Broken Into Darkness

Bella! Chapter 3

Raymond was being very nice to me. He held my hair back while I got sick. We left the bathroom to go back to his girlfriend Katie, who is being nice too but too nice. I got a bad vibe from her, but I tolerated her for Raymond cause she is who made him happy. I got up, I need a drink. I definitely need to not be sober here if I am going to watch her and him together.

"Hey, I don't think you need anymore drinks. I think you should stay with me tonight." Raymond said.

I looked at him as if he lost his god damn mind. Did I hear that correctly? I looked over at Katie, she was pissed. So yes I did hear it right. I can understand her being upset with her boyfriend for asking another girl to stay with him. Though she has nothing to worry about, he is a good guy he wouldn't hurt her like that. He is just being nice and probably really worried. Not that I blame him after what he saw me do at the concert trying to kill myself. As much as I wanted to I can't, I have to work in the morning, well shit in a few hours. I need to go find my friends, I lost them after being with Raymond and Katie.

"No, I have to go. I have to work in a few hours."

"It is two thirty in the morning, you should probably get going." Katie stated.

She definitely wants me to leave and not go back to the hotel with them, can't say I blame her. He is a keeper, if he was mine i'd be one lucky girl. She is right though I should get going. I nodded, I turned to leave so I can go find my friends. Out of nowhere Raymond grabbed my arm. I looked at him confused as to why he was doing that.

"Call off, you need to get some rest. Your friends are having a good time. So stay." He pleaded.

Oh damn seeing him pleading sure made me want to stay. I sighed, "I can't. Though do you think I can shower to help sober me up?"

"Okay."

He looked sad, stop it Raymond. I want to hold you and tell you everything will be okay. My heart hurt seeing him looking so sad. So I followed him to his hotel room. Let me tell you he walks fast like Julie. I just think it is because I have short ass legs, so I have to run to keep up with them. He got us a taxi and we got into it. He told the driver what hotel he was staying at which was the Hyatt Place Chicago.

I realized that Katie wasn't with us, where did she go? Did I miss something?

"Where is Katie?" I asked.

"She decided to sleep in the bus."

Oh man was that because of me? I'm not staying so why would she do that? I'm just going to the room to shower. I have to work so I can't stay even though I wanted to.

We pulled up to the hotel, the building was pretty tall with glass windows. When you walk in, it is like almost every hotel. Where you check in at the front desk and chairs are in the lobby with tables and lamps. I followed him to the second floor, his room was two eighteen. When you walk into the room, it is huge. There was a desk that had a compter chair in front of it. Next to the desk is a dresser that held a flat screen tv. This was on the left side of the room. On the right side there was a tan sofa, where it has a wall where if you are with someone and they are in bed sleeping, you can sit on the sofa to watch tv.

I walked into the bathroom, I turned on the shower getting it to how I like the temperature of the water. I took off my clothes then stepped into the shower. Letting the water run down my body relaxing my muscles in my back. After the warm water ran out, I got out wrapping the towl around my body. I seen Raymond had mouth wash, so I rinsed out my mouth. I dryed myself off, and put my clothes back on. I hung the towl I used over the top of the shower curtain and then I walked out of the bathroom feeling alot better.
