The Girl In My Attic - Ch.1
*If you have not read the intro (or if you read it a while ago) you may need to (re)read it to understand this chapter*
~The Girl in my Attic
– Chapter 1~
|
I sat in a cold room. I could hear dark whispers floating
through the air… Was this a dream??
|
A bright orb of light made hissing noises. I felt trapped
and concealed in the room, like the world had frozen.
|
I felt a cold embrace pull me toward a faint shadow I the
air… ‘Who are you?’ I whispered
|
‘I am, the girl in your attic,’ hissed the ghostly voice,
‘My name is Alice.’
|
Then I was laughing. It was a dark, sweet and innocent
laugh. It felt so faint yet so real as if the dream was a memory…
|
Then suddenly it was like a crack had appeared in the
dream, it started to blur and echo. I looked into my face to see a painful
crying girl and I heard the piercing scream of fear.
|
Then I saw her again, ‘I am the girl in your attic,’ she
repeated…
|
‘And…’ she continued in a hushed tone as the dream went
silent… ‘You have trapped me here…’
|
A force of energy hit me through my stomach and I felt
gravity take me down. I looked up to see a purple dress simply slide into the
wall…
|
The there was a crack, a scream, a pain, an echo and a
hissing voice all at once and I…
|
Woke up… My eye’s shot open, my heart was racing and I
was damp with sweat… I sighed and rolled onto my back.
|
I squinted at the light filling my bedroom and sat up.
That was one of the worst dreams I’d had in a while…
|
I glanced around my room checking for any signs of the
dream, but the girl and the voice were gone.
|
I perched onto the edge of my bed and pulled a small book
out from under the mattress. It was my dream diary; I had started it a few
months ago when I started having these terrifying nightmares.
|
I wrote down what I could remember of the dream before
placing the book back under my bed and going out into the hall way and down for
breakfast.
|
I entered the dining room to be greeted by a fresh smell
of lemons and waffles. The room was brightly lit with daylight streaming in
from the garden.
|
We sat down together for breakfast. ‘Do you want to talk
about it?’ Mum asked gently, but I just looked down and pushed the food around
on my plate.
|
Mum took the hint and understood I didn’t feel like talking.
We ate in silence until Biff started licking my feet from under the table, so
that I couldn’t resist smiling.
|
‘You’re going to be late to school sweetie,’ mum pointed
out and she was right. I would have missed the bus by now so I would have to
walk.
|
By the time I arrived at school the first lesson of today
was almost over… The halls were deadly quiet and the sound of me walking echoed
all over the school.
|
‘Hello Lilly,’ said Mrs Page as I walked through the
door, ‘Nice of you to decide to show up,’ she said sarcastically. I blushed and
sank into my seat.
|
I arrived home at the end of the day and walked into the
living room to find mum and dad.
|
Dad looked up as he heard the door close; ‘Hello Lil!’ he
said with a warm smile, ‘How was school today?’ ‘Okay,’ I replied softly. They
were the first words I’d said all day.
|
Mum suddenly turned away. ‘What’s wrong?’ I said slightly
confused. ‘Lilly, you fell down the
stairs in the attic,’ Mum confirmed
|
I went to sit in my room and watched Biff asleep on my
bed.
|
I know it must have
been horrible for mum after my accident… I
thought to myself, but I’m older now and
I’m aloud to do what I want…
|
I sat down on the floor and looked closely at them; they
were photo albums. I opened the first one to find pictures of a cute cubby
little girl… me.
|
Almost the whole photo album was photos of me in the
attic… I must have loved it up there. I was smiling, laughing, playing… But then
I turned the page and saw a very strange photo…..
|
Suddenly I heard something move behind me. I jumped up
and crouched behind an old wine cart…
|
But as I looked up there was no one in the attic.
|
I bent down and picked up the rotten teddy in my arms,
when I heard a dark hissing noise… the noise from my dream…
|
I shot up. I felt suddenly concealed and trapped. I felt
like I was being watched, like I was in my own dream… I felt frozen with pure
terror…
|
I grabbed the two books and kept hold of the teddy and I
ran as fast as I could from the attic, down the corridors and to my room
without looking back.
|
I sat down on my bed and looked at the bedroom door half
expecting a furious nightmare to burst in and take me away… But nothing came…
Nothing had followed me…
|
I set the teddy in the comer of my room and sat down with
Biff to try and calm my nerves.
|
Then I remembered I had the second photo album to look
through… but the photos didn’t calm me at all…
|
The photo with me and the strange object at the end of
the last book was the last photo of me before…
|
I fell down the
stairs in the attic and broke my back…
|
That night I went to sleep and put the old teddy I found
by the corner of my bed.
|
Then I saw her. The ghostly face, but she wasn’t in the
attic… ‘You’ve got my teddy,’ she hissed…
|
I woke up. Then I screamed.
|
‘Lilly!’ my mum screamed as she ran into my room, ‘what’s
wrong!? What’s happened!?’ she said gasping for breath. ‘It’s her!’ I cried…
|
‘It’s the girl in the attic…’
