Night, you, and butterflies

She opened the eyelashes which were closing firmly, her body was extremely hot, dull and lasting feeling as she had just finished jogging. On her cheeks were the familiar bitterly salty flavor of teardrops, and the fresh mint scent of his skin, that she thought she had already let it slip off of her mind on a random day.
Speechless.
He was there. Front of her. That countenance, those lips, those eyes lines. That was him, wasn’t it?- @sapphireissafy

A Scary Moment
Source
The hairs at the back of her neck stood up and a strange chilling shock ran down her back and she loudly swallowed the lump in her throat. The rows in the cemetery were lined up silently and it all seemed creepy to her. Sydney heard a strange noise and she shouted into the cold night,
"Who is there?" she screamed and it suddenly felt as if someone was watching her.
She had never been so scared all her life and suddenly, icy fingers gripped her hands in the darkness and a shaky voice said in her ears "Boo!" and almost immediately, she let out a shrill cry into the darkness.- @tozill

Now we are one entity, we live and think as one, we work as one and we sail the seas as one. There is no captain, no sailors, no cadets. There is only the wandering ship at sea. And we are attracted by life, by people, and above all by news from the outside world. So, we go in pursuit of that. We are anchored in this cursed spot, sailing in this doomed area. Without knowing how it happened, only that it happened and that we cannot sink, no matter how badly the hull is damaged or how much the machine squeaks. Those who were once human now give life to this ship that single-handedly goes after the others.- @ricardo993

The Correction

We sat outside and heard Josephine cry as she screamed our name for help. All the doors were locked. She called but we did not answer her.
Making it scary, Aunty Tina decided to make use of the word she told us in a story that the ghost used to eat people up, "BOO". The word came from the window, on hearing that word Josephine became even more scared that the ghost is going to eat her up.- @iyimoga

Breaking Ice: Bring Me Home
Black leapt back as the ice finally gave way. Nonstop, he barked, hoping to alert his master and lead him home.
Alan surfaced a few minutes later, the unconscious girl with him. Black immediately grabbed a hold of the hood on her coat with his teeth, tugging with all his might. Alan, using the strength he could muster, hoisted her up, aiding Black to pull her out of the water completely.
"Do a CPR champ!" Alan yelled.
Black hesitated, clearly wanting to help his master out.
"Now!" - @deraaa

We could see the house now, it was close by and we ran faster until something jumps out from the bushes. It’s someone in a Freddy Krueger costume and immediately shouts “BOO!”.
“Aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh”. I screamed while crying. Meanwhile Jake had jumped into my arms screaming “I don’t want to die! I don’t wan’t to die! I don’t want to die!”.
Just then we hear laughing from the back while the person in the costume takes off the mask. It was Nate, Toby and Jasmine.
“I’m the girl here. I’m supposed to be in your arms you dimwit!”. I screamed angrily while looking at Jake. I immediately drop him on the ground.- @madamnaomi
