His unhealthy obsession. (Rafe Adler)

1.Starting all over again

It was another typical, boring Sunday night. You looked at the clock right in front of you. "Shit, I fell asleep." You murmured to yourself as you tried to pick up the remote to turn off the TV. "How long have I been sleeping for..." Trying to get up from the couch, you quickly stretched over so your back wouldn't hurt later. 

Little drops of water could be seen through the clean living room window. It had been a while since it last rained, you thought to yourself. Stretching once again, you went over to the window. "This is the only interesting thing that has happened since, uh...Oh, yeah s-" Before finishing your sentence, the phone starts making a loud, annoying and vibrating sound.

"Who is calling at this hour..." You groaned, walking up to the phone. "I swear If it's another person trying to sell me something, I'll..." You stopped talking once again when you saw the name "Nathan" shining brightly on the phone screen. Why was he calling at this hour anyways, maybe he didn't mean to call me, yeah, he probably misclicked or something...right? 

Gathering your thoughts, you picked up the call, and before saying anything, Nathan interrupted any "greeting" introductions. 

"Y/n, Hey! Uh...So-" As Nathan was trying to form a coherent sentence, you were just there, shocked, not knowing what to say. "Look, I know it's late, and I might just have woken you up, but before saying anything, I..." You could hear him sigh, it even looked like he was out of breath. "Hey, uh...Don't try to freak out, but..." What is he talking about, I'm so confused, is he drunk or something?

"Sam is alive."

At that very moment, you could feel everything around you stop. Not even the faint sound of rain could be heard, nor the rustling of the wind, or the crack of the wooden floor beneath your feet. Everything was quiet, silent.

You couldn't even notice Nathan was still trying to contact you through the phone, asking now and then If you were there, and If you heard him. That's when you took a deep breath and replied softly. "Nate, what are you talking about..." Your voice was shaky, after all, why wouldn't it be?  You didn't get to speak to Nathan again after two long years, and suddenly you receive a call from him at this hour telling you that Sam was alive? Impossible.

You could hear a soft chuckle from Nathan. "Y/n, I thought you passed out on me. I know it's really difficult to understand what's happening, and I'll promise I'll explain everything later, but.." Yeah, please do explain, I'm lost here. "We need your help." Raising your eyebrow, you quickly replied. "Help with what, Nate? You know I'm...retired." You suddenly heard another laugh coming from the other line, but, it didn't sound like Nathan.  "I know, I was too! But this is very important, Sam needs our help. After all, you're one of the best treasure hunters ever, well, that's after Sam and me, of course." You frowned quickly as you heard the same laugh again.

You sat on the couch quickly. "Fine, I'll help you with whatever you need. But I need details and a full explanation of everything that's happening, thank you." After a quick second, you heard Nathan argue, knowing someone was trying to take the phone from his hand, successfully doing it.

"Hey, princess. I'll explain everything in just a second. Just start packing up because we are going to Italy. Be well prepared, it's gonna be a bumpy ride." Your lips parted slightly. "Oh, yeah...I'm sure it will, Sam..." That's all you said before hanging up.

Getting up from the couch and running upstairs to your room, you quickly got your luggage, placing it on the bed as you started packing up all the necessary stuff for this...Adventure. 

Looking out the window again, you saw the start of a brand new day. The sunrise was beautiful.  "Well, time to start all over again, huh..." You sighed as you looked at the phone once again, not after continuing to pack the rest of your items.
