Awakened {COMPLETED}

Roommate?

I've been living in Cottonwood Falls for about 2 weeks now and I have made one friend. 

He doesn't know why I left Wisconsin but he and I have gotten pretty close. I don't know how he'd react if I told him the whole story and now that someone is here I can't take the chance of him leaving. 

I get up from the bed and go to the bathroom. I stand in front of the mirror and rest my hands on the sink. It's gonna be a long day. 

I jump at the loud banging sound coming from the hotel door. 

Making my way to the door I swing it open ready to hit whoever decided to bang on my door at 6 am!!!

"Gabriel?" 

He walks past me with a big smile on his face. "GUESS WHAT!" He says, practically jumping out of his skin. 

"Whatever it is you better wish for your sake it's too big to have CALLED ME," I say and shut the door. He walks over and plops himself down on my bed. "I rented an apartment! I move out of this shithole today." He says and I can hint at some of his accent. "That's great." 

His eyes light up. "But that's not the best part." 

"Then what is?"

"I want you to move with me." My heart stops. "Seriously?" 

"Yeah we can split the rent I don't want you to stay here either, at least until you can get on your feet." 

"Okay, thank you," I say. He smiles and jumps off the bed to wrap me into a hug. I hug him back and he squeezes me harder, causing me to smack his back. 

"AIR." 

"Oh right." He says and lets me go. I laugh and shake my head again. 

I walk over to the bed and plop down.

"When we moving roomie?" I ask, I feel like he mentioned it but I don't remember. 

"Today. Pack up buttercup." He says and I laugh. 

"Gabe you're gonna be the death of me," I say. 

He throws his head back and laughs. "Good."

I look at him and fake being hurt, "Ouch." I say and dramatically put my hand over my heart. He sighs and shakes his head. 

"Alright, chica, I gotta go pack, meet me down stairs in an hour." 

"Okay!" I holler as he shuts the door behind him. 

Guess I should probably start packing then. 

I start laughing to myself. What am I supposed to back? Everything I own fits inside that duffel bag. I shake my head at myself and grab the duffel bag. I still have an hour. I shrug and head to Gabriel's room. I'll just annoy him while he packs. 

I knock on his door and wait for him to open it. 

A few minutes pass and I knock again. 

Still no response. 

"Gabriel?" I ask, cracking open the door. The room is dark and it looks untouched. Like he never even came in here. 

I open the door the rest of the way and walk in. I make my way around the counter that's by the door and go into the little side room. 

Nothing. 

Where the hell is he?? 

"GABRIEL!" I yell. 

"BOO!" 

I scream and turn around. Gabriel is standing there poking his head out of the closet door in the hallway. "YOU ASS!" I put my hand on my chest to try to slow my heart rate. He throws his head back laughing.
