Creepy House

Chapter 4

Emma's POV

"Hey you two we have done anything as a family in a long time." I say.

"I cant I have plans." Henry says.

"More like he is failing school to get that girl Violet to like him." Rosie says.

"Shut up dumbo. Im not the one running off after school going who knows where." Henry says.

"I go home. Unlike you." Rosie says.

"Liar you ditch school and run off." Henry says.

"Rosie is that true?" I ask.

"Yes. Over the last couple months of being here hasnt been too nice at school." Rosie says.

"Thats enough. Henry go study and Rosie your staying home. Oh and your both grounded." I say.

"Thats so unfair." Henry whines.

"My kids shouldnt be failing school and or ditching. Now Henry cancel on Violet and then both of you upstairs now." I demand.

"Yes ma'am." Rosie says.

I went out with some friends and my mom staid with the kids.

Henry's POV

Stupid Rosie got me in trouble and then I looked out the window and saw Rosie going across the street and headed into the yard behind the creepy house. What is she up to? I went out my window and followed her.

"Wow, thats a great idea. A rose bush would look amazing right here." I heard Rosie say.

"Well then lets get planting." A voice says.

I went to walk back when some put their hand on my shoulder.

"Hey let go." I say.

"Why are you spying on me?" Rosie says.

"What are you doing at this creepy place?" I ask.

"Helping Killian plant flowers." She says.

"Who the hell is Killian?" I ask.

"That would be me lad Killian Jones. You must be Rosie's brother Henry." The man says.

"Rose we need to go." I say.

"No you can go. Im busy here. Oh and please dont tell mom please." She says.

"Hey Rosie its getting late and mom will be home soon." I say.

"Rosie go with your brother. We can finish this tomorrow." Killian says.

"But what about the story you were going to tell me. You know about the house and the garden." Rosie says.

"Another day lass. Now run along." Killian says.

"Okay bye Killian come on lets go." Rosie says to me.

We walked back and sat outside on the porch.

"Mom's going to kill you." I say.

"Well tell her if you want. She will still have to talk to him to make sure I dont go over there." She says.

"Is that your plan?" I ask.

"It wasnt at first, but then when I got ti know him I came up with this plan to let them meet." She says.

"You cant do that! You cant set them up! I wont let you! What about dad Rosie!" I yell at her.

"He isnt coming back Henry. Also Im not setting them up romantically Im setting them up as friends. Killian just wants someone to talk to around his age and mom needs to see he isnt a bad person." Rosie says.

She walked inside and I looked at that creepy house and thought about my dad. He will come for us no matter what my mom and sister say.
