The Beacon || Colby Brock

Chapter 17

Veras POV:

"The WHAtT!?... I did not say that!" I yelled

"You kinda did," Jake said softly while making his way over to Colby with the first aid kit. He opened the bag and took out a few things, but seemed confused,

"Here let me, I did a first aid course a few years ago incase anything ever went wrong in our videos," I said softly, "You're going to uh...you have to take your pants off..." I said blushing slightly

Claire and Jake were over by the bed with Corey who now was regaining consciousness, while Sam was helping me with Colby, I took a alcohol rubbing pad and cleaned the wound and then added some ointment while covering it with bandages tightly, "This is the best I can do for now, are you sure you don't want to go to the hospital, I think you might need stitches," I said concerned

"No, I'm okay really, it's not that bad," He said smiling weakly, I gave him a look of disbelief before getting up,

"So what now?" I heard Claire say from across the room, "What is our next step?"

I looked at Colby and he gazed back, "I think you guys should leave..." Sam and Colby got up and looked at me confused, while Jake slowly nodded in agreement with me, "What do you mean leave, like the room or..." I interrupted Sam before he could say anything else

"The hotel..." I took a deep breath before continuing, "... all that you guys have gotten out of this whole trip was a concussed Corey, A leg injured Colby and learning that I most probably have a demon attached to me and that I hold the key to the afterlife or some shit. You can't even make a YouTube video out of this, because it is to unreal to be believable, plus I don't want the world to see what happened here..."

Colby and Sam where shocked by what I had to say, but Jake, not so much," She's right you guys..." Jake said while looking at the floor,"You might feel that this is interesting or something new, but this is dangerous shit we are messing with, and it's not even our battle to fight..."

I looked at Colby and I could see the hurt in his eyes, 'doesn't he realize that I can't see him get hurt again, and that I'm trying to protect him and his friends!?' I thought to myself.

"Fine..." Is all that came out of Colbys mouth and he stormed out the room, "I'll talk to him." Sam said and followed him out.

I just sat down on a couch behind me and laid my head down on my knees, Claire joined me and gave me a comforting hug, she understood how I felt out of everyone the best.

Corey and Jake just sat on the bed while we waited for either Sam or Colby to come back.

"Uh Vera can you come outside quickly please." Sam said while peaking his head through the door, "Just you." He clarified

"Yeah?" I asked confused

"Colby doesn't want to talk to me, he's hurt and confused and honestly I think the adrenaline of the previous events still hasn't left his body, but I get the feeling that he'd want to talk to you..."

I gave him a weak smile and walked passed him to the elevator, I eventually arrived at their room and the door was open, I peaked in and saw Colby slowly packing his things.

"Hey..." I said softly
