“I don’t know.”

He hums. The hand holding my face drags me towards him, and he leans closer and kisses me deeply, madly. He sucks on my lip, biting it teasingly, and pulls away slowly.

“Don’t worry about it.”

He gets up and puts his clothes back on. Disappointment hits me – the moment is now definitely over.Good job, Evy!

He moves towards the door and grabs a chisel and hammer, starting to slam it into the side of the door where the lock is. After a few hits, he manages to damage the lock enough for the door to open and walks out towards the staircase.

“Are you coming or what?”

I quickly grab his shirt since he ripped mine.How did I sleep through him tying me up?

He looks up at me putting on his shirt with a small smile on his lips.

“What?”

“Nothing.”

He pulls me closer and we start slowly walking out of his room.

As he’s checking out the stairs, I quickly walk to my room to put on some new clothes. No way am I walking around half-naked in an oversized T-shirt that belongs to Felix, especially if we come across Britt. How would I explain that to her?

I walk back to Felix, seeing him tense his jaw as he looks up, annoyed at me. He doesn’t say a word as we quietly step down the stairs. There's an eerie kind of silence through the house as if something is waiting, watching us. I try to ignore the feeling, but the further downstairs we go, the more intense the feeling grows.

“Do you feel that too?”

Felix doesn’t answer me right away and moves me towards the dining room. He closes the door before turning to me.

“What did you feel? Are you okay?”

I hug myself while I look at the door behind him. What if he thinks I’m crazy again? Can I trust him? What if he’s still possessed and it’s just playing tricks on me?

Strong hands grab my head and two beautiful hazel brown eyes look right into me. There's concern written all over his face. “Evy? Talk to me, what's wrong?”

“I felt like something or someone was watching us, even though I didn’t see anyone. I just know there was someone out there.”

Felix hums and lets me walk further into the room.

“I think someone or something is in here too."

I walk over to where he’s standing and see a big spot of dried blood on the floor.

What the fuck! Did someone get murdered? Where’s Brittany?

My breathing hitches, and a sensation like millions of pins and needles spreads through my entire body. I can’t breathe! I need air! My head’s getting dizzy and I think I’m going to faint.

Strong arms cover my body before I hit the ground and pull me close. His hands are tangled in my hair and he begins kissing my forehead.

"Shhhh. I’m here, calm down. You're okay.”

BAMBAMBAM

Our heads turn to the door, where the sound is coming from.

I take a deep breath and get back up while Felix walks towards the area, placing his hand on the knob.

BAMBAMBAM
