It was a long day at work, I just wanted to go home and see my husband walking into the house all the lights are off he must be sleep I think to myself I carefully walk up the stairs trying not to wake him up, I kick of my work shoes letting a sigh out as I do I climb into bed next to my husband and he wraps his arm around me but, somethings off "honey?" I asked, he shifts a little but no answer so I say it louder "H-honey?" I hear a toilet flush down the hall "yeah?" my husband calls from the bathroom, then I hear snicker besides me I lock eyes with something thats not my husband, not even human "who are you?" I can feel the tears already running down my face, a smile goes wide across it's face I cringe at how the mouth keeps on stretching all the way around to the back of it's head " what's wrong dear?"  it sounded like my husband "didn't you miss me?" I can't help but tremble as I feel razor sharp claws cut my skin "What Are You?' 
was the last thing I managed to say as I heard my husband scream for me, his mangled body hung outside the window.
