    The boys in the mirror

    ***You sat in the living room just watching TV, not really doing much, mostly zoning out. Few hours went by and you started to get bored, you huffed before scrolling through your phone, nothing exciting, God this was boring...but that's when you remembered, you had an attic, you've never saw what was up there when you moved here, maybe you'll see something cool? Doubtful, but why sit and wait? You got up and headed upstairs, you grabbed a random chair and stood up before trying to open the door, man it was really wedged in there, has the previous owners not opened this in decades? You pulled harder before getting wacked in the face with the ladder, falling off the chair as you laid there, groaning in pain, man that hurt...you huffed before sitting up and wiping your nose, great, your bleeding...that can be a later problem.

    ***You stood up and looked up at the attic, it was dark, were there no windows up there? You grabbed your phone and turned on the light, then started heading up the ladder. Once you reached the top you looked around, it was empty, till you saw I white sheet covering something, you couldn't help but get a slight chill up your spine, but you shook it off and climbed in, taking another look around, just emptiness, except for that white sheet, it was like taunting you to take it off on what it was covering.

    You stood before walking over to the sheet, stopping Infront of it, this was probably a bad idea...but oh well, you grabbed the sheet and took it off...it was just an old mirror...seriously? But that's when you realized, you couldn't see your reflection, it was just pitch black, not even your phone light was reflecting off it, that was...weird, you took a closer look, you saw something, a...person? No you're probably seeing things, but that's when it turned to look at you...what the hell- that's when all a sudden a hand popped out from the mirror, like something was coming out of it, you jumped back and fell, letting out a yelp as you did, the hand continued to come out, then an arm, then a whole entire body, you just laid there, shook, couldn't move, everything felt so...cold
