CHAPTER 14

The rest of the day I was finding myself alternating between being eager to talk to Matt again while also terrified of being at work. I was out of my element being in the midst of beings that were supernatural. Instantly, all of my childhood notions regarding fact and fiction were blurred; things were no longer as they seemed. Even though at one time I probably would have been fascinated that monsters from stories were real, I couldn’t find myself anything but terrified.

I was far too quiet after speaking with Matt, unable to make conversation with Darren or Perry when the latter had come in to check how the room was coming along. Part of me felt Perry must have known I was now in on the little secret, for he looked at me expectantly. Perry never said anything; he only watched me, as if he were trying to gauge my reaction.

I couldn’t say anything to him. I had no idea what to say.

“Are you okay?” Darren finally asked a few hours later. I was only two hours from going home, so close yet so far.

It was a simple question that I didn’t have an answer for. I was most definitely not okay, but I didn’t know how to phrase it.

“How much do you know about the boy band?”

“Um…”

I shook my head. It was dumb to refer to the guys in my department as my silent nickname for them. In the comforts of my own head, I felt they resembled a boy band with their too-cool-to-care attitude. I decided to try again. I had to be careful not to say this name in front of the boys. “How much do you know about the guys we work with?”

Darren cocked a brow before pushing some of his dark hair out of his eyes. “Not that much, just what I observe when I’m around them. They’re kind of lazy and stupid in my opinion. Er, why?”

I covered my face with both hands. He wasn’t in on this. That was why the guys in my department avoided him as well. They didn’t want to converse with someone who wasn’t among them. No part of me felt I could make it through the next two hours. I felt like I was losing my mind trying to wrap my head around things. Without another word, I left the room, leaving a perplexed Darren in my wake.

I clocked out immediately after I left Darren. I didn’t inform anyone I was leaving, either. Matt saw me exit the building, but he didn’t try to stop me. As unprofessional as it was, I didn’t inform Perry that I had left work until I was all the way home in the safety of my house. After locking my front door
