Jerome's POV

We were all watching a movie in Stacy's room since she rented Frozen. To be honest it wasn't my favorite movie but it was fine. Lachlan kept singing 'Do you Want to build a snowman' all the time which was annoying.
"Hand me the popcorn." I move my hand gesturing for Preston to hand me the bowl as Let it Go played.

"Share." Jean grabs a handful out of the bowl. I stuff a bunch in my mouth before reaching for another. It's empty so I get up.
"I'm going to get some more." I whisper to Jean before closing the door behind me. I go towards the empty cafeteria. My footsteps echoing through the hallways. To be honest it is kind of creepy when your alone in an empty school hearing your own footsteps echo.

My walk turn intros a sprint trying to reach the cafeteria. The hair on the back of my neck stands up, I think someone's following me. I finally reach the cafeteria and grab a popcorn bag out of my pocket. We aren't allowed to use our own food, we have to buy it from the store, but Vikk brought some from his house. It's pops blocking out the echo luckily but I'm still shaky. I swear someone was staring at me. I know it.

The microwave dings and I take out the hot back throwing a piece in my mouth. I walk back playing a song in my head trying to keep out the uneasiness. I feel a cold chill on the back of my neck maybe even more footsteps. The air is cold and it's dark. I'm not scared of the dark but I'm scared of what could be dwelling in it.
"Hey Jerome." A familiar voice echos before pulling me aside into the darkness.

Jean's POV

"That was great!" Izzy says stretching as the credits roll.
"Ya." Rob agrees. "Where's the popcorn?" Everyone looks around but no one finds anything.
"Jerome said he was going to get some." I recall. "He should of been back by now."
"I'll go find him." Mitch volunteers half asleep and a little groggily.
"Go to sleep your drunkie." I joke. "I'll go get him." I head out the door into the empty hallways. I pull my jacket closer around me when a cold chill blows through. I hear noises. Very quiet noises. As I move the noises slightly get louder.

They're people mumbling I can tell. I see the Art classroom door slightly cracked open with a dim light coming out from it. I walk towards it pushing the door. I step forward hearing a crunching sound under my feet. The popcorn.

"Jerome?" I ask into the darkness. I flip on the switch seeing a pinned down Jerome and Amy on top of him making out. "Jerome? What are you doing? Are you-" His eyes widen his mouth drops as he gets up. He tries shaking his head but by then I'm out of there crying. I run towards the dorm. The dorm of the only guy I can think of, Lachlan.
