Sleeping with the Dead

It was late.
We were drunk.
We were at a party.
It got out of hand.
I was gonna leave but she was so beautiful she made me stay.
Her golden locks sat perfectly on her shoulders.
Her dress was silver that glimmered in the clubs spotlights.
Her dress hugged her just like I did with my arms around her waist while we were swaying to random song nobody knew.
We started talking to get to know each other early on.
We were young and just having some fun.
We got to do some dancing and a couple more drinks.
We finally managed to drag ourselves away from the dance floor where we got even more drinks.
I asked her to come back to my place.
She nodded with a cute little smirk on her face.
I opened my hotel room and let her in.
I shut the door and turned around to find her sitting on the edge of her bed taking her clothes off.
I was tired so told her I couldn't do it.
She wouldn't take no for an answer.
We got into bed and cuddled.
That's all we did.
Or all I could remember anyway.
I woke up to find her not there.
There was a piece of paper on her pillow. The sheets smelled of her sweet perfume. Heaven.
The paper said "Dear Dani, this was all a mis understanding".
I had no clue what it meant.
I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth.
I went afterwards back to the bed.
I switched the tv on.
It was the news.
The headline caught my eye.
" 18yr old girl murdered in Memphis"
I thought this was weird since me and the boys just performed there last night.
Where afterwards we had that party.
Where I met her.
That special girl.
The picture of the victim revealed.
It was her.
