2 Years Too Late : Seen At 11:11

Chapter 1

Location: Claire’s bedroom – Maplewood, a small town near Portland, Oregon Time: 11:02 PM Weather: Light rain, overcast sky, wind brushing tree branches 🌧️
Claire hadn’t opened her curtains in three days. Her room smelled faintly of lavender and forgotten tears. The rain tapped gently on the glass. It was quiet — until her phone buzzed.
She ignored it. Probably another late-night promo.
It buzzed again. Then again.

Unknown
I’m sorry.
Unknown
Unknown
I had to leave
Unknown
Unknown
But I'm coming back
Claire stared at the screen. Three messages. From a number not saved. But... familiar.
Claire
Claire
who is this?
Claire
Claire
If this is a joke, stop. Not funny.
Unknown
Unknown
You still sleep on the left side of the bed.
Unknown
Unknown
And your nightmares haven’t stopped.
She froze.🧊
The room suddenly felt colder. She glanced at the door. Still shut. The window — locked. But something in the air had shifted.
Claire
Claire
What the hell…
Claire
Claire
Who ARE you?
Unknown
Unknown
You cried for 16 nights.
Unknown
Unknown
You stopped on the 17th.
Unknown
Unknown
You wore my hoodie every night that winter.
Claire
Claire
Claire
Claire
No one knows that.
Claire
Claire
No one but…
Claire
Claire
Liam?
Her thumb hovered over the screen. Liam had died two years ago. A car crash.
Rain. Fog. She was supposed to be in the car with him. But he had insisted on dropping her off first. Said he’d be fine. He wasn’t.
Claire
Claire
No
Claire
Claire
You’re NOT him.
Claire
Claire
Liam is DEAD
Unknown
Unknown
Then who’s been texting you all this time?
Claire’s blood ran cold. She dropped the phone. It buzzed again — louder, sharper. Almost like a warning.
Unknown
Unknown
Look behind your bookshelf.
Unknown
Unknown
The red diary. Page 12.
Claire
Claire
WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME???
Unknown
Unknown
To tell you the truth.
Unknown
Unknown
About what really happened the night I died.
Now it's 11:11 PM

Draft

📍 Location: Claire’s bedroom – Maplewood, Oregon 🕒 Time: 11:14 PM 🌧️ Weather: Rain intensifying, distant thunder, wind rattling the window
Claire stared at the bookshelf.
The rain outside had turned violent — like it was screaming secrets through the wind.🌧 Her hands shook as she stood.
She hadn’t touched that shelf in months.
Dust. Silence. And something else — a pull she couldn’t explain.
📚 > Claire pulled the books apart. There — tucked behind a photo frame and a cracked snow globe — was a red leather diary.
Just like the message said. She hesitated. Her fingertips hovered over the worn cover. It smelled faintly of pine and blood.
📖 [Diary – Page 12]
"If she ever finds this, it means I failed. The truth was too big, too dangerous. But Claire deserves to know. The crash wasn’t an accident. And I wasn’t alone."
Claire
Claire
What the hell is this?
Claire
Claire
Failed? Dangerous?
Claire
Claire
Who was with you, Liam?
📱 Buzz
Unknown
Unknown
You shouldn’t have opened it yet.
Unknown
Unknown
They might be listening.
Unknown
Unknown
Are your lights off?
Suddenly, the power flickered. Then died. 💡
Claire stood in complete darkness. The only light came from her phone screen, glowing like a warning.
Claire
Claire
Who’s “they”?!
Claire
Claire
Is this some sick game?
Unknown
Unknown
No game. No joke.
Unknown
Unknown
They’ll come now.
Unknown
Unknown
You triggered it.
Thunder cracked. A loud bang came from downstairs. Not thunder. Not wind. Something had entered the house. 🚪
Claire
Claire
No. No no no…
Claire
Claire
I’m calling the police.
Unknown
Unknown
They won’t come.
Unknown
Unknown
Not in time.
Unknown
Unknown
Check the back of the diary.
Unknown
Unknown
There's a key taped to it.
With trembling hands, Claire turned the diary over. A small, rusty key was taped behind the last page.
It had a symbol. One she had seen before. In Liam’s journal. In his dreams.
The spiral. The “Eye That Watches.” 👁️
📍 Location Shift: Hallway – Claire’s House 🕒 Time: 11:19 PM
The house groaned. Footsteps — but not hers. Slow. Deliberate. Wet.
Someone… something… was inside.
Unknown
Unknown
You’re not crazy, Claire.
Unknown
Unknown
You were right to question the crash.
Unknown
Unknown
Use the key.
Unknown
Unknown
Basement. Now.
Claire
Claire
I’m not going down there.
Claire
Claire
This is insane.
Claire
Claire
I’m scared.
Unknown
Unknown
You should be.
Unknown
Unknown
But this time, don’t run.
Unknown
Unknown
Or I really will die… again.
A shadow moved past the stairwell. Not Liam. Not human.
Claire clutched the key to her chest. And stepped into the dark. 🕯️
