It was 7 at night, and getting dark out. Stepping outside, I called Hector. "What's up, Zoe, something on your mind?" He asked, music playing in the background. "Yes. Pick me up at 7:30. I'm heading back to Tom's." I hesitated. I heard Hector then spitting out something. "Uh, Hector? Is everything okay?" I asked, confused. Hector started cracking up and said, "Well, on a serious note, not really. You, Sam, Maria, and Amanda got lucky last week. But what about tonight? Do you really want to risk your life over Tom Prince?" I thought about this. I remembered the words from last week. Who knows why he's stalking Sam... There's a variety of reasons why people harrass others. Something as simple as a crush, to something dangerous like bullying or physical violence. Then I re-thought. I had a reason. "Hector, hear me out. Centerscore and the rest of us could also be in danger." I remembered the text from Tom and recited it to Hector. He then replied, "Not Centerscore. Not today, not EVER. I'm heading your way." We said out good-byes and hung up.

I sat on the porch when Sam ran out, almost hyperventilating. "Sam! What's going on?" I frantically asked. She replied being out of breath, "Look at the last text he wrote me, did you send something?" I looked at it. 'You're right, I don't know who this is. But if you step one foot near Tom Prince, you'll see how interesting this'll REALLY get...' The chills came back, but I honestly said, "Yes, I did. I had to send something, and not let you suffer. Hector's picking me up to go to Tom's house." Sam sighed and quietly said, "Just... whatever you do, please don't make him any more angry than he is. Trust me, I've witnessed the Mallika disaster. It was awful."

Soon enough, Hector picked me up. We talked all the way to Tom's house, then I got out of the Party Van. I wore my black outfit again, and was ready for just about anything. The mansion was lit in some places, there was even a new, red car sitting in their driveway. The verdict was, the butler was probably home. I strolled up and routinely picked the lock. As I went inside, I went up the steps. I did feel a sense of safeness since Hector was waiting outside. At the same time, though, I was still scared.

Going up the stairs, I heard a voice. "Jeeves?" I jumped and tiptoed towards the left hallway, then peeked in the door. A blonde guy wearing a blue polo with his collar popped was sitting on his bed, watching TV- Tom Prince. He's cute, too bad he's a greedy stalker-jerk. I thought, and knocked on Tom's door. "Come in!" He then yelled. Tom took one look at me and jumped out of his skin. "Oh! A girl?! Wait... are you from Monarch Prep?" He asked, trembling. I crossed my arms and said, "Don't ask any questions. You're Tom Prince, right?" Tom then stiffened his shoulders and boasted, "The one and only!" I then said, "Listen, I'm a Centerscorian, do you know a girl named Sam Davis?" He seemed like he had a mixture of confusion, anger, and nervousness. Then, he calmed. "You... wouldn't happen to be the person that texted me earlier... are you?" Tom asked, almost raising his voice. I quickly raised my eyebrows and angrily put my hands on my hips. "Listen! That person is anonymous. Until then, tell me why you're constantly texting her!" All of a sudden, he got right in my face. "You wouldn't understand... and you CERTAINLY don't need to be involved! This is between me and Sam only!" He said angrily. I took a cautionary step back and replied, almost in the same tone, "Oh, like it was with Mallika? How well did that turn out, having 2 other so-called peasants coming after you all over one girl?" Suddenly, Tom raised his arms quickly, then set them down again. Again, getting in my face, he yelled, "You don't know anything about that! That was supposed to be a secret, never to be talked about again! And how... how DARE you bring that up! I doubt you even KNOW Samantha, and yet you have the audacity to come into MY DAD'S PERSONAL PROPERTY and start throwing accusations everywhere?! This is... preposterous!" I took a step closer and dropped my voice to a lower tone: "Oh, yeah? I know her so well that... I know you took PICTURES of her. Unauthorized ones that YOU could get in trouble for." Tom's face turned a dark shade of red and his eyebrows darted harshly. "You... YOU'RE the one that took my phone?!" He then started growling and yelling incoherently before he tried to lunge at me. Before he could, I darted down the stairs and raced out the door.

As I got down farther on Tom's lawn, we heard him stop. "You had a van with technological equipment here the whole time?! I'M GETTING MY BODYGUARDS, AND YOU WILL ALL BE SORRY!" When he ran back in, Hector yelled, "Get in the van, now! He's out of his mind!"
With that, Hector backed out of the road as fast as he could. Right as we got back on the normal road, a long, black limousine started down the Prince Mansion driveway.
