The Charm of the Night

Our camp started with the sounds of laughing and giggling, echoing all over the area. We were discussing all about the funny incidents we had in our life. Even though we had just met, we still got mixed with each other quite well.

That was when one of us gave the idea of horror stories night. This did even sound interesting so everyone agreed to it, except for me. This was one of my biggest fears 'GHOSTS'. I knew I was gonna freak out even if someone told me silly incidents related to it. So I tried to get away from there.

When I reached my camp I suddenly heard someone's walking on the leaves. That was more than enough to scare me. I was all sweat. Scared, I tried to ran back to the group as being alone in the camp was scarier than listening to horror stories with them. "Ahhh!" My scream broke as my leg slipped. I was about to fall when someone had a catch hold of my waist and saved me. I took a sigh of relief. I was not able to see his face. He lifted me up as I thanked him for saving me. The group also arrived due to my scream. They flashed the torch on us. It was Adrien. Till now , I had only seen his funny side. But this was the first me seeing his charming personality. To be honest , I was quite impressed with him.

Let's leave this topic for the time being. I explained them what just happened now. They all started mocking at me. Actually, I can't even blame them. It was a good topic to mock because the thing which I got scared of was just a little cat. So embarrassing it was.

Now when we reached the fire place Claire was the first one to come up with the story. She started

" Alice a teen of N city with her friends on her seventeenth birthday, came up with a unique plan to celebrate her birthday. They decided to explore one of the most haunted mansions of her town."

Adrien was sitting right beside me. Then story soon ended with me having a frown face the whole time.

"Rose" Adrien called me who was floating with my own thoughts," It's quite late so ,I think I should leave."

"Yeah" I answered.

"So,my hand?"

" Your hand?" I looked down.

"Shit! Sorry,I didn't mean to."

What the hell! I was holding his hand all this time. Was this why I wasn't as scared as usual?

It was really gonna be a very unusual and interesting turn of my story. I don't really knew that time but now I do.
