I was sleeping once when I saw them. They shone like the stars; blue green eyes. I saw them in my dreams too that night. When I woke up in the morning, they were gone. I told my mom about it, but she thought I was just imagining things or dreaming about them. She said it was just another hallucination and asked me not to watch horror movies or TV shows anymore.
I didn't stop seeing them however. They were there in my bedroom in a dark corner everyday. They wouldn't do anything but just be there. I wondered who was looking at me as I slept, but soon I got used to them being there. They would stare down at me and I would look at them with awe. Instead of getting scared, I started thinking of how beautiful they were. They were something which I needed to see when I was sleeping.
I remember telling my friends about them and they made fun of me. I invited four of my best friends to my house that night for dinner and a sleepover to show them the eyes. We were all tucked up in bed and ready to sleep. We switched off the lights and stopped talking. I started looking for the eyes and got disappointed. I tried looking for them in other places but couldn't see them.
That night I woke up in the middle of the night. I was thirsty. I got up and got myself a glass of water. When I came back to bed, there they were. Where I always saw them. My gaze was transfixed. I wanted to wake up my friends and show them. But the eyes told me not to. I turned towards my friends and saw one of them waking up and looking at the eyes. I could see the color of his face going pale. He started screaming. The eyes had become red now. I was scared too. Suddenly they vanished. Everyone was awake and asking the terrified boy what he saw. But he wouldn't open his mouth.
It has been a long time since the incident. I have moved and changed apartments many times since then. And then I saw them again yesterday; bright and shiny as ever. Looking at me from across the room as I curled up in my blanket, the eyes.
