You were running through a dark forest. Your heart pounding in your chest. All you could do was run, it was your only option. You moved your H/L H/C out of your face. The thing that was chasing you was quick. You needed to move fast to not get caught. With a small shriek, you fell over. Tears started to form in your E/C eyes. Fear took over.
"N-no.."
You said, quietly to yourself.
A tall, dark figure swiftly came closer. You could only make out that it had red eyes. You shuffled backwards, too scared to get up.
"P-Please... don't hurt m-me!"
You begged them, shaking with fear
They paused for a moment
"You really thought you could get away?~"

You woke up in a cold sweat with a scream. Your eyes darted around the room, and you took a few calming breaths. You had been having that 'nightmare' for the past week. You checked the time. 3:08 AM. For some unknown reason, you always woke up around this same time every time you had the flashback/nightmare. You curled your legs up to your chest. It was comforting when you did this. Eventually, you sunk back down into your bed, attempting to sleep. After a while of tossing and turning, you fell into a deep sleep.

~~~

You were awoken with a jolt by your alarm for 7:00 AM.
"Ugh."
You hated that you had to get up. You'd prefer to stay in bed and sleep. But, you had to receive money. You were looking after three dogs (one female husky named Snowball), one whippet (a male, named Cloud) and one collie (a female, named Chestnut). You also looked after two cats (both Siamese females named Stella and the other named Lily). Slowly, you exited your warm, comfy bed and went to take a shower. After you put on your clothes- a pastel blue shirt with long sleeves, black jeans, underwear, a pair of snow coloured socks and your grey cat hoodie. You walked down your stairs, and entered the living room. Your cats raised their sleepy heads as you entered, and your dogs almost made you fall over with them jumping up at you.
"Oi, Snowball, Cloud, Chestnut! I told you not to jump up at me!"
You said between laughs.
Once you had got your dogs to calm down, and stop jumping up at you, you made your breakfast. You chose shreddies. Once you had eaten your breakfast, washed up and fed your pets, you slowly left your house- making sure it was locked correctly. You grabbed at your shoulder-bag. Ever since that encounter, you had a slight fear of the forest. But you built up your courage and headed towards the forest. You worked café of course, in the forest. Every time you left at around 8 PM, you felt like you were being followed. Or worse. Stalked. Since it was mid-autumn, it started to get dark at around 5 PM. The feeling of being followed had started after the encounter with the tall, red-eyed male. You hoped it wasn't him.

Soon, you reached your destination- the café. It was 7:15 when you get there. You were greeted by one of your co-workers. A kind brunette with hazel coloured eyes.
"Good morning, Y/N!"
"Morning, Ellie!"
She smiled at you from behind the counter. Soon, customers would be arriving. Luckily, it was quite easy for you since not too many people came to the café. You worked as a waitress, and didn't like big groups of people.

~time skip~

It was almost closing time and you wanted to go outside for a few minutes.
"I'll be outside if you need me, Ellie!"
You called to her as you left to go to the lake nearby.
Suddenly, it was silent. It was almost a death-like silence. You began to become nervous. Just then, someone or something put a hand on your shoulder
"Hello sweetheart~"

(Dang, 701 words.)
