About 46 hours into her drive, Bella had almost made it to her aunt's house, but she still had another hour to go. Deciding that sleep was necessary, she stopped at the next cheap motel she came across with the name, Vacant Motel. Hope that sign is not a sign... she thought as she pulled in front of the small little motel.
She slowly walked up to the man at the front desk who had his back to her. She noticed that in one hand he was armed with a fly swatter, and in the other, a can of BugBGone. She saw something fly past his head and he turned around abruptly to swat it, but stopped himself before swatting Bella in the face. He was all of a sudden frozen with a shocked look on his face and the fly swatter still shaking in her face. He jumped back and simply tossed the two items over his shoulders, asking in a foreign accent, "How can I help you ma'am?"
Completely trying to ignore the fact she was almost maced in the face by a can of BugBGone and assaulted with a fly swatter, Bella shook her head slowly making her way back to reality. "Yes, uh, I'd like a room for the night please."
"I will see if there are any vacant this morning," he says as he looks over at his computer to check for a room.
Glancing down at his hairy arm, she noticed a watch. Silver plated maybe? "Uh, excuse me, sir?"
"Yes, mJake?" he asked inquizitively.
"Is that silver or gold plated?" she asks as her voice cracks a little bit.
"White gold, ma'am," he says with a half smile on his face.
Jake liked watches. Just like Bella, he preferred white gold or silver over yellow gold. They both agreed it looked like the piss of a very dehydrated man, therefore, the thought of yellow gold always disgusted her. She felt a knot tie in her throat as she started to think of him... losing him... to her. The man found her a room and gave her the extremely outrageous price for the room along with the key. The room was definitely over priced for something that had stains on the wall and a creaking door. Bella thought to herself, "I don't even think this place has been cleaned since the last people to stay here... or the ones before that. Eww... a roach just crawled into the bullet hole in the wall. That blood stain around it looks pretty gruesome... hope it wasn't too recent."
She even noticed the sheets had not been changed since the last couple because of the wrinkledness and the filled condoms... of two sizes. "Just gonna assume it was a gay couple," she thought. The far corner of the room appeared dark and she couldn't quite make out the figure in the far corner of the room. Quickly deciding that the 50 bucks was not worth it, she sleept out in her car for the night.
Waking up to the sound of two cats fighting on the hood of her car, she decided to carry on with her roadtrip. Stopping at the MiniMart right down the road, she grabbed a cup of coffee and two doughnuts before filling up her car and making her way down the interstate. She was so close. She could feel the shivers of anticipation running down her spine. Not even 4 hours later, she was parking in the main parking lot of FU. Making her way into the registrars office, she held her head high. She was ready to start over and be unknown.
