Children have You ever met the Bogeyman before?
No, of course You haven't for You're much too good, I'm sure;
Don't You be afraid of him if he should visit You,
He's a great big coward, so I'll tell You what to do.
Hush, hush, hush, here comes the Bogeyman,
Don't let him come too close to You, he'll catch you if he can.
Just pretend that you're a crocodile
And you will find that Bogeyman will run away a mile.
Say Shoo shoo and stick him with a pin.
Bogeyman will very nearly jump out of his skin.
Say buzz buzz just like the wasps that sting.
Bogeyman will think you are an elephant with wings.
Sin slowly padded across the cold cement floor in bare feet, cruising silently. Ink escaped her room once more.
Hush, hush, hush, here comes the Bogeyman!
Tell him you've got soldiers in your bed
For he will never guess that they are only made of lead.
Say Hush hush, he'll think that you're asleep!
If you make a lovely snore away he'll softly creep!
Sing this tune you children one and all
Bogeyman will run away, he'll think it's Henry Hall!
When the shadows of the evening creep across the sky;
And your Mummy comes upstairs to sing a lullaby.
Tell her that the bogeyman no longer frightens you!
Uncle Henry's very kindly told you what to do!
Giggles bounced off the walls in between lyrics as the blonde hair woman inched closer to the other girl. The younger girl loved this song.
Hush, hush, hush, here comes the Bogeyman!
Don't let him come too close to you, He'll catch you if he can.
Just pretend your teddy bear's a dog!
Then shout out, 'Fetch him, Teddy!' and he'll hop off like a frog.
Say Meoow, pretend that you're a cat
He'll think you may scratch him that make him fall down flat;
Just pretend he isn't really there
You will find that Bogey man will vanish in thin air!
Here's one way to catch him without fail!
Just keep a little salt with you
and put it on his tail!
The record player slowly screeched at the end of the song before silence over came the darkened room.
A light pink tounge slipped out to moisturize cracked thin lips. "Ink you down here lovely?"
A child like voice respond in a whisper as the older woman stopped. "Do you know how a Raven is like a writing desk?"
The woman rolled her eyes, the dark hair girl was watching Alice In Wonderland again. In a playful voice the older teen yelled "Well...that's simple silly girl. Their both as black as ink!"
The giggled that filled the room warmed Sin's unbeating heart. "Exactly! They both need me!"
"Wher-"
Jet black waves suffocated Sin as a warm solid body pinned hers to the uneven ground. The taller girl scrunched her nose in hopes not to sneeze as a few stray locksof hair ticked hernose.
After a few moments the dark hair girl slowly sat up straddling the other girls hips. Pale knees rested on each side of the taller girl. Small hands pressed against the blondes chest.
"Miss me?"
The older teen chucked as she study her friend. "Always lovely, you know it's to late to be playing right now..right?"
Ink groan as pitch black eyes found Sin's. "But Mr. Sandman said I could play! He's warming up my tea!" Sin hated it when he played with Ink, the boy always got the girl in trouble.
Inhaling slowly white eyes meet black. "Didn't Mr. Sandman tell you? The microwave is broken? That lazy boy must of fell asleep against the table!"
The younger teen gasped "WHAT! Oh..that's no good. Nope...not at all. He was..he was..going to make me play all by myself?"
Sin reached up slowly, a soft thumb brushed over pale white skin wiping away black liquid where tears should be.
"Shh..it's okay Inky. Do you wanna have a slumber party in my playroom? You can sleep in my bigfluffy bed!"
The only answer the tallergirl got was cold slim fingers pulling her up and yanking the blonde through the metal stain door.
