"Everett lang" could be heard as the officer that had currently been up in auroras business a few minutes ago calls out Everett's name.

"Your up, let's go!" continued officer Miller as he looked directly at Everett.

Harlan looks at Aurora as she makes her way back towards them, he instantly notices the tears streaks on her cheeks and wordlessly pulls her into a warm embrace. "I'm here if you want to talk about it" he whispers into her hair as she hold him tighter.

He kisses the crown of her head as the rest of them are lead into separate rooms for interrogation.

As everyone sat in a room each by themselves, Aurora started fidgeting as she could feel millers intense stare but tried to ignore it as fear prickled beneath her skin. She refused to let her self feel that vulnerable again as she took a deep breath and shook her nerves out and looked directly into millers eyes. Challenging him, testing him to see if he would do anything.

Aurora then chooses to focus her hearing on the conversation happening a few doors down.

She hears what she thinks might be a white noise machine when a voice can be heard, "It's a white noise machine, to keep the distractions out" a voice Aurora recognises as officer blondie or more commonly know as Kristin Ramsey.

"I know my therapist uses one" she hears Everett say as she notices he sounds super anxious

"Mine too" Ramsey replied while looking directly at Everett noticing his anxiousness. "Everett your friend Connor is missing" Ramsey continued.

Aurora jumped slightly as a Loud bang sound could be heard, almost like something hitting a desk.

"It ah looks like he pulled his leg right out of this cast which I imagine was not easy to do, must have been in quite a hurry" Ramsey continued as she watched Everett's body movements and the way he seemed to get more and more anxious as the conversation continued.

Everett's breathing started to pick up

"What do you mean missing?" Everett  asked confused but also very concerned for the well-being of his friend.

"No one can seem to find him and he's not answering his phone" Ramsey said

"In other words, missing" Jang interrupted

"His parents are understandably concerned they have no idea why he would just leave the hospital like that" Ramsey continued as if Jang didn't say anything

"Yeah kinda like what you did the other night" Jang interrupted again

"Jason shut the fuck up, Jesus is it that hard to keep your big mouth shut" Aurora whispered as she heard Jang start talking once again.

In the room next door to auroras Harlan's head peaks up as he hears auroras voice confused on how she is able to hear the conversation going on in Everett's room and then quickly remembers her saying that her kind have incredible hearing like him but also have other heightened senses.

Laughing to himself once he registered what she had said he focuses his attention back to the conversation happening in the room next to his

"Do you think Connor had anything to do with the fire?" Ramsey questioned once again trying to focus on Everett's body movements to try and catch it if he gave anything away.
