About Me

My photo
My name is Brittany and I made this blog to let my friends see the short stories I write. Some of my short stories are true, not most. I make most up. I called this blog "Wilted Rose" because the rose symbolizes love and the wilt in the rose symbolizes heartbreak, which we all go through. I put that in some of my stories, and I've faced it before, and I know I'll face it again.

Conscious

  It was barely visible, but I saw it. I didn't know what it was; this was the first time I had seen anything like what I saw. It walked out of my room as I walked inside. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
  But later, I saw it again. It was leaning against the wall in the doorway to my brothers room. It had the outline of a person, but I couldn't recognize it. It was yet lighter than everything else, than all its surroundings. I looked around, to see if anyone was near me who could help me out. Only my friend, but she wouldn't believe me. She was asleep and if I woke her, she wouldn't want to deal with something like this. She would be no help.
  Whatever it was, it appeared closer when I turned back at it. I was scared. I started shaking, trembling with both fear and cold. I felt my eyes water. In seconds, my cheeks were soaked. I closed them due to the burning I got from the makeup seeping into my eyes. When i opened them, it was closer. It was coming into the living room, where I was at the computer. I tried physical pain to get me out of this nightmare. It didnt work. I looked back about every five seconds. I didn't see much more every time. Only about every ten times I glanced over did I see it move positions. It was slower than earlier.
  I looked at the clock. 6:23 am. Outside the large window behind me showed that the sun was already beginning to rise. I had stayed up this long, so I figured it was just lack of sleep.
  I only saw it once after that. It appeared darker because of more light being shone on it.
  Only when the figures stopped showing up did I believe that all this happened. The whole time, I was fully conscious.
