Head and Shoulders Above. Content Warning.
Y’know, it wasn’t as if anyone would ever consider me a suspect for it. The building had been there longer than I’ve been alive, and they only recently decided to tear it down. I mean, my god, the cruelty of the man involved—everyone knew he was a pervert. It’s a wonder they even let him work there, for god’s sake. His clothes stank, he never shaved, and his hair dripped with grease and chlorinated water. My stomach flip-flops just remembering those awful lessons I was forced to endure with him.

Skinny Sidney
Goodnight Was what Sidney heard from her mom before she drifted to sleep lan Sidney was in her dream, a field of wheat surrounded her and swayed in the wind creating a light smack as they hit each othe It was dusk from what she saw, the sun making the sky pinks and oranges fading to blue getting darker and darker as the warmth of the sun turned to cool, dry air. She lays down in the field looking at the faded orange sky. As she lay for a few hours in the dark field an odd scent fills her lungs almost making her cough with the strong odor. She sat up confused and looked around. She saw, nothing just pitch black around her, the wheat being gone but the moon and cold air remaining. Suddenly she heard a hissing noise beside her and soft patting of footsteps around her. She started getting worried and felt a bit odd. The foot steps got closer getting louder by the second, surrounded her though it sounded like one of whatever was there. Closer an then, silence. Sidney saw nothing but still felt a presence, feeling an odd sensation directly behind her, close at her back practically touching her. At this point, fear stuck her body taking over her and telling her to run, but something told he curiosity I guess, to turn around. So she slowly shifted and looked behind her, and saw... nothing she calmed down and turne back but standing in front of her was this black figure, long arms and bony clawed fingers, stretched open eyes the size of gol balls and a mouth into a wide smile looking down at her, before she could scream she woke up, chills down her spine and swea running down her face. She ran to her mothers room crying from what she saw. Her mother holds her as she's still shaking She soon starts to calm down and her mother walks her back to bed and lays beside her calming her and making her fall back asleep When she woke up the next day and her body ached. Her back stung and her hands felt cut up. But when she looked at herself nothing was there. So she just shrugged it off and got ready for school. Half way through the school day, she got an awful headache and her muscles felt odd, like they were stretching like her bones were too big for her skin. She told the teacher about this and she was taken home. She told her mother about her aches and her muscles feeling weird and her mother took her to the doctor. As the minutes went by her bones felt like they were growing and her skin was starting to turn red with irritation. The doctor said it might be an irregular growth and to come back if it got worse. Sidney went to bed aching and itching but she eventually fell asleep at 2am Sidney was in her dream, in the same field from before, the sunset glowing and the cool night air drying her throat. It felt unusual because she could feel the air on her skin, giving her goosebumps. But she just stood up in the field and looked around. She started walking around. It seemed like a lucid dream because she realized it was a dream or, so she thought. Sha kept walking around and soon the orange of the sky turned black. As she was walking she soon stopped to the sound footsteps. She remembered her last dream and got very worried so she started walking faster. The thing followed so she ran faster and faster. It was still close behind and she turned her head and saw the dark figure chasing her, the same smile across its face and a few seconds after looking at it. it disappeared. She started to slow down and turned her head back to her front But she soon regretted her choice, as the creature stood straight in front of her. She backed up and it clawed her face, making a big claw mark down her eye. She screamed in pain as it stung but soon got even more terrified remembering that she should feel pain in a dream. She snapped awake hearing footsteps banging down the hall towards her room
