Smooth Criminal- Michael Jackson

Sounding heartbeats, intimidation
Annie are you okay?
So, Annie are you okay?
Are you okay Annie?

Darlenes POV:

"Why did we have to go at night this makes it so much worse" I say anxiously as we approach the entrance. My stress levels are already rising and we aren't even in.

"It's not as fun during the day, it's scarie-" he quickly cuts himself off turning to me and giving me a dramatic smile.

"Scarier at night, go ahead and finish your sentence" I respond with a sigh.

Trust me, I know how annoying I'm being. But imagine how frustrating it is for me. I don't wanna be this way but yet here I am.

"You're gonna make me feel bad for forcing you here" Harry responds with a soft laugh, pulling me into his side as we continue walking.

"Don't" I sigh, wrapping one of my arms around his back, "the last thing I wanna do is ruin the trip you do each year" I try and reassure.

I mean it, even if this isn't exactly my thing I'm not gonna let it put me in a bad mood.

There's a bit of a line at check in but once we're through I look down the path ahead of us which is already swarmed with...monsters? Actors? I don't even know what to call them.

Harry's pace doesn't let up, he's just going for it. No mental preparation, no pause in our journey.

Great, love that.

I fall a bit behind, unknowingly my pace slowing down a bit. See, even my subconscious is trying to tell me not to go any further.

But the last thing I need is for these actors to see me by myself, I feel that makes me more of a target. I lightly jog a few steps to catch up with Harry who hasn't even noticed my absence.

He looks down at me when he feels my presence, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion. Clearly he just realized I wasn't walking with him that whole time. He just raises an eyebrow as if to say 'you okay?'.

I nod my head even though my heart rate is starting to pick up. I just move closer to him to tightly grip on his forearm.

I should just hide behind him.

No. Oh my god I'm so annoying.

He doesn't comment on my actions thankfully. I know he's going to make fun of me, I've given up hope on trying to convince him not to.

I jump slightly when I hear screams, the sound coming from behind us. I turn my head to the side seeing two girls being chased by a man with a chainsaw.

They run past us, the man on their tail but he lets them get away stopping a bit ahead of us.

I hope to god he doesn't approach us.

I just avoid looking at him, I hold my breath when we're about to walk by him. But Harry's keeping his normal pace, when I hear the roar of the chainsaw I jump quickening my pace and dragging him along.
