Thump

I tell myself it's nothing.

Thump

It's only in my head.

Thump

I hear the nails scratching my door.  It's coming closer, I know it is.  Each step towards my bed a warning. 

Don't

Open

Your 

Eyes.

No matter what. If you do, it gets your soul. And that'll be the end. 


It leans down, and whispers my name. It tells me it's time. 

My eyes fly open. 

All I see is the satisfied smile. 

Oh no.
