Chapter Text
“Hi Sammy I just got off the phone with Dan he will meet you both in the hotel reception in the morning” Sam nodded as he stood by the hotel entrance with some bags “great dad thanks for letting me know. Me and Beth landed about an hour ago so were just going to settle in tonight, Beth wants to clean her gun and I’ll do some research then we will start in the morning” John sighed obviously frustrated “FINE! I guess diving in head first was never your style! Look just make sure you both get home safe, me and Dean are going to help Bobby with some vamps out in New York and for god’s sake don’t use Beth as bait again!” Sam sighed and hung up as Beth walked over “what took so long” Beth smiled “well I overheard staff talking about a room next floor up no one will go in it they say its haunted, think we have two hunts here” Sam rolled his eyes shaking his head slightly “you never stop do you, just like dad” Beth smiled as she flicked her long blond hair over her shoulder “of course I do little brother, I’m just good at the job” Sam shook his head laughing slightly as they both picked up their bags and walked towards the elevators. Sam hit the button to call the lift and turned to Beth “so what do you want to do?” Beth shrugged “see what we can find out about the room then go ghost hunting” Sam smiled at her as the doors for the lift opened he turned to step in when he heard a girl yelling “get away from me” Beth and Sam both turned to see what was happening, a young woman turned to a well-dressed man in a suit behind reception “please keep your voice down” the young woman waved her hands frantically “no okay I quit, I went to room 116 to clean it next thing I know I’m choking and look at my neck I don’t know what sort of sick joke this is but it’s not worth it” Beth smiled as she looked at Sam “see I told you Sammy something IS going on here, see what you can get out of them I’ll go talk to her” Beth handed Sam her bag then rushed out of the hotel after the young woman. Beth looked around outside the hotel and saw the young woman walking down the street “hey wait I have to talk to you” she rushed down the street catching up with her “you’re the girl from the hotel right the one who just quit” she stopped and turned to Beth “yea I am come to call me a freak?” Beth shook her head “god no, I actually believe you. Can we talk?” she moved her brunet fringe out of her eyes as she wiped away a few tears and nodded her head “I’m Cindy” Beth smiled at her “Beth, do you want to go get a coffee?” Cindy shook her head “beer please theirs a bar down the street here” they walked down to the bar in silence.
Beth looked up at the sign reading Red Lion, they walked in and Beth looked around it wasn’t too busy and she managed to find an empty booth away from people she could go sit in as they walked over to the bar she noticed a tall mysterious man stood in the corner look over at her, she looked at him from the corner of her eyes intrigued “what can I get you” Beth snapped back to reality and smiled “I’ll buy Cindy what do you want?” Cindy looked up at the man behind the bar “pint of larger please” Beth looked at Cindy a little confused “is that beer?” Cindy smiled and nodded “yea kind of, you’re from the states right?” Beth nodded as the bar man put the pint on the counter “I’ll have another larger please” Beth pulled some money out of her jeans pocket and handed it to the bar man then picked up her pint and headed to the empty booth, she sat down and couldn't help but look to the mysterious man again, he was looking right at her, after a minuet she pulled her gaze away and looked at Cindy “so what happened in that room” Cindy took a long drink of her large then looked up “I was sent to clean the suicide room” Beth looked up from her drink more than just intrigued “suicide room?” Cindy nodded “yea a young woman a couple of years ago hung herself in their she had caught her husband cheating on her he had a whole double life and she went home one night and shot him, she thought she had killed him come back to the hotel and hung herself in her room, since I first started here last month people told me rumours about that room" she paused feeling like she was going crazy "if you ever cheated and go in that room you get a choking sensation. I never believed them who would it sounds crazy right, I mean my mum knew the woman said she saved her life once from a speeding car she was at the funeral” Beth shook her head “poor woman… wait you were choked” Cindy nodded “yea I cheated on someone once I was drunk when I did it, but that’s no excuse” she took another drink of her larger almost finishing it as Beth shrugged “I’m not judging you… you mentioned your neck in the hotel mind if I see it?” Cindy moved her long brunet hair showing what looked like bruises from a rope around her neck “oh my that’s bad and you say your mum was at the burial” Cindy shook her head a little confused “no she was cremated, look thank you for the drink and the chat, it's really calmed me down but I have to go beg for my job back” Cindy got up to leave as she finished her drink “thanks for chatting to me Cindy, good luck” Beth watched as Cindy left the bar.
