Silence, total and complete silence. I frowned and rolled over on the bed to look at the clock. Its red light flashed 8:53, causing me to throw my pillow at it. Alana and Darren looked up from their game of go fish and I put on a small smile.

"I can't get comfortable." They nodded and continued to play their game. I turned my attention back to the door, just in time to see it open. I sat up and smiled, expecting Kevin. It was Colton.

"Hey, I came to say goodnight and tell you everyone else is asleep." I nodded and looked at Alana and Darren; it was time for them to go to bed as well. "Can you watch them for me?" I saw him nod and rushed out of the room.

Kevin had gone to the lobby to ask for extra towels almost an hour ago and I had a weird felling in the pit of my stomach. After a terrifying ride in the elevator I made it to the lobby and looked around.

Not seeing him I walked over to the front desk, where a girl with an over perky smile sat behind the desk talking to a family. I waited patiently until she was done and then stepped up to the desk.

"Hello, welcome to holiday inn-" I cut her off "hi, im staying in room 473 and I can't seem to find a member of my group; he came down about an hour ago to request more towels."

Her smile got smaller as she typed something into her computer. "One Kevin Thompson came down a while ago, but he didn't request towels." I frowned and bit my lip, waiting for her to continue. "He requested a taxi."

My heart almost stopped and my lip started to bleed. "Are, are you sure he requested a taxi?" she nodded and continued to look at the screen. "Ok thank you." I turned to go back upstairs

"Ill send those towels up right away." I nodded and thanked her again before going to my room, this time taking the stairs so I could try to put a cap on my emotions.

"Mommy!" I blinked and turned on the light, Alana and Darren were playing with glow sticks along with the flock. "I thought you were going to bed" I picked up Alana and swung her around before setting her on my hip and kissing Darren on top of his head.

"Look what we found in daddy's backpack." She held up a glow stick, excitement showing on her face as she played with it. I flipped of the light again and carefully made my way to the bed. Darren followed and crawled into my lap along with Alana.

Hunter and Colton came over to sit down. "What happened?" hunter asked in almost a whisper as Beverly chased Matthew and Maria around the room. "Taxi, left." He nodded and started to help Beverly in her game of tag.

I sighed and fell back on the bed, closing my eyes and pulling the pillow under my head. Wondering why he had lied then left and where he was now. Most importantly when he was coming back.
