《Hailey's pov》
[Italics- thoughts]

Continuing off from the party.

I should get out of this party, quick!

I get up and look around thinking if I should tell any of them about this.

Nah, they'd think it's crazy and tell me not to be delusional, I'll just go on my own.

I come out of the hotel and go down the staircase to the side walk as I stare at the number on my phone.

What do I do? What do I do?

I ramble to myself confused, excited and nervous all at once.

I wanna track this number, but how?
I look around as I see a group of guys walk past me, into the hotel.

Their conversation catches my attention as I hear one of them say,

"Man, Jake was just absolutely insane today!"

"You got that right jeez, that psycho has some, no a lot of issues", another guy says.

"His glare really did send chills down my spine though, I think we shouldn't mess with him", a third one coughs.

"Right? He was like don't even play this game with me, what does that even mean", a guy said doing air quotes with his fingers.

Their auras seemed quite intriguing but they seem to be talking about a 'Jake', and I can't help but wonder...

I am afraid to approach them but, what if they really do know him??
I can't miss this opportunity.

I take a deep breath in and out as I walk towards them right as they were about to enter the hotel.

"Uh, excuse me?", I try to get their attention.

But I probably said it way too low so they didn't hear me and went inside.

Great start Hailey, I've got to be more loud and bold.

I go inside the hotel and see them walking towards the party hall and I scurry over to them.

"Excuse me, guys?", I say loud enough for them to hear.

They all turn around and have confused looks on their faces.

"Uh, I didn't mean to overhear your conversation, but I couldn't help but notice you were talking about someone called Jake?", I ask.

They get even more confused and turn to one another and shrug.

Then one guy says,

"Why do you ask?", as he takes a step forward and raises his eyebrow.

"U-uh, none of your business", I say.

"Well then, we can't help you since it's none of our business", another guy says sarcastically as he walks towards me, shrugging.

Everyone then come a bit closer and some guy comes and stands in front of me, inspecting me.

What a bunch of creepy weirdos!

"Hey! keep the distance and back off you all", I say crossing my hands and back away, glaring at them.

"Ohho you're a feisty one eh? We all like a little challenge", some guy smirks.

I wanted to smack that smirk right off his face! Who the heck did these people think they were?? Ugh!

"Who the heck do you think you are? A man child who thinks that he owns all women and think they're challenges for him to win?", I say raising my voice, rolling my eyes and gritting my teeth.
