Stay Away

She honestly didn't know what came in to her. Sneaking in to his house when he specifically told her not to. Against her better judgement even. But for curiosity's sake she had and would know what made him so distant when mentioning his parents. She should have respected his secrecy and not do anything stupid. Like breaking into his house.

She sighed. Well, can't turn back now. Actually she could seeing as she was just standing at the opposite side of the house. Not the front door or anything, so she could've easily walked away. But dammit she was going to find out more about him! Wether he liked it or not. Green eyes now set determined, she took a good look at the house.

What's the big deal anyway? It looks like a perfectly normal family house. It was two stories high and obviously big, had a front yard and probably a garden too. A few cracks and ruptures here and there with faded paint on the outer walls, a proof of it being old.The windows were a misty white making it hard to look inside. But all in all it was an okay for her. Kind of unhomely but still okay.

It wasn't untill she felt a pair of eyes staring, or more like piercing a hole threw her head, that she looked up to one of the higher placed windows, No doubt the attic, and into a familair set of eyes. Emerald met azure.

After a few seconds passed she broke her stare. She faltered a bit and looked at the ground like it was the most interesting thing in the world. Those eyes were so cold. Deathly even. Like she was staring right into the eyes of The Reaper himself.

No. Something was definitely wrong. Another emotion. Was it sadness?

Resolve returned she steeled herself and crossed the street.

Looking back at that moment Lillian Anderson would have laughed at her own stupidity.
