First Time

Michael POV:

She looked so pretty. I stopped what i was doing and just stared at her. Why hadn't I realized how pretty she was? Iwondered.

She saw the look and was mesmerized by it. She stood staring back at me, while time stood still around us.

Aurora folded her hands in front of her, self-consciously. “I really like your house, it's big and beautiful,” she said, for something to break the silence.

I smiled. “I’m glad you"

"Perhaps too big, does it get lonely here?"

"That's why I have two cats to keep me company"

"True, do you get scared"

"Scared?" I asked surprised

"Like somewhere in the big corner of your house, a clown is there lurking, hiding around in the shadows, waiting around to get ya" she said jerking forward for a jump scare.

I stare at her, not flinching the slightest bit.

"Mrs Hardy, did you just tried to scare,?"

"Oh' no sir. No sir, I wouldn't dare" She chuckled

"But seriously, the dark seems darker in houses like this, it takes an heart of steel not to get spooked
