Quickly I'd like to say that I took a look at my first fanfic at like 4 am today and thought, I need to do something with this. It could be really good. So I plan to revise that story in my free time. While this story is my main priority, I'm having too much fun with it too stop. The ideas are just pouring out.

I picked up a bit on the story in this chapter. All errors are on me, sometimes I don't look as close as I should.

Thank you Robin and lovinmich for the first reviews. x

All rights go to the respective parties.

Hope you like.

I woke up with my body aching all over. Crud. I opened my heavy eyelids and turned my head to the side. Mr. Hunter was asleep sprawled out on half of the bed and facing away from me. The sounds coming from his mouth were the only reason I believe he really was asleep.

I looked around at the room now, not having been given the time to a few hours before. I paused when my eyes hit the door. Where was Felix? He usually came to bring another john. I looked back over and he was indeed the man in the tuxedo from earlier this morning. Was it still even morning?

Fuck Bella, you're losing it.

I turned towards the wall, facing away from Mr. Hunter. Maybe I too could get some more sleep. It was useless though. I stared across the room at the intricate chestnut molding for what seemed like hours, tracing the small almost undefinable patterns. Finally my eyes slowly drifted downward and I was grateful for it until something caught my eye.

I was wide awake again.

I stared at the knob protruding from the side wall and through a glance at the door I had come in hours before. Had that always been there? I wanted to smack myself, of course it was always there. I just hadn't noticed it before. Maybe it led to a back emergency exit. Fancy places like this had to have something like that.

I forced myself up into a sitting position and took one look at Mr. Hunter. Dirty fuck would be eating shit if I got out. The thought brought a smile to my lips. I was surprised I could still do that.

Grabbing my shoes and slipping into my dress I hoped to god that it was an exit. Thinking of how stupid I could possibly be, I opened the door. From the light coming from the hotel room I could see a set of spiraling stairs. Up or down, a stupid question. I was about to leave when I stopped to think. Thinking's always good.

I put my shoes down and walked over to a pile of fancy linens. I dug around till I pulled a wallet from a fine set of pants. 3 large bills were sitting in the fold. Jackpot. Thanks for the cash James.

I scurried back to the secret exit, closing the door gently before flying down the stairs.

Free again.

The stair case happen to lead to walk looked like an employee only room. There were large sets of lockers around me. Hoping that I would go unnoticed I made my way between the lockers towards another door but an open locker caught my eyes. There were jeans and a T-shirt inside the locker. I did a double take. I couldn't leave in this flimsy dress and a pair of heels when the clothes I needed sat right before me.

I changed and shoved my heels and dress in between the wall and another locker where I had found some socks that were not so fresh and some old sneakers. But I seriously wasn't complaining. The clothes were a bit baggy but I really didn't mind. I loved the feeling of being covered up.

The next door led me to a small hall. One door said lobby in big bold letters, the other had an exit sign hanging above it glowing. I swallowed, wishing I would have found a hoodie so I could hide my face and hair. They probably had someone sitting outside in the car. They would notice me.

Everyone notices someone that looks like me.

Well then I just can't look like myself then can I?

After putting up my hair with one of the shoelaces I used the other as a belt. I smudge at my make up with a towel in another locker trying to hurry along. Like I wanted to be found still in the fucking hotel.

I stepped out into a clear sunny day. My face lit up instantly and I wondered how odd my face would look with the yellow bruises that were slowly fading away. I pushed the thought out of my head and forced myself not to shove my hands into my pockets. I was supposed to look normal, or as normal as possible in my case. I kept my face relatively kind and walked down the street with what I was wishing looked like purpose. Women walked with purpose right?

I sighed heavily feeling a bit overwhelmed. Then my eyes hit the rear of a black SUV. I tried to play it cool and walked away from it up the street as my heart made its way up into my throat. I wanted to vomit it out as my head began to pound to the beat.

I made it maybe 2 miles away and my heart was still in my throat and my feet were starting to burn. I had never spent so much time upright, let alone walking. I was searching for a phone booth first, but I pushed the idea off at how public I would be. Instead I made my way towards the edge of town, repeating a rich, kind lady's number as I walked.

I really didn't like the idea at the time of throwing away the business card but it was a good call. I already knew the number, it was etched into the back of my eyelids in the small bolded font. Plus if I was caught again Jane would find it, I know she would. She was smarter than Alec.

I stopped at a small park with a playground at one end and a ball field at another. I sat closer to the ball field forcing myself to sit in the shade so I would be less noticeable, though I longed for the warm rays of the sun to flush my pale skin.

There was some sort of commotion on the ball field, two men were having at it. One was much bigger than the other, like tank sized. I wanted to laugh at the scenario as they all seemed to get in on the action. They were pointing fingers and yelling and swatting and hands, leaving their gloves and bats unattended in the short, tufty grass. All but one. Her presence was what had me choking on my laughter and holding back tears.

A bit cliffy maybe. Do you know who it is?

Did you like it? Did you hate it? Tell me your thoughts.

Also, I've decided I will try and continue to post on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. I've been writing ahead before posting chapters so I have a bit of a head start (I hope) if I get busy or just don't feel inspired enough.

Sorry for the long ANs, just giving a heads up to you lovelies.
