When we made it to Mason's house the sun had already went down. As soon as we were inside, I remembered about Lily. "Mason, when's Lily coming home?" I asked kind of worried because it was getting late. I hope she's okay. "She's staying over at her friend's house," he said as he walked into the kitchen. Oh, I hope she stays safe. "You hungry?" He asked sticking his head back through the doorway. "Yeah," I smiled and followed him into the kitchen. I seem to always be hungry, maybe I should slow it down a bit.

"How about we order a pizza?" He suggested while sitting at the table. "Sounds great," I sat across from him and watched him as he dialed the number of the pizza shop in town. He doesn't know it but pizza is my absolute favorite food. That's basic, I know, but it's so good. He kept his eyes on me the whole time he was on the phone. "It'll be about twenty minutes," he said sitting his phone back down. I nodded at him and stood up with my bag, "Do you mind if I take a quick shower?" He nodded his head, telling me to go ahead so I walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs toward Mason's room. 

When I got in there I sat down my bag and headed for the shower. A hot shower sounds great right now. I quickly turned the water on so it would heat up and got undressed. When I stepped in I relaxed against the hot water that was pouring over me. I forgot to get shampoo and everything. Maybe I could use his? Grabbing Mason's shampoo I washed my hair and used his body wash to clean myself up. This stuff smells so good. Trying to hurry I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around me. It's so cold, I need to hurry and get dressed.

I walked into the bedroom and grabbed one of Mason's shirts out of his dresser. I really hope he doesn't mind but they seem to be really comforting for me. Slipping it on with some underwear, I went to my bag and grabbed my leggings out. Just as I finished pulling them up, Mason walked into the room holding a box of pizza and a couple of drinks. Oooh come to mama! I grabbed the drinks from him so he could set the pizza down. It smells so good, I'm super excited to taste it. After setting the drinks on the nightstand, I shut the door and turned around to sit on the bed. 

Mason was already laying down with a piece of pizza in one hand and the remote to the t.v. in the other. "Did you grab some napkins?" I ask before I sat down. "No, I forgot. I'll go get some," he said as he started to sit up. "It's fine, I'll grab some," I walked out of the bedroom door and down the stairs. I felt my heart race when I saw that all of the lights downstairs were turned off. Oh no, it's so dark. I can't see anything down there! I thought about turning around and asking Mason to get the napkins but I didn't want him to ask why, so I kept going. I'm a big girl, I can do this!

When I was at the bottom of the stairs I quickly ran to the light switch in the hallway and flipped it up. Light filled the small hall and I felt relieved seeing that I was alone. See! I said I could and I am. I slowly walked down the hall and towards the kitchen flipping on the light as I walked around the corner. I quickly walked over to the counter next to the refrigerator and grabbed a few napkins, quickly turning around to walk back upstairs. I froze when I saw that the hallway light was turned out and I could feel my heartbeat pick up again. 

Why is that light out? I just turned it on. I slowly walked toward the doorway of the kitchen and carefully looked around the corner, into the hall. I don't want to yell for Mason, I don't know what exactly is happening. I couldn't hear anything or see anything so I started to make my way toward the light switch again. I lifted my hand up to flip it back up but stopped when I heard something that sounded like walking. Oh no! Bad idea, I repeat, bad idea. I knew I should've had Mason come get them. Now I'm going to die all because I wanted to be brave so my mate wouldn't think I wasn't.

"BOO!" I jumped up, screaming and quickly turned around to come face to face with a laughing Mason. What is he doing?! "Mason! Why would you do that??" I was shaking from being scared and he was just standing there bent over from laughing so hard. "I'm sorry, Sweetheart, but that was just great!" He could hardly talk because he was busy laughing. I don't see why this is funny. I almost died! "You should've seen your face! When I heard your heart beat pick up while you were on the stairs and then you running to the light switch, I couldn't resist," He finally calmed down enough to look at me. Right, enhanced hearing.

I was still shaking and he noticed so he hugged me to him. "Aw, my poor baby got scared?" Looking up at him, I tried my best to frown but it kept turning into a smile. "Oh yeah? Well at least I'm not afraid spiders!" I smirked at him as he looked at me wide-eyed. "I'm not afraid of them. I just don't want them anywhere near me," he mumbled, not looking at my face. Whatever he says. "Our pizza's going to get cold if we don't hurry up," he said trying to change the subject. "Oh alright, c'mon," I said turning around and walking up the stairs. 

When we got back into the room, I laid down on the bed with Mason, putting the pizza box between us. He grabbed the remote and pressed play causing Supernatural to start playing. A couple pieces of pizza later and I was almost asleep as I laid under the covers quietly laughing at something Crowley said to Dean.
