Chapter Ten

                                    

                                          
We got home safely. I still wanted to be outside, though. I knew if we went inside, Colby would want his phone. I wouldn't doubt that people got photos of me on his shoulders, or even videos of the whole thing. We went into the backyard but we got bored quickly. "Okay, Colby" I said, handing him his phone. We were in the kitchen. I heard lots.of footsteps coming down from the stairs. All of the roomates came down after they noticed we were back.
                          
"It's bad." Corey sounded worried, looking at his phone. "What is?" Colby panicked a little. "Twitter." Corey replied. "They have videos and photos of you at the mall." Sam looked a little angry, "Why didn't you even call me?"
"We left our phones in the car. Im Sorry." I said, looking at the ground.  Colby showed me his feed. It was full of people who tagged him in videos and photos. I looked at Colby then the rest of the roomates. I didn't know what else to do, so I ran past them.  Colby followed me. "Where are you going?" He asked me. "Your room." I said, as I darted up the steps. 
                          
Colby shut the door after he walked in. "My room? Autumn, It's our room now." He tried to hug me but I didn't let him. I knew it would sooth me but I still didn't let him. "You'll calm down by yourself then." He said as he sat on the bed. I laid down next to him and cried. I didn't really have a reason, other then the twitter problem, but I cried quietly to myself. He laid next to me and played with my hair. I faced him. "That's my job, Colbs. I play with your hair." I tried to giggle through my sniffles. He smiled. "It helps me feel really good. Just let me do it." He said, trying to continue. I allowed him. It actually did calm me down. I looked up at him. He continued to smile. I got really close to him and put my head on his chest. He held me close and continued to play with my hair. I fell asleep, as it was the only thing I wanted to do. It would make me numb to the twitter drama. 
                          
I had a dream. It was a dark room. I saw Jake. He had a dirty smirk on his face, eyes full of hunger. He wanted somthing. He was just in boxers and it felt off. I then looked around and then saw Colby. He looked helpless and defenseless. He, too, wanted somthing. I looked to another side of the room and saw Sam. His hand was sticking out, mouth wide open, as if he was screaming 'No'. His expression was terrifying. I looked back to see colby. I tried walking towards him, but no matter how far, or fast, I walked, he was the same distance away. As for Jake and Sam. They all stood still. I fainted in my dream then woke up, panting and out of breath. 
                          
I shot up, making sure that I actually woke up. It was dark outside now. Colby shot up after me. "Whats wrong? I was trying to wake you. You were moving around and making weird sounds." He sounded concerned. I turned to him and hugged him, being thankful it was just a dream. "It was a dream." I said then explained what happened, minus the fact Jake was in his boxers. He still looked concerned. "It was probably nothing." I said, shaking my head and standing up. Colby stood up right after me and hugged me from the back. I looked up at him. He closed his eyes then we both fell gently onto the bed. He got on top of me and kissed me. He became more hungry, kissing me deeper and longer. I did the same. 
                          
I heard a knock on the door. Colby didn't stop, though. Someone came in. I tried to see who it was but I couldn't. The person cleared their throat. I softly pushed colby off me. He clearly wasn't done, but looked at me like he knew. I looked at the person. It looked to be Sam but I wasn't sure. "Sam?" I asked but recieved no reply. I tired to focus on the face but couldn't recognize them. I grabbed Colby's hand. "What the hell?" He asked the person. We heard the other roomates scream from downstairs. "Jake? Aaron? Sam? Corey?" I yelled down to them. No one answered. The person shut the door and locked it. I heard muffled yells and screams from the roomates. "Who are you?" I asked the person. Instead of replying, he laughed harshly. I squeezed Colby's hand tighter. "We're simply here to fix you're twitter mess and take you out of the picture." The person said. "Colby?" I asked. He wasn't thinking. He was scared out of his mind. I was too. "Get up." The person loudy demanded. "I SAID GET UP!" The person yelled. I got up and ran to the other side of the room, dragging a practicality unconscious Colby with me. Colby finally had an idea. I knew he did. The guy was focused on me. Colby lipped "distract him!" I automatically started to pretend I was crazy. I started talking about how I felt and slowly started yelling at the top of my lungs saying that the tweets made me really upset. I even flipped Colby's office chair over and slammed stuff off the desk. "Calm down." The person said. Colby snook behing him, grabbed a shirt, then put it around the guys neck to knock him down. The guy started to choak. "AUTUMN, FIND THE OTHERS." Colby yelled. I grabbed one of our phones and ran, leaving the door wide open. I heard foot steps after me. I dove into a closet, Colby followed. I looked at him the listened closely. "What do you want?" I heard Sam scream in a panicked voice. He was crying. "I just want to see my sister. Please!" He yelled, still crying. I almost started crying, too. Colby took his phone and called the cops. "Hello, 911 how can I help you?" The opperator asked. "My name's colby brock. We have intruders in my house. Umm, I don't know if they hurt my roomates or not. I don't know how many are here or how they got in." Colby tried to whisper. His voice was shakey. "Where are you?" The opperator asked. "In the upstairs closet." Colby said. I heard Corey and Aaron scream really loud, not a normal scream, though. It sounded like they were actually dying. I started to cry. I tried to be quiet. Colby rubbed my arm. "Come quick." He said, then hung up. 
                          
Then I woke up, for real this time.
