+ Audrey's Point of View +

It was finally friday, and thank god for that!

I made it through the big history test and got a B+, it went pretty well for Jaclyn too... But how it went for Irini? Hm, she didn't want to talk about it, but I heard Mr.Walker say that she'd have to do the test again if she didn't want to quit school with a big fat F.

Even though it was friday and I was pretty happy about it, I was a bit determined. My parents were going away and wouldn't be home until tomorrow, so I was left at home with my three year old sister, which means that I wouldn't be able to go out with my friends since I had to babysit.

Ugh.

Don't get me wrong, - I loved my sister, but babysit on a friday night...? Nahh, that wasn't really my thing.

"Bye kids! Have fun", my father said and kissed my forhead. 

Fun... Yeah, sure.

"You too", I smiled.

When they had left the house I looked down at my sister who sat on the floor, playing with her dolls. She was just sitting there, in her own little pink bubble. But I didn't mind. I didn't want to be in it anyways. What I wanted was to hang out with Jaclyn and Irini. Like, go shopping or go to the cinema or just hang out like we usually did a friday night.

But now I was stuck here, in my house, all alone with Hailee.

"I'm going to watch a movie", I murmured and went to the living room.

"Teletubbies!", Hailee shouted, and I shoke my head.

"No, not teletubbies. You're always watching that tubbie-movie."

"Teletubbies, teletubbies, teletubbies!", she screamed angrily. I gave up and let out a small sigh. Hearing her scream about that movie all night? No thank you.

"Okey, let's watch teletubbies then."

The movie was finally over! I didn't watch that much of it, I just sat there, texting with my friends and checking facebook. While I started another childish movie for Hailee, I asked her about dinner. Mom had left us some money to buy pizza, and I thought that pizza was a pretty good idea since I didn't really have the urge to cook something.

I went to the kitchen and called for pizza delivery, and when I ended the conversation, my phone started buzzing.

"Hello?", I said as I answered.

"Hi Audrey! It's Jacky", Jaclyn said. "I know that you're babysitting your sister, but I just wondered if Irini and I could come over? We could have a sleepover?"

I thought about it for a second. My parents wouldn't mind if my friends came to me, right? I was still watching my sister, wasn't I? My friends were just going to help me a bit and keep me company?

"Sounds great! I just ordered pizza. When will you be over?"

"Pizza? Yummy! Uhm, twenty minutes?"

"Perfect! See yah later!" I clicked on 'end call' and went out to the living room again. Hailee was still watching the movie while playing with her toys, and since she didn't seem to care about my presence I decided to go and play some piano.

"Hellooo! We're home!", Jaclyn shouted as she entered the door. Irini was right behind her, carrying on a big bag full of candy, soda, chips and other stuff. 

"Hello!" I smiled and gave both of them a hug.

"Where's HaiHai?"

"She's in the living room, watching a movie", I shrugged, a bit bored.

"Oh okey", Jaclyn said and sniffed in the air. "I smell pizza? You didn't start eating without us, did you?"

"No, of course not. Now come inside, I'm hungry."

Hailee was asleep, and Jaclyn, Irini and I had been up for hours, talking about the guys in our class, hot boys in school and hot celebs. Irini really had a thing for Justin Bieber, but Jaclyn and I? ... Naahh.

"Maybe we should go to bed." Jaclyn yawned.

"Maybe you're right", Irini said and took another candy.

"How can you keep on eating? I'm full", I sighed as I patted my stomach.

"Please, Audrey. You can never get enough of candy?" Irini rolled her eyes dramatically and then laughed. "Just kidding. I can't stop eating. It's too delicious!"

"Goodnight Irini." I burried my face under the cushions. Jaclyn reached out for the controllers and turned off the TV.

"Come on, let's go to sleep."

I sat up in bed, shaking. I'd been having a nightmare. But this time it all felt so real. In my dream I was watching a movie while eating candy, just like we did last night. But then one of those monsters came and... Ugh, no. I couldn't even think about it.

But it was just a dream. Jaclyn and Irini was sleeping like two babies, and so was Hailee, I guess. She wasn't screaming anyways. And she didn't eat any candy, and I probably had the bad dream since I ate so much sugar.

Suddenly, I felt very thirsty so I decided to go and drink some water. When I entered the kitchen, I didn't really feel for turning the lights on since that would make me blind. I felt so sleepy, it was like I hadn't been sleeping at all. But oh well, I had a few more hours 'til Hailee would wake up...

Why did little kiddos have to be morning persons? Did I used to be a morning person when I were little?

When I reached out for a glass on the shelf, I hesitated for a moment. It felt like somebody was watching me... But when I turned around, no one was there.

I didn't like the feeling though. A normal person would just be seen as paranoid, but I knew that I wasn't alone. And since both Hailee, Jaclyn and Irini was sleeping, it had to be...

A monster.
