The plane was going into flight and I could feel my heart beat rapidly inside my ribcage. I gripped the arm rests tightly, like the floor was going to give out and I was going to fall altogether. Zak sat beside me while Nick and Aaron sat behind us.

"Are you okay?" I heard Zak say beside me. How could he feel this relaxed?

"No, not really."

"You feel like you're going to fall right?" I nod. "I felt like that when I first boarded a plane. But I go on them nearly all of the time I'm use to it."

I looked out of the small window and noticed that we were fully in the air now and the plane was going smoothly through the candyfloss clouds. But I still didn't feel at ease.

"What are Nick and Aaron doing?" I would've looked myself but I was too small to look behind me.

Zak looked for me. He smiled and whispered, "I think they're both asleep."

"I don't feel tired." I smiled.

"Neither do."

We didn't say anything for a little bit. It was a nice feeling to know he was just sitting next to me. But looking out made me feel sick and hearing people talk so calmly made me jealous. I wanted to talk more but I felt like anything I would do would cause something bad to happen.

"Listen," Zak said. "To make you feel more at ease, do you want me to tell you about where we're investigating?"

"Yes please."

"Okay so we're going to this house where supposedly a man and his daughter lived in the 1970's. The mom died when the girl, who's called Jane, was five from an illness. Ten years later in 1975 the girl died from the same illness when she was fifteen. Due to the death of his wife and daughter with ten years apart, the man committed suicide in the house."

I immediately felt chills run up my spine. But I listened to what else Zak had to say. The more I knew, the better the communication would be.

"A year after his suicide, a family moved in and they experienced strange going ons such as things mysteriously falling or things going missing. None of this could be explained. In 1983, a family with two young daughters moved in and they experienced stranger things. The eldest daughter was fifteen and she experienced being stroked on the cheek by a cold presence or her hair brushes going missing. This was believed to be the daughter who had died, perhaps thinking it was her hair brush. Anyway that's the outline I have. I'm sure the people there will explain it in more detail."

I nodded and looked back out the window. This was going to be an interesting lockdown.

The plane finally landed and there were dark clouds in the sky, looking as if they were going to rain any moment.

"Come on guys," Zak said. "Let's get the van and drive to the hotel."

After a minute of being in the van it started to pour down with rain. I smiled, reminding me what typical British weather is like.

"Remind you of home, huh?" Nick asked, turning round briefly as he was the one driving.

"Yeah," I laugh.

Just then I caught Zak's eye in the rear view mirror. He looked concerned. I gave him a smile and he smiled back but he still looked worried.

We finally arrived at the hotel and Zak made the bookings while Nick, Aaron and I brought in the luggage. After Zak had booked, we all wondered up the stairs to room five. When we entered, there was a double bed and then another double bed in the room adjoining it.

"I guess this was the only room they had left," Zak said.

"Well I am not sharing with Zak because I know for a fact he snores," Aaron said and walked through to the adjoining room.

"I don't mind who I share with, as long as I can sleep in the next five minutes." Nick said.

We decided that Nick and Aaron would share and me and Zak would share.

"I don't mind sleeping on the floor," I offer.

"No, no, I'll sleep on the floor." Zak said smiling.

I was getting my book out to read before bed when in the corner of my eye I saw Zak taking his top off. He had his back to me so I sneaked a peek at his bare back.

I almost melted inside! His back looked so strong and toned. And the tattoo on his back I could finally see. He was closing the curtains and then turned round. I just about managed to avert my eyes to my book but could feel myself furiously blushing.

"What are you reading?" Zak asked, sitting down next to me on the bed.

"Pride and Prejudice," I reply.

"Ah awesome. A proper British book, eh?" He said in a completely rubbish British accent.

"Dude I heard that accent and it sucked!" I heard Aaron call from the other room.

"Oh yeah, I would like to see you do better!" Zak teased.

Aaron said a normal sentence in an attempt of a British accent which wasn't brilliant but better than Zak's.

"Now whose was better?" Zak asked.

"It has to be Aaron's." I admitted, grinning.

"See! Thank you Maddy."

I looked at Zak. I thought he would be annoyed but he was just smiling at me. My fringe had fallen in front of my eye. He gently tucked it behind my ear.

"I'll leave you to read," He said softly. He walked round to where he had put a make shift mattress down.

"Hey Zak, we're floor buddies!" Nick called through before they went to sleep.

I read for a little while until I realised that both rooms were still. Aaron and Nick's room was in darkness and I could hear soft snoring. Zak however was snoring louder. I crawled along the bed and looked down at Zak. His torso was completely revealed due to the duvet no longer being on him. I just wanted to pick him up and put him in bed with me. I just wanted him to…kiss me again? I felt confused. I'd gotten on really well with him but those feelings I had had when I met him face to face two months ago were drifting back to me.

I went to sleep eventually, with the thoughts of the day to come, home, Nick and Aaron and most importantly…ZAK.
