I wake up to a cold eerie feeling surrounding me, I check the time 2:40 am.

where's Alessio?

I get off the bed and walk to the door, why the fuck is it so cold

when I open the door it's completely its dark not a sound can be heard not even a soul in sight.

what's going on

my flight or fight mode immediately turns on and I step lightly

don't make a sound

I can hear faint footsteps in the distance but I keep tract of my surroundings as I peak around the corner to find a hooded figure in all black looking into the house, I can't exactly see their face but I can tell its a woman, blonde hair and pale skin, nothing more as its dark and their very cautious with how they move

I decide to go onto the balcony to get a closer look but I can sense someone behind me, I immediately turn around ready to hit whoever I have to hit but my hands are grabbed mid action "shh, it's me" Alessio whispers "what the fuck is going on" I say softly not wanting to alert anyone.

"that's what I asked myself, I'm still trying to figure it out" he tells me "how long were you out here?" I ask "about an hour" he says looking out the window on the staircase "and how long has this person been there?"

"about an hour" he says looking at me "do you recognize them?" I ask trying to figure who this mysterious person is "their hair and skin do bring up some ideas on who they may be but otherwise no.." he trails off "come on let's go back to sleep, we'll talk to my dad and figure it out tomorrow" he says and takes my hand to walk back upstairs but I pull away my hand "love, don't be stubborn now" he groans "no, I want to know who does it remind you of" I ask folding my hand

"we will talk about it tomorrow" he says and takes my hand once again "why talk about it tomorrow when we can already begin to figure out who is it, get to the bottom of it" I say twisting my face "Eloise can we do this tomorrow, I will tell you all you need to know but lets go get some rest now" he sighs "your hiding something..." I narrow my eyes at him "I'm not my love" he says in a sadden tone

"what is it..." I ask softly "do you know them?" I question but he just looks away "Alessio" I call out sternly

no response, he doesn't even look at me...

"fine..if you don't want to say it no problem" I say and walk off "my love" he calls out but I ignore him and go back to the room.

its been a while since I've came into the room, I haven't slept since..my mind is like its running a marathon.

I can't be upset...it'd be wrong to be cause he's done nothing been good to me..if anything, I'm the one hiding something from him..but what would happen if he found out..would he be upset I lied and didn't tell him. Or just..doesn't wanna be with me anymore..
