A loud clap of thunder boomed outside while the girls were in the barn. Then a huge strike of lighting flashed.
"Holy crap we are gonna die!" Hanna yelled. She jumped in between Spencer and Aria on the couch.
"It's just a storm. We will be alright." Aria reassured her.
The lamp in the barn flickered on and off.
"Oh my god the power is going out. What am I going to do without my phone? It's not even charged all the way yet." Hanna exclaimed.
"Would you chill out!" Spencer shouted.
The power went out completely. The only light that they could see was the strike of the lightning outside.
"We should've stayed over in your house, Spencer" Alison said.
"I'm scared of the dark" Emily whispered.
"It doesn't matter if we are in the house or not. The storm will still be here" Spencer said. "Plus I have a some candles and flashlights in here anyway."
Aria got up and started lighting a few candles. "I have an idea. Let's tell ghost stories!" Alison suggested.
"Nuh uh, no way. It's too creepy out here already" Hanna said.
"I'll go first." Spencer said.
Alison got up and blew the candles out and handed a flashlight to Spencer.
"Thanks Alison. She turned the flashlight on and held it to her face. Emily scooted closer to Alison.
"It was a dark and stormy night," Spencer started. Exactly like tonight. Five girls were alone in a cabin in the middle of no where. They heard a knock on the door. One of them opened it and saw that no one was there. It was just the wind they thought. Then they heard something that sounded like nails scratching on the door in one the closets. Someone said please let me out. The girls ran to open the door and to their surprise no one was in there. It was a walk in closet so they went in to investigate. Another one of the girls found a journal of some sort in the closet and the last page had said 'someone knocked on the cabin door and my wife opened the door letting them in. They locked my wife in the closet that night and she scratched on the door screaming for help, but it was locked shut so she ended up dying.' All of a sudden the closet door slammed shut locking the girls in."
Spencer turned the flashlight out. Emily grabbed Alison's hand since she hates the dark. They were so close to each other they could feel one another's body heat. Alison started rubbing Emily's arm up and down.
A few seconds later Aria jumped at Hanna yelling "boo!" super loud causing Alison to stop rubbing Emily's arm.
Hanna screamed "Damnit Aria! What is wrong with you?"
Everyone laughed loudly.
"I'm gonna light the candles again. No more scarring me!" Hanna exclaimed. She lit the candles.
The girls noticed Alison and Emily were really close to each other. Aria and Hanna thought nothing of it though, thinking Emily was just scared since it was dark. But really Emily scooted closer just to touch Alison.
"Alright I'm going to try to sleep." Aria announced.
Spencer and Aria folded the couch out into a bed, while Hanna sat in the chair and reclined it to kick her leg out. Alison and Emily had a couch that pulled into a bed as well.
Everyone fell asleep, or so Emily thought. Alison was turned away from her while she laid on her back.
"Ali are you awake?" Alison exhaled slowly, becoming nervous. She turned around to Emily.
"Can I try something?" Emily asked while looking at Alison's lips and back to her eyes.
Alison notice after looking into eyes that Emily kept looking down at her lips.
"Sure." Alison answered.
Emily slowly brought her hand up to cup Alison's face. Alison's breath hitched from the touch of Emily's hand on her. Alison leaned in and their lips brushed against each other softly.
Suddenly they heard Hanna snore loudly. It made them jump and pull away from one another.
They each giggled a little.
"Well I guess we should sleep" Emily said.
Alison put her arm around Emily's waist lightly.
"Sleep well Em."
"You too Ali" Emily smiled, melting while Alison snuggled into her.
Emily was ecstatic that they kissed, even if it was so short.
