Homerun A Semi Story Chapter 24 part 1
|
Sonny's POVWe walked slowly into the dark building; the old floor creaked with every step. It looked as if it could've been a home once. I noticed a long staircase reaching up to the dark upstairs. My eyes made out a couch sitting to the far right, and a room that looked like a small kitchen. Alex pulled me along towards the room I thought was the kitchen. Bravely, she peeked inside while I tucked my head in her chest. I was scared out of my mind. "Tawni?" she called. I slapped her arm causing her to look questionably at me. "You can't just call her like that. What if someone hears us?" She shrugged and looked around in the kitchen before turning around and headed down the hallway. "Fine, I'll be—What the !" Her sudden outburst frightened me even more making me grip her tighter. I looked around to find what could've made her freak. "What? What happened?" "Why the would someone own a clown costume!" she yelled. My eyes landed on a clown that was hanging in the doorway in front of us. Alex shivered before turning us back towards the staircase. I giggled despite how scared I was. No matter how brave and knightly she wanted to be, she was still like a little kid. "Its not funny," she mumbled. "I hate clowns. They're all creepy and happy and ." I looked up at her through the darkness as we made our way up the noisy stairs. "You're happy aren't you?" I asked. "Yeah, well I have a reason to be," she told me kissing my forehead. The realization that she was implying that I was her reason made me blush. I didn't try to hide it because the darkness did it for me.At the top of the stairs I saw about 4 doors in front of me, and a couple on the walls to the side. Okay, this place is huge. I was about to ask Alex 'what now?' but I heard footsteps. Loud, rapid footsteps. "You hear that?" Alex whispered to me. I replied by nodding into her side. She held me closer, and tighter, stepping a little ahead of me just for protection. We turn right and there are those footsteps again. They were getting louder as if someone, or something, was running to us, but nothing was in sight. "Alex..." I whined gripping a handful of her shirt. "I'm not gonna let you get hurt," she told me. She said it in a way that sounded like she was trying to make herself believe it too. A light flicked in the room to the right so we started to head that way. "Alex someone is—Ahhh!" I screamed when I felt hands grab my shoulders and rip me away from Alex's side. I was being pulled the other way. "Sonny!" Alex yelled as she ran for me, well, for the 'thing' that's got me. "Let her go!" She demanded pulling me from the person and pushing me out of the way. She pulled her hand back before pounding it right into its jaw. The figure, which was dressed in black, grunted and tumbled down the stairs in a loud 'thud'. Leaving me standing there watching with my mouth wide open.On to part 2 you!
