One Shot Stories

Wake Up

Fifteenth

+++

Somewhere between bitter and dirt crawls over her tongue with those tiny feet and hairs tingling the roof of her mouth. The itch inside her stomach flares without any butterflies but another being. They all have wings, others fly but majority only creeps in, many of them escapes from her throat and the bitterness lingers.

She woke up and sat on her bed, coughs, sending a cockroach over her blanket. Her eyes widen at sight and she frantically turns at her pillow. It was covered by those tiny, horrible creatures, hundreds of them maybe, that made all the hairs of her to stand.

She accidentally caught a glimpse on a mirror stuck on her closet, frightened to see nasty earthworms slithering from the blood red holes throughout her face. Flies force their way out of the little spaces on the corner of her eyes. She shrieks and screeches while trying to wipe her palm on her cheeks.

Against her ear-splitting voice, she heard a horrifying sound of a metal scraping another metal behind. Carefully, sheen of sweat on her face, she looks around. A huge black, cloaked figure floats exactly near the edge of the bed, holding out those long fingers without flesh. Thick coil of horns poke above its hood.

Slowly, as if preparing for the wide stretch, it opens its mouth as it hovers close to her. She presses her back against the wall, over the bed of cockroaches and worms, blood instead of tears stream her eyes. The cloaked figure was near in swallowing her whole.

And when he wraps his arms around her, that's the time when she truly awakes.
