I pause and look out into the horizon. “Who are you?” I whisper into the night. There’s no answer. Only the pull of the tide. In. Out. In. Out. Like breathing. Like waiting. I return to the cabin just before midnight. The windows glow warm. I leave the painting turned against the wall. I can’t look at it again tonight. I slip into bed, still in my long dress.

I look at it, heart hammering away inside my chest. The mess of ink on the white paper reminds me of the monster that lurks in Nana and Papa’s basement, the one that tried to get Abby and Scott to go downstairs with it.

“I dream of women. A lot.” “That’s scary? Hah. I didn’t think you were that sort of Greek.” “Piss off and die badly, sir,” Porcius shot back. “No, of women in the night, women in the woods.” “I see monsters in the woods.

Three days later Brittany's POV I held onto her hand as we continued to walk over to the next painting, our steps halted and my eyes moved forward as I gazed at it in pure admiration. "Do you like it?" She asked softly as I rested my head against her shoulder, finding her presence comforting.

Although Nathaniel had given me permission to stay out late, it was of no use. I was going to go upstairs, drink water, sleep, and in the morning, I would figure out what came next. Mainly because that was all I could do right now. But first, I would have to call Pamela. She needs to understand that Elliot tricked me. The lights were on in the living room. I almost walked past because Nathaniel always had the lights on for some reason; he often left them on when he fell asleep, resting on the couch after a long shift. I had covered him with a blanket more times than I could count over the past two years.

When I opened my eyes, everything felt wrong. The air was too still. The light was too dim. And the silence… the silence felt watched.
