Turning Point (A Reaching Out Novel)

Chapter Eighty-One

(a/n: Since it is the Christmas Season, I am posting two chapters today! Merry Christmas! )
Allana's Perspective
William left me and Austin to carry Harry back.
He was so grossed out with the fact that Harry threw up on him.
Even I was grossed out, I mean, I'm probably not gonna wear these clothes again, and I'll probably burn them, but William could help us with the Harry duty, I mean, Harry's asleep, Austin is strong, but he cannot carry Harry alone, I'm pregnant, and our back up is probably asleep.
" Harry, you have to try to wake up and stay up. " I said
No such luck
Why did we choose the apartment with stairs?!
" Harry. " I said
Still asleep.
" Austin, don't put him on the bed. Straight to the bathroom, okay? " I said as we were carrying Harry in the corridor leading to our room.
" Yes. " he said
We lay Harry down the bath tub.
" How are we going to clean him up? " I said
" Allana, honestly, I have no idea. " Austin said
" I still have throw up on me. " I said
" We could leave him here. " Austin said
I looked at him.
" Don't consider it though. " he continued.
" It would be better than leaving him in a pub. " I said
" No, Allana, if we didn't care about him, we should have left him in Wycombe. "
" I do care about him, and you have no choice but to care for him. "
Okay.
We have to clean Harry up.
" Austin, I need you to get Harry his clothes. Just a fresh, you know what, never mind, I'll just get it, just watch over him. " I said
" Got it. " he said
I went out to get him a fresh set of clothes.
" Okay, help me get him undressed. " I said
I was unbuttoning Harry's shirt, when I realised Austin's not helping.
" What? " I said
" Allana, it's against my protocol to get him, you know-" he said
" Really? You're not allowed to get him-"
He shook his head.
" Okay, what if it doesn't come out? I mean just the two of us, and Harry. "
" Allana, ma'am, I-"
" Fine, stay outside the door for a few minutes. " I said
" Are you sure? " he said
" It's not like you can help me. If anyone looks for us, just say that Harry and I are busy. Which we are. "
He nodded and left.
I grabbed the shower and sprayed it on Harry.
And then I realised that I should have taken his clothes off before I decided to shower him.
And then, he was just in his boxer briefs.
What if I left him in the tub to sleep?
That'll be so selfish of me.
I'll just let him sleep in his underwear.
Of course, I have to change it.
Great.

" Austin, help me with Harry. " I said as soon as he is in his fresh underwear.
" What do you need me to do? " he said
" Set him on the bed. After that, you can rest and sleep. " I said
" Thank you." He said
" Any time. "
As soon as Austin left with Harry, I took my bath.
A long one.
Seriously.
I have royal throw up on me.
Royal or not.
It's still throw up.
And it's still gross.
It's top-shelf throw up
If I knew that Harry needed to drink top-shelf, he could have just stayed here and drink, not in some pub in Wycombe, and calling me after a few hours just because he needed a ride home!
And how did he come to Wycombe?
