Lila walked back to Lavender, and extended her hand to pull her up. Lavender whined, but got up anyway. "Is he gone?" She asked.
"Don't worry. He's gone now…" Lila answered.
"Great. Who in the name of hell was that?" Lavender went to sit down on one of the beds in the motel room.
"You mean 'What the hell was that?'" Lila mumbled.
"What?"
Lila didn't want to tell her sister what she saw. 'Maybe it's just lack of sleep.' she thought to herself.
"Huh? nothing." she responded to Lavender. She walked over to the fridge and opened it. "Hey look, guess we aren't alone. But on the bright side." She pulled two beers out of the fridge. "Free booze!"
"You know I don't believe in drinking. I don't want- Wait is that pie!?" Lavender jumped back up and ran to her sister's side. As if she didn't just run a mile in a full sprint.
Lila shrugged her shoulders, "Suit yourself… And looks like you'll be fine."
Lavender grinned and unwrapped the half eaten chocolate pie as fast as she could. 'It's like the universe is trying to say sorry for sending a crazy murderer at us.'
Once she got some of the pie in her mouth, using her pointer and middle finger as a spoon, she took a look around the room they had 'broken' into. It was okay for a motel she guessed. It had two beds a couple feet apart from each other. The window was covered with some old blinds and the carpet looked like something a dog wouldn't want to lay down on but that's fine because the beds didn't look that bad. Lavender noticed on the table there was a laptop plugged into the wall. Lila, who had already opened one of the beers, noticed around the same time Lavender did and grinned, "Dibs!" She called.
"Damnit!" Lavender whined and stuffed another chunk of chocolate pie into her mouth to make herself feel better herself.
"I think I might be in shock." 'No one is this calm right after being attacked.' Lavender thought to herself. 'No one just sits down and gorges themselves on pie right after fearing for their lives.'
"Well no shit, Sherlock…" Lila sarcastically added as she took a swig out of the beer bottle. The taste was bitter but it seemed to calm Lila's nerves a little. She opened up the laptop and surprisingly didn't have a lock on it. The screen had dozens of tabs open and it had the oddest things on it…
"Huh… Would you look at that." Lila said as her eyes fixed more on the screen.
"What?" Lavender said around a mouth full of food as she put her elbow the table and rested her chin on her hand.
"The guys that are staying here are weird… Like I think they might be Satanists or something…"
"Don't tell me we walked into crazy alien believer bedroom? What makes you think they crazies are guys?" Lavender asked quizzically.
"Well no somewhat decent girl would have pie and beer stored in a shitty motel room and judging by their web history on legends and folklore, the devil and some… porn." She paused and pointed at the dresser right by Lavender where a stack full of magazines were, "I mean if you check the drawers there's bound to be men's clothing."
Lavender stood up and rummaged through the drawers and Lila was right. She looked down at her muddy t-shirt. 'Well, I already ate their pie...' Lavender helped herself and changed into one of the shirts she found.
"This shirt is amazing! It's so soft!" Lavender put her hands under her hair to get the rest out of her shirt until she realized something, her hair had been chopped off and is barely past her chin now. She grabbed at what was left of her hair and the reality between the two girls kicked in, their 5 minute fantasy had past. The pain all over their body began to feel more and more noticeable by the second.
"Shit…" Lavenders voice was shaking. "My hair… it's gone.." She ran into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror, her face scratched up and covered in dirt. Her hair short and shaggy. She almost didn't look like the same person.
Lila followed up behind her and saw that her face looked just as bad. Except there were tear stains on Lila's cheeks that made it beyond obvious that she was crying. She met her sister's eyes in the mirror and shrugged her shoulders.
"You know," She added and put her hand on her sister's shoulder. "I kinda like the short hair look on you. It works."
Lavender forced herself to grin and nodded her head, "I can see it."
Lila turned away and jumped when her sister cried out in surprise. "Lila your shoulder!" Lavender's face got a little green and she glared at her sister "You never tell me anything!"
"I thought it was a small cut or something." Lila reacted defensively, "I thought the pain would pass."
"I don't give a shit if it's just a god damn paper cut. You tell me!" Lavender grabbed Lila by the hair and guided her to sit on the side of the bathtub. Lila took off her shirt as slowly as she could, revealing the wound. Lila still had on her undershirt underneath. Lavender filled that sink with water and pushed the stopper in place. After that she grabbed a small towel and put it under some water. "Hold still. This is going to hurt like a bitch."
"I don't want people getting worried if I scream. Give me my other shirt to bite down on." Lavender handed her sister the shirt Lila was wearing before.
"Use the clean side." Lavender teased, smirking. Lila just rolled her eyes.
She dabbed the wet towel onto the cut as gently as possible. Lila winced and bit down on the shirt, but other wise made not sounds. Once the towel was more blood than cloth she dipped it into the water in the sink to clean it off and continued to clean her sister's wound.
"You're right." Lila inhaled. "It hurts like hell."
Lavender put down the towel and washed it out for the last time, Lila's wound had been cleaned up as best as it could be.
"Yeah I bet, but it should be fine. It's not deep so just let the cut close up and it should be fine in no-" her sentence was cut short when she heard the doorknob jiggling and unlocking.
