a secret.
My polish better not have chipped, she checks her lower digits and wiggles them. I'm good.
She wanders the halls until she comes across a wooden square close to the ceiling. She believes to have found the entrance once she notices an opening at the top. DEVON, it reads above the wood. She reaches for the pull down chain and reveals the entranceway. The ladder is taken down and she climbs up its shaky foundation.
More is revealed of the attic as she goes up step by step. When she gets to the top, she sighs in relief. She closes the entrance behind her, bringing the ladder up.
The attic is even more chilled than the hallway, making the girl let out a shudder. The large space was broken down in two smaller ones. She check the lock on the one on the left and peeks through the opening.
Ashton is sprawled across the middle of the space. When Candace listens carefully, she is able to hear his soft snoring. In his sleep, the boy appears peaceful. But who knows, he could be a coldhearted killer with a sweet face.
She walks over to Calum's side and sees him wide awake. His hair is disheveled. The dark locks have been tossed around haphazardly on his head and his tired deep brown eyes stare lifelessly at her.
What if it turned out they didn't kill anyone and two innocent men are being held hostage for no reason? A horrid thought that is a major possibility crosses her mind as she turns away from them.
Footsteps grow closer as a figure makes their way to Candace. She squints her eyes as the flash of a flashlight hits her square in the face. She obscures most of it with her hands.
"What are you doing up?" She asks warily to the visitor with constricted vision. A insidious smile creeps onto their face as a horrific scene plays out between the two. The night ends with a scream.
