Chapter Eleven
Aryas POV

Rio pulls out SUV into the motel parking lot and we unload groceries. We only bought the necessities for the next day or two, then we'll need to re-stock on supplies. I sort the bags of food into two bags, one will go to the boys room and the other is for us. Rio takes ours and leaves me to deliver the food to the guys.

I take the bag full of bread, lunch meat and a jar of pickles, stuff to make sandwiches with, and close the trunk of the car. I bounce up the steps leading to the room that Danile and Darius share and knock on the door.

Shuffling can be heard and light conversation as foot steps lead up to the door. It opens and Danlie's tired eyes greet me. I keep my face expressionless, obviously not wanting to be here.

His eyes light up when he notices me and I refrain from rolling my eyes. He's shirtless and looks like he just got ready for bed. I swallow and hand him the bag without breaking eye contact. "This is your food for the next couple of days."

He takes it and looks in at the contents. "This isn't very much." He looks back up at me.

"Well if it doesn't fit your taste then you can get your own food." I shoot back and turn to leave. I hear him shuffle and catch my hand as I try to walk away and he steps out and lets the door shut him out.

"I didn't mean it like that, I'm sorry." His voice is deep and sincere and I have to recheck myself. I find myself almost wanting to trust him.

I jerk my hand away and meet his eyes again. His face looks sorry and I almost don't wanna snap back at him again. "It's fine." I mumbled and looked at the crack in the wall off the left. Without another word, I turn and walk quickly back to my room.

Before I get into the room I pound the door in frustration and open it. Rio who is inside laying in the bed staring down and the burner phone in her hand looks at me.

"Dang girl chill!" I chuckles, "you're gonna break a hole in the door and we don't have the money to pay for that kinda crap." She looks down at her phone.

"Shut up" I growl at her and get undressed in only my underwear and climb into bed as quickly as I can. I turn the lights off and fall asleep as quickly as possible.

That night...

I wake up in the bed of the motel room. I look around and rio is sound asleep in the bed next to me i sigh with relief and put on shorts and i loose T shirt. I lift my hair off the nape of my neck and that was stuck there by a cold sweat.

All of the sudden I feel very hot, like my room just rose in temperature by fifteen degrees. I start to sweat more and I feel the sensation of not being able to breathe.

I open the door and the cold night air greets me and I take a deep breath and it refreshes my lungs. I step out and my bare feet pad the cold concrete walkway balcony. I look up to the sky and it is blue with a full moon illuminating everything.

I look to my left and I see Daniel leaning on the railing. He hasn't noticed me yet and I feel a mixed feeling stir up inside of my chest. Before my brain could give the command my legs divided to move closer.

We creeped down the rail silently and without looking away from the moon he acknowledges me.

"Good evening babe." He says in a low voice. He stands up off the tail and stands over me. "I was wondering when you were gonna wake up." Without an explanation or another work he slides his hands around me at my waist and pulls me to him. He stoops down and kisses me tenderly.

I forget about everything. The strange situation I'm in that I want an explanation for is gone. All I could focus on was his kiss. He was so gentle with me and held me like a fragile vase that could shatter at one wrong touch. The kiss was gentle and friendly and warm. Captivating.

He pull his lips away slowly and rests his forehead on mine keeping his eyes closed savoring the experience like it may never come agin.

"I say..." he whispers, "that one has got to be the best one yet." He chuckles. He nuzzled my nose and his bright blue eyes stared into mine. "Arya.... I think I-"

A gunshot goes off and Daniels eyes roll into the back of his head. He started to fall and collapsed on top of me. I try my best to hold him up but I drop to my knees fumbling over his weight. I hold his head and roll him over o to his back.

"Oh no, oh no, oh no no no no no!" I scream. "Daniel!"

A chuckle burns from a figure in front of me. My tear stained face shoots up to see the killer's face. I hold Daniles cold dead face in my hand. The killer removes the black mask and seals his face and recalls the one which is my fathers.

His laughter drills my ears and I scream.

"Well hello there pumpkin." He billows "did you miss me?" He murmurs.

I shriek as he takes a step for me then another. I flop back and scoot away but I'm so frozen I'm shocked, I can't move. He lunches for me and I shriek my rage in terror and scream echoes of into black ness.
