Chapter 1

It was very cold as Carly Shae walked into her apartment. She slammed the door and plumped down on the couch. Today had been a rought day. A pop quiz in science and a test in spanish. For goodness sakes, all Carly could say in spanish was 'i like chicken'! "Me gusto pollo. Because I do like chicken! Just not spanish one's." Carly pouted to herself. "What was that? Well, hey there CarlyBear! How was school today?" Spencer asked as he walked into the living room. "I think I failed the test in spanish!" Carly told Spencer. "Aww, that's too bad. But Carls, you'll never guess what Pampered Poodles dog hair salon asked me to do!" Without waiting for a reply, Spencer continued. "They asked me to make a sculpture of a poodle made out of ice cream!" Oh, so that's why it's so cold in here; Carly thought. "And guess what the pay is!? $100,000!" Spencer and Carly started screaming and jumping up and down. Ding Dong! "Can you get that? My hands are ice-creamy." Spencer asked Carly. "SURE!" Carly said, still excited from the job offering. She just hoped Spencer didn't mess up. "Hello?" Carly said, looking out the door. "CARLY! SURPRISE!"
