Things that go Bump

There’s a creature living in my vent. It makes little scratchy noises sometimes and scares the living daylights out of me. I’ve stopped sleeping in my room. I can’t deal with it. A few weeks ago it made me panic enough to run over my laptop trying to get away from it…me and my cracked screen are not happy. The problem is no one else has heard it and apparently there’s no way a creature could possibly live in my vents because it would need food to survive and living in a vent doesn’t allow for much eating. So I’m starting to feel a bit like a 6 year old with a monster under her bed. The easiest way to deal with this would be to shine a light down the vent to see what’s in there. But even the thought of having two beady eyes looking up at me has scared me enough to have me moving rooms. I used to like my room…until the creature claimed it.
