Thanks so much for the review! I corrected my sloppy mistake. At first I was like 'what are they talking about?' then I went back and read it. I have no clue why I did that lol! Like I said I corrected it and here's the second chapter! Please read and review!
Chapter 2
Lynn slowly came too and opened her eyes. It was dark in the room, the only light was from the opened windows. A cool breeze flowed through the room as she sat up and ran her hands through her hair. It was dark outside and she could hear music from the street below. She got up and walked over to stand next to the window. There was some kind of celebration going on. Music was blaring and people were dancing.
"Hungry?"
She recognized the voice. It was the man in the cowboy hat that saved her life. "Who are you?" she stared at the street below for a few seconds then turned to face him in the corner. He wasn't wearing the hat anymore but he was still wearing the sunglasses. 'Why is he wearing sunglasses at night' she wondered.
"If you want to change, your stuff's next to the bed and the shower's right over there, " he pointed to the bathroom.
She looked at her bag next to the bed and looked back at him. "Thank you, " she said quietly. She walked over to the bag and put it up on the bed. "Who are you?" she asked again curiously as she looked through her bag.
"You tell me your name I'll tell you mine, " he said with a small smile.
She narrowed her eyes at him, "Why do I get the impression you already know mine?" It was more of a statement than a question.
His smile widened a little as he pulled out some papers and tobacco and started to roll himself a cigarette. "Lynn...that's such a simple name, " he said lowly.
She shrugged, "I like things simple...life is more pleasing that way."
He laughed briefly, "It's amazing what it takes to make a person realize that."
He sounded like he was speaking from experience. He finished rolling his cigarette and lit it then stood and walked to the other side of the bed and faced her.
"Well, " she said.
"Well what?" he asked.
"What's your name?" she asked folding her arms over her chest.
He tilted his head, "It's probably better if you don't know sugarbutts."
"I already know your friends name, " she said automatically. Dammit Lynn, your bluntful nature is going to get you in trouble one of these days she berated herself.
"Lucas..." he started. "...Lucas is not as, notorious as I am."
Notorious...that can't be good she thought. "What did you do with Vickie?" she asked quietly.
"Lucas took her body to the nearest police station and told them what happened, with a few differences, " he explained.
"What do you mean?" she asked worriedly.
"I didn't see any need to include you or myself into the story, " he said as if it were a normal everyday thing. When she didn't respond he smiled lightly. "There was no need for anyone to know you were there darlin. What's done is done. If anyone asks, your friend dropped you off in the nearest town to go shopping while she went sight seeing. She was supposed to meet you back at the motel, you had not checked into yet, but she never showed, now..." he walked back to the bed and reached for the phone on the dresser. "...you call the police and report her missing, since it's been twenty four hours, and they tell you the bad news, savvy?"
She stared at him as if he were insane. "Oh my God...I can't believe this is happening..." She slumped onto the bed and buried her face in her hands. She heard him put the phone down and felt the bed stoop a little.
"Why don't you take a shower, get into some clean clothes and you can figure out what to do then, okay?" he offered.
She looked over her shoulder and seen he was sitting with his back to her. She sighed and grabbed her bag up and made her way to the bathroom, slamming the door loudly.
"Believe me darlin'...it's better this way, " he whispered to an empty room.
This was a very hard story to write lol! It's hard to writ someone that can't see. So this was quit the challenge for me.
