!Mention of abuse! chap 6, News Papers NORTH DENVER

We dug for what felt like hours. We took turns digging then walking the dirt to the toilet and flushing all the dirt down the toilet

"Finney im soo tired" I said dragging the o is so. My head was pounding and there were cuts all over my fingers from digging for so long.

"Ok then. This is enough anyway." Finney said jumping out the hole that was now hip deep. He grabbed a carpet the was in the corner of the hallway and used it to cover the hole. We then drank and cleaned our hands with the toilet water before laying in bed.

Finney asked if we can cuddle because he was cold, i of course said yes so there we were his head on my chest and his arms around my waist and my arms around his shoulders. We fell asleep very easy because we were tired and we were warm in each others arms.

The next day when we woke up we were now needing food more then ever. We had a few conversations but we ran out of things to talk about so that just left us in out thoughts.

Finney was staring at the phone as well as bitting his nails. I was laying on my stomach right next to him. I was now noticing that all of The Grabbers victums were my friends. My eyebrows scrunched up as i relized

"Holy shit" I say looking up at Finney, sitting up next to him

"What?" Finney looks at me.

"I was friends with all of them"

"with who?"

"The Grabbers victums."

"and? Your friends with literally everyone"

"I guess" I said and looked away from Finney swallowed back into my thoughts.

"Lilly dont over think it" Finney said grabbing my chin and turning my head to face him. My stomach exploding with butterflies.

"But-" I started but Finney coverd my mouth with his hand.

"shhhh" Finney said. I smirked and licked his hand. "ewww" he said as he wiped his hands on his jeans. I start to laugh as he just smiles.

Finney goes back to staring at the phone. I lay my head on his shoulder decided to just stare at the phone to.

After a few seconds we start to hear the door squeak open. We both scramble to our feet and run to the wall farthest from the door. The Grabber walks in. He had his full mask on and a tray with 2 plates of food and some soda.

"I made you some breakfast" The Grabber says

"What did u put in that" Finney asked quickly. The grabber looks down at the food then back up at us.

"Salt and Pepper" The Grabber laughed and set the tray down on the ground. "oh, eat it dont eat" He stood straight up as he continued "your already down here what do i need to drug you for?" the grabber finished. The grabber turned around and walked out of the door. I waited to hear that fimilar click. But i didn't.

I look over at Finney as he made his way quietly to the door. He put his hand on the handle and started to pull. He had pulled open the door about half way when the phone started ringing, I jumped at the sudden sound as we both quickly tuned to the phone. Finney closed the door slightly and made his way to the phone, me following. Finney picked up the phone and put it inbetween us.

"Hello?" Finney asked

"Dont go upstairs " A boy said, it didn't sound like Bruce. Finney turned to look at the door
