The Mirror

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clocking making its usual ringing noise. I reached over and pat the button real quick with the tips of my fingers. "I'm not ready." I said to myself. Today was the day I learned if i kept my job or not. I got up out of bed and looked at the time. 7:02 A.M. O slipped on my house shoes and made my way across the house. First thw bathroom and then the kitchen to pour me a bowl of ceral. After i finished eating I went back into the bathroom. I got my tooth brush ready and began to clean my teeth. I leaned down to spit and when I raised my head up i swore i saw the shower curtain move. It wasn't a light move when air hits it but it was jerked closed. I didn't hear anything and i didn't see anything else for a few seconds so i went back to brushing and then i finished. Soon i got everything ready and i left for work.

I pulled back into the driveway and got out of the car. The sun was setting and the day was ending. 14 hours i spent at work and half of that was meeting after meeting. I unlocked the door and walked in setting my keys and wallet on a small basin next the the door. I turned om the living room lights amd switched on the television to the evening news and made it into the kitchen for a small bite to eat. I sat down with a plate of food and began to listen to the news. Nothing interesting. Thats when i heard it. A loud thud from the bathroom. I sat for a moment and heard another thud. "What the hell." I stood up and made my way through the kitchen into the bathroom. When i switched on the light all the body soap and shampoo was laying in the middle of the floor. I scratched my head at the scene but came to the conclusion it just fell. I finished picking up the bottles whem i heard another thud but this time not as loud. It definitely came from the same room whem i looked it was my razor fell of its shelf and into the sink. "This can't be right." I picked up the razor put of the sink and lift it up to place it on the shelf when i did i happened to look in the mirror and from the shower curtain was a pale face with a small grin on its face. My heart jumped into my theoat and i quickly turned around but nothing was there. I hurried and looked back in the mirror but nothing. I walked back into the living room and sat back down. I grabbed my plate and began to eat my food. I teied to forget that face I seen. The creepy way it smiled and its thin red lips and dark eyes. Eventually it left my mind and i got up and got ready for bed. I went and stripped down to mu underwear and a t-shirt. Best way to sleep. As i was moving things around I kept seeing a dark shadow moving in my mirror sitting on my dresser. I quickly dismissed it as i didn't want to think about it. I pulled the covers off and got ready to lay down when i happened to look at the mirror on my dresser and at the bottom I seen the dark undercarriage of the bed and in the darkness that same pale thin lip face smiling the same creepy smile. I was stuck. Couldn't move but was locked on to this things gaze. Slowly it pulled began to pull itself out from under the bed but as it did so ita body looked contorted in an inhuman way. As it stood up its body was literally bones with skin hanging off. The eyes never blinked and the smile never faded. It was tall and it was skinny enough ti see its ribcage. The weird thing was as it stood there on the other side of the bed i could only see it in the mirror. I finally blinked. That was a mistake. It was gone. I didn't take any chances. I grabbed every mirror in that house threw it out in the trash bin. Not a single mirror was left in that house. I laid down and managed to get some sleep. I woke up to a loud clap. I tried to sit up bit i couldn't. I tried so hard but i was like a weight was on my chest. I looked around and my living room light was on shining into my room and sitting on my dresser was my mirror and in the reflection i say me laying on my bed and also that same pale inhuman looking thing with that same creepy smile just mere inches from my face. The mirror showed what my eyes couldn't see. My heart thumped my pulse quickened. I didn't know what to do. Very slightly I felt somthing moving across my neck. I looked into the mirror and this things long bony fingers were wrapped around my neck. Its cold hands cradling my neck and head. With a quick motion i felt a sharp sheering pain. The thing dug its nails into my neck. It slowly kept pushing in its fingers going deeper and deeper. After a few seconds blood started to spurt out of my wounds coating the invisible entity's hands and then pooling around my bed staining the sheets in the process. My heart began to slow down as I lost more and more blood. My body began to get colder and i shuddered abit. Finally without the mirerir i saw it before the darkness toom me, the last thing I saw was the pale face and dark eyes and the creepy smile.
