Night 52: Pet Supply Place
[ From here.]
"Owwwww!" Carter groaned, dropping Claire's hand and clutching it to his chest. Perhaps he should have found a more subtle way of breaking the stone. When he took the ring off to relieve the pressure there was a red circle around his finger where it had crushed the skin. By tomorrow it would probably be a bruise and then everyone would know how foolish and impulsive he'd been.
This was definitely not a good way to impress a girl. Carter smiled sheepishly at his companion, still rubbing his hands. "So, uh...welcome to Doyleton."
The pet shop was still in great disarray and smelling of kitty litter, but a few lights had turned on since the last time Carter invaded the premises. Somehow the faint glow just made things creepier by highlighting the shadows, and Carter drew slightly closer to the woman with him. It was all right if she was scared, because anybody'd be scared if they were a woman out by themselves in a dark and scary place, so Carter would need to stay near and protect her.
Boy, he wished Colonel Hogan was here to tell him how to do this.
