The Adventure of My Dreams {Colby Brock}

Seventy One

"Bitch, are you kidding me?!" I asked in shock, grabbing the tests from her hand. They were indeed positive.

"I'm so serious." She said with a chuckle.

"Does Ryan know?" I asked, glancing up at her.

She nodded. "I told him before we came out here. He really did want to come to experience this, but once I told him that I was pregnant, he was even more adamant about being here to keep me safe."

"Awe, I can't believe this. My best friend is having a baby!" I exclaimed with a squeal. I pulled her into a hug and we just laughed. We were so overwhelmed with happiness that we didn't even know how to act.

I put the tests down on the sink and washed my hands.

"Are you positive that you still want to go to this investigation?" I asked. Obviously, I just wanted the best and safest situations for her.

After all, we did fight to get out of a basement before. We had no idea what to expect walking into this hotel.

"I'm sure. Like you said, there's the RV to go to if I need it. If I really need out, we'll just take an Uber back here. I promise I'll be safe." She did her best to convince me, and I accepted it.

"Alright, we'll let's get some sleep. We've got the start of a long week tomorrow. I love you." I said before giving her another hug, and walking out of the bathroom.

I went over to Ryan and gave him a hug. "Congratulations are in order for you too." He gave me a big tight hug. "Thank you, Soph."

I pulled back from the hug and left their room, and made my way up to the top floor where Colby's room is.

"Is she okay?" He asked as soon as I stepped foot in the room. I closed the door behind me. "Yeah, she's fine. Just got a little bun in the oven." I said, pulling the hair tie out of my hair.

"Oh, cool." He said and nodded his head, and his focus went back to his computer. "Wait, what? Angelina is pregnant?" You could tell it took a second for it to register to him.

"I saw the tests with my own eyes, my best friend is having a baby." I sat down on the bed, running my fingers through my hair.

We decided upon going to bed since it was late, and we had to be up early-ish to meet Zak and the rest of the crew down at Cecil. I would be lying if I said it was easy to sleep, because it was far from it.

I started to grow anxious, leaving myself tossing and turning, just staring at the clock as the time passed by minute by minute.

—•—

We woke up around 10:30 in the morning, and to my surprise Colby was already awake. I was surprised with myself that I was even able to get a little bit of sleep.

"How are you feeling?" He asked as I got out of bed. "A little tired, but I'm excited."

"I'm gonna go make sure the guys are up and getting ready, if you want to meet us downstairs when you're done packing your bag." I nodded and he closed the bedroom door behind him.

I went into the bathroom and stripped of my clothes, and took a quick shower. Once I was done, I dried my hair and went back to his room to get dressed.

Since they had a dress code of black, I slipped on a pair of black fishnets to wear under my black skinny jeans that had rips in them, a black tank top, and a crop top hoodie that had a Ouija Board designed on the back of it. I've been dying to wear this to an investigation.

I just grabbed a few solid outfits and some clothes to wear for when we could sleep in the RV. Finally I got some essentials from the bathroom, our chargers, and wrapped my Fanny pack around my waist for my phone, wallet, and Colby's wallet and car keys.

I zipped up the suitcase and wheeled it behind me as I left the room and carried it down the stairs.

"Is everyone almost ready?" I asked as Colby walked into the room. "Just waiting on Corey and Jake.

Colby took the suitcase and brought it outside to load it into the small travel van that they have.

"Let's get going boys, we don't need to keep them waiting!" I yelled out, heading to the kitchen to grab a water bottle and a cereal bar.

"Sorry mom, we're coming!" Corey yelled out causing me to laugh.

"Be safe for me, okay?" Kat said, jutting out her bottom lip as she rested her hands on his shoulders. "I will be, don't you worry." He said before kissing her goodbye.

"Don't worry Kat, I'll make sure he FaceTime's you everyday." I said with a smile. "Thank you!" She said as she skipped back to his bedroom.

Corey wheeled his suitcase from his room and went straight outside to load his suitcase.

"Jake, as excited as you are, how are you taking this long?!" I said with a huff. It's not like Tara was here to distract him. The clock read 11:30.

"We're gonna hit traffic, let's go!" Colby yelled.

Ryan and Angelina went to go wait in the van along with Sam and Corey.

"I have a good reason!" He yelled out as he walked out of his room and closed the door behind him.

"What's that?" I asked.

"Richard Ramirez stayed here and possibly killed while he stayed here. I just recently unboxed some items of his, and I wanted to find them so we had some trigger objects." He said holding up a small duffel bag in his hand.

"That's dope brother." Colby said with a smile. "Let's get going."

Jake nodded and made his way outside to pack his bag in the van. As he did that I got in the passenger seat and Colby got in the drivers seat. Jake closed the back doors of the van and got inside and buckled up.

"Onwards, brother!" Jake exclaimed.

There was no backing out. We were on our way to one of the most notorious places in America.

The Cecil Hotel.
