Humans Can Lick Too: Short Story

She climbed the stairs to her bedroom and slid under the big, warm blanket on her bed. Before closing her eyes she reached her hand down under the bed and allowed her dog to lick it. She did this every night because it comforted her. A short while later she awoke to the sound of a scratching noise at her bedroom window. She eyed the window and reminded herself that the whole house was locked and she was safe. She stuck her hand under her

One day there was an old abandoned house. Two boys walked passed they looked at each other and said.” We need to go into that house this weekend” the weekend came around and the two boys went to the. House they walked through the front door it was night time they had flashlights. They were hearing weird noises but they kept going through the house they started to get scared. Then the noise got louder they started yelling and stuff turned on the lights they moved on and out of nowhere the lights turned off as they got up the stairs.

One night as I was walking back home from work, I heard a scream coming from a nearby house. I did not pay much attention to it until, I started to hear it more often. I was curious about what was going on inside the house, so I approached the house where the scream was coming from. I looked

One day my mom came and found me and my sister and told us we had to go somewhere. We went and found our shoes and started heading out the door. My sister and I started hoping down the front steps just about running into a vehicle parked out front. My mom told me and my sister to get in, both of us were kind of scared but we did it anyways. So me and my sister attempted getting into the big vehicle, well it may not have been that big, but to us it seemed like it was. We drove for what seemed like hours till all of a sudden the car stopped. I opened the door and hoped out onto the cold hard cement. I didn’t know where we were at, I had never seen this place before. The people in the car and my mom told us to go up to the front steps and they will be right behind us. So me and my sister made our way up the steps and to a big front door. We looked and found a doorbell and chose to push it. After just a little while the door opened and this younger couple looked down at us with huge smiles on their faces.

One evening, my sister named Bella was trying to get a cup from the cabinet. She had to sit on the counter to reach it. In the process of getting down she caught her pants on the microwave. When she attempted to get down from the microwave, her feet couldn’t touch the ground. Trying to get her pants loose from the microwave, the microwave door came open. The microwave dish fell out and shattered when it hit the floor. She did finally get free and she was fine.

After a few more minutes of waiting Anna decided to get out of bed and walk down to the food court to see if her father was there. After getting out of bed, Anna found a note taped to her father’s chair that she hadn’t seen before scripted in scribbly letters saying Based on your actions he might come back don’t tell anyone about this and he will come back unharmed. Anna hurriedly found the bag of her clothes that her mother had delivered overnight and pulled on a hot pink mini skirt and a white long sleeve crop top. After getting dressed Anna opened her door and stepped outside, there was no one anywhere to be seen. She continued to walk down the hall and there was still no noise and no one in sight. She walked straight to the elevator and went down to the first floor where the food court should be, but there was no one there either, the hospital had been abandoned and she was sure that the songbook and the object that played her melody the night before were somehow behind it all. She ran back up to her room as carefully as she could trying not to hurt her arm, and once she arrived at the door she grabbed the music book off the desk beside of her bed, tried to flush it down the toilet, and stuffed her cell phone in her bag of clothes that her mom had bought. She was about to pick up her bag when she heard a new melody right outside of her door. La, La, La, La, La, La. La, La, La, La, La. La, La, La, La, La. La, La, La, La, La, La, La. She wanted to see what was making the noise so she carefully opened her door and peeked through the opened crack. There nothing was there! She grabbed her bag of clothes and ran down the steps as quickly as she could but then she heard a voice behind her, “Aaaaannnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaa!!!!” the voice moaned “Aaaaannnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaa it isn’t safe at your house!!!!” said the voice. She spun around and saw a scrawny old man

Suena was walking home and she felt like she was being followed, but she thought it was because of the horror movie she watched the night before. It was about a twenty minute walk for Surena to get home and she often enjoyed but that day she didn’t enjoy it. When she got home there was a note on her fridge from her mother saying she’ll be back in a couple of hours and that there was leftovers in the fridge. She still had that icky feeling that someone was watching her, she kept saying in her head that it was just the horror movie scaring her. Her dog Belle was eating the couch again, when her mom got home she’d be mad. Surena went up stairs to her bedroom and forgot to lock the door that day, when her mother warned her many times before to

After battling with death, Rosey opens her eyes and started breathing heavily. In her mind death became a myth. Rosey looks at everyone, but couldn’t hear anything all she heard was a baby crying and a yell of Bruce’s voice “How could you be pregnant,” “Athena is the only one that be carrying my child, "said Bruce. Everyone looked outside and notices it's already getting dark. Everyone grabs their things and heads home, Athena and Susie stay back in their apartment and look at each other. They both go upstairs and go to their bedrooms. Beep-beep a sound of an alarm goes off in Susie’s head “The next day already” said Susie. Suzie whispers to herself and says “What happened yesterday?’’The next day after Susie had her little accident, the girls were at school. Lauren yells "What does your schedule look like India?” "I have AP Macro, AP Lit, Calculus & Yearbook." says India As they were comparing classes a short nerdy girl ran into India making India break a nail.

As she walked towards the white door of her bedroom, she hears distant gurgling. As if the sewers were backed up or the kitchen sink is clogged. Carefully twisting the knob, she was about to take a step out, but was immediately taken aback.

Taking a chance he opens the door, peaking out to plan the quickest route to the door. There’s no one about, meaning his mother had hopefully fled the scene. Quickly he does the same, slipping through the small gap he’s created and rushing across the small flat towards the door, opening it and closing it quietly behind him.

I awoke the next morning happy, reminiscing about the night before and the fun had by all. Suddenly my daughter, mother and sister were at the door. I knew something was wrong because

The young girl was tired. She kept on tripping. Stumbling. Her ears muffled every sound she heard. If walking was hard, climbing into the second story window of her 'lair' was near impossible. But after multiple attempts and falls she collapsed into the hallway and dragged her self into the elevator where she rode up to the

She let him go and she climbed off him, she heard them growling at the windows. She started panicking, “y-you made too much noise.”

The door of her room was slightly open, leaving a crack between the door and its frame. Upon the door, there is a small window half covered by a curtain. Light from the
