People of the Night

Chapter 1

One late summer evening, Charles and Alyssa were driving back to their summer home from a nice dinner. The highway was dark and cold. Charles and Alyssa were the only people on the road. The couple's summer home was located in the depths of South Carolina, so they had an awfully long way to go. Let me take this time to explain Charles and Alyssa for they both have distinct personalities. Charles was born in midtown Los Angeles. When growing up as a kid he didn't really have a lot of friends. During most of his college years he spent most of his time in the art room. This was the only true place he could express himself. All the other kids made fun of him for drawing and painting exotic artwork. Charles didn't let it get to him. Now Alyssa on the otherhand was the girl everyone was talking about. Alyssa was never the person to be invited to parties, she was always the one to throw them. Through her college years she got tired of jocks and tools hitting on her. Alyssa was the hottest girls in school, so of course she would get it on most of the time. Although, she was popular doesn't mean she was a stuck up bitch all the time, excuse my french.Although Alyssa was a queen on the outside, on the inside she was a little bit of a nerd. Growing up as a kid she always thought that her Prince Charming would come throwing rocks on her window like an old 80's movie. She always knew that would never happen like in the movies and books she had discovered. Before high school Alyssa covered up the fact that she was a nerd, so she removed the glasses and put her hair down Now how they met? Well it all started when Alyssa was on the football field with her "group" she noticed to spot a boy in the bleachers all by himself. She excused herself from the group as she made her way up to Charles. She noticed that Charles was sketching a picture of an old vintage car. Alyssa was always a sucker for those cute boys were all always awkward and shy. They both started to chat and they got so into each other's company that they stayed there until sunset. They both sat and stared at the sunset together. Alyssa always got so fluttered when talking and Charles, well he was just a little wimp cause he hasn't talked to any girls in like 3 years, but he was still a good looking, handsome guy. Charles then got the guts to ask her out to coffee. Alyssa nodded yes as she jumped up with excitement. As they both parted ways to their dorm, they kept turning back to look at each other. Ever since then they been dating, from there they graduated, moved in with each other, and just lived life. Now back to the part where they were driving.

Charles POV:

God we've been driving for such a long time, I've gotta take a huge piss. Alyssa's been sleeping for the past two hours, lucky bitch. This road is so lonely, I feel like I've been driving for hours. Am I going in fucking circles, what. the. fuck.

It's been two hours and we have one hour left. Alyssa woke up from her nap, finally. I've been jamming out to broadway music for a while and I've been enjoying it very much. Oh hold the fuck up...Is this Aladdin? Awhhhh yeah this is my jam!!!

Alyssa's POV:

Oh. My. God. He's been listening to broadway music the whole time. I can't check Twitter, Instagram, and I can't listen to Lana. I love him to death, but god him and his broadway music.

"Can you please put on something else?" I asked.

"Let me check my library," Charles replied.

I hope to god he doesn't pick Disney music. Please don't pick it. Please don't pick it. Please don't pick...

"I have Disney music!" Charles said with excitement.

"Fine," I said with a sigh

I wonder why we are going to my parent's summer home, I haven't been there since I was like 16. That's where Charles and I had our 4 year anniversary.

When the couple were driving Alyssa discovered unusual figures in the middle of the road.

"Charles," I said to him while he was listening to his music.
