Untouched (Lauren/You)

Chapter 17: I'm watching you

I had had just about enough of sleeping and laying around in bed half the day. I decided to get up and take a long hot shower my headache,neck and muscle aches were gone so I felt a little better. I gathered a few clean clothes nothing fancy just a pair of joggers. A batman t-shirt black socks and a pair of comfy house shoes since obviously I wasn't going anywhere per Lauren's strict orders. After my amazing shower, I quickly got dressed and made my way downstairs. As I passed Lauren's room I noticed that her door was slightly ajar (open) I peeked in but didn't see her anywhere that meant that she must be SOMEWHERE in the house.. but where? I made my way down to the kitchen I was starving by this time and Lauren saying that she would check on me went to the window or maybe she did check on me while I was asleep who knows.I glanced into the livingroom the t.v. was on but no one was there I then went to the kitchen no Lauren there either I heard my stomach growl and decided that a nice turkey sandwich with all the fixins would fill me up. I opened the fridge and took out the nessesary condiments,meat and cheese that I needed and began making a masterpiece. I was just adding the top bread to complete the sandwich when I heard a glass break down the hall. It startled me so I stood in silence for a moment "Lauren is that you?" I called out but no answer I brushed it off and began to cut into my sandwich then suddenly the sound of something being drug across the floor caught my attention. I peeked around the corner and but didn't see anything "lauren! Are you here?!" I shouted I waited and heard silence Nothing but silence I saw my duffle bag sitting under the table in the living room where I had placed it I quickly got to it unzipped the bag and pulled out my 9mm I loaded it and placed it inside of my jeans to conceal it. I walked quietly down the hallway and around the corner "lauren!" I shouted I heard another glass break and quickly removed my gun from under my shirt, cocked the clip. I quietly walked to the French doors get a view of the pool and I still saw no one "lauren!" I shouted again but again I got no answer suddenly I felt something hard hit me in back of my head everything went black.

To be continued..
