Liam started to fall asleep.

[ojoku]

Jessica glanced over to see Liam slowly falling asleep. Her body tensed for a second. She had a strong urge to just jump up and dart out the door. The darkness was calling to her, begging her to explore. Even if she lost her will when she got out there, it'd give her a chance to actually let her tears go. But should she? What if her friend woke up and saw that she'd disobeyed him? That could spell trouble. He was kind of taking care of her, seeing as she was under eighteen, and might get mad that she'd disregarded him. Well, what he didn't know couldn't hurt him. She waited for the boy to finally close his eyes and let dreams take him away. Hopefully Louis would still be in the shower and she could use that gap of not being watched to go.

[ojoku]

The urge was overpowering. Jessica waited until she knew that Liam was completely asleep before easing off the bed. She was careful not to make any noise. Waking the man could have serious consequences. She bent down and gently scooped up her bag, sliding it carefully over her shoulders. The flashlight inside it would definitely be important. She slowly walked to the door, sliding out after taking one of their two room keys.

After around ten minutes, Louis hopped out of the shower and got into his old clothes. He walked out the bathroom door expecting to find three sleeping figures. Everyone was there, seeing as Liam had turned to down the offer to go to the lobby, but yet there were only two bodies. His eyes grew slightly wide as he realized Jess and her things were missing. He hurried to Liam's side and shook him in an attempt to wake him up.

Liam looked over to Louis "what-" he said in a sleepy slur.

[ojoku]

"Jess. And her things. They're gone." Louis stated quickly. He'd ignorantly missed the lack of two key cards on the TV stand.

[QUITLIKEFOURYEARSAGO]

Liam practically jumped out of bed "What!?"

[ojoku]

Louis glanced back at Mara to check on her. Maybe he should stay with her... he didn't really want her to wake up alone. "Liam, Jess has gone off somewhere. I don't know where. You need to go find her!" he urged.

[QUITLIKEFOURYEARSAGO]

Liam he nodded he grabbed his phone which had a built in flashlight "I'll text you when I find her." He headed out the door racing down the stairs not having time to wait for the elevator.

[ojoku]

Jessica heard someone coming down the stairs from where she was in the lobby. She'd been rummaging through her back to find her light and working on a plan. At first, she wasn't worried, then realized it may be a roommate of hers. In a panic she looked for somewhere to hide. No luck. She quickly sprinted out the door, leaving the bell to ding as she exited.

[QUITLIKEFOURYEARSAGO]

Liam heard the ding. This made him run faster. He ran out the door. He saw Jess running and bolted after her.
