Eliza wakes up in your bed, tucked in tight. She places a hand on her forehead as she sits up and looks around.

"Wh-where am I?" She asks, not exactly remembering anything. She grabs her phone which is placed on the dresser next to her.

She unlocks it and finds several missed calls and text messages from her sister Angelica.

"Jeez Angie, give me a break once in a while." She groans as she dials her sisters number.

"Hey sis."

"Eliza! Thank goodness you're alright! I got worried sick when I heard that your ride broke down! I tried calling you to see it you were okay but you never answered! What happened? Where are you?" Angelica asks in a state of slight worry.

"I...........I'm not sure. I just woke up in a room in a bed. But I'm not sure who's house I'm in." Eliza states confused.

"Hang on sis, I'm gonna see who's house I'm at, I'll be right back."

"Okay. But stay on the line in case something happens alright?"

"Alright, alright"

Eliza gets up from the bed, and walks out of the room. She sees Y/N on the couch asleep. For a second, she stands there dumbfounded, but then she remembers. You let her crash in your house.

She smiles as she walks back into the bedroom and picks the phone back up.

"I'm at Y/N's house."

"Ooooooooh! Lucky! How'd that happen?"

Eliza stays silent for a moment and smiles.

"I came to her house since it was the closest person I could reach. She let me come in and she gave me warm clothes and a blanket. We stayed up watching movies and eventually I fell asleep, so she tucked me in her bed and she fell asleep on the couch."

Eliza couldn't see it, but on Angelica's side, she was smiling ear to ear. She was so happy to hear her sister had moved on and found someone else. She was screaming happily on the inside.

"Ooohoooohoooo! How is Y/N so kind though? That's my question."

"I don't know.........but I'm happy that she's not like Alexander."

"You and me both."

With that, the two sisters laughed.

After a while, Eliza hung up and walked back out of the room, dressed in her own clothes and wearing a thicker jacket that Y/N had hung up for her.

By now, Y/N was awake.

"Hey Elizabeth. Whatcha doin?" You ask smiling.

"I'm heading out to get to Angelica's."

There's a split second of silence.

"Already? Are you sure you don't want to stay until the storm clears up? You could get seriously hurt out there." Y/N states concerned.

"I'm sorry that I can't stay longer, but I have to get to Angelica's." She confirms opening the front door.

"Well, if you insist. But if you need anything, just call and I'll be here." Y/N assures Eliza.

"Okay, I will. Thank you so much Y/N."

"No problem."

With that, Eliza begins walking out into the storm.

Within an hour, she's lost in the snow.

The mountains of white fluffy snow were not making it easier for Eliza to see where she was headed. She would've tried to head back to Y/N's house, but she didn't even have a clue as to where that was.

With no clue of any of her surroundings, she didn't see the car speeding in her direction, and the driver of the vehicle couldn't see Eliza in the pathway.

When the vehicle approached, Eliza turned around and her eyes widened in shock.

After that, she couldn't see anything but total darkness.
