    Summary

    Ellie can feel it. She’s jumpy and no more than 2 feet away from him even when they settle down to pick through their packs for dinner, not running through each room exploring and digging through drawers like she usually would.

    “You okay?” he asks, when the ceiling creaks above them and she nearly jumps out of her skin.

    She shifts nervously and looks around, “I don’t know, man, I just feel like - It’s weird in here, right?”

    It is, but she won’t sleep if he confirms her anxiety, so he shrugs, “not weirder than anywhere else. Just an old house.”
