"Is Ashton going to be able to come to work tonight?" I ask Dr. Smith hopefully.

"I'm afraid I have to keep him here for a few more hours. It's up to him if he's up for working after that." He tells us with a sigh.

Ashton looks up at the doctor, frowning slightly. He takes a moment to sit up, his chest covered in large bandages. He already looks a lot better than a few hours ago.

"May I talk to my friends alone for a second?" He asks, his voice quiet.

Doctor Smith nods and leaves the room, talking with a nurse about Ashton as he leaves.

"How are you feeling Ash?" Michael asks, kneeling down by Ashton's bed.

"I'm better, honestly. It doesn't hurt as bad." He shrugs, seeming sad about something.

"Are you sure?" Luke steps forward, "You seem upset."

"I'm not, I'm just tired is all." Ashton smiles weakly, "You guys can handle the restaurant for a while right?"

The clock reads eleven p.m. Dread settles in my stomach like a rock. I swallow my fear down, taking a deep breath.

"Yeah, just get better fast..." Michael chuckles weakly.

Ashton nods, laying back down.

"Promise me you won't die." He says in an only half kidding tone.

"We'll try bud." Luke chuckles, "See you in a while."

Footsteps echo through the halls of the pizzeria, whether all of them are ours, I can't be sure. The four of us stay close by each other, avoiding tables as we make our way back to the office.

"I feel like something is watching me..." Luke whispers harshly.

"Yeah...I wish we could turn on some lights...that would make everything so much better." Michael sighs.

"Too bad that this place is too cheap to have a better electric system." I scoff as we reach the long hallway where at the end, the office lies.

"No kidding." Luke rolls his eyes as we make it back there.

"Hey, wait." Michael stops, squinting at the walls and the vents, picking a long yellow tape up, "Is this...police tape?" He asks in shock.

"Why would there be police tape here?" Luke asks in a confused way.

"Maybe the phone guy knows." I state as the phone starts to ring.

"Yeah, let's ask." Michael nods, picking up the phone and putting it on speaker.

"Hello, hello? Hey! Night four! I told you you'd get the hang of it!" He chuckles first thing.

"Um yeah, sure." I sigh, "But, hey, do you know why there's all this police tape around? Should we be worried?"

"Okay, about that! So uh...just to update you, uh there's been somewhat of an investigation going on..." He drifts off.

"Meaning?" Luke raises a brow, biting his lip nervously as well.

"Uh, we may end up having to close for a few days, I don't know." He sighs.

Somehow that makes me sigh in absolute relief, good riddance to this place. The other boys seem to have a similar reaction.
