Sam didn't know what to say.

'Go on, tell us where you were!' ordered Edgar.

'Erm... err...' Sam was sweating now.

'Simple question. Where were you?' Alan spoke slowly.

'I ran into the werewolf' lied Sam.

It wasn't a total lie... not really.

Sam didn't like lying, esspecially not to his best friends in the whole wide world, he always felt guilty.

Edgar and Alan were satisfied for now, they still looked at him suspiciously.

Alan walked over to the counter on the other side of the store and Edgar went over to Zoe, Sam sighed a breath of relief.

'Oh, Sam, come here a second' Alan called.

'What?' asked Sam, walking over to him.

'We've gotta go see Blake to get new weapons specialised for werewolves' whispered Alan 'Do you think that you could stay here with Zoe, I don't trust her' he looked over at Zoe.

'Why don't you trust her?' asked Sam.

'Well, she's just all over Edgar' whispered Alan pointing at the two.

'And, she just fancies him thats all' said Sam, rolling his eyes.

'But, nobody fancies Edgar, ever' Alan wore a serious face.

'Alan, it's not weird, it's normal. That's what girls are like. Just because she likes your brother doesn't make her a supernatural creature' Sam reassured him.

'Ok, but it doesn't mean she isn't a superna...' began Alan but Sam stopped him.

'Alan, leave it. Look, she makes him happy, this is probably the only chance he'll ever get with a partially sane girl, don't ruin it for him' said Sam patting him on the back then walking off to read a superman comic off the shelf.

Alan looked over at his brother to see Zoe hanging off his arm.

He felt like going over there and breaking them up but when he saw the smile on Edgar's face he stopped and smiled too.
