You smile as you read to the headstone, or rather the statue above the headstone.

You had recently moved to this town, and it was bubbly and pretty and so not like home at all.

One day you stumbled across Bachelor’s Cemetery, you thought it was really cool, especially since no one ever went there. They were terrified of the place.

You regularly cleaned the place up and left gifts at gravesites, but you had a favorite, Necros. He was technically unnamed so he was given Necros after death in the record books and headstone.

He had a beautiful statue above it with his face. You thought he was absolutely gorgeous, for the face being made out of stone, anyway.

You continued to read to him. You were soaking up your last hour for the day before you were dragged by your stepsister to a party. You really wanted to stay home.

You finish the book and put it in your bag. You grab the bracelet you made for him and drap it over the sharp corner of the headstone.

“I wish I could be with you. Keep this safe.”

—————Later————

It’s really late and you’re heading home when you hear some rain, remembering someone at the party mentioned a thunderstorm. You immediately book it to your house.

An hour later after the storm has really kicked up and getting into your pajamas, you hear a knock at your door. You answer it, it’s a man.. creature..? thing that has the same face as the stone you love.

He tries to come in.
