I must have fallen asleep, because when I opened my eyes again, I was in a bed. I didn’t recognize the room, but there were wooden beams in the ceiling and bright sunlight coming from a sliding glass door that led to a balcony. Through the glass door, I could see trees everywhere.

“Shi! Colt!” I heard Creed yell from somewhere.

Someone groaned and I rolled over, finding Colt asleep in the bed next to me. Just as I was about to sit up, the door to the room burst open and Creed stormed in.

“Why haven’t you been answering your phone?!” Creed yelled, startling Colt awake.

“What?” he said, sitting up.

“What the fuck, bro?!” Creed roared.

Colt grabbed his phone off the nightstand and cursed. “It’s dead.”

Events from last night started coming back to me. “What happened? Where are Knox and Keelan?”

“That’s why I’ve been trying to call you,” Creed said, and he got this sullen look on his face. “Keelan’s in the hospital.”

To be continued.
