Holly's P.O.V.

I opened my eyes sluggishly with a slight groan. My head was aching and I was on a cot in a strange looking room.

"Jesus christ.." I said in a hushed voice, I got up and sat at the edge of the cot. My vision was blurry and when I looked down I saw five beer bottles near my feet. I had a hangover I had decided. I couldn't remember a thing, where was I? I looked at my IPhone, it was 4:00 a.m.

I looked across the room and saw someone laying on a separate cot, holding a bottle of red wine. I got out of my cot slowly and picked up the beer bottles, trying not to awaken whoever was there. The bottles clinked together slightly and I inhaled a sharp breath. The person stirred slightly but didn't awaken. I slowly put the bottles in the recycling bin across the room.

There was a loud clank, as the person dropped the wine bottle, from their sleep. They jerked awake, I started to panick, not knowing who was in this room with me. They turned over and looked under their cot, to find the wine bottle. The person grabbed their head and swore.

As my eyes started adjusting better to the darkness, I could see their face. It was Hannibal Lecter. I jerked back against the wall, hard getting my breath knocked out of me. I gasped loudly trying to get my breath back. Hannibal turned his head towards me, immediately alert.

I got on all fours and tried sneaking back over to my cot. Once again, karma struck me as another beer bottle rolled across the room as my knee hit it. Hannibal turned a nightstand lamp on. He looked over at me. My whole face turned red, I was still on all fours halfway to my cot.

"What are you doing?" He shook his head slightly.

"Trying to get back to my cot without waking you up." My voice was shaky. I grabbed my head again, I needed medicine.

I got back up on two feet and looked around for a medicine cabinet. I found one in the small bathroom of this strange room. I started to recognise it. This was the back to the interrogation room. It had a small bathroom, kitchen bedroom/living/dining room Connected to eachother. I grabbed PainKillers and some Motrin, along with two glasses of water. I went into the bedroom/living room.

"Here's some Motrin and PainKillers for your headache or any other pains you have and a glass of water." I handed him the supplies. I took PainKillers because my arm hurt like hell, along with the palms of my hands. I rolled the sleeves to my shirt up. My mouth hung open wide at what I saw. Hannibal looked over at me, curious as to what I was staring at.

There was the letter 'H' on my left hand, bleeding and an 'L' on my right hand, also bleeding. Then, my arm was bruised with what looked like a possible bite mark.

Hannibal walked over to me and took a look, too. He looked surprised.

"What the FUCK happened last night, Lecter?!" I glared up at him.

"Most I do not remember, BUT I do remember that you got REALLY drunk, I was getting there. I decided that if your boss sees my initials on your hands, he'd back away. I guess the bite mark was kinda... Me trying to eat you." I gave him the most unamused look ever. I cocked a brow.

"How exactly am I supposed to explain this, everyone knows I stayed the night here." I gulped down my PainKillers, Motrin and Vyvance.

"What's the Vyvance for, Holly?" Hannibal asked.

"ADHD, why?"

"At this Age? You'd think you would've gotten over that problem once you turned 17."
