I don't own any of 1-800-Where-R-You characters. Meg Cabot does.

I hope you like it I admit it starts out a little slow but I hope you give it a chance.

Normal is Jess. Bold is the " Sad" Father.

Chapter 1

He came up to me right after my last class of the day.

For the past three years I've been studying at IU for a teaching degree in music. For those of you who don't already know me, my name is Jesica Mastriani, once known as Lightning Girl. After a series of events that were documented in my last books, I decided to become a teacher for my brother Douglas's new alternative high school. On the side though, I still help find missing kids. I can't really help it, I mean I see a picture of a missing kid, I go to sleep and the next day I know where they are. It just happens. My life lately has been more filled with me having a fiancee. Sorry, Icouldn't help mention that, who wouldn't with a fiancee as hot as mine. Rob. Hmmmm. He's probably working in his garage right now. Working really hard, probably sweating with shirt sticking to his broad chest. Mmmmmm. Sorry got a little sidetracked. Since it's the last five minutes of my last class, I can daydream all I want. Let me tell you something it really sucks that my parents won't let me move in with Rob. Every time I bring it up it goes like this:

Me: Mom, Dad this is the twenty-first century. A lot of people see it as an advantage being able to test drive instead of having to buy the car out right.

Mom: Jessica, what is all this about cars. If you are going to bring up something stay on that topic.

Dad: (As usual tuning us out)

Me : Mom it was an analogy. I meant that most people think it's good to know beforehand if the person they are going to marry is a slob or if he leaves the leaves the toilet seat up.

Mom: No, You have to get married first!!!! (The same excuse every time)

Dad: What she said.

So every time I bring up that topic that's how the conversation goes. At first I didn't mind it so much but now that we've been engaged for three years it's starting to get frustrating. I had to start thinking up different ways to sneak Rob into my room.

While I was thinking this we were being dismissed from class, I got up and walked out of the room.

I was musing over the fact that my parents seem to be able to predict which way I 'll bring him up next, an unobtrusive looking middle-aged man came up to me.

"Miss Mastriani, I don't like to beat around the bush, so I'm going to ask outright. Will you please help me find my children? I know you must be extremely busy and I bet hundreds of people ask you all the time. But you are my last hope. I have tried just about everything I can think of, but I still can't find them. I miss them so much." He kind of choked up on that last part. I don't think I could lived with my self if I said no. He reminded me a little bit of my dad.

"Sure, why don't we go to the cafe over there and you can tell me more about them and yourself!!" I said.

" Okay." he said in small voice.

Oh, man I wish I wasn't such a sap. The small and vulnerable voice and eyes get me all the time. Now there is no thought in my mind of turning this poor man away.

Oh God! This is so easy. This idiot of a girl is such a sap . I have her eating out the palm of my hand. Most of what of what I told her is true. I am looking for my children, but not for the reasons she might think. Ha!! and I thought Lightning Girl would be a harder nut to crack. But I should have known all these psychic types are a bunch of hippie flower children. I guess I have to put up with her until she finds my precious (ugh) children. When I've dealt with them, I can go back to what I enjoy the most, and this psychic looks like a good candidate for my kind of fun.
