I'm Coming

Chapter 5

<Lyla> POV

I woke up and looked over at my phone it says 5:15... I didn't get a lot of sleep I know that.

"Hey hey" I whisper towards Jeffrey.

He didn't answer so I left him alone. I got up and went to the bathroom grabbing my toothbrush and brush on the way. I brushed my hair and teeth then went to put on some perfume.

Knock Knock Knock

"House keeping" A lady outside of the hotel door says.

I run back into the bathroom and lock the door.

"Ill come back later" She said.

I walked out and saw Jeffrey waking up.

"Goodmorning Lyla" Jeffrey said.

"I never thought I would hear Jeffrey Eli Miller say that to me. Goodmorning to you also" I said.

"Well I think im going to get up and see if my moms here" He said.

"What if she doesn't want me here" I said.

"I don't know to be honest" He said.

"Just let me go see" He said.

Jeffrey walked out of the room. I went to grab my Sketch Book and started to draw a picture of Jeffrey like always.

"Look mom she needs help" I heard Jeffrey say.

"Oh Jeffrey what if shes a creepy stalker" His mom said.

They were right out the door talking. I heard a bang and saw the door swing open. I dropped my drawing and ran to the bathroom to lock myself in.

"Did she just run to the bathroom?" Jeffrey's mom asked a little confused.

"Yes shes just scared" Jeffrey said.

"Come on out Lyla its okay" Jeffrey said knocking on the bathroom door.

I slowly unlocked the door and walked out. I still had on the clothes from last night and so did Jeffrey.

"Hello... Lyla?" Jeffrey's mom said.

She had dirty blond hair and was medium sized but skinny.

"Hi.." I said.

"So Jeffrey told me you don't have a way home and you don't have enough money to buy tickets" She said.

"Yes mam" I said.

"Well.." She said.

"She needs our help mom" Jeffrey pleaded.

"Well I cant leave a little girl in the middle of nowhere far away from home can I" She said.

I smiled a little before looking at her.

"You can stay... but we aren't leaving for a few days have you talked to your parents?" She asked.

"Yes Jeffrey told me to already" I said.

I looked over and saw Jeffrey inching his way over to my Sketch Book laying down on the bed. I ran and snatched it up before he had a chance to look at my new picture.

"Ehh its not done!" I said.

"Darn can you at least show my mom a picture that's already done" Jeffrey asked.

I hesitated for a moment but then nodded. I dug through my book a second then held out one of Jeffrey giving me a kiss on the cheek.

"Oh my that's good" She said.
