I couldn’t sleep that night. Caleb had gone back to my house and I was tossing and turning in and amongst the sheets in one of the bedrooms that was now classed as mine. I couldn’t get over Leah. She wanted to help me but it sounded like it was only for the benefit of getting some kind of reaction from Caleb, or was I just being too sensitive and taken the whole thing the wrong way? Whatever it was, the stress of it was suffocating me. I kicked the sheets completely off me and slammed my arms down on the bed at my sides in frustration.

My eyes were wide open and when I couldn’t take anymore of staring at the ceiling, I got up and slipped into my dad’s room. I didn’t know if it was the guilt from today or just the safety that he always gave to me but as soon as I lay down next to him, sleep slowly began to find me.

I woke up, sweating, hanging onto my dad’s body for dear life.

Eyes. I could feel them on me. My skin was crawling with the sensation.

I sat up and ran over to the light switch, flicking it on. Light filled the room, highlighting every single nook and dark corner, but apart from my still and silent dad, I was completely alone. My eyes darted around the room, and I was fully expecting something to jump out at me. Ten minutes of standing and constantly surveying the room, only to reveal nothing but my dad and the shadows, I climbed back onto the bed wrapping my arms around my dad.

“It’s okay,” I murmured to myself.

I might not have been able to see anything, but the prickle on my skin told me we were definitely not alone.
