1 A Very Sleepless Night

I stare at the ceiling with such an intense look, knowing that tonight I won't be able to sleep. The rain pouring outside the bedroom window, as heavy winds push the trees back and forth outside. I tried to get some sleep earlier that day, but to no avail. So many hours had passed that I didn't even know what time it was; didn't remember what day it was. As the night passed on I couldn't help but look at my room, the bed that I was laying on was fairly large, enough for two people at least. My lampshade which I had bought with someone I loved dearly, pills that they would usually take before going to bed, and my wedding ring box that was sitting on the night desk; empty with nothing in it. I couldn't help but cry as I remembered them, as I remembered them making me happy.

So as the night continued on the storm got heavier, and heavier. My eyes run red from crying had run dry of any tears, all them soaked into my pillow. I could no longer stay in my bed anymore as it was too wet from my tears. I got up, but even though I got up I didn't know what to do after that; I stood at the edge of my bed hoping that something would happen.

'KA-BANG'

"AIIEEEEE" I screamed from fright, I was startled from the sound of thunder that my entire body jolted from the loud sound. My body now entirely awake because of the thunder became more alert of my surroundings, I looked around my room again with a 'huff', and a 'sigh'. I looked around the room: I was terrified by my surroundings which were covered in blood; my body went pale looking at the blood soaked room. "How could this happen!" I thought, "I was sitting here, n-nothing should have happened!"

I immediately ran for the phone at my front which was all they at the end of the hallway, sliding across the hallway. But I stopped; I heard someone talking on the phone, I ran into the nearest opened room hoping not to have been seen. I quickly quieted my breathing as not to make much noise, I tried to listen to what he was saying on the phone. I looked at him with the crack of the wide open door, hiding behind to make sure I wasn't seen.

"Sir the job is done, this was fairly easy." The man said with grainy voice "Also were able to send the money you got from the client?"

The man on the other side of the phone bickered to the man

"I just wanted to make sure. Caused I don't this without the money. This is one of the worst jobs I ever had to do."

As he was talking to the man on the phone I thought to myself "Was he the one who put the blood around my room, w-was he trying to frame me, or something." I looked back at the man, but when I turned back he was staring right at me. But something was off he was extremely pale looking at me, but I was the same he was terrifying to look at. He had huge scars across his face, a hood over his head, and blood, so much blood over his body.

I was terrified of him, I mean who wouldn't be. That amount of blood just covering someone's body, and being so clammed about it. But he was terrified, I looked behind to see what this man could have been terrified of; there was nothing. I know that because this room was empty when I came into it. I immediately looked back at the man, he was now looking even more pale than before.

Then I took up the courage to say something to him, and put all my strength in it to try to scare him off. "W-WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MY HOUSE!!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGH!" He screeched with so much freight that I almost fell over

"H-H-H-HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE!!!" He then ran out my front down in such a hurry that he forgot to hang up.

I heard from the phone an older man's voice saying "Hey what do you mean 'How are you still alive?', you better not have fucked up the job. If so you're not getting paid for this one." He then hanged up

I looked at the front door staring blankly "What did he mean by 'How are you still alive?" I ran into my bathroom before looking at myself in the mirror. Now being paler than before, but that was normal for finding some in your house covered with blood. But still being suspicious of what he said I slowly walked back towards my room, blood covering the walls as I walked back.

Opening the door was no small feat for me it took all my willpower to open all at once. I towards my room it still being covered in blood, but there was something else on the bed. M-my body ripped to shreds was on the bed!! I couldn't believe it my body was just lying there in the blood soaked bed. I fell down on the floor before remembering with a smile; "Ah, this, this is what I wanted." Then looked at my bed once more at my bed seeing also my husband the one I loved corpse also next to mine. I laid next to the corpse on the bed before saying, "Finally we are together again."

The End
