Would the footsteps pass the door, or was some one coming to this room?
He heard footsteps passing his door as someone made their way home.
We heard footsteps passing around the house toward the front and a moment later the form of a man darkened the door.
It seemed hard to believe that a human footstep had passed this way for months.
The footsteps passed behind him, slowed, came around, and stopped.
The footsteps had definitely passed his door going to the stairs.
After a few seconds they heard a door bang and footsteps pass in front of the window.
But no footstep ever passed the floor immediately below: except his own.
The footsteps passed her room and receded down the hall.
With a tiny breeze and a moment of warmth, the footsteps passed by.
