Nick's P.O.V:
I tap my fingers on the wooden desk top as I stand by the reception and watch the hotel employee type away on her computer. I look back at Olivia and smile at her, making her smile back at me before I turn my back towards her. 

"Sir, you don't have a booking." The woman shrugs. From the corner of my eye, I see Olivia get up and make her way towards me. 

"Nick?" Olivia says. "What's wrong?" She asks. 

"They've given our hotel room away." I say, making the employee cut in. 

"Sir, your name would have come up on our system if you did book a room." The employee says, making me roll my eyes. 

"Is there available room at all?" Olivia asks.

"There might be a fe-" She starts but I cut her off. 

"No need." I say quickly. "We're not staying here." I add. 

"Nick." Olivia sighs. 

"We're not staying here." I repeat as I walk away, pulling my wife close behind me. "We shouldn't have to wait an hour for their own mistakes. Come on. We'll find another place to stay, love." I say. 

"There are no other hotels around here." Olivia says as we walk out. "I'm tired and it's raining." She sighs. "Why can't we stay here?" She asks. 

"I'll call up a friend of mine, we'll stay at his until we book a hotel room tomorrow." I say as I take out my phone. "That's if he's home-" I add, making Olivia cut in.

"I'll call up someone. She lives around here." She says as she take's my mobile phone since I changed my sim.

"Oh yeah? Who do you know around here?" I ask as she dials away.

"Rose." She shrugs and smiles up at me before she places the phone against her ear. 

Bingo!

I lean back into my seat as I watch Olivia and Rose laugh together as they eat. We've been here for the last hour now. Rose was suprised to see me but didn't say anything and greeted me like an old friend. She's even letting us stay. She's acting like nothing happened. Like she didn't kill Chris and Karla. 

She's heartless and cold. 

Rose's eyes drift away from my wife who is leaning back into her seat and controlling her laughter and looks at me. Rose and I lock eyes for what feels like forever. I expect her to look away but instead, she raises her brow and tilts her head to the side. I look away from her and around the room. 

She must have security outside her house or cameras somewhere otherwise she wouldn't be this confident around me. She knows why i'm here but hasn't really made a move to kick me out since Olivia is always there which I don't understand why because Olivia was in on it too. 

"Excuse me, I need to freshen up." Olivia stands up. 

Finally!

"Bathroom is upstairs, second one on the left hand side." Rose says. 

"Thank you." Olivia smiles. I keep my gaze fixed on Rose as Olivia stands up and walks towards me. She places her hand on my shoulders as she leans down to peck me on the lips. "Loosen up. You look like your ready to kill." Olivia whispers before she walks away.

Oh kill, I will do love.

I clear my throat as I sit up and look away from the door way and at Rose who's waiting for me to speak. I watch her as she picks up her wine glass and leans back. We stay quiet for a few seconds before she breaks the silence.
