The cold water hitting my body was a major relief from the hot, humid and sticky day outside. I was just stepping into the shower, and started to wash my hair when some soap got into my eyes, "Crap! F%$#!" I was deathly afraid of closing my eyes right now. For fear some ax murder would come into the bathroom when I shut my eyes. I quickly rinsed my eyes out and the burning went away. I turned around just to check that no one was there. I know it's a little pathetic for a fourteen year old to be afraid, but hey, I read horror books and watch scary movies what can I say? Thankfully no one was standing their holding a gun menacingly threatening to shoot me, which was a major ease to know I was going to be alive for the next feew minutes. I hurriedly finish my shower and walk down stairs. A crash sounded from outside, normally I would be freaked out of my mind and I do admit I jumped a bit, but it was the Fourth of July and the neighbors go crazy with fireworks. I come around the computer and find Lex sitting at the computer on Facebook with her boyfriend. "How's Matt?" She gives an irritated look and sighs,
"He's fine, how's Jake?"
"Touche!" I reply.
"You're starting to sound a lot more like Lizzy lately" She smiles, "but so how is he?"
"Oh you know! Awesome, he's so nice, and very funny!"
"Good, im happy for you"
"Thanks, you too."
We continue to chat about random gossip, and listen to our fav music when a loud, heart stopping thud comes from upstairs. We both give each other a "I'm scared to death, what the hell are we gonna do" look. I take a deep breath, "I'm gonna go check it out."
"What! No I think we should just call my mom to pick us up!"
"Oh come on the doors have been locked all day! I'm going"
"Fine, I'm going with you." I start up the stairs when Lex cries, "Wait we should get something sharp!" right, that's smart! She grabs a hair brush and I give her a look? That's not all that sharp? What are you gonna do, groom him to death. I roll my eyes and walk into the kitchen and pull out a butchers knife. Im about to leave when I go back and grab another knife,
"Want one?" She nods and I grab another knife for her and we start up the stairs
