Hunted

Chapter 12

Audra's P.O.V.

"Ugh," I groaned while lifting myself up from my bed. I looked around and noticed that it was nighttime and I wondered what the hell happened. 

I almost jumped when I heard a loud snore in my room until I noticed that Anthony had fallen asleep in a chair near my door. 

My headache seemed to be gone and I decided to get out of my work clothes and cool down with a nice cool shower. 

I threw my hair in a towel and threw some pjs on while thinking that there was no way I was going to be going to sleep tonight. 

"Hey, how are you feeling?" Anthony yawned while stretching his arms and legs out. 

"Much better," I replied while getting a brush to brush my wet hair. I took a look in my mirror and noticed that I would have to dye that one strand of hair again, and I knew that I was all out of hair dye at the moment. Maybe I could convince Grayson or Anthony to go and get me my hair dye. 

"That's good, you gave everyone quit the scare," Anthony said while getting out of the uncomfortable chair. Something sounded like it popped in Anthony's back and he said a little ow before cracking his back again. I winced at the sound while wondering how long he was actually asleep in that chair. 

The doorbell rang and we both made out way downstairs. I could smell food from the other side and quickly pushed Anthony out of the way to get to the food. 

"Grayson must have food, you are defienitely fine now," Anthony commented while rubbing his shoulder that went into the wall when I pushed him. 

"We're home," dad said when I opened the door. He gave me a big hug while Grayson tried to squeeze through with two pizza boxes. My stomach decided to growl at that point and I just realized how hungry I was. It's also been a while since I've had pizza. 

"What did you get?" I questioned while hugging Grayson from behind while he was placing the pizza boxes on the table. 

"One extra cheese and one meat lovers," he said while I quickly grabbed plates for all of us. We made tonight another movie night while eating pizza and then popcorn once again. Dad was the first to go to bed and then Grayson and Anthony passed out on the couch while I ended up staying awake the whole night.

"No sleep again," I mumbled while serving tables. I wish I could have slept last night, but that just didn't seem possible since I slept the afternoon away. Dad was out taking care of business while also doing a small grocery shopping. I was also able to ask him to pick me up my hair dye because of my one brown root growing in again. 

Anthony ended up going home early because his parents called and demanded that he be home right away while I was getting close to the end of my shift. My shift was early, but the only bad thing was that I would have to walk home by myself again since Grayson had to make sure everything was okay before locking it up. 

"Bye Grayson, I'll see you at home," I said while giving him a kiss on the cheek and walking out the front door. The one time that I wasn't paying attention to what was in front of me, and I ended up knocking into something. 

I mumbled and apology while rubbing my shoulder before looking up and seeing the rude guy that I had ran into the night we were right outside of the bar.

"No it's okay, I'm sorry I should have been watching where I was going but I was lost in my thoughts," he said, which surprised me a little compared to the other night. 

"Also, sorry about the other night, I was drunk and really just wanted to forget all my problems," he explained right after, shocking me even more that he wasn't too drunk to forget everything the next morning.
