My sleep was disturbed by a low mumbling. I opened my eyes and looked around. It was still dark out.
I looked up to see if Evander was still awake but what I saw made me scream.
Evander's blue eyes were glowing...

"I'm coming with you..." he said after a long pause.
"You what?!" I asked, "Why?! Don't you have a family or something?!" I asked completely confused as to what brought this on. I've known this guy for like 2 hours; what, is he on about?!
"Yeah, and I'm sure you have family too, but here you are. I'm coming with you." He said walking passed me and into the inn.
"Hey, wait!" I said, going after him as best as I could with my injury. It's not that bad anymore, just stings a little.
"Evander! C'mon! What the hell?! You barely even know me, vice versa! How do you know I'm not in some sort of elite gang? You could die!" I exclaimed, trying to reason with him.
I hadn't bargained on having a partner to travel with when I left the manor. I was ready and willing to go at it alone, I wasn't prepared for anything like this to happen.
"Doesn't bother me; we'll die anyways. What does it matter if it happens a little early?" He shrugged.
I stood there gaping at him as he talked with the lady at the desk.
What is wrong with this guy?! He's nuts! Nuts!
"I've got us a two bedroom, we'll leave first thing uh tomorrow morning if we want to put as much space between us and... whoever you're running from; as well as give your wound time to heal." He said, taking the key from the woman.
He walked off. I smiled at the woman and hurried after him, "Who put you in charge? What if I want to leave later in the afternoon?" I said stopping as we climbed the stairs.
"Well for starters, if you were to leave in the afternoon, whoever you're running from would've found you and you wouldn't be able to escape them fast enough because of your leg. Also, leaving in the afternoon would be a bad idea because you would have less daylight which means you could get stuck on the highway or something then be at the mercy of those... 'big dogs' you heard earlier." He said with a smirk.
Bitch. I wasn't actually going to leave in the afternoon, "Oh whatever Jono! Listen, I'm not travelling with you, I'm doing this on my own, alright? I don't need a man or anyone for that matter following me around and telling me what to do? Got it?! I've had enough of that for a lifetime. Now hand me the room key!" I snapped.
Damn. It felt good to yell at him. I felt great after that. I haven't spoken my mind like that before and it felt good to get it all off my chest. It felt amazing. I felt powerful.
He slowly handed me the room key and I marched— limped, quickly up the stairs and found the room. I swung the door open and headed straight for the bedroom. I wanted to knock out so bad. I was exhausted.
I looked at the clock in the room and saw that it was around 1 in the morning.
"Fuck me, I'm a slow walker..." I mumbled to myself. I dropped my bag on the bed and rummaged through it for a different shirt. I took my clothes with me into the shower and washed them before getting in myself. I don't know when I'll next be able to shower again so I'm gonna take advantage of this. After my shower, I put on the shirt and fresh underwear before going back into the room to dry my clothes.
My sorting was interrupted by the door opening.
"Althea, I just wanted to apologise for-" He stopped as I stared at him in horror.
"Get out you bastard!" I screamed throwing my shoe at him. He caught it and tried to get out of the room but walked into the wall.
He staggered from the wall and was in that weird haze again. He couldn't even stand still and was starting to freak me out a little bit.
"Ever heard of knocking?! Leave!" I yelled.
He suddenly stood up right and put the shoe down, not turning around to face me.
"I'm so sorry!" He called as he made his way out the room.
"O Theé mou!" I exclaimed once I realised that the stranger that I didn't know, didn't know the age of, had seen me half naked! What if that was his plan this whole time?! Geez! Pervert!
