Author’s POV:
Ethan was sleeping soundly in the bed when Ella left the room. As soon as she left, a black shadow started getting visible in the mirror at the dresser staring at the silhouette of a man lying half-naked on the bed.Soon, the bed started shaking disturbing Ethan’s sleep lightly but he still continued to sleep. After some time the movement started getting fast as Ethan felt himself moving while in the consciousness of his sleep.After a while, suddenly someone pulled the sheet of the bed roughly from him, and then the bed started shaking violently. It’s like someone very powerful is venting the anger on Ethan.Because of the violent shake, Ethan immediately opened his eyes and sat in panic just to find himself alone in the room. He looked around in panic and caught a glimpse of black shadow and started shouting in fear.“Ahh…. Ahhh..” But the thing he didn’t know was his shouts were silent and nobody could hear him at all. He tried to run to the door but no matter what, his body didn’t move an inch no matter how much he struggle.Suddenly, the bed stopped shaking and that shadow started coming out from the mirror. Ethan’s eyes widened in horror and just then the room door opened and Ella entered with a tray of food in her hand.She smiled when she saw Ethan awake, Ethan sat completely frozen and tried to recall what happened just now. He turned to look at the mirror there was nothing there, he then tried to move and unexpectedly he moved a bit. “Ella..” He called her hoarsely while Ella was busy keeping the breakfast on the table.She turned to him with a cup of coffee. “Here.” She stretched her hand and handed him the cup.Ethan took it absentmindedly as he rubbed his sleepy eyes. Ella could sense his body getting tense as she asked in worry. “What’s wrong?”Ethan sighed heavily as he told her the unusual thing happened to him just now. “Actually…. Just now the bed was shaking very heavily and that mirror.” He pointed at the mirror as Ella turned to see her reflection in it. “I saw someone there, like a shadow..”Ella frowned and then she chuckled not taking his words seriously. “Ethan, I must have made you more tired that is why you are daydreaming.”Ethan didn’t find it funny, he was hell scare at this moment. But he knows it’s of no use to unnecessarily stretch this topic and making Ella worried more. So he just simply pursed his lips and started drinking his coffee while his gaze kept going at the mirror to catch a glimpse of that same shadow again, but this time he didn’t see anything at all.At last, he gave up the idea of something weird in this house and left the home while bidding goodbye to Ella. On his drive to his home, Ethan again saw a black shadow in his rearview mirror behind him. He suddenly pressed the brake in fear and his heart started pounding heavily as he took a deep breath and then turned to look at the backside.But to his surprise, there was nothing. He again looked at the rearview mirror. Still nothing. He then again started the car and drove to his home.After reaching his home, he greeted his parent and went straight to his room. He locked himself lost in his own thoughts and the fear rising up in his heart making him feel heavy.…Ella:After the shower, I went down to prepare the breakfast while all my other friends were lying on the couch and some had fallen from it and are now on the floor. I grinned as I made my way to the kitchen.After just 10 minutes, I was out with a tray of breakfast in my hand. Before walking into the room, I glanced at Oliver’s door and there was no sound at all. Seems like they are still sleeping.I then make my way to my room and surprisingly Ethan was awake in the room, but he looked tense. I don’t know why? I asked him in worry and what he told me doesn’t make any sense at all.I simply laughed at his words because I think he was trying to prank me but he didn’t say anything at all and his silence was really making me a bit restless.He left and I stared at the back of his car for a long time until Oliver called me back at home. We both cleaned the whole mess, I cleaned the pool while Oliver was busy dumping the garbage last night was freaking hell for us but I enjoyed it.It’s been a long time, I felt happy and relaxed all thanks to Oliver. I looked up at the back door of the house and there I saw Oliver walking towards me with a big plastic garbage bag.“Here” He opened it wide as I dumped the garbage from the pool in it. My eyes then caught something weird as I asked surprised. “These bones…”“Yeah, seems like last night again some animal came here. I think I need to keep a gun in the house in case.” Oliver said thoughtfully and I completely agreed to it, what if someday we encountered any wild animal in our house?After cleaning the whole house, I felt too tired to cook so Oliver made the lunch and after lunch, we both went out in search of a gun. Oliver looks impulsive to me but still, I think his worry is justified. It would be good if we keep the gun at home for our safety, as soon as we can.Ella :We walked around the market for quite some time until Oliver finds the right shop he was looking for for a while. He finally picked a semi-automatic rifle and finally, we were home back.It was dark when we reached home. We had already bought the dinner from outside because that’s Oliver’s punishment for making me walk too long. We choose a random movie and started watching it together just then my phone beeped.I hid it under the blanket as I know Oliver didn’t like using phones while watching movies. Strict rules policy. I then unlocked my phone just to see Ethan’s message.ETHAN: Ella are you and Oliver have baptized?I frowned while reading his message. Baptism? Where did that come from?ELLA: No, why you’re asking?ETHAN: I think you and Oliver should get baptized and also ask a priest to give you a visit in your ancestor’s home.ELLA: Is everything fine, Ethan?ETHAN: I don&rs
Ella:As I stepped out of the bathroom, Oliver was already standing with my pajamas I took them from his hand and wore them."Something strange happened to me, Oliver," I told him in a hoarse voice as Oliver just hugged me and comforted me."It must be a nightmare.." This is what he told me but no, I know very well it isn't any nightmare... it was f**king real, that pleasure, that pain. I felt everything.."I don't want to sleep alone." I snuggled in his arms like a kitten. I know, I can't stretch this topic more without any solid proof."Okay, let's sleep in my room." He told me as he held me up and took me to his room. I blushed the way he was taking me like I am his bride.I giggled while staring at his beautiful face while he just stared at me in confusion."What? You look weak that is why I am carrying you."But I just smirked at him like stupid. Why he always takes care of me so nicely? Oh God, why he is so attractive and cute sometimes
Ella:I was on the way to the Ethan House, as I reached there to ring the bell but no one was at home so I thought to ask the neighbors about Ethan's family.As I ring the neighbor’s bell. The uncle walked towards me.Uncle: "Yes dear what do you want?"Me: "Uncle I am Ethan's friend do you know where is Ethan's family."Uncle: "No I don't know maybe they left in the afternoon."Me: "Thank you."I tried to call him again and again but no answer, so I thought he might be busy with his family we will talk later.I left from there and reached home, parked my bicycle outside our new home. Oliver has not come till now.I was too tired so I thought to relax then I sat on a couch thinking about yesterday's night trying to remember all the things that happened to me.I didn't realize when the clock struck 7 as I stood up to take shower to freshen myself. I discarded my clothes slowly while walking to my bathroom. I filled the tub with
Ella:I was shocked and happy too to see Ethan in my bed, at first I felt like I am having a dream as I pinched myself to confirm it’s not my imagination. I then snuggled in his arms happily, his body was warm much warmer than it could ever be.I looked up at him didn’t know I was smiling like a fool. How did he sneak into my bed and also when?He suddenly opened his eyes making me startled for a moment, and then he pinned me down by his heavy body suddenly. I was speechless by his sudden action as he smirked and started sucking my neck like a vampire.I tried to push him away as I asked, “Where were you, Ethan? You made me worried.” I hit his chest showing my anger as he didn’t respond and continued sucking on my neck.“Ethan,” I urged him to reply but to no avail.He looked too desperate and I didn’t have the heart to stop him. As I pulled his neck close to me and kissed him passionately. Oh, it felt so
Ella:"Hey, girl, What's wrong?" One of my friends asked from behind startling me."Nothing, Have you seen Ethan today in the assembly?" I asked her trying to get any information about Ethan. Ethan has been becoming mysterious day by day. Since the last time he visited me, he was completely fine but after that, he had been started acting strangely and so as Oliver.In Lunchtime, I was using my mobile phone in the bathroom mostly calling and send messages to Ethan but no reply at all. As I was supposed to leave the bathroom the one of cleaner lady caught me and then I was sent straight to the Principal's office.F**k, can't this day gets worse. I cursed myself in the mind as I was walking to the Principal's office door. After suspending me from the school for a whole week, and scolding me Finally Principal let me go but before I could turn she stood up from her chair and all the envelopes on her desk fell down because of her disbalance.I immediately bent dow
Ella:I left the hospital feeling downhearted. Instead of taking a taxi, I decided to walk to my home or the ancestor's weird home.It started raining when I walked away from the hospital, I didn't care I still kept on walking.My mind was going through all the incidents that happened in the past, the weird sensation I felt from the furniture in my room, Oliver's denying touching me, That shadow I saw in the window when I first arrived.Ethan also complaining about a shadow that day. All these things indicate one thing and I am now shivering in fear with the possibilities. What if..?My mind went completely blank, I don't know what to do just then I heard Ethan's voice in my mind. He asked me for baptism. Yeah, right. I could ask a priest to come over and pay a visit to our house.We have never been religious because our parents never taught us about it but it's high time and I should seriously consider going to the church and baptized myself and Oliver
Ella:After few moments, as I calmed down and the drowsiness started fading away from my eyes. I looked up at Oliver and the past events started flashing into my mind.I remembered things but not clear it came as blurred and also my head, my head hurts a lot when I tried to put pressure on it to remember things. I frowned in pain as I touched my head and found a gauze wrapped on it."What happened to me?" I blurted out, confused."You fell off the stairs," Oliver replied calmly."Fell off the stairs? I don't remember it." I told him feeling confused."What last thing do you remember?" He asked me.As I tried to put pressure on my mind to remember but all I could see were blurred images. "Ethan? Where is Ethan?" I asked him panic rising in my body."You need to calm down first." Oliver held my shoulders and said."What happened?" I asked as I stared into his eyes.He sighed and then replied, "Ethan is no more."BOOMI shook
I heard the footsteps near my room and quickly hid the matchbox under my pillow again. Oliver walked in with some medicines in his hand."Oh, I forgot to hand you these after the soup." He said apologetically and I gave him a polite smile while taking the medicines from his hand and swallowing it down with a glass of water.Oliver just stood there not leaving. He was hesitating I don't know the reason as I asked him to kill the awkwardness he is building in the atmosphere between us."What?" I snapped."Uhmm actually, no need to get offended." He said before cautiously and then continued. "You had been sleeping for 3 days so you need to change actually or take bath." He looked down at me meaningfully and I realized that I am wearing a big diaper under my trouser.F**k. Do I look like a Toddler to him?My nostrils started flaring in rage and embarrassment as I yelled at him, "Oliver, What the...""Quiet Ella..!" He shut me and then started explainin
