Bogleech.com's 2013 Horror Write-off:

"I Love You"

Submitted by Oak

"I love you."

The last words we'd ever have from us. The last kind sentiment before darkness fell.

"I love you" Echoed through the night, accompanied by frenzied footfalls and panting breath as we swatted branches out of our way. Our heart raced and our vision blurred, slippery tendrils of something brushing up against out feet, grasping at us, our fowl presence attempting to slow our escape. We ran until one of our tendrils from our horrible form grasped at our leg, forcing us to a halt.

We attempted to hide our face from us, but we were too strong, our grasping claws and sinewy slimy slithery things pulling us to our feet.

We turned.
