Spooky Drum Beats

Me and my parents just come back from a 2 month holiday in Wales. We were so glad to come home because we had missed our house and our own bed. For some reason when I looked at my house for the first time in 2 months, it looked a bit spooky but I thought nothing of it as I hadn’t seen it for a while. Not long after we had got into the house, my dad had a phone call off his sister saying that her husband was rushed into hospital because of an heart attack. My parents decided to go South Wales to see them and they were going to stay there for a few days which meant that I was stopping at the house alone.

When they left, I went onto the computer and started talking to people then not long after that I went downstairs to get me something to eat. I looked in the fridge but almost everything in there was out of date so I decided to go back upstairs. As I walked up the stairs, I heard someone messing through my stuff in my room and some whispers. I snuck into my parent’s room and got the gun out and then ran into my room with the gun up, however, no one was in there.

I was in my room looking around and then I heard whispers all around me, I got so scared, I grabbed my suitcase which hadn’t been unpacked yet and the pile of money that my mom left me and ran out the house. When I got out into the streets, I told my mom everything that had happened. She said she would see what she could do then hung up. Not long after that, she text me saying that she phoned my ex boyfriend Chris and that he should be up any minute now.

I was waiting for a couple of minutes and then I seen him walking up the street towards me.

‘Wow, you are one changed wench’, he said. I stood there not saying anything because I couldn’t believe my mom phoned him.

‘So what we going to do? Just stand here or what?’, she said all sarcastically. He wasn’t being very nice, however, as we were standing outside my house, I heard these drum beats, similar to the ones on the film Jumanji. They were really loud and they come from my house. I was the only what that heard them, he looked at me all weird and he started calling me a freak. I decided to go to the shop to get me and Chris something to eat.

When I came out the shop, Chris was still giving me weird looks. I told him I was too scared to go into the house but he would do nothing but call me a weirdo and a wimp. I stood outside my house and the drum beats got louder and spookier. I was about to walk down the footpath but I couldn’t because I was way too scared so I ran off up the street leaving Chris on his own. I didn’t care because he was horrible to me.

I was half way up Bilston Street having no idea where I was going to go when suddenly, I seen one of my old friends Mitchell. I hung out with him for a bit. He was wondering why I was wheeling a suitcase around with me so I told him everything. He said that I could stop round his flat for the night.

The following day, before school, I quickly went to mine to put my school uniform and made sure Mitch was with me then went to school. However, we had P.E and I totally forgot which meant that I didn’t have my P.E kit. I wasn’t bothered because we didn’t have P.E until the last 2 lessons.

At lunchtime. Me and Mitch went out of school and to my house. We stood outside and no drums were beating but as we walked down the footpath and then the drums started beating. Me and Mitch got really scared and ran off back to school. I was so overwhelmed with fright, I started to feel dizzy when I arrived into school.

For P.E, we had Mrs Tiernan and we did all types of sports such as rounder’s, badminton and gymnastics. However, in the middle of gymnastics, I passed out. When I woke up, Mrs Tiernan made me carry on doing P.E. This was a bad idea because I felt so dizzy and was worried about passing out again. Near the end of P.E, we all sat into a circle and were resting. This girl who was in my group called Charlotte was giving me dirty looks and was acting all hard.

Me and my best friend DJ were sitting next to each other having a laugh but then we suddenly started kissing in front of everyone. It felt really good and for the rest of the time while my parents were away, I stopped at DJs house because I was too afraid to go back to mine. Me and DJ started dating.

Additional Comments:

This was such a spooky dream but although me and DJ have never actually dated, I did start liking him when me and Kye split up.
