Song: Wake Me Up When September Ends by Green Day 

The door never opened. We stood there like lemons waiting for one answer but there never was one. Either, there was nobody renting the room out or the people just decided to ignore us. I look over to Sebastian and saw the fear in his eyes. “What’s the matter?” I ask and kneel down to him.

He shook his head to be rid of whatever thoughts may be haunting him. “I’m scared.” He simply said. I was confused and gave him a small reassuring hug.

“Scared of what?” I say and pull away after he made no attempt to hug back.

“David isn’t stupid. There must be a reason he left the door unlocked. I think he’s testing us.” Sebastian said with a shaky voice. “He could be around the corner now with a gun in hand ready to shoot us.” My head self-consciously looked around the hallway.

“You have a point,” I say and take his  hand, moving him closer back to the hotel room we’re staying in. I groan in frustration. “But what if he’s not? We might have a chance to be free if we go!” I say.

“I’m sorry I don’t know! It’s a 50 – 50 chance. If he’s not there, then we need a plan. If he is there, we’ll just go back to our rubbish lives!” Sebastian shocked me.

“Since when did you get so mature?” I grinned down to him. He rolled his eyes and poked his tongue out at me.

“Since when did life become so complicated?” He shot back. I laugh and shake my head.

“That’s what I’d like to know,” I chuckled. “How about, I go look around the corner and see if there’s anybody there? You can just stay here, but in my sight.” He nods and lets go of my hand. I cautiously and slowly walk up to the end of the hallway. The floor creaked beneath my weight and my bare feet rubbed against the varnished wooden floor.

I rounded the corner and saw nobody there. I look back to see Sebastian gone. Shit! “Sebastian?!” I yell and run over to where I left him. “Sebastian?! Where are you?!” my voice shook with panic. I couldn’t see him anywhere. I should’ve listened to him!

“Sebastian where are you?! Make a noise or something! Anything!” Tears ran down my face. The throbbing in my head was back. And it was as painful as ever. I groan and hold my head, stopping the search for Sebastian.

“Make it stop, please!” I yell and cry harder. I fall to the floor and curl into a ball. “Please, please, please make it stop.” I whisper in defeat. I felt hands picking me up and taking me somewhere. I didn’t know who it was or where I was going, all I know is that these hands don’t feel like Dads. It was a completely different person.

It was a man though, from what I could tell. But I kept my eyes closed as I didn’t want to be judged for staring at someone.

I felt us going down some stairs and around corners until I heard a door open and felt the warm wind rush over me. I shivered at its force and tried to curl into a ball harder. I heard an engine start up and I was placed inside a van or car.

My mind was left blank and memories over took me. This time, they were messed around with. Each memory had its own twist. I ended up dead in each one somehow. Or somebody I love were killed in my bare hands.

It’s just an illusion, just an illusion. I chanted in my head over and over again. Then everything went silent.

There was nothing but the humming of the engine. I open up my eyes, scared of what might be leering away in the scene. I’m in a van, again. What is it with people and putting me in vans? The place is dark but it smells nice, like daisies I think.
