Chapter 212 - Double Date

That pained him a little because he just wanted her to stay safe, but she survived just fine without him for a long time.

She kept herself together, watched out for herself, and made something of herself. He would never deny her intellect and determination, and he knew that she would use it to survive if danger came her way.

He just wanted to give her more of a fighting chance against the supernatural, which did not play fair.

"Fine. You can come with me, but you stay right by my side," he told her sternly. He needed her to stay close just in case.

Alyssa perked up and jumped to her feet to follow him out of the RV. She placed her hand on his back, moving with him as they approached the motel, which looked a lot like the last one. Not much creativity was put into their designs.

"Do you see anything weird?" she asked him.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

Elias smirked and glanced at her.

"Not yet," he said before venturing closer to the office. He looked up and down the street, not seeing any cars approaching with their lights turned off or anything else strange along those lines.

He believed that they were in the clear for now. "Let's get checked in."

Alyssa took his hand, letting him lead her into the office so that they could get three rooms for the night.

Elias fought multiple yawns as he grabbed the motel room keys. He had been up for way too long, but at least they could all rest now.

When he left the office, the others were waiting for him outside of the RV. He handed Scott and Melina a room key.

"Let's get some rest. Mel, we can find a place to practice tomorrow," he told her. He wanted to take advantage of them being in town to practice.

Melina smiled and nodded, but she didn't dart off to the motel room just yet.

"I was also thinking that maybe we could go on a double date or something," she suggested.

Elias looked at Melina and Tyler with a small smile.

"Well, I guess we'll do that dinner date around six o'clock tomorrow. We still have to train," he told Melina.

He didn't see a grassy area for them to practice at like last time, but he was sure that they could find something.

If he was going to be messing with fire, he didn't want to be around anything that he could catch on fire.

"We will. Bring it tomorrow," Melina told him firmly.

"Always," Elias replied as he glanced at Alyssa with a smile. With her by his side, he would always give a hundred percent.

He wanted to try to push himself even further tomorrow since he wouldn't be stuck in an RV. Practicing his fire abilities had to be very contained in there.

Melina gave Tyler's hand a squeeze.

"I can't wait for tomorrow night. We haven't been on a date in forever," she told him excitedly.

"Doesn't mean we're not romantic," Tyler smirked before suddenly picking her up bridal style. He nodded a goodbye to Elias and Alyssa before carrying Melina to their shared room.

"They're cute together," Alyssa said as she watched them walk off with a smile on her face.

"Not as cute as us," Elias replied, shooting her a wink before putting his arm around her shoulders. He led her to their shared room, holding her close to his side.

He wasn't sure how the double date was going to go tomorrow, but he knew that spending quality time with those closest to him was important.

He didn't know how much time that they all had left, even if that was a morbid thought. It was the truth, which would always be daunting to face.

Once Elias shut the door behind them, Alyssa lifted up on her toes to press a kiss against his lips.

"I can't wait for the date, but I wouldn't mind spending some alone time with you tonight," Alyssa told him, lifting an eyebrow at him suggestively.

Elias smirked and easily picked her up to toss her onto the bed. He crawled over her, pinning her down to the mattress. In the privacy of their motel room, he could let his worries fade away.

He could ignore the danger that could possibly be right outside.. With Alyssa, he was in a whole different world, one that he hoped to live in after all of this was finally over.
