Under the bed story…
For weeks now I have had strange noises coming from under my bed, although I do not know what it is I don’t want to find out. The thing is, it’s not repeated every night, it’s a couple of times every 2 nights or something like that. My parents say I’m lying but I’m not, I sleep with the door closed so they can’t hear it. It’s like a whispering noise of people. I’m normally quite shy so I don’t like going under there to see if anything is there, that’s why I’ve never done it. We live pretty far away from town so we only have a few people that live near us. Sometimes the whispers sound like they’re saying my name, oh by the way my name is William, anyways back to the story. Sometimes they say my name, sometimes they even call for help, trust me, when they do that I curl up in a ball and close my eyes. I should tell you, the first time I heard it I was VERY scared because ya know it’s scary hearing a noise like that, you have to agree with me right?
I decided to go under that bed and see what was there. I went to a comfort zone at school for my big journey when I got home. For some reason, it was kinda fun just walking around vibing. Then the bell rang to go home. It was coming, the one time to be brave was coming, I was ready. When I got home it was 3:05 pm, so I got an afternoon snack and went to my room to get ready for the time. I was feeling nervous, the thing is, at school I know it’s safe but in my room, it’s scary just being in there to be honest. After about 4 and a half hours it was my bedtime, I walked down the hallway terrified of what I thought was going to be easy, it wasn’t. My dad went closed my bedroom door and walked down the hallway. I was all alone.
I was stuck 10 minutes straight thinking if I should go under. I decided no, I knew I would do the next night. So I got to sleep and then of course 2 hours later the whispers woke me up, this time it was even worse. They were whispering… “were coming for you. Then I heard a faint scream, then again they whispered “that will be you when we’re finished with you” what the flip had I just heard!? In my head I said “alrighty that happened,” If you couldn’t tell, I WAS PETRIFIED. I finally got to sleep, no more dramas. I woke up at 7:45 am and went up the hallway to go watch tv, normal dumb stuff on it so I went to the youtube option. Again normal stuff, I managed to entertain myself for 1 hour and a half.
I got the bus to go to school. This night was the night of my life. I was definitely ready now…
4 hours later I got home. 4 hours to go before it happened, I was still ready. I knew I would do it tonight. 3 hours passed 1hour to go, I told my parents I was going to chill in my room. 30 minutes later the pressure was packing up. This wouldn’t stop me doing achieving this job. I was ready, 5 minutes. I heard my mum coming up the hallway to say goodnight, it was time for me to be brave. When my dad left I was ready.
