Imagine a scary movie. There's always the scene where the character locks all the doors, closes the windows, and is scared shitless. And I, Ashley Davies, am the scared shitless character right now. The second Rico hung up; I sped home, and followed his orders. Lock up the house, and not answer the door for anyone.
Knock Knock
I jumped from the couch and quietly walked towards the door with Goosebumps. The person on the other side of the door knocked again, but louder. "Ashley!" I heard Spencer shout. I let out a sigh of relief, and opened the door for her.
"Ashley are you okay?" Spencer asked once I shut the door looking at me concerned.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I uhmm…just had a headache and needed to get home," I lied. I can't tell her, her cousin is a serial killer. I just can't.
"Oh okay," Spencer said obviously not satisfied with my answer. "I thought I did something wrong because you left in such a hurry," she said looking down. I stepped towards her, and wrapped my arms around her.
"I'm sorry you had to think that Spence. Please forgive me for making you thin—" was all I was able to get out before more knocking noises interrupted me.
"Are you expecting anyone?" she asked. I shook my head. I untangled my arms from her, and slowly opened the door. Before I say anything else, I just want to remind you readers…if someone tells you not to open the door for anyone, don't open the door. I made the stupid mistake of forgetting what Rico told me, and opened the door.
"Hey Ashley, is Spencer here?" a low voice asked. I immediately closed the door, and had my back pressed against the door.
"Ashley are you okay? Who is it?" Spencer asked looking at me worried. She walked towards the door and opened the door a crack.
"Jasper, what are you doing here?" she asked confused, and swung the door open for him.
"I just wanted to check up on you. I was worried about you," he said as he stepped in my house. MY house.
"I just came to check up on Ashley. She wasn't feeling well," she told him. "Alright, I'm gonna get going then. I'll see you back at home Spence," he said looking at her, then at me.
"Bye Jasper," she said right before he went out the door. She shut the door behind him, and looked towards me. "Are you sure you're okay Ash?" she asked. I paused for a moment before answering.
"Spence, there's something you should probably know about me," I said. I walked towards her, and laced my hand with hers.
