What Goes Bump In the Night
Hey guys plz review
Disclaimer - Relic Hunter and its characters are not mine, I'm not sure who owns them but it's not me so don't sue! Lol
Dedications - Well I always thought that dedications were sorta cheesy but here I am contradicting myself. I guess I dedicate this story to Aryea, you write the best stories you are my idol when it comes to fanfic.
Authors Notes - Sorry guy's chapter 3 and on will be 500 better I promise chapter one and two are just setting up the story. This will be a SydneyNigel story but things might not go great all the time.
PS: sorry if my spelling and stuff is bad I'm using my new laptop and haven't set up Word yet so I'm using WordPad or note pad :S I don't know it's the crappy one in accessories.
Chapter Three - When you're all alone
Nigel's birthday had gone great! Of course it was all thanks to Karen but she didn't care she would never forget his birthday again and next year it would be way better.
It was 10:39 when she stumbled into her town house. After work she and Nigel had gone out to dinner and a bar alone to celebrate, just as friends though. As usual she was greeted by her cat Maftet who was weaving around her legs happy to see someone was home to feed her. Sydney took off her shoes and stood up a little to quickly, she was not drunk but she was a little tipsy. "Common kitty lets get you some food" she said calling to her cat as she went into the kitchen. She made herself some coffee and sat on her couch watching the end of The Simpson's it was an episode she'd seen many times, the one where homer decides to grow a lobster and name it Pinchy. Even though she drank coffee her eyelids had begun to become very heavy. "Let's go to bed cat' she said to the furry sleeping ball on her lap as she headed upstairs.
She was so tired but she couldn't sleep. Thoughts of the day came back into her mind. She suddenly remembered how sad she was when she saw those girls swarm Nigel she had been so jealous of them. They kissed and hugged him why wasn't she kissing him she wanted to kiss him... wait, what? Nigel was her assistant, and her best friend she couldn't ruin their friendship over a crush. She tried to shake it off but the feeling of being alone had set in. She was there in her bed all alone and the one she truly wanted was a couple of miles away probubly already sleeping. She tried to forget it but she couldn't now and the empty feeling in the pit of her stomach hurt tremendously she closed her eyes as one tear fell out and she tried to go to sleep.
"Oh Syd" he said in a quiet whisper
"You remembered" he whispered quietly in her ear as he embraced her in a hug.
She felt so comfortable in his arms so warm, so safe. She held him tighter she never wanted him to let go.
"Of course I did I would never forget" she whispered back.
She heard it then, the phone bringing her back out of her dream.
"Hello?... Nigel?" she said still half asleep, please let it be Nigel she thought.
"Hello... is anybody there?" she said awake now
Silence
"I can't hear you" she said sitting up in bed
"Hello is something wrong?" she started to get worried know
"Nigel is that you? Are you ok is something wrong" she was fully awake now. Nigel had promised if anything ever was bad he'd call her if he could and she'd do the same.
"I see you" a whispered voice said
Sydney could tell it was a man but she couldn't tell who
"This is a joke right? Very funny "she said "Now if you don't mind I'm going to go back to sleep go prank call someone else" she said
As she hung up the phone.
She wasn't afraid of a prank phone call, she didn't live in a horror movie and besides she was Sydney Fox she could take care of herself.
The phone rang again she looked at the call display this time... it was a private number, damn it it could be anyone she thought.
"Hello" she said
... Silence
"Oh it's you again" she said she knew how to get rid of prank callers she got a lot because she had so many enemies and she was known by all the students.
"You must have something important to tell me if you're calling this late at night" she said putting on her girly charm
...silence
Damn she thought, usually that got them talking.
"If you're so shy why did you call back?" she asked, she would coax an answer out of this creep sooner or later
"Common talk to me I'm really not as scary as I seem" she said innocently
"What's it like being alone... in the dark?" a whisper said
"Ah" she croaked he had caught her off guard
"With no one there to protect you" he whispered
"I can protect me and I'm not alone" she said hoping he couldn't see through her lie
"I know, I'm here" he whispered before he hung up
She leaped out of bed and grabbed her knife when she heard a car drive away outside.
