The clear night illuminated while bright moon shined throughout the night. The road was silent, I live in the rural parts of Nevada it might be small but the things that goes on here are far from small its very dangerous, and there are many things that are kept in the dark.
The town is filled with bad energy. I do wish one day I'd be able to get out of here.One day I'd be able to get out of here to go to someplace cool like New York, out of the country , or something like that.
We've been driving for 10 minutes now, it was probably 3:46, and the car ride was dead silent.
"W-W-here do you want me to take you" I wondered still looking at the road.
"Take me the Chadwick motel on Cambridge street " He Replied
I could tell he was in a lot of pain.
"Uh ok you're pretty hurt you sure you don't want me to take you to the hospital or something" I asked considering he just got shot a couple minutes ago
"No I'm fine" he mumbled
Is this dude crazy he just got shot and could probably die right now !?
"Are you sure y-" i started
"I said I'm fine okay " he shot back interrupting me
"Look I'm just trying to help, i just don't want a stranger to die in my car knowing I could've done something" I shouted back
And with that the whole car went silent again.
I see the motel sign and pull up to a parking space.

I see him opened the door and attempted to get out, but failed to do so he was to weak, and was loosing a lot of blood.
"Let me help you out" offered
I got out the car and walked over to where he was at. He was covered in blood, I stare at him, unable to move, as blood gushes from his wounds. I come back to life and quickly grab his arm and put it around my neck and pulled him out the car we both struggled, but we made it out.
We walked slowly to the motel opening because it was hard holding him up.
This motel was one of those where seedy men with beer guts went to bang other peoples wives, a place of drug-dealers and pimps, creeps, and shady dealings , the local parks were hang-outs for addicts.
We walked into the motel, I took a look at the place and it was very old-fashioned. The floor carpet was a decade too old and it had an old-fashioned pattern and large flowers.
"Can we please get a room please?" I asked the lady struggling to keep him up
"I. D and Credit Card please it's 20 dollars a night and is everything alright" she answered looking concerned
"Uh... yeah I- only have cash is that okay" I said searching in my bag for them
I took out the money Bianca gave me and handed her 20.
"I. D," she asked again
"I don't have one on me can you please just give us a damn room" I yelled
"Okay, Okay," she mumbled
"Room 18," she said handing me the keys
"Thanks," I said taking the keys and walked out of the office
By this time I assumed the man had passed out he could die any second. The amount of blood he was loosing was deadly I had absolutely no idea what to do I needed to call the ambulance.
I laid him down on the bed and by surprise, his eyes were partly opened.
At this point I was shaking I had no idea what to do. I don't know why things always happened to me out of all people. I had realized I couldn't call the cops because I would go to jail because I stole someone's car and they would ask to many questions.
I looked up and saw him staring at me.
I got up and ran to the bathroom and got some towels and water to clean up the blood.
I reached in my bag to get out the pair of leggings I packed to wrap it around where he was shot. Thankfully the bullet went out. I cleaned his wounds with the minimal supply we had.
He watched me quietly.
"Thank you," he let out
"Mhm, It's nothing," I said tying the fabric around him.
"What's your name," he asked
"Nala" I said
How does he even have the energy to say anything, as I stared at him his grey eyes were like pale smoke, like cloudy skies. His skin was also very pale. His eyelids started to shut slowly.
I started to panic shaking him.
"Relax I was just falling asleep" he reassured
I backed up embarrassed.
"Oh sorry "
Once again his eyes closed.
I didn't know what to do it would be kind of awkward if I stayed but at the same time, I couldn't really leave I had nowhere to go after all this was my hotel.
After some time of thinking I decided to stay, there were 2 beds so I got up and went to go lay in the other one. It was a really long day so it wasn't really hard to fall asleep I feel this blackness come over me. Like a blanket, but not a blanket of warmth but a blanket of coldness making me shiver. But somehow it's making my eyes feel heavier and heavier. I finally close my eyes finally sending me to sleep.
