Darkness. It surrounds me.
I'm alone.
Someone's there. I know it.
But I just can't see who is it.
I stand there not knowing what to do.
Fear swallows me whole.
I'm afraid.
But I won't admit it.
I don't know why but I hear laughter.
But they're not my own.
They're my friends'.Laughing.
All of them are. All at once.
I try to scream.
I open my mouth.
But nothing comes out.
I squat down. Hugging my legs.
And telling myself over and over again.
"I'll be alright. I'll be alright."
But I know that's not true...
I'm just lying to myself.
Even I know it.
I just don't want to admit that I'm alone.
I look up.
Tears flowing from my eyes.
My vision's blur.
But I make out a hand.
It's reaching out to me!
I reach up to grab it.
But I just grasp thin air.
I fall backwards as I realise.
That no one's really there.........
