Chapter 461 - A Tour In A Horror House
After they were done eating their snacks, Matthew asked Sophia if she wanted to continue strolling around and riding those extreme rides.
They only finished one ride. There were still lots of remaining rides they could try. But Matthew wanted to bring her to the Horror House.
He thought it would be fun inside. He wondered if Sophia would be scared or not. He liked to see it for himself.
"Sophie, are you afraid of ghosts?" Matthew asked her. They were now walking around the park.
"Hmm. I don't know if I'm afraid of ghosts. I've never seen one. Hahaha," Sophia said, joking.
Matthew just looked at her with amusement.
"How about watching a horror film? Are you scared?"
"Hmmm. It depends on the movie," She simply said.
"Alright. Do you want to try the Horror House first before riding the Ferris Wheel?" Matthew pointed his finger at the Horror House Booth nearby.
Sophia followed his line of sight and saw the Horror House. From their spot, they could hear the loud screams coming from the Horror House.
"Is it really scary?" Sophia murmured.
Matthew chuckled when he heard her. "Let's go and find out."
Sophia just smiled at him while nodding her head.
Soon the two of them bought the entrance ticket for the Horror House Tour. They would wander inside the horror house as the ghosts, scary creatures and monsters would try to scare them to the bone.
The light inside was very dim. They entered the house, everything was very quiet at first. They could see the scary-looking figurines being displayed inside as well as the scary props of beheaded animals hanging on the wall.
Sophia was not afraid since Matthew was with her. However, her heart almost jumped out of her chest when suddenly a skeleton man appeared from behind, touching her shoulders.
"WAaaah!" That's the first scream of Sophia after entering the horror house.
Matthew frowned after seeing the Skeleton man touching Sophia's shoulder. He immediately removed his hand and twisted it.
"Aaaah!" That was the scream of the skeleton man who was wincing in pain after his hand was twisted by Matthew.
"Don't touch her!" Matthew warned the Skeleton man with his stern cold voice matched with his sharp glare.
The Skeleton Man raised his hands as a sign of surrendering. He immediately ran for his life, leaving Matthew and Sophia.
Sophia and Matthew continued the tour as they moved forward. The path they were taking would lead them to the exit of the Horror House.
They had to pass through the six stations before they could reach the exit. The Skeleton man was the one assigned to scare people in Station 1.
As of now, Matthew and Sophia were traversing in Station 2. The area was a little bit darker compared to Station 1.
They could hear small tiny voices laughing at them but they could not see them. Maybe it was a recording speaker. That's what they thought.
"Kek Kek Kek Kek!"
"Kek Kek Kek Kek!"
"Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi"
"Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi"
Those sounds were enough to send shivers down their spines. They also heard some faint murmuring sounds.
The two started guessing the voices from what creatures they belonged to.
"A dwarf? Or goblin's voice?" Sophia said, referring to the first voice.
"Witches," Matthew mumbled after hearing the second voice.
"Sophie, guess this! How about this? Ho Ho Ho Ho Ho?" Matthew added.
Sophia giggled as she hit Matthew's chest. "That's Santa Claus!"
Matthew let out a husky laugh. At least, he made Sophia laugh because of that corny joke.
It did not take long when Sophia and Matthew reached Station 3. White smoke engulfed the entire room. They wondered what kind of creature would appear this time.
After a few seconds, a white lady came out of the secret door. She approached Matthew from behind. Matthew just felt cold hands roaming around his body.
Matthew almost punched the white lady fortunately he was able to stop himself. He didn't want to hurt a lady so he just stood there.
Sophia arched her eyebrow seeing the white lady hugging Matthew, her hands caressing Matthew's chest and abdomen.
Sophia glared at Matthew who was not doing anything.
"Enjoying yourself, aren't you?!"
Matthew: "Huh?"
'Eh, what does she mean by that?' Matthew just stared at Sophia, clueless.
Sophia stomped her feet before marching towards Matthew. She moved behind him and grabbed the hair of the White Lady, pulling her away from Matthew.
"Ouch! Ouch!"
The white lady immediately released Matthew's body. Matthew turned around only to see the White Lady and Sophia, fighting. Each of them trying to grab each other's hair.
Matthew's eyes widened in shock. But he recovered quickly. He tried to separate the two women. When he succeeded, he immediately grabbed Sophia's hand, gently pulling her to the next station.
When they arrived at Station 4, Matthew asked Sophia curiously.
"What happened there?"
Sophia shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know. I just tried to pull her away from you so that we can move to the next station when she got mad and tried to pull my hair."
Sophia feigned innocence. She omitted the part that she was the first one who pulled the white lady's hair.
"Okay, just stay beside me. I don't want you to get hurt during this tour," Matthew said, believing her words.
Sophia just nodded her head obediently. She was rejoicing inwardly. 'Hmmm serves her right. She was taking advantage of Matthew moments ago so I gave her a lesson.'
"Ok, let's go…" Matthew held Sophia's hand as they continued walking. Station 4 was a narrow hallway. They wondered what creatures they would encounter in this area.
After a few seconds, they heard footsteps coming in, when they turned around, they saw nine scary-looking Zombies, with their strange movements.
At that certain moment, they felt like they were in the movie "Train to Busan".
"I think we need to run!" Sophia mumbled.
Matthew just nodded his head with a smirk. They held each other's hands tightly as the two of them began running away from the Zombies.
The Zombies ran to follow them. They tried to catch up while maintaining their role as Zombies. But Sophia and Matthew ran faster than them so the Zombies failed.
Sophia and Matthew were panting and catching their breath when they reached Station 5. Matthew's eyes locked on hers then the two of them ended up bursting into a peal of laughter.
"That was fun!" Sophia said cheerfully.
"Yeah… so much fun." Matthew's gaze was fixed on Sophia's lovely face. She was still smiling widely.
In station 5, Sophia and Matthew were chased by the floating coffins. Then, from out of nowhere, vampires appeared and joined the chase.
When the two of them were trapped, Sophia could only hide and bury her face in Matthew's chest as he tried to send away those vampires and coffins.
Sophia closed her eyes and hugged Matthew tightly. She didn't want to get beaten. She's afraid of scary creatures with fangs.
Matthew didn't know whether to cry or laugh because of their current situation. They were trapped in a corner, surrounded by ugly-looking vampires.
They were supposed to be handsome and beautiful. Why the hell, did they make them look ugly?
Matthew was shielding Sophia against them. She was just hugging Matthew tightly as she sunk into his body. She could smell his masculine scent. She loved it.
Matthew warned the scary-looking vampires to leave them alone already. He signaled them to go away as he wanted to savor this moment with Sophia.
Imagine… Sophia was in his arms right now while she was clinging to him.
"Are they gone?" Sophia asked Matthew, her eyes were still shut close.
Matthew smiled watching the ugly-looking vampires leaving them. "No, they are still here." He lied.
"Argh! Can you beat them so that they could leave us alone?"
"Nope. There are too many of them. Just stay here, like this. I'll keep you safe. They won't touch you." Matthew reassured her, stroking her hair.
Unknown to Sophia, the ugly-looking vampires already left. They stood there, hugging each other for several minutes.
The room was now silent. The only sound Sophia could hear was Matthew's heartbeat since her head was leaning on his chest.
Her heart also began to run wild after realizing that they were too close to each other. She was about to break the hug but Matthew didn't allow her.
He pulled her again, engulfing her into his strong arms. Sophia could only bite her lower lip. Matthew didn't want to let go of her.
"Don't move," he warned her.
Her brain seemed to malfunction. She didn't know what to say. She wondered why Matthew asked her not to move.
She gazed up only to see Matthew looking at her intently. Sophia's heart raced even faster after meeting his gaze.
'Why is he looking at me like that?'
She was hypnotized by Matthew's intense gaze. Before she could realize it, Matthew already closed their gaps and his lips were already brushing her lips. He kissed her!
