Did You Hear That?

‘Taylor! Did you just hear that?’

’No! what are you on about Jack?

‘Oh ok, it was probably just a bat.’

‘Just incase, we should maybe go back.’

‘Are you kidding me on Taylor? You can’t hear that? I can sense fear.’

‘Jack, you are scaring me now. Please stop.’

‘It is not even funny. I can feel it. I am literally near tears.’

‘It will be ok we will walk fast. Would you feel better with a lolly pop?’

‘Taylor stop trying to be funny and hurry up!’

‘I am just trying to make you feel better. You are obviouslyly scared.’

‘Taylor. WHAT IS THAT NOISE. WHY IS THERE SCREAMING!’

‘Stop being so stupid Jack! There is no screaming!’

‘We need to run!’

...

‘Jack! I am so tired! We need to stop! This hill is killing me! I cannot run as fast as you.’

‘Taylor, be quiet and follow me.’

‘Taylor? Taylor? Where are you?This cannot be happening! Not again!’

*Flips out phone and dials number*

’Taylor! Where did you go! We need to go right now!

‘Umm hello there, this is Steven, not Taylor. I think you may have the wrong number.’

‘Taylor! Stop being funny! This is your number! Seriously we need to go!’

*Phone hangs up*

‘No, no no. I need to get home.’

‘Ouch!! HELP! SOMEONE HELP ME I AM HURT!’

I see trees, I see grass, I see blood dripping from my shoulder, I see the sky, I see a blurry, grey recognisable face.

Running at an incredible pace. I see Taylor and I think I see myself.
