3rd POV

Colby puts the truck in park and lets out a sigh. He looks over at Sam who still seemed he was in shock. "Do you want to go get food or something? I think there is a Whataburger nearby." Colby asks while about to put the truck in reverse. "No, I am not hungry. I kind of just want to go to the room and look at this footage." Sam said looking over at Colby. Before Colby could say anything, Sam takes his seatbelt off and gets out of the truck. He opens the back door to get the equipment out. Colby just looks ahead and breathes in deeply. He takes his seatbelt off and gets out of the truck. He walks over to Sam to help get the equipment. "Looks like that is everything" Sam said, handing a bag to Colby to carry. He relooked in the back just to make sure. "At least if anyone breaks into the truck, they won't have our equipment" Colby said and chuckles. "Yeah definitely, with our streak of bad luck tonight we don't need our equipment to be stolen as well." Sam shuts the truck door and Colby locks it. They both start walking to the hotel and head up to the room.

As they enter the hotel room, Colby and Sam throw the bags down onto the bed. Without even a second breathe Sam grabs the computer bag and starts setting up the camera to review the footage. Colby looks over at Sam and grabs his bag off the floor. "I am going to take a shower real quick" Colby said while digging into his bag for clothes and slightly glancing over at Sam. Sam did not pay any attention to Colby and kept looking at the computer. "Sam!" Colby said a little louder to try to get Sam's attention and to make sure he heard him. "Yeah okay, have fun." Sam waved his hand behind him, gesturing Colby to go ahead and go while still glaring at the computer. Colby looks down and starts walking over to the bathroom before looking at same again. He goes into the bathroom and shuts the door.

Sam's POV

I heard the bathroom door shut and finally realized what Colby just said. I looked behind me and saw he was already in the shower. I feel bad because I cannot help but to think I am ignoring him. I have just been going through a lot with the channel and Kat. Nothing is bad with her. We both are just really busy right now and focusing on our careers. At least I got me a goal-oriented lady.

I put the SD card into the thumb drive that was attached to the computer. I scroll across the screen that is a picture of Colby and I from when we had our last house party in Los Angeles. I go to the folder section to retrieve the recent videos. My heart skips a beat when I pull up all the videos and start to scroll down to find the most recent one. I see it. I take a deep breathe and click on the video.

I watch it, I feel disconnected from this experience, like I am not watching myself, but instead someone else. "You are not allowed to follow Sam or touch him you hear me?!" I heard Colby's voice come through the computer speaker. I get chills from hearing how serious his voice got. He did not sound scared given the situation. But instead he sounded territorial, if that makes any sense. I brush that idea off when I see myself fall over on camera. I jump at the sight of it, remembering how it felt to be touched and pulled. My eyes begin to water, not from being sad or scared, but overwhelmed with what I just witnessed again. I lean back in the chair and look up at the ceiling just trying to process what happened and what to do now. "chshchshsh" a little bit of static came through the video. "What was that?" I look down at the video to see Colby packing up the equipment and me just standing their terrified. I rewind the video and put my headphones in to hear the sound better. I turn up the volume and play it again "......see.....you...soon.." I immediately threw my headphones off and shut the laptop. "What the f*ck was that?" I begin to cry. 'I don't know if something is coming after me. Or if something already attached itself to me. I can't tell Colby though. He will be worried and freak out. He already had to deal with this scenario today, I don't want to make it worse.' I wipe my eyes and get up from the chair. I get in bed and bring my knees to my chest and lay my head down. I can't help but to overthink.
