Kayleigh pulled into the small driveway, up ahead stood a small yet cozy cottage. She rolled her eyes, camping was NOT her thing, but Jade had persisted that they find a place that was isolated. Why? Well Kayleigh sure didn't know, and Jade hadn't offered an explanation. Regardless of it all, the little house wasn't too bad.
She got out, reaching for the take-out bags, and headed for the front door. Balancing her hold on the food, she managed to get her keys out and fumbled for the one to the front door.
A twig snapped in the bit of woods surrounding the house. Her head snapped up and she stopped dead to listen. Nothing but the wind............and something breathing heavily?
She moved her elbow to touch her waist, and felt the hard metal of her 9mm through the fabric of her made her feel a little better, but what if iron rounds didn't work?
"Jade!"
There was a crashing noise inside, followed by the door bursting open to reveal her sister.
"What?" Jade asked, looking around to see what was going on.
Kayleigh kept her gaze on the woods, but no more sounds came, and nothing was moving. She was probably overreacting, so she shrugged off.
"Nothing, help me with these bags"
