Chapter 16
Aubrey's POV
Sighing I slammed my textbook closed exhausted after completing my homework at last. I've been at this for nearly two hours and at long last I finished with a slight headache from reading the small print from one of textbooks. Pressing my index and middle finger against my temple I rubbed in a circular motion hoping to stop the throbbing in my head.
Leaning back into the soft garbage green sofa I mentally scolded myself for over working myself but all day I've been trying to keep my mind busy so I don't think about my secret meeting with Holden two days ago.
I'm still unsure of what to believe, those photos seemed legit as did Holden's story but than again he's Holden. Could I really trust him?
Since than I've been trying to distract myself in any way I could but it turned out hard than I first thought. The first night was horrible I spent the whole night tossing and turning as the images of Hunter invaded my mind and the guilt ate at me. So I got up and started on my homework and managed to get my lesson plan done. That's when I had my genius plan that has wiped me out although it caught me up with my school work.
"Finally your taking a break." Kelly said from the kitchen counter
With a groan I turned in her direction to see her placing a generous amount of smoked turkey on a large slice of bread.
"You've been shoving your nose in your books for a couple of days what's wrong Aubs?" she asked
"Why do you think anything is wrong?" I asked dropping my arms from my still aching head
Kelly sent me a 'seriously' look before reaching for the thinly sliced lettuce from the deli bag.
"Aubrey how long have we been friends?"
"Since middle school." I answered wondering where she was heading with this
"And through all that time have you ever been able to keep anything from me?"
"No."
"Than why the fudge brownies do you think you can now?"
Realizing that I walked into that one I released a groan hating how well my best friend can read me.
"Nothing is wrong I'm just.." I was interrupted by the buzzing of my phone
Happy for the distraction I glanced down at the new message:
Aubrey please call me I'm sorry :(
Dropping my phone onto the sofa where I hoped it would get lost between the cushions. That's the twentieth text I have gotten from Holden in the past three days, the first was the night of the meeting. From than on he just kept texting me that he's sorry and he just wants to hear from me.
It was all the same stupid messages over and over again.
"Is that Hunter?"
"Uh no just a friend texting me some notes." I lied
Kelly nodded her head causing her short dark brown hair to fall over her make up free face. She opened another deli bag and placed three slices of cheese and tomatoes onto the already over stuffed slice of bread.
"I haven't seen Hunter in a while."
Shifting uncomfortably in my seat I tried to keep calm and collected which I was anything but!
