hole in one - h.s.

Chapter 7

The next morning when I got to work I felt a piercing headache beginning to come in. I took a deep breath and walked down to the golfers quarters to get my stuff hoping not to have to do much work. When I walked in I saw Harry standing around with his golf equipment.

"Hi. I was waiting for you." He said turning around.

"Ugh why'd you give me so much work to do today." I said looking down at my clipboard.

"Just do it later."

"Are you sure?"

"Hmm mm. Listen my sister and her husband are coming into town tomorrow and wanted to see the course so I told them I'd take them I would. Are you going to be our caddie?" Harry said smiling while walking towards me then grabbing my hips. I knew he was joking and started to laugh.

"Why, you can't handle it yourself?" I said joking.

"I'm kidding I'm kidding, but come on My brother in law is such a snob I don't know how much I'm going to be able to take, you have to come with me."

"Fine. You're lucky I just want to get out of work." I said kissing him and walking out.

I walked to my golf cart with my clipboard and decided to finish what I could today considering I wouldn't be able to do it tomorrow.

At about 2:30 I decided to take the rest of the day off and texted Harry to let him know. Surprisingly I sat in traffic for about an hour getting home at 3:45. When I got home I checked my phone and saw I had a missed call from Harry. When I got in the door I threw myself down on the couch and texted him.

You called?

As I waited for him to reply I saw Aubree walk around the corner.

"Oh hey what are you doing home?" She said putting her cup in the sink.

"I could ask the same to you."

"I felt sick so I just stayed home."

"Oh, well I took off early because I felt like it." I said as we both laughed.

"Alright well I'm taking a nap because I feel like death so.. bye."

"Goodnight." I said in reply giggling.

Just as Aubree was walking up the stairs I felt my phone buzz and looked down to see Harry calling me.

"Hi."

"Can I come see you." He said after hesitating.

"Yea alright."

"I'll be there soon." He said hanging up.

I laid back on the couch waiting for him to come before soon enough heard a knock at my door.

"Woah what happened." I said as I noticed Harry looking terrible. He leaned over and put his hand on the doorframe to hold himself up.

"O- Okay come here." I said guiding him over to the couch. I sat him down on the couch and he immediately started leaning towards me and touching me .

"Ads-"

"Wo- Harry- What are you- Stop!" I yelled pushing him back.

"Are you drunk..." I finally said after staying silent for a few minutes.

"I had a few drinks." He said slurring.

"And you.. drove here?" He didn't say anything back.

I got up and fixed him a glass of water. When he was done I just sat there looking at him while he closed his eyes. Finally I stood up and grabbed his hand dragging him to my room. I let him lay down on the bed and it seemed like almost instantly he fell asleep.

For the rest of the night I sat around mostly just flipping through channels on tv while Harry slept. At about 10 I walked into my room to check on Harry. I walked over to the side of the bed and sat down looking at him peacefully sleeping. I pulled the covers back and laid down closing my eyes trying to get whatever sleep I could trying not to think about anything else.
