Rooney put a supportive hand on her shoulder and nodded. "No more. None at all." Well, if she didn't go looking in the cracks of walls and under her bed. Maybe in the bathrooms too. Dark and damp places.
Noelle was distracted by the spiders and her eyes were darting every which way. She knew just there were big huge spiders lurking in every corner now. You know how you realize you have a bug on you and then you brush it off and kill it but you still feel as if bugs are crawling all over you? That's how Noelle was feeling right now.
"
i won't go looking through the cracks. Or any... Damp and dark places." Oh! They were going to miss the staircase! Jumping up, she saw it had come and was already starting to move. Noelle grabbed Rooney's wrist and pulled him up on the step before they missed it.
"
Im sorry. I didn't want us to loose our chance on getting on these things."
