Chapter 3: That Doesn't Sound So Bad

Start from the beginning
                                        

"I called 9-1-1 after we left, is there some where you'd like me to take you?" she relaxed at the information but furrowed her brows at my question.

"My family lives in a different state, erm you can drop me off at the nearest gas station ill just find away to get there."

"Nonsense, Im traveling around I can always drive you there, plus having someone around sounds fun." I said flipping my wrist around and giving her a big smile as she hugged me. Wrapping my arms around her I , not creepily, inhaled her scent, which for your information were strawberries and melon. Fruitylicous if I say so my self.

For your information about us being in the middle of the road. The car is on parked so it's not going to randomly start moving. Oh and this is a road less traveled so it's rarely ever used so no issues with cars waiting behind us.

Getting back into the drivers seat and making sure that im wearing the seat belt correctly this time I shift to drive and drive on into the night.

Knocking at the door caused me to stir from my slumber and to mumble incoherent words to the person who walked in with out my permission. The sounds of their foot steps annoyed me to much that I just turned away from them covering my ears with the pillow. The toast warmness around my body vanished in an instant and my legs were replaced with goose bumps. Crying out obviously annoyed and determined to stay sleeping I curled my legs up and into my shirt regaining their previous warmth.

Next thing I know the spot on the bed next to me deeps and a pair of arms wrap around me as a gentle kiss is placed on my neck. In not even half a second im standing on the bed wide awake with my pillow in hand as weapon looking down at the women from yesterday on my bed with a smirk. Wrapping her fingers around my wrist she yanks me down onto the bed and places her arm around my waist holding me down on the bed.

"Good Morning Beautiful" She look deeply in my eyes while tracing circles on my side.

"Eww now let me go so I can pee." she lets out a small chuckle as I glare at her and stomp away to the bathroom to unload my full bladder.

Stepping out of the bathroom I found Harleen out on the porch shouting angrily at her phone. Not wanting to have her see me I slipped out the room and walked nose first into the rock wall I learned to be named Tony. He looked down at me and laughed at my pain, as you can tell me and him boned quite well. Walking down the hall with him on my heel was very irritating considering that with every step he took the floor shook like a natural disaster.

Once enter the elevator I pushed Level 0 and rubbed my tummy as it roared with hunger. Practically running out of the metal doors I grabbed a plate and rushed through the food line grabbing eggs, waffles, pancakes, potatoes(in many forms), beans, and syrup dumping it all on my plate. Looking around for about a minute I finally found a table but before I could place my tray down Tony took it out of my hands and walked towards two closed doors.

Before I could question him the guards around the door nodded at us then opened the doors revealing a whole lot more breakfast items. Standing there frozen as I drooled a puddle a hand was placed on the small of my back and pushed me towards the chocolate stuffed bread. Not arguing with who ever the hand belonged to I grabbed another plate and stuffed it with more exotic foods which im pretty sure i dont know the names to.

Finding a place to sit wasnt hard considering there was only two tables and my try was already set at the one by the window and the other was by the door where tony stood on watch. Siting down with my back to the room and facing the window I stared outside taking its beauty. The sun was slowly rising making the sky orange with pinks and yellows. The small lake at the bottom of the hill reflected the sky perfectly and the small riffles in the water were caused by a mama duck and its babies swimming around.

"Im glad you like the view." Turning around still smiling I met eyes with Harleen who smiled back at me. It wasnt the same cold one as the yesterday but its still didnt feel right coming from her.

"The first time I took Xena on a really date it was in a park almost as beautiful as this" feeling something wet trail down my face shocked me. I didnt know saying that would make me so emotional.

"Xena was really special to you?"

Shaking my head at her use of past tense. "She still is and always will be"


"I had that once" she said with such sad emotion that it took my by surprise.

"What happened?" I asked worried that I may have passed a personal line.

"Some very bad people too their revenge on me by taking her away from me, she could be dead for all I know." Hearing her talk like there was no hope angered me so badly.

"So you let them take her away from you and all you could think is that its too late, why didn't you just go out and find her. You acted like such a big shot yesterday why the heck cant you just go out there and search for her." I shouted while standing up and knocking the chair down and pounding my fist against the table.

"You think I haven't tried that already. Its not that simple Zelda. The people that took her are more dangerous then me." She shouts back trying to hold back the tears that are threatening to fall down.

"What if I helped you look? Would you help me too?" my voice cracked as sat back down ashamed that I thought she didn't try.

"Only if we dont get killed." she smiled at me for a brief moment before she walked out.

Looking back down at my untouched food I felt do emotional to eat now. Turning to look back outside I let out a small prayer before heading back to my room. Tony like before followed me back up to the room. He stopped me before I entered the room and gave me a soft hug. I dont know how he know but I really did need that.

Going inside my room i slipped my slippers off and relished in the silence now noticing the headache that was going crazy in my head. Bring out the note pad from the night stand by the bed she started to write down everything she remembered about the people she got involved with that ended up in the wrong doing of everything.

After a few hours of writing the ringing of the hotel phone brings me back from my day dream. Leaning over the bed to reach it I pick it up just as the person on the other side of the line was just about to hand up. After five minutes of talking to the hotel manager finally convinced me to go down stairs and check out the the box delivered being addressed to me. Slipping my slippers back on still unsure I walked down with out Tony.

The box had my first and last name written in bold sold black letters on all sides of the box so it's kind of hard to miss that it is in fact for me. Pick up the five pound box I hauled my self back to the room and on the bed ready to open it up with the butter knife I found in the storage area by the mini fridge. Cutting the tape on the top was more fun than I want to admit but no where close to as much fun as I had while jumping on all the bubble wrapping. Taking out the small Photo Album for inside I opened and started flipping through the pages. Two of the pictures caused me to drop them to the floor and then everything around me started spinning before it turned to dark.
