Ember's pov :After Alex explains everything I take a look at every corner of the room for any creepy things. I definitely don't like this place it scares me. It is really clean unlike outside which is very haunted and creepy. Is it like this everywhere? I hope not. I take a look at the bathroom and it is fine. I sit down on the single beds joined together. This is so comfy. Mmm......so I shouldn't have judged this place. But still it is scary. Alex comes out of the bathroom and says "it looks fine but the good it looks the bad it is"
"Yea it looks good. By the way, what clothes do we wear?"
"Yea about that, we need to go shopping. We can't wear clothes the same clothes. Also I didn't bring any clothes here because they don't like the barcode thing on it. It's offensive here. And since all out clothes have them on it I decided we buy it here"
"I see. But Shopping? Are there any shops here by chance?"
"Yea it is like any other town but it is dangerous and a lot of things are unknown"
"Hmm.....how did you track the number though?"
"I've been doing that since long and when I saw that picture at the main everything made sense"
"Huh? What are you saying? What made sense? "
"It's better you don't know about it"
"Why can I not know about it? Tell me. Now"
"Drop it ember"
"No Alex tell me. I need to know"
"Drop it already"
"Why can I not know? Tell me! Why am I alw-" he silences me with his palm. I guess I was yelling.
"Because of your yelling we could get into trouble. Just hold in. When I say you don't have to know then you need to shut up. It could get us into trouble"
"Fine"
I fall back on the bed.
Until we get out I get to be his girlfriend. Its going to be hard for me. Hope all this comes to an end very soon. Alex lays down beside me. My eyes widen"Woah! Alex! What are you doing?"
"What am I doing? Can't you see?"
"We can't sleep in the same bed"
"Gosh is this a big deal. We have to. You know whatever I said and you still act like this"
"Oh sorry okay I have to act like
your girlfriend, I understand""Girlfriend?" He laughs slightly and a small smirk appears on his face. "I never told you to be my girlfriend. When did all this happen?" He laughs
"What? You said it. You told me to act like one"
"Yea I told you to act like one not label it"
I put my head down and my cheeks turn pink. I turn around from the embarrassment. Look at me! I'm a nervous wreck. I stare at the picture on the wall. I'm doing this on purpose until the red on my cheeks disappears. If he gets to know I'm red he will smirk like a donkey.
"Did you tell the professor we are here?""Yea"
"You did? What did he say?"
"I told him that we are tracking a number who has been bothering us since a long time so we need to locate where it is. And he said okay"
"I'm surprised he didn't say anything"
"Yea we have holidays for 10 days which starts next week so I guess he's fine with it"
