Chapter 3
Catman followed me back to my house with a grin on his face the entire way. Immediately when we arrived we both jumped off our bikes and headed for the front door. My sister, Lizzy, jumped out before we could get inside. "Hey, Winnie! Catman, I made cookies shaped like cats and they're so sweet! I figured you'd come over with Winnie so of course I had to make something for you, and I tried a new recipe this time so I hope you like it. Also I can't remember if -" "Lizzy!" I interrupted, lightly shaking my sister by her shoulders. She grinned. "Sorry," she said, unblocking the doorway and strolling inside, still smiling. Immediately when I stepped in, Catman behind me, I felt the fresh aroma of cookies filling my nostrils. Lizzy loved cooking almost as much as she did her lizards and other tiny crawling creatures that always creep me out. Catman immediately walked right up to the cookies sitting in a dish on the counter and took a bite of one, grinning. He looked at Lizzy and gave her a thumbs up. "Far out!" he said. Lizzy grinned back. "Sweet! They're chocolate with a little bit of cotton candy flavor. I was hoping you'd like the new flavor." I quickly turned to Lizzy and explained about the Coolidge reunion as Catman downed the rest of the cookies. She squealed through half of it, putting in excitement remarks. She wanted to come too. I looked at Catman, who looked like he had just ate the best cookies of his life. "Um, Catman, you left out one tiny detail about the reunion. When is it exactly?" I asked, hoping it wouldn't be tomorrow night. I had a ride with another friend of mine, Hawk (AKA Victoria Hawkins), planned for tomorrow night. We hadn't ridden side by side with each other with our horses in a few years. "Tomorrow night." he answered.
