"Where are you, Drea? I'm not gonna hurt you." Antonio sang in an amused voice. Shivers started to run down my spine as a single tear escaped my eyes.
--------------------------
Drea Ricci has met many monsters in her life. But the biggest monster...
And now here I was. In a situation I couldn't tell was normal or weird.
A young couple that looks a little too nice begging to take me to a place to stay and questioning me a little too much.
"Let us take you to the motel you're staying at. You don't look well." The man said.
The woman grabs her husband's hand and they walk towards their car beckoning me to follow.
"Do you know the address?" His wife added.
I couldn't tell if my distrust for them was based on what just took place not even an hour ago or if I was just anxious but I was too exhausted to allow my worry to impact my decision.
Too tired to protest I accept their offer.
"I'll give you the directions."

After the couple dropped me off at my hotel I ignored the old couple and a few other residents at the motel and their curious eyes and ran to my room.
The second I stepped inside I collapsed on my bed. The exhaustion that crippled my body was like no other and in any second sleep would consume me entirely.
I was too sleepy to acknowledge the many slip-ups I had with the suspicious couple and could only think about the deep sleep I was itching to have.
Within minutes of wrapping the thin comforter around my body, I began to drift off to the depths of my mind.
......
My body awakened with a jolt when I heard the commotion outside of my door.
"She is in there sir. We have taken great care of her." I heard the old man's voice echo in the dark hall.
It was still dark out so it must have been very early in the morning. My room felt cooler than usual and the energy felt different than it was before I fell into a deep slumber.
Who could possibly be here to see me this early in the morning? And why the hell is Donald even letting them in? It's not right to just let anyone into my room unless they have asked for my consent.
I have no idea who it could possibly be. It is definitely not Kit he would break in through the window and I'm sure I would wake up with a hatchet lunged deep in my abdomen. Plus he shouldn't know I was here I never specified where I was staying.
The owner said "Sir" so it also cannot be the couple that dropped me off.
Donald uttered a few more words in a hushed tone before it went completely silent. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
