What the hell?

I looked at the boy like he was a lunatic. I had many questions, but the words didn't seem to find an escape as my mouth remained shut.

One of the boys looked at the one infront of the television.

"Bro, she woke up.",
he whispered the words while eyeing me like I was another species.

"Duh",
he responded while rolling his eyes as he stood up.

"Boys, stop gawking at the lady, y'all are making her uncomfortable.",
he adressed the others as he made his way to my stunned figure, standing in the doorway awkwardly.

He gave me a comforting and kind smile before offering a hand shake.

"Hello there, my name is George."

I took a cautious step backwards, obvioulsy scared since I was the only girl in a room with three men. He seemed to understand my discomfort, taking his hand back, he spoke up again in a gentle tone.

"You don't have to be afraid from us. I can reassure you, that you are safe within these walls.",
he took a pause to look at my reaction, but continued when realizing that I didn't show any feelings.

"You see those boys? They're Nick and Dream.",
he explained while pointing at each person with his finger.

I looked at the boys, sensing that they look friendly. Nick gave me a friendly smile, but my smile vanished at the sight of Dream, more like the creepy mask he was wearing.

"My name is-"

"Don't tell them your name."

"You can't trust them."

"- Clementine",
I corrected myself quickly, lying into their faces with a good smile.

The boys nodded in acknowledgement before everyone turned around, going back to their previous activyties.

"Let's go upstairs, I can show you your room and give you a pair of clothes to change  into.",
George chirped up.

I looked at him and nodded in agreement. My clothes were dirty and I smelled like a stray dog. George took the lead, as he was already halfway up. I gave the room one last glance, locking eyes with Dreams mask for a split second before following George with a shudder. I followed him into the room that I remembered as the one I woke up in.

"I'm giving you a shirt and pair of trousers that Dream offerd to give to you. The shower is in the room to your left. Call us if you need something.",
he explained before disappearing in the hallway.

I looked around, inspectating my surroundings. There was an almost empty wardrobe, a nightstand with a candle and a queen sized bed. There wasn't much, but it's not like I'm going to stay here forever.

I walked into the shower, took off my old and greasy clothes before stepping into the shower. I sighed in relief when the hot water touched my skin, and scrubbed myself off quickly before stepping out of the shower, feeling refreshed.

The shirt was way too big for me, making it stop at my knees and I had to fold up the trouser for a few times before it touched my ankles. Walking back into the room, I picked up my belongings before making my way back down again.

Hold on Will, I'm coming.

Walking downstairs, I stopped at the wonderful smell of food. I followed the smell and ended up in the dinning room, where all the boys were sat while waiting till the food was served.

"Hey guys...",
I trailed off, catching everyones attention. 

"I'm going now. I still have to find my brother.",
I looked at them as their calm faces morphed into faces of shock and fear.

"Ehm, Clementine...I think it's better if you stay for the night. Eat a bit and get more sleep before you search for your brother.",
George looked nervous as he tried convincing me.

"No it's fine. I'm not hungry and you've done enough for me.",
I turned around.

"STOP!",
George shouted before he grabbed me by my shoulder.

I looked at him with disgust before shoving his hand off of my shoulder with a little hiss.

"N-No, really, stay here.",
George tried while looking at me desperatly.

"Wh-"

brrr

(stomach go brrrr-)
(sorry)

My stomach made noises of hunger as I looked down with embarrassment. George looked like a huge weigh was thrown off his shoulder before he gave me a smile.

"Look, you're hungry. I mean it; eat something and get some sleep."

I looked at him suspiciously before walking past him, making my way to the table before I sat down next to Dream.

"Hi...",
his calm voice chirped up to my right, making me flinch.

I looked at Dream with a bit of shock before clearing my throat. I'd never seen him from so close up. Well, there wasn't much to see. A few strands of dirty blonde hair stuck out from around the mask which was big enough to cover his eyes and nose, his lips however remained exposed.

"Make a picture, it'll last longer.",
Dream gave me a cocky smirk, making me look down in embarassment.

He let out a low and deep laugh before looking at the food again, making me relax and join him. A hearty smile adorned my face as I looked at my own food.

I took a little bite of the pasta, and my eyes widened.

"Woah this is amazing! Who made this?",
I gawked in amazment as I shoveled the food down my throat  like a maniac.

George chuckled before pointing at himself with his fork smugly.

"This is great.",
I repeated with a childish smile.

He gave me a little thank you before we continued eating. Dream nudged me with his shoulder, looking a bit nervous.

"Soo...what are your hobbies?",
he asked me awkwardly.

"I'm a doctor."

"Oh...cool."

silence

"Uhmm...and you?",
I asked, breaking the tension between us.

"Ehm...I h-hunt.",
he squeaked out nervously.

"Oh, that's cool. I guess."

The whole converstaion was really awkward.
