The Fears Are Alive
“Where are we even going?” Riley sighed heavily, wiping the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. “I wanna stay home. It’s too hot to be outside today.” “I think this is nice,” Jonas commented even though no one asked for his opinion. “We haven’t had a nice walk in a long time.” “I too agree that nice walks should be reserved only for lovely autumn days,” Zoe sighed softly, sounding tired and short on breath. Riley was flabbergasted that she was out here in this heat wearing her puffy, frilly black dress. “But as I already told you,” she cast a narrow eyed glare back at Riley, “I sense something.” “Well, how much further is it?” Riley complained, so tired that she was reaching her limit. “Riiiiight…” Zoe dragged the word out, walking a few steps at a quicker pace before she stopped, “here!” Riley and Jonas stopped beside her, looking around. The three of them were standing in an open area of the park, near the vast Shepshed forest, and… the graveyard. “Gotta be a

Thoughts
You're always there
You keep me company when there's no one else around
You break the silence
Even when the silence is all I want
You wake me every night
Whispering my deepest fears
You remind me of my worries
Remind me that nothing's okay
You bring back my worst memories
Or sometimes remind me of my simpler days
Before you came
And I bottle them up and hold them close

You make me forget the things I just said
You fill my mind with panic
Even though you're my only place to hide
And I try to make you better

It was unlike her. It left Riley wondering, and worrying. Zoe had been quiet the past few days, and today, she hadn't even stopped by as she always did. It was night, and Riley hadn't heard from her all day.
"You're worried," Jonas observed, glancing at her as he re-arranged his bookshelf.
Riley's eyes narrowed, but she didn't deny. It was true. With a huff, she rose from the chair. "I'm gonna go check on her."
"Do you know where to go?" Jonas asked, sliding a book into place.
Riley thought for a second. "Wait. No. Where the hell does Zoe even live?"
Jonas exhaled softly. "The inn."
Riley folded her arms across her chest, eyeing him. "Y
