Chapter 7

"Hey, Sammy, look at this necklace."

"Huh, oh um Ya it's pretty," said Sammy distantly

"Did you want it?"

"Hey, um Casey?"

"Ya."

"I will be back I just saw someone…"

"Okay did you want to meet me somewhere or something?"

But before Sammy could hear everything that he said she was out through the door and chasing after the person that she thought that she recognized. "What if this isn't them, I would look like such a fool. Oh well, I hope that Casey will understand," thought Sammy. As she reached the middle of the mall she looked around and thought "Now which way could that person have gone?" As she thought she looked in some stores and down each section that she thought that he could have gone.

"Darn lost him!" declared Sammy loudly. As she said this she knew that it was a mistake, everyone was looking at her. "Sorry!"

"Gee," she thought, "that was bad. Well I better go tell Casey and say that I'm sorry."

As she rounded the corner she looked into the arcade and saw that Mr. Whitey was in there playing Astro Pop.

"Oh my gosh, you have got to be kidding me," she thought.

So she went into Pac Sun and there Casey was…exactly where she left him. Looking as beautiful as ever.

"I'm really sorry to kinda run away like that. It's just that I saw this person that I thought that I saw. Well didn't really see but caught a glimpse of before at that grocery store. And I thought that if I could follow him. But I lost him and it didn't go so well. I feel really…"

"Sammy it's okay I understand. I know how you are, you will never let down a good mystery. If you want I can help you with it."

"That would be great…thanks Casey."

"No problem."

"Well I should probably be getting home."

"Ya, same here. I will walk you home."

"Okay," Said Sammy not even thinking.

As they were walking home Sammy kept letting her mind wander back to that person that she had seen in Pac Sun.

"Hey Sammy?"

"Ya?"

"Did you want to get together again after school tomorrow?"

"Sure but I have to stay after again. I don't have very much left for math though."

"That's okay I can go in there and pretend to be working on something."

"That would be great."

As they reached the old folks home. Sammy suddenly felt like she could not wait for tomorrow to come. This was unusual normally she would give anything for it to stay as far away as possible and lock it in an unknown wardrobe.

"This is my stop. I have to come in and see Grams."

"Oh okay, well then I guess that I will see you tomorrow?"

"Ya that sounds good."

With this said Casey gave Sammy a hug and started to leave. Sammy blushed when he gave her the hug.

As Casey was leaving he turned around and said, "Sammy don't get hurt okay? Oh and wait for me to help you with this mystery of yours."

"Okay, that's a long wait you know."

"Ya I know but it will be worth it don't you think?"

"I suppose."

And with that Sammy turned and went into the building. Casey watched her and thought to himself, "Man she's pretty, but why does she have to get herself into such sticky situations?" He then walked off into the sunset.

As Sammy walked up to see Grams she just smiled to herself. Not even thinking to say hi to the receptionist. When she reached Grams' room she opened the door and looked inside. "Hello is anyone home?" There was no answer. Sammy looked on the counter and saw a note.

Sammy,

I went over to Hudson's house. I will be back in a little bit. There is dinner in the microwave.

Love,

Grams

What in the world thought Sammy, Grams never does this. Oh well it is good for her.
