Chapter 2: Surprise Surprise!

Pim slowly turned around. She knew the voice now but she still didn't want to see the person.

"Oh my gosh Pim! It's me, Debbie!"

"Debbie? What are YOU doing here? I thought you had moved. Away from here… forever."

"No silly, I was in this exchange program. I had gone to Spain for the rest of the school year. Now I am back and I can hang out with my best friend in the whole world."

"I cannot believe I am going to start a conversation but here goes. Did you have fun?" asked Pim.

"Yes! It was great, we have to hang out after school today so I can tell you all about it. Oh! I have something for you." replied Debbie.

"Really?"

"Yes! Yea me… I get to give you presents."

"Yea! Anyway Debbie, this is Lil' Danny. Lil' Danny, this is Debbie."

Debbie and Lil' Danny shook hands but Pim noticed something weird. She became aware that they held hands for a second too long and she could have sworn Debbie blushed slightly. But Pim took this as a sign that she was way too hungry.

"Um, can we go eat now? I am starving!" Pim said.

The three started walking toward the cafeteria and after getting their food they sat down and started talking. Pim told Debbie about what had happened the past few months. Then Debbie told Pim about everything that happened to her in Spain.

"I can't believe I got back just in time to sign up for the Miss Pickford contest." said Debbie happily.

"You are actually going do that stupid contest?"

"Well you were thinking of doing it before weren't you?" Lil' Danny asked her.

"Well, yea! Thinking of doing it before. Notice the 'thinking' and 'before' part." Pim replied.

"Oh!" Debbie's big smile faded. "Really, because I signed you up thinking we could do it together."

"YOU WHAT?"


Meanwhile, Keely and Phil had just finished lunch and were now in the computer lab. Keely wanted to check her email. Phil watched over her shoulder. There were three new messages. One from Via, one piece of junk mail, and the third one was from someone he didn't recognize. Just so Keely wouldn't think he was looking he went over to talk to Grady. He and Grace were really hitting it off.

"Yea, everything is great. But now she wants to enter the Miss Pickford contest and I have to be her escort."

"Escort? What do you mean?"

"Well for some of the events, you have to have a male escort." answered Grady looking at Phil confusedly. "Didn't you know?"

"No, I didn't" At his moment Phil looked at Keely. But he didn't have time to think a thought because…

"OH MY GOD!"
