Caroline decided not to question what he had done, or if he was serious about teleporting. Her head was already swimming with all of the events of the day that she didn't want to add more information to her plate besides what the hell was in her house. Her family all lived in Georgia, and Samantha was out of town. She was completely out of options, but she wasn't ready to make her choice yet.

“Well, before I make any reservations at Hotel Blackgate,” she began as she walked out of the room to the kitchen, “maybe we can talk about what that unpronounceable name on the folder means.” She pulled out two wine glasses from a cabinet, but not without climbing up on the counter to reach them. At 5’4”, plenty of the things in the apartment were simply inaccessible to her. Keith was 6’2” and often was the one to grab most of the items she needed in hard to reach places. “Do you like red wine?” she asked, not looking up at the man, and pulled out a bottle from one of the lower cabinets. Without waiting for a response, she popped out the cork and began to fill each delicate wine glass.
 
Caroline reached her arm over to the bar stools as to offer a seat as she took one for herself. She reached for a drawer arms-length away and pulled out a joint. “You don’t mind, do you?” She lit it slowly, taking her time, and took a large inhale of the intricately rolled indica. She blew it out one side of her mouth to avoid blowing it all over Blackgate. “I think I’m ready to talk about this all means. What’s been happening to me.” She took another hit of the joint and exhaled again. “Will it follow me where I go?”

The thought of staying at Blackgate’s made her feel uneasy. She had just met the man, but at the same time, he would probably be the only to keep her from experiencing the increasing activity going on around her. She had never had a problem with being by herself until recently, and now being alone was a frightening concept. “If I do stay at your place, I will warn you, I’ve been waking up… screaming. Night terrors. It’s a bit embarrassing,” she said as her cheeks flushed. She didn’t like feeling this helpless.
