I have been waiting for a case like this to come upI thought to myself and now it is finally here! I will get to go on a vacation, no interruptions, no cases, no anything mystery related.

"Nancy, come on we have to go now or we'll miss it! Come on, come on!" Bess called to me as my thoughts scattered.

"Hold on," I called while I grabbed my locket Ned gave to me before I left for Venice on one of my cases. "Okay, I'm ready" I said running down the stairs with my luggage trailing behind me.

Normally, I never take the locket off, considering it's from Ned, but I went swimming yesterday, and I couldn't get it wet. Ned's my boyfriend and one of the sweetest people I know. Since he wasn't going to be joining us on our cruise I needed something to remind me of him.

"Nancy let's go!" Bess said in the backseat of my blue car.

I stuffed my luggage in the back of the car and quickly shut the trunk.

"Ready?" I said once I was sitting in the driver's seat.

"We've been ready." George mumbled from the backseat.

I didn't bother saying something back to her because I knew I'd hear a sarcastic comment.

I stuffed my keys into the car and gave them a twirl, and the car started up. I pulled out of the driveway as my dad and Hannah waved goodbye from the doorway. "See you in a week," my dad, Carson, said. "I will miss you!"

"Me too!" I called back.

We then officially left the driveway and hit the road.

"So, when we get to the cruise ship, what will we do?" Bess said in a cheery voice.

"We can get our makeup done, and get way cute boys!" George said in a sarcastic voice.

It always seemed funny the way they were so different. Bess is pretty, blonde, curvy, girly, and positive. George is more of a tomboy, well, that is always as I thought of it. She has short blackish-brown hair, has an athletic figure, and is in love with any technology she can get her hands on. They always seemed to get along though, so it never really bothers me.

"Hey!" Bess said offended.

"I was just kidding!"

"I know"

Then they started play-fighting for a while, and I knew that everything was going to be alright.

"I'm starving, let's go get something to eat!" Bess said in the middle of reading her fasion magazines.

"I'm up for it!" George said moving her fingers quickley on her DS.

"Where do you want to go? But remember it has to be fast-food" I said while I was heading straight into a little town full of food stops.

"Um, I don't know" George said.

"Somewhere healthy, I'm starting to eat that way." Bess said pointing her finger.

"Subway?" I said looking at the sign a few feet away from the car.

"Perfect!" Bess said

"George?"

"Sure" she replied.

I pulled into the parking lot and we all headed in there.

I ordered something simple, Bess ordered very complicated, and George asked for everything on her sub. We got our drinks, again, I got a simple lemonade, Bess said to the lady working there that her favorite brand of Rootbeer wasn't there, and George put every flavor in her cup. We all sat down and ate , then we left.

"Wait!" George said grabbing two quarters out of her pocket.

"What?" Bess and I said together in perfect harmony.

"I want to read about this new video game in the newspaper." she said putting her quarters into the slot.

A newspaper popped out, and she grabbed it ,and we all piled into the car.

Once we were on the road for about thirty minutes George yelled out, "Guys look!'

Being me, I let go of the wheel in startlement and we went of the road.

"What?"I said casually like I didn't let go of the whell and we didn't spin of the road.

"The boat were going on is haunted!"

Geroge looked at Bess, Bess looked at me, and I looked at George.
