"Sam, I love you. But this isn't my type of thing."
I had ended up staying behind at Colby's to hang out with everyone, while he went to vlog with Brennen. Sam however needed to film a 3:00 a.m. challenge for his channel. Jake and Kat had already agreed to doing it, which made me look like a cry baby by protesting.
Jake presses the palms of his hands into my shoulders, rubbing the tightened muscles, "Chill out Sa. We will all be together. If you can play the Ouija board with Colby, than you can do this."
I played the Ouija board with Colby and now I always hear weird ass shit, Jake.
Kat gives me a small, distressed pout making me whine, "Fine, I'll do it. But, you have to promise if to weird of shit starts happening, we quit immidiately."
Katrina agrees before letting out a small squeal, " I can't wait to be possessed by the midnight man with all my besties."
yay, me neither.

"You do it, Jake.", I push my pointer finger towards him, as he holds the sharp knife in hand.
Jake takes grips the shaky hand, as Sam turns the camera away from us, and makes a small cut on the tip of my finger.
I mumble a small, "ouch.", before Jake quietly apologizes.
I smudge it onto the paper, following Jake to wash off the blood.
We stay silent for the first few seconds until I decide to talk, "Do you think this is real? Colby told me I shouldn't mess around with this type of stuff."
He gives me a small smile through the mirror, passing the hand towel over.
I couldn't help but admire him in this few seconds. Jake was honestly really attractive when you took the time to look at him. For someone who just recently went through a breakup, he was acting normal and happy. Almost as if she was a burden.
"We are all skeptics. So I don't know if this is real, but I do know you'll be okay. I've got you for sure."
He quickly adds while shutting off the lights and holding his hand out for me, " Besides, Colby can't be a hypocrite. He does stupid shit like this all the time."
I stare at him blankly before giving a closed mouth smile, and grabbing his hand. He was right, Sam and Colby always do this type of thing. They seemed to turn out fine, except for having a haunted ass mansion.
I give a closed mouth smile, and take his hand, letting him pull me to Sam's room.

"Don't forget you can't look behind you, ever.", Sam whispers as we walk down the stairs.
For three hours, Sam, Katrina, Jake, and I have to walk around the pitch black house trying to be as quiet as possible, and making sure we never turn around. Most important part, we can't let our candle blow out ever. We aren't supposed to stop moving.
Apparently the midnight man is supposed to show himself in different ways, such as noises, blowing the candles out, and making himself seen.
For two hours, we barely even heard anything. Everything we had seen or heard, could be debunked. Until 3:00 a.m. hit, a. k. a, the witching hour.
"Let's hear upsta-", we all get cut off by a kitchen cabinet slamming shut. I slap a hand oved my mouth as tears swell up in my eyes, please tell me it was just a draft. Please.
Katrina grabs onto my arm and I do the same thing to Jake, only to have him pull away and start walking towards the kitchen.
My eyes widen once I realize he had looked behind him, "Jake! You can't turn around!".
Just as realization hits us all, that we had actually broke the ritual, glass shatters everywhere causing all of us to jump back.
Katrina pulls Sam as I do the same thing to Jake, and we all quickly end the ritual in Sam's room.
We sat in silence as Sam sets his camera down, saying it was off. I noticed the power button still on, but don't say anything. He needs content, I get it.
"Let's be honest. What the fuck was that? There is nobody home guys.", we all start ripping the papers with our names on them and throw the pieces into the trash can near the bed.
"We can figure out what happened later, but right we need to burn those papers now and clean up the glass before everyone gets home!"
Why did you guys have to be such skeptics???? Why couldn't we do overnights in Disney or something?
