"Waterwheel আপনি gotta agree with me here!" Zeph went down on his knees in his begging position. I pushed him away.
"Fine whatever" I ব্যক্ত walking across the road. Noticing as I turned to look back, Zeph was cheering jumping in the air a happy grin on his face. He raced across the road catching up with me.
"Admit it!"
"Admit what?" I asked as got my phone out to look at the time. Zeph appeared in front of me walking backwards as I looked up.
"You can't resist my good looks huh?" he stroked his black hair with his hand winking at me.
"Are আপনি kidding? Your ugly!" I stuck my tongue at him. He spun around moving পরবর্তি to me.
"I'm se-" before he could finish I whacked him with my bag sending him into a fence.
"Hey! What was that for!" he cried getting up looking at the damaged fence. "Your lucky no ones around here to see that!"
"Ugh I wish I never met you!" I walked ahead not bothered to look back. "I wish Simone had never chosen us as partners for the Science Fair project! Its all your fault!" I punched him as he appeared পরবর্তি to me.
"My fault? Your the one who belted my back!" he rubbed his back as if he were hurt.
"You and your stupid boy বন্ধু threw rocks at us for no reason!" I screamed as we arrived at the train station. As I glanced up the stairs I saw our train taking off.
"No!" Zeph put his hand out. It seemed like he wanted to grab it.
"Great! The পরবর্তি train is coming in 30min!" I crossed my arms.
"I know a short cut" Zeph ব্যক্ত tugging my sleeve.
"Where? Bus? Are আপনি gonna pay someone to drive us to your house with your dashing good looks?" I rolled my eyes he knew I was being sarcastic.
"Through the woods" he pointed north at a tall black iron gate. Through it আপনি can see the tall and big trees. Rumors say every night a man with long arms and no face haunts the forest. Once আপনি go in there's no way আপনি can get out. The government doesn't let anyone in অথবা out except their guards who stand in front of the gate. There's a schedule so after 2 hrs অথবা so they change over.
"No way I'm going in there" I ব্যক্ত glancing at the guards. Zeph groaned.
"Your scared about Slendy huh? It's just a stupid rumor to make little kids scared. After all it is দিন time" he pointed at the sun. I breathed out.
"Fine. But if we get caught I'm blaming it on you" walking towards the gate it was 5:55 just a few মিনিট until the guards go and walk off to switch times. We knew the schedule pretty well especially Zeph. He knows it off দ্বারা heart. Waiting patiently the guards finally disappeared to a near coffee ভান্দার around the corner. It was our que! We ran to the gates and squeezed through the gaps. We kept on running till we were out of sight.
"Okay so where now?" I asked panting between my words.
"There. অথবা was it there?" he pointed in different directions.
"Don't tell me আপনি don't know" he jerked his head to me.
"Of course I do" he started to walk off whispering to himself. I had to follow. I don't know but I had a feeling that something bad was gonna happen. It's just a stupid rumor about Slender. But what if he is real? I eased it off my mind humming to myself. Thinking about it won't help.
"Have আপনি even been here before?" I asked. That was a stupid question! I thought. Obviously he'd say-
"No actually" my mouth dropped.
"What!? আপনি have never been here before?"
"No" he kicked a rock out of his way. I literally slapped myself. "One of the guards told me. He looked like a rookie" I slapped the back of his head
"Well don't believe in stuff rookies say" I put my hands in my pockets as a vast if wind clasps my face. "Where now?"I asked. He looked around confused.
"I don't know"
"What?!" I screamed. "We're stuck in the middle of nowhere! I'm stuck with.... YOU!" I was so stressed, angry, annoyed. I tried to calm down. "Let's go back the way we came" we walked from the direction we came from. Light began to fade away stars began to be seen clearly. Darkness began to cover around us. It felt like hours, the cold wind, our legs ached and not a single word came out of our mouths. Zeph made a sudden halt, I stopped nearly bumping into him.
"This isn't going to well..." his smile began to fade into a frown. I couldn't believe I was going to do this.
"At least w-we have e-eac-ch o-other-r.." I slowly rubbed his back like if he was my little brother, which I do NOT want to happen. Surprisingly he didn't push me away. He turned around to face me.
"Gross but yeah. At least we-" his eyes widen. He started to walk backwards tugging my sleeve. I turned around to see a tall skinny man in a suit, long arms and NO face. Thought it was all a joke a rumor but it wasn't. I had to run. Quick.
We started to run. I looked back and he was gone. I felt a tap on my shoulder.
"Don't look back" Zeph replied gasping. I sighed in relief. We ran side দ্বারা side, looking straight forward. We ran into a big tunnel, slowing down we looked back to see if he was there.
"This is not happening!" my voice echoed through the tunnel. A finger landed on my lips.
"Shhh he can hear." he looked across the tunnel wall, a piece of paper stuck against it. He walked up to it, snatching it from the wall. I peeked over his shoulder.
All it ব্যক্ত was...

"NO NO NO NO NO NO NO"

Across the paper. I looked behind us and tried to scream but no sound came out. There came the tears, fear in our eyes, his hands reached for us and-
"What do আপনি have there?" a voice interrupted. I glanced up to see Zeph and his বন্ধু starring at me.
"Hey Zeph, it has your name in it!" one of his বন্ধু pointed at his name written in my scrap book. "Must be one of her dreams about you" the boys laughed. I rolled my eyes and slapped my book shut.
"Whatever" I headed out to my locker. The ঘণ্টা rang and I didn't get to finish my story. I saw the boys were following me, and I knew why.
"Have a great date!" Aidan ব্যক্ত walking away.
"Yeah I hope the "experiment" is fun!" Liam did the impression of the "speech marks" and winked at me. I stuck out my tongue. Kai gave Zeph a thumbs up and ran to catch up with the others. Zeph had an annoyed look on his face and followed me out of the main doors.
"So what about a solar panel?" I asked going down the stairs. He groaned.
"Nah too may people doing that. What about, a windmill?" I shook my head. For 5 মিনিট he made suggestions and I shook my head. I was getting sick of it. The sun's heat began to make me hot, I wiped my forehead with my sleeve.
"Waterwheel আপনি gotta agree with me here!" Zeph went down on his knees in his begging position. I pushed him away.
"Fine whatever" I ব্যক্ত walking across the road. Noticing as I turned to look back, Zeph was cheering jumping in the air a happy grin on his face. He raced across the road catching up with me.
