As they ventured deeper into the mansion, their flashlights casting eerie shadows on the walls, Emily found herself gravitating towards Matt. She couldn't deny the flutter in her chest when their hands touched as they navigated the dark hallways.

Meanwhile, Sarah and Jake lagged behind, their whispers and giggles echoing through the empty rooms. Emily raised an eyebrow, noticing the way Jake's arm casually slung over Sarah's shoulders.

"Looks like we've got two couples on our hands," Matt whispered, nudging Emily playfully.

Emily blushed, but couldn't help smiling. She had always thought Matt was cute, but never thought he'd be interested in her.

As they explored further, they stumbled upon a grand ballroom, the chandelier above them casting a dim, eerie glow. Emily shivered, feeling an unsettling presence in the room.

"Guys, I think we should head back," Sarah said, her voice trembling. "This place is seriously creeping me out."

But Jake just chuckled, pulling her closer. "Come on, babe, it's just a little spooky. It's fun!"

Emily exchanged a worried glance with Matt. Something didn't feel right.
