This one is coming a little later than planned. Apologies for that. Things are still up and down on my end here. We're finally getting to a point in this story I've been waiting to get to since the very beginning.
The mask is somewhat off. Dan and Sarah have discovered some horrible truths. These characters have been a lot of fun to write and sometimes they've surprised me with where they've gone and how they've deviated from my original plan.
Well, lets get to the good stuff, shall we? This is an alpha draft, so like always its full of grammatical issues and other uglies that I'll clean up in the next week or so.

āWhat the fuck?ā Dan blinked staring at Lesterās outstretched phone screen. His brain took a few seconds to register what he was seeing. Sarah, Lester and himself on the screen. Danās face felt red hot looking at how pathetic he was sitting in Lesterās chair. āWhat the fuck?ā Dan repeated trying to break himself out of his mental loop.
Lester chuckled and pulled the phone away as Sarah tried to reach for it. He casually strolled back into the living room, leaving Dan and Sarah standing at the open door. They stood frozen in place for what felt like an enternity as their brains tried to fit the pieces together. Lester slumped back in one of the chairs, compeltely disregarding them, eyes down on his phone.
They had been so close. Danās foot had almost been across the threshold, leaving the apartment for good. But now he hovering at the door with Sarah at his side.
āWhat the hell. Delete that,ā Sarah hissed taking a step into the living room. Danās stomach twisted and the image of a bear trap jumped into his mind. āLester, are you listening to me?ā
Lester just thumbed his phone like he hadnāt heard her. There was a noise in the hallway. They could be discovered. Dan couldnāt bear to glance for the noise and reluctant shut the door, engaging the lock. He saw a smart smile flash across Lesterās face as he did before it quickly disapperaed.
