Chapter Fourteen: Final Clearance

"I hope I didn'ts cause any of dis!" Samantha stated with concern as she and Brigid sat next to each other on the dock, swinging their dangling legs and watching Spot and his little brother Mark splash and play in the water.

Brigid laughed. "Oh, no! No, it was all Spot an' I. Aw faults alone!" She smiled at Sam. "We woiked it out, so all's good an' well!"

"Hey, Sketch!" Spot yelled. "Sam!"

The two girls looked down at the two just in time to get splashed with plenty of water. Laughing hysterically, Spot gave a high-five to his giggling brother.

Brigid grabbed Spot's blue hat and held it above the water threatingly.

"WHOA!" Spot squawed. "No way! Don'ts!" At a requesting glance from Brigid, he held his hand in the air and promised, "We wonts git ya two wet agin."

Satisfied, Brigid set the hat down and nodded her thanks amidst Samantha's laughter. The brown-haired girl wiped a tear away and mentioned, "Ya shoiuh did woik it out! Ya leadin' him by da scruff of his neck!"

"Shh!" Brigid hushed. "He doesn't have ta know!"

Smirking wickedly, the two girls slapped hands quietly behind their backs.
