Speeding down the highway, headlights off, All Jessica could think of was how she would feel if Claudia was dead. If she could never tell the other girl how she felt. She shuddered. No. That could not happen. They would find them, alive. She glanced over at Helena and sighed. The older woman was asleep, though the worry was still set in her face. How would Helena cope if the woman who had saved her, brought her back from the brink of insanity, was dead? She shook her head. Helena had told her the story of what she had almost done, how she had almost ended the world, and how Myka had saved her. It was the most beautifully tragic story Jessica had ever heard. But what if it was over for good now? She shook her head again, trying to clear it. She glanced up at the familiar sign, informing them of Loveland's city limits. Jessica slowed and put her lights on. This was a popular speed trap area. She reached over and gently shook Helena's shoulder.
"We're almost here." she murmured softly to the groggy woman. Helena blinked herself awake.
"Thank you love." she said, streaching as much as she could in the cramped seat of the kia rio. Jessica nodded, her face tight. This place brought back a lot of memories, not all of which were good. Helena put a hand over hers.
"We'll find them." she said, trying to sound more confident than she felt. Jessica nodded.
"I just hope its in time." she said tightlyl. Helena fell silent and leaned back in her seat. She drove them to the Holiday Inn just past the walmart and parked. She glanced at the time. Just after 1am.
"We can get some sleep before we start investigating." she informed H.G. heaving herslef outof the car. Her muscles protested after 2 hours of not being used. She streached her back and tehn grabbed the bags out of the car. Helena followed her into the building, yawning sleepily.
"Hello, I have a reservation under Jessica Weisfelt." she informed teh woman behind the desk. She smiled at her.
"Yes, ofcourse Miss Weisfelt. Room 218." The receptionist handed her the key-card and Helena and Jessica quickly made thier way up to the room, both exhausted. After putting on pajamas they quickly crawled into bed and fell into a restless sleep.
Myka leaned back against Claudia.
"Starting to think theyre not coming." she whispered, exhausted. Claudia shook her head.
"they'll be here." she whispered back, equally exhasted. Myka nodded and dropped her head down on Claudia;s shoulder.
"I hope so." she sighed.
