Audrey woke up early in the morning to the horrible screeching sound of the fire alarm. She sprung out of bed, grabbed Beau by the collar and ran down the fire escape to safety. She had no idea what just happened! It was just a reflex for her to grab Beau and get out of the building as soon as she could. She was standing outside with the other tenants from the apartment building. The whole apartment was engulfed in flames. The building was literally crumbling. The higher floors were definately more damaged then the rest of the building. Unfortunately, Audrey's apartment was on the twenty-second floor. There were twenty-five floors in the building. Audrey watched her home burn to the ground in the still dark morning as firefighters eventually gave up the fight and rescued everybody they could.

Alex woke up to the sound of his alarm beeping at him. He turned off the alarm and turned on the radio. He got dressed as Sexy Back played. Then the news came on. He heard that there had been a fire in the early morning at Audrey's apartment building. He hoped that she was alright. He picked up the phone and called her cell, hoping that it hadn't been left in the building to burn. He didn't get an answer on the phone. He quickly ate breakfast and drove to the hospital, wondering if anyone had heard anything from her. Oh he hoped Audrey was alright. He didn't know what he'd do if anything had happened to her.

Audrey had to answer various questions from the firefighters, aswell as call her insurance company from her someone's cell phone. She didn't have a place to leave Beau. She was already running late for work. Audrey sighed and continued to answer question after question.

Alex walked into the hospital. He looked around for Cara or Greg, or anyone who might have heard from Audrey. He hoped that someone had heard from her, he needed to know whether or not she was okay.

Cara walked over to Alex. "Alex? Have you heard from Audrey? She was supposed to be here an hour ago. I tried her house phone and her cell and she's not picking up." Cara told him. She was slightly worried.

((Today during English we were taking up our homework from last night and I didn't do one of the questions. OMG! I am so bad! lol. Neways.. I was doodling because it was incredibly boring and she noticed that I wasn't paying attention. She asked me to say my answer and of course it was the one question I didn't do. Cole laughed at me and I told him to shut up and then was told by Mrs. Drummond to say be quiet instead of shut up and I still had to make up my answer on the spot. It didn't come out that nicely. lol))
No, I haven't heard from her. I was about to ask you the same thing. I was listening to the radio and her building was on fire early this morning. Alex said. It started in the top they said, and her apartment's close to the top. God I hope she's okay. He said.
((My mom's friend, Ann, weighs 400 pounds. lol, that's not the whole thing. But yeah, isn't that huge?! Newayz.. She's been living with this guy that lived with a mail-order bride before and now she's pregnant. She has a daughter right now whose 11, annoying as hell, and weighs 200 pounds. When mom told me I was just like 'How? Who? Yuck!' lol! I would be scared to sleep with her if I was a guy for many reasons, one of the main ones being what if she crushed me? lmao))

((lmao! my retreat today was so depressing/boring! And so dirty! Ugh! I showered and stuff already but i still feel dirty! And we went walking through the worst part of Oshawa and it rained! And I'm sick! And it was freezing! But of course, the other group went out when it was nice and sunny! And I was like nervous the whole time because we walked under this bridge where poor people sleep and u could hear the trucks driving over it, and there was this nasty old aluminum barn thing. and before we got to the bridge, we walked past a smalll dirty lil house and a boxer liked popped up out of nowhere and started growling and barking! we all jumped! he looked friggin vicious and we wernt expecting it! the poor thing was chained to the porch. I'm a huge dog lover and even i was scared!))
"Me too." Cara said softly. Just as she said that, Audrey walked into the hospital. She was wearing pyjama pants and a tank top. Her hair was a mess and she wasn't wearing any makeup. She didn't have time to get dressed or anything because when there's a fire, you just get out as soon as you can. Plus, everything burned down. The only thing she managed to save was her purse which had her ID, passport, credit cards, money, pictures, birth certificate, and health card. Really, she ahd all of the important stuff. She didn't care if all her clothes and furniture burned down because she had everything important in her purse. Audrey was holding her big Great Dane by the collar. She didn't have anywhere to leave him and she needed to get to work to tell everyone what happened. "Hi." Audrey said with a forced smile as she walked over to Cara and Alex. Beau wagged his tail happily.
((lmao ewww! I was like 140 and i thot i was fat! god!))

((That sucks! I got in trouble today during Religion because I was talking too much and that's like the worst thing that happened all day. lol))
Hey. I'm glad you're alright. Alex said with a smile. He patted Beau a hello. He was glad that he was alright too.
((lol! I'm like 130 right now and I hate it! But as Grandma says, I'm tall so I'm allowed to weigh a bit. lol))

((lmao! u always get in trouble!  )) "Thanks." Audrey said with another forced smile. Mr. Cranely walked over to Audrey. "Dr. Kenmore, you know that we do not allow animals into this hospital unless they are service dogs or therapy animals." he said. "And where are your scrubs? You cannot work in pyjamas! A hospital has a certain image that has to be unpheld!" Mr. Cranely spoke very harshly to Audrey. He obviously hadn't heard the news. Audrey looked down at her feet, very embaressedly. "My apartment building burnt down this morning. Everything is gone. I just had time to get out of bed, grab Beau, and my purse. I can't leave Beau in the car all day. I'm sorry." she said, quietly. Mr. Cranely looked very guilty. "Oh. Sorry dear. I didn't know. Are you going to be okay?" he asked, softly. Audrey shrugged. "Yeah. I guess so." she said. ((lol i'm short but according to my doctor im still growing so ya. )) |

((I know! lol. I suppose I should like try to be good and not get in trouble but it's so boring. lmao))
Do you need a place to stay for the time being? You could stay at my place for a bit if you need to, or even just leave Beau there with Maxi for the day. Alex offered. He wouldn't mind letting Audrey stay with him. His house was big enough for her to stay with him no problem.
((lol.))

((lmao. i am such a goody good and part of me hates that! lmao!)) Audrey was surprised by Alex's offer. "Really? Oh Alex...you don't need to do that..." she said softly. She was very thankful for it but she didn't know if she was going to accept. She was considering it though. Brad had a really nice apartment. It was only one room though and the couch didn't pull out or anything. Audrey wasn't going to make her boyfriend sleep on the couch and she also wasn't comfortable sleeping in the same bed with him yet. |

((lol! I used to be like that but then it got too boring. lol))
It's no problem. Maxi would like having Beau there, and it's kinda lonely living alone. Alex said.

((lol!))
Audrey's eyes filled up a little bit with tears. She was so happy that Alex had offered. She really felt like she had somebody who cared about her. Sure, Brad cared about her, and she loved him but she always felt like he had an alterior motive. She felt so safe with Alex. Audrey wrapped her arms around Alex and hugged him tightly. "Oh Alex... Thank you so much..." she told him softly. Cara winked at Alex and smiled. She knew that he was loving this.

Alex smiled and hugged her. Don't mention it. Alex said, he really didn't mind one bit. He grinned at Cara once he knew Audrey wouldn't see it. He loved this a lot.

Audrey pulled away from him. "I'll make this up to you. I promise..." she told him softly with a smile. She didn't want Alex to have to pay for everything. She would pay her share of the bills and she could cook or clean whenever he wanted her to.
