Ok hi everybody, how is everyone? O hope your all doing good. Well here is my next chapter and well I'm going to change the tables and all and stick to a normal point of view, thanks to. I'm glad you pointed out how it didn't sound too good. I'm going to rewrite the past chapters and make them into a normal pov as well. This is good because I had no idea where I was going to take this story if only Evy told it so this is much better. Please review once you've read because I need to know what you guys think and if I should keep going and weather or not the story is any good, you are all my support. Thanks for reviewing in the past you guys keep me going.
Evy had been asleep a little over a few hours when she woke with a start. She quickly sat up in bed and looked around her room, though it was dark, her eyes were already adjusted, making it easy to already see.
The room was empty from what she could tell, but something in the pit of her stomach didn't feel too right. Slowly she got out of her bed and walked towards her bed room door and opened it, hoping to see somebody in the hallway for any reason at all, but found nobody.
After closing the door and making her way back into her room she walked to her balcony door and stepped outside, allowing the 1:00 morning air to enter her lungs. She walked over to the ledge and relaxed her arms looking out at the moon and night sky.
She began to turn and walk back in her room to sleep after finding nothing when she spotted the small bouquet of flowers sitting not too far from her. The flowers startled her because she could have sworn she saw the flowers fly over the balcony earlier, but she must have been mistaken.
Taking the flowers in her hands she gave a small smile and smelled them, letting the scent of lilies and lavender to enter her nostrils and over take her mind into a complete state of dream. Holding them in her hands a familiar, yet distant scent lingered. The smell of a rose hit her nose and she opened her eyes to glance at the flowers once more.
There, in the middle of the bouquet, sat the smallest, yet most beautiful white rose she'd ever seen. It was small enough to be hidden beneath the others to not recognize, but big enough to over take the other smells. Looking down at the rose she saw it had been shoved in there and had not been present during the wedding, Steph hated roses, she loved only lilies and lavenders.
Confused, Evy took the flowers into her room and laid them next to her bed to ask Saron how the rose had gotten there.
Evy crawled back into bed and relaxed her head on her pillow, but couldn't find sleep. So instead she took the flowers again and inhaled the sweet aroma. Letting the smell of the white rose enter her nose and mind again, Evy remembered where the last time she saw a white rose at.
She had been in Egypt with Rick and they had been in the park together just walking on her lunch break from the museum when he pulled out a white rose and put it in her hair. It was a surprise because those types of flowers never grew in Egypt and they were out of season, but he still wouldn't tell her where he got them.
Sitting back up in bed, Evy flicked on the lamp that sat on her nightstand next to her bed and allowed her eyes to adjust to the light. Looking around the room she saw nothing, but sensed someone was there.
Throwing her feet over the edge of the bed, Evy climbed out and walked over to the bathroom and opened the door. Taking a slight peak inside, she heard a sound coming from outside of her door.
She quickly made her way to the door, she opened it and a loud scream filled the large house.
"My god! Evelyn, you scared me!" Saron said holding her chest to make sure her heart was still beating.
"You scared me!" she said looking oddly at her friend. "What are you doing up anyways?"
"I heard an odd noise coming from your room and I wanted to make sure you were alright."
"What kind of noise did you hear?"
"It sounded like somebody was breaking in, and Jonathan said you like to leave your balcony window open so you can freeze at night. I thought maybe someone was breaking in or something."
"Nobody's here, but I heard it too. I woke up to it."
"Is there anything abnormal about your room? I mean does it look like someone broke in?"
"No, but come and have a look see." Evy said moving out of the way for Saron to enter. Just as she did Ashley's door opened from across the hall.
"Is everything alright?" she asked poking her head out. "I hear a scream."
"Everything's fine, Saron just scared me." Evy said as Ashley nodded and re-entered her room. As Evy closed her bedroom door to look around with Saron she silently thanked god her brother could sleep through just about anything.
"I don't see much." Saron said making her way to the edge of the bed, getting on her hands and knees and looking under the bed.
"I woke up and walked outside and found this." Evy said walking over to the flowers and handing them to Saron.
"Wow, the bouquet, that's odd." She replied sarcastically looking at it.
"It is because I threw it out before I went to bed and I woke up to have it sitting there with a white rose."
"Steph hates roses."
"I know that's what's really odd about it."
"Something here's not right." Saron said sitting on a nearby chair as Evy crawled back in her bed and sat up, her waist and everything below covered by the sheets.
For another hour and a half they sat there talking about what could have happened. Soon Saron found herself asleep in the chair and Evy was fast asleep in her bed. And just as the morning sun rose Ashley walked in the room to see a little private slumber party that she wasn't invited to.
"Thanks you guys." She mumbled making her way out to the balcony and looked out into the garden watching the sun rise over the hills in the distance.
Well? How was it? Please review and let me know what you all think. Thanks again!
