It was another day before they reached San Diego. Wanda pulled the van into the city and looked around. She pulled to a stop at a red light and chewed on her lip for a moment. "Do you guys want to go straight and get a room?" She asked Mel and Jared, her blue eyes slid and looked at Mel for any sign's of her being awake. It would have made Wanda feel silly if Mel and Jared where still asleep. The light switched green and Wanda pulled forward.
She started to drive towards the beach area to find a motel on the beach. It made them all feel safer with a room that they could escape through a window or the door. Well obivously, but it made them feel better when the van was parked right outside. Stifling a yawn she pulled up to a Motel 8.

The jolt of the car stopping woke Mel up. Wanda was saying something, but all Mel caught was "--get a room?" Her first thought was that Wanda was making fun of them--Jared and Mel had ended up tangled together under the blanket--but her voice sounded like a polite question. Besides, it didn't seem like the kind of thing Wanda would say.
She looked into the backseat and Mel lifted her head up to nod, not totally positive what she was agreeing to. Probably something to do with a motel room. Sure enough, a few minutes later Wanda pulled up to a Motel 8. Mel sat up and yawned, stretching her arms out.

Jared shifted and almost feel when the car stopped. He looked up and blinked. "We're in San Diego already?" He asked, sitting up and rubbing his eyes. They pulled up to a Motel and he sighed in relief. "Finally a hotel! Wanda go get us a room." He said smiling greatly and streching.

Wanda looked shot a slight irrated look at Ian and sighed. "Okay. Let's see...we'll be from the...Flowers this time." She muttered and shut down the ignition and slipped out. She walked in and took a deep breath before smiling at the person behind the desk. "I'm Gazing Skyward. I'd like to rent a room for at least a week. Me and my collegues are here on vacation. Is there one avaliable?" Wanda asked the souls polietly.
"Hello Gazing Skyward. Yes there is one avalibalbe. It must be nice to come on vacation." The soul said kindly before adding something into the computer before Wanda nodded smiling. "Where are you visiting from?"
"Pheonix. It's a nice change from the hot climate." Wanda explained before she recieved the card key. "Thank you and have a nice day." Wanda said with a smile before turning and walking back out the door. She popped open the side of the van. The side away from the soul at the motel.

"Okay. Let's see...we'll be from the...Flowers this time." Mel watched with mild interest as Wanda left the car. Once she had entered the nearby building, Mel turned to Jared. "I call being a blue flower." He, of course, wouldn't care and might not even know what she was talking about.
Pulling the blanket off Jared, she rolled it into a ball and set it at her feet, then began brushing of her pants, until Wanda opened her door. "Are we all checked in and ready? Mel asked.

Jared looked at Mel and raised his eyebrow. "I'd think you're more of a tan flower." He said not getting the joke. He jumped out of the van and stretched before looking around for any Seekers. He leaned against the van and let out a yawn before excusing himself. During raids he had to act polite when they were around other souls.

Wanda nodded and pointed to the door before handing Mel the room key. "I'll just bring in the blankets." She murmmered before stepping into the van and grabbing the two blankets and tucking the flashlight under the seat. Jumping out she shut the van door and walked calmly towards the door. "Want to place this in the room and go grab some food from the convience store?" She asked the other two as she adjusted the blankets so they where positioned on her hip.
Stifling a yawn, she ran her hand through her blonde hair. There where slight bags under her eyes andd she resisted the urge to close her eyes as they felt heavy.

"I'd think you're more of a tan flower." Mel smiled and rolled her eyes. She might of explained it had they still been in the car, but here it would have seemed strange if anyone was listening.
Mel took the card key from Wanda, checking the number on it: 313--they were on the third floor. To Wanda's question, she said, "Sounds good to me." However, when she actually looked up to see her yawning and the darkness under her eyes, Mel reevaluated. "Actually, maybe you should take a nap first.
Mel bit her lip, debated whether or not to say what she was thinking. Jared would probably freak out, and Wanda might be against it too...she might as well mention though. "You know," Mel began, with a side glance at Jared. She kept her voice low. "I could do the shopping."

Jared burst into the Motel and jumped and landed head first on the bed and rubbed his cheek into the matress. "Much better." He muttered before his eyes shut and a soft snore emitted from him. Tightened his fingers around the sheets and he shifted around so he was laying on his back.

Wanda shook her head at Melanie's suggestion. Lowering her voice she placed the blankets down. "I'll come with you." She said standing up and heard Jared snoring. "It's just three T.V dinners and some drinks." She said before heading towards the door. "We'll be back before he wakes up." SHe explained and scratched her neck making her hair bounce.
Looking quickly outside she opened the door and headed for the closest exit and the one closest to the van.
