Chapter 7: Lucy

Lucy:

We get in the hotel and rush into our room. We get in bed and try to sleep. I hear the door open and then close. I can't sleep. I hear Alex's small snore. It matches rhythm with Macy's. I know they're sleeping. I hear some russleing and take a small peak. Nessa's getting up from her bed and walking out. Where is she going? As soon as she closes the door behind her, I get up. It's 11:40pm. The next check in is at two in the morning. I put on some shoes and grab my phone. We're still wearing what we wore earlier, so I don't have to change. I open the door quitely and it squeaks. I almost have a heart attack when Macy turns in her bed. I slip outside and close the door. I walk down the empty hall way. It's so quiet. I turn the corner and bump into someone. I look straight and see bare skin. I'm freaking out.

"Lucy? What are you doing out here?" He whispers.

"I should be asking you the same thing, Adrian," I say.

"Good point. Well, I was getting something to eat. You?" Adrian explains himself.

"Same," I lie. "I have to clear my head and eat something."

"Okay," Adrian says. "Well, goodnight. See you in the morning."

"Goodnight," I walks passed me and to his room. Well, that was embarrassing. I continue walking until I'm outside of the hotel. No sign of Janessa. Where could she have gone? I walk down the street trying to see if I spot any sign of her. I hear footsteps as I walk. I turn around and see no one. I continue walking.

"Hey," someone says directly behind me. Out of instinct, I turn around and punch whoever it is.

"Ow!" a guy clutches his nose. I don't know who he is. He has dark hair and looks at me with dark eyes. Well, everything is dark, so I really don't know what color his eyes are, but I do know his hair is either brown of black. He's my age.

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry," I say quickly.

"It's okay, I shouldn't have snuck up on you anyways," he says.

"Duh, you think. Who are you?" I ask.

"My name's Tyrece. And you're Lucy, right?" Tyrece replies.

"Yeah. How do you know my name?" I ask curiously.

"You're Xavier's friend," he says.

"I guess," I respond. "And you?"

"I'm one of his best friends."

I nod.

"What are you doing out here?"

"I'm looking for my friend."

"Well, look at who we have here," a voice from the shadows says.

"Ryan," Tyrece says.

"Tyrece, buddy," a pale guy with blonde hair comes out.

"We are not buddies," Tyrece snarls.

"Lucy," I hear Janessa's voice say.

"Nessa? What are you doing out here?" I ask as Janessa comes out of the shadows. I look over at Tyrece, who is glaring at Ryan. Ryan flares his fangs. I look back at Tyrece, who is now a wolf. Janessa remains silent. I back away as Ryan and Tyrece circle each other. I'm going to die. At least I'll die knowing that vampires and werewolves are real. That's not very bright. If I make it out alive, maybe Tyrece can help me scare Maddy and Dylan. That would be fun. What is wrong with me? Here I am, about to die, and I'm thinking about how to scare two people I despise. Oh well. There a hand on my shoulder.  I turn to see Xavier.

"Come with me if you want to be safe," he says in a low voice that is so serious. I'm afraid to say no, so I nod and take his hand. I turn back to see Janessa take some other guy's hand and walk away with him. At that same moment, Tyrece pounces on Ryan. Xavier runs, holding on to my hand and I'm practically dragged behind him. I almost trip fifty times before finally reaching our destination. We are in some old abandoned building. There is another wolf inside and a girl. Upond seeing me, the girl stands up and the wolf turns into a guy. The girl has blue hair and pale skin that is dotted with freckles and green eyes. The guy has greenish blue eyes and brown hair. Another guy walks in carrying five boxes of pizza. He has brown hair and brown eyes.
