(I may edit this one day! Hope u enjoy reading!)

The clock struck 3am…I was peacefully sleeping for now anyway, it was quiet…the quietest sleep I had this week.

This week, I’ve been waking up due to nightmare after nightmare..it’s all the same dream..I’m standing face to face with something that looks identical to myself…then it becomes something horrifying a clawed entity of sorts, it slashes the claws at me then…I jolt awake in a sweat.

But today was different, no nightmares but what woke me up was a tapping sound against glass, I woke up, confused. I sat up, running a hand down my face.

“…just when I thought I could get some sleep,” I muttered to myself, I looked at my window…maybe it was that..I debated whether I should look or not…I sighed heavily, before grabbing my glasses, sliding them on, and standing up, heading towards the window, I then hesitantly pulled back the curtain…

There was nothing.

“…strange..” I said, as I looked around, there still wasn’t anything…I ran a hand through my hair, still trying to figure out what the hell that tapping noise was, I then turned to my mirror.

It can’t be that…right-

The tapping noise intensified.

I take a deep breath before walking over to the mirror, keeping my distance.

I stare at my reflection…

I don’t even know if I can trust my reflection anymore though, with the nightmares I’ve been having and with the noise that I now discovered was definitely coming from the mirror..

Then my reflection changed, it looked more uncanny…whatever it was had a sharp grin, its eyes widened.

I stumbled back.

“What the he-“I started, till whatever it was tilted its head.

I grabbed a towel I left on the floor from my shower the night before, I threw it over the mirror, covering the entire thing..

I then inched my way towards the door, hands trembling slightly, I was definitely not sticking around in my room tonight, so I left, slamming the door shut.

What I thought was a dream, followed me into my reality…I don’t even know how this is happening…or why it’s happening..
