CHAPTER FOURTY-FIVE ( waiting on a miracle )
WHEN they head back to the house, she realized that Erica was chased a far enough distance away to have taken them a little bit to get back. Something about that didn't feel right, a really bad feeling started to stir in her gut. Then, she heard a gunshot being fired nearby, and she and Erica both raced as fast as they could to get back to the Creel House.
When they made it inside, her ears picked up on commotion going on upstairs. She quickly grabbed Erica's shoulders, "I need you to stay down here, okay? I don't know what's going on upstairs but I need you safe, okay? Do not come up there unless me, Lucas, or Max call for you, got it?"
Erica nods shortly, her eyes wide. "Copy that, Luna. Thank you for the help back there."
She throws her arms around her and Luna hugs her back, "No problem, kiddo. Now, be careful. Yell if you need anything." Erica nods again, then Luna spins on her heel and rushes up the stairs of the house.
She gets to the steps of the attic and the sounds of commotion gets louder, and when she gets to the threshold her eyes grow huge as she pulls at the door and finds it to be locked. "Fuck!" The bad feeling festering in her gut grows stronger, and her anxiety goes rampant as she bangs on the door.
"Lucas!" She bangs on the door over and over, but Lucas doesn't answer and the rustling and crashing in the room increases along with someone's groans of pain. "Goddamnit! Lucas! Open the door!"
This was Jason, it had to be. His fucking meathead friend chases Erica halfway through the neighborhood to distract her, and in turn he distracted Luna, too. And then Jason, that slimy little fuck. She bets that he snook past and got into the house once she left her post. This was him, her sister was gonna fucking die because of him! If Lucas didn't get those headphones onto her, she was done for. But if she can't get in then she can help him!
