Megan walked beside Ponyboy, them holding hands. It was a clear summer night, and everything seemed to be in place. She then heard a crash, sounded like a garbage can, and then the perfectly innocent night seemed to have a sudden mist around it, even though the sky was clear. Megan could hear the fast clicking of boots.
"Maybe we should go," Megan couldn't help looking behind her. She hoped it was Dally or Steve just trying to scare them. Then she remembered the curse...
Megan shook it off. She wasn't superstitious. Probably some creep.
"Yeah lets go inside the store," Ponyboy motioned towards an old thrift shop. Maybe they would be safe there. Maybe. Megan's hands were shaking and she almost felt the breath of a man, or was it? "Megan, you okay?" Ponyboy put his hand on her shoulder and she jumped.
"Yeah, yeah Pony I'm fine," she was just...spooked.
"No you aren't."
"Yeah I am," she lied, but her gut had a nauseating feeling that someone -- or something -- was watching them.
