Death By Chocolate  

Driving until my eyes wouldn’t stay open I stopped at a motel for the night. Entering my room I tried to settle in but I couldn’t shake that uneasy feeling that I was being watched.

I checked then rechecked the lock, the deadbolt. No one was getting into my room.

In my rush to leave I hadn’t eaten so I ordered something chocolate, my cure for anything.

“Room Service!” was muffled by the thickness of the door. Through the peep hole I saw the eye.  No more chocolate pie for me I thought as the door crashed to the floor.

I used to travel on my own all the time for work and room service was something I never used because of the fear I had about who would turn up, now you've reinforced that all the more thanks :)

This brings back the few scary movies I've seen in my life.

I just want to keep looking over my shoulder.
