Room 257

Him

"You'll do great Xena, you just have to clean all the rooms!" Said Katlyn sitting on my desk chair. I sighed. "What if". Katlyn raised her hand. "No what if's" she said interrupting me. I shook my head. "Alrighty...let's start" Katlyn sighed out. I looked surprised. "You're my partner or something?" I asked. She laughed. "Bitch no! I'm just going to show you everything and where everything is" she stated. "Oh" I replied.

Well THATS embarrassing

We walked down the hall, then went into the 'Maid Room'. Katlyn started pointing. "Mops there, rags there, dusters there, sheets there, pillow cases here, anddd I think that's it".

After long hours of cleaning...

I sighed... "Only six rooms done...but in five hours" keep in mind each room takes about and hour or so...yeah these rooms are small but have everything you need.

That did not feel like five hours at all felt like a whole twenty four hours! I'm surprised I'm not to tired...

"Ok, now onto room 259". I headed to the elevator, once again it opened like it knew I was coming. I then soon found the room after going up and down the hall a few times.

"Cleaning lady!" I said loudly. No answer. I tried again just to make sure.

"Cleaning lady!". Still no answer. I took out my keys and unlocked the door. I started making the bed, of course changing out the sheets and everything. "Who are you?! And why are you in my room?". I gasped and turned around. Standing before me was a tall, well I'd say around six something, guy...cute....like really really cute. He looked like he just got out of the shower. "Answer me, why are you here?" He asked again, more quietly this time. "I" i started.

Why can't I speak...

After a brief moment of silence I could answer him. "What does it look like?" I asked. "Did you not here me knocking and yelling at the door?". He ran his fingers through his hair and sighed. "No, no I did not, I was in the shower...". He looked a little embarrassed but his voice sounded like he was speaking in sarcasm. "Well, if you could please hurry it up? I have other rooms to do..." I told him. He raised and eyebrow and smirked. "Of course my lady" he said bowing. I rolled my eyes. What a fool...

After taking his sweet time getting dressed he finally got out of my way. I soon wiped out the vacuum, which I decided to pick up on the way, and went to work on the floor.

"Done! It looks pretty good for an hours work!" I said to myself. "I couldn't agree more".

Him...

"Why are you here...again..." I said rolling my eyes. He lifted an eyebrow. "Oh, am I not allowed to come into my own room dear?" He replied, I swear he gets on my nerves...

I grunted. He soon laughed.

"You're cute when your mad" He said sighing like you would when you saw your middle school crush walking down the hallway. I was shocked of course, he hardly knew me and I hardly knew him and he was already calling me 'cute'.

"I'm glad you got here safely, that walk didn't look to fun...".

HUH?!

"What do you mean?" I asked shaking a little. "I saw you" He replied. "You SAW me? What do you mean you SAW me?!" I said, my voice getting louder. "You saw me to". I soon thought back, man, side of the road, the man on the side of the road!

"You were that man I was looking at?" I asked, calming down, just a touch of course. "I would prefer, you were that really cute looking man on the side of the road that i was looking at, but we will work everything out later princess" He said pouring himself, well I'm not to sure what it was, it was red for all I know. I soon pointed a figure at him. "Don't call me princess, I'm not anyone's princess and I'm certainly not yours!". He put his drink down on the table. "Not yet anyways" He said, getting closer. Before anything could happen between us, I quickly turned around and grabbed my cleaning stuff and rushed out the hotel room.

"What the hell just happened there...?" I questioned myself. I shook my head to get all the thoughts out then moved onto room 258 then 257.

room 257 wasn't on my list but...Katlyn said all the rooms so I got to...but why didn't they put it on there?

"Cleaning lady!" I said loudly also knocking, of course. I hope I don't run into another jerk like him...I opened the door and I was shocked, surprised even. Spiderwebs, beds not made, dusty as fuck...there was so much cleaning to do....I got started right away.

Something didn't feel right...

I looked around. It was dark...but some light from the window crept in.

What the...

I started breathing heavily...blood...It didn't look fresh, it was quite old...but it was still blood. From someone.

Creeeekkkk

I looked up. The door had opened, maybe it was loose or something? I shook my head.

Wait...

I squinted just like I had done on the sidewalk looking at that jerk, but minus the trucks and cars. There as something there, I just couldn't quite make it out. Whatever It was, was standing very still... "probably a dumb Halloween decoration" I laughed to myself.

But why would it be in here? In a hotel room, with dried blood on the floor?

"Don't go back" something whispered...it was near where that thing was. "Okay, Katlyn and or Davon, you party animal, that's enough! I got work to do, take all these decorations down!" I shouted waving my hand in front of my face from the dust. I soon got closer to the closet. Something tickled my nose. "Katlyn! Stop!" I laughed waving my hand again, but whatever my hand brushed against it was very,  heavy, but light, and hairy like I was touching hair. Of course.

I looked up and screamed, then ran out the room without taking anything with me...

(Authors note)

What did Xena see? Why did she scream? You'll know in the next chapter. And him, what did we think of him? Very flirty I'd say. Hope it was good.

Peace✌🏼❤️
