Against All Odds (spin-off of The Three Queen Bees and Me)

Chapter 67- Into the Lion's Den

    The next morning I wake up with a awful head ache. Maybe drinking yesterday was not the best way to deal with my issues.

   Reaching over I put on my glasses adjusting them on my nose before checking my phone.

  There is fourteen miss calls from Camila making me furrow my eyes brows in worry.

    Instead of texting her I dial her number only to be sent to her voice mail. I swear if I am sent to one more person voice mail I might just flip.

   Not being able to reach Camila I try Evelyn's number only for it to go voicemail. Okay something is way off here.

  Boss's words kept playing in my head over and over. Those two didn't actually try anything did they?

   Growing more and more worried I try to call Karin who thankfully picks up.

  "It's the weekend what do you want?" Karin asks yawning through the phone.

  "I know it's early but have you heard from Evelyn?" I ask trying to hide the panic in my voice not wanting to assume the worse.

  "Not since she left my house yesterday." He tells me as I hear Bennett yelling in background for him to go back to sleep.

    "Shut up this is important." Karin yell back at his boyfriend.

   "Sorry about that he is not a morning person." Karin apologizes for Bennet.

  "It's fine I am going to get off here and see if anyone else knows where they may be at." I say about to hang up when he asks me if I need any help.

   Weighing my options it would be a better idea to have someone that knows Evelyn better than she knows herself.

   "Yes I will meet you at Ground Cafe." I tell him hanging up as I grab my favorite blue hoodie.

   "Should we really go on a wild goose chase for those two?" Bennet asks not pleased to be dragged out of his bed.

   "I told you I need help. If you behave I will reward you later." Karin comments smirking making me want to throw up my latte.

   "Back on track.. what are some places they would go?" I ask the two boys who shrug their shoulders at me.

    Men how useful they are I sarcastically state.

   We spend some time at the cafe trying come up with locations when the two love birds enter the cafe.

    "What the hell! You made it sound like they were kidnapped!" Karin shouts drawing attention to our table.

   I tell him seat his ass down as both Camila and Evelyn make their way to our table.

   I stare at the two noticing how both Camila's long blonde hair and Evelyn's long brunette hair looks tousled.

   "Seriously?" Is all I ask after being worried about the two half the day.

    "We didn't have no cell service. We went for a lovely hike.." Evelyn says lying through her teeth. We all know the girl couldn't lie to save her own life.

   "Please tell me where you went I would love to try this 'hike' with Bennet." Karin remarks a smirk forming on his face.

  Evelyn becomes as red as my hair while Camila boasts about their latest adventure.

  "I can't hear anymore." I plead with the two girls causing all of us to laugh.

     We are having a grand time when Matt approaches us. His curly sandy hair needs a cut is all I could think as he looks at all of us.
