Chapter 18: Bess? Where are you?

1pm River Heights Airport

A voice: Chet? Chet Morton?

Chet turned around, where was that voice was coming from, it sounded so

familiar. No one knew he was coming in on a flight. Man, weird stuff is going on here;

he thought to himself and continued walking.

A voice: CHET!!!!!!!

Chet: WHAT?

Chet turned all around he didn't see anyone. Someone must be playing a game

with him. He grabbed his luggage as it went by, and felt a hand on his arm. He turned

around quickly.

Chet: Bess? Is that you? Have you been calling me?

Bess: Yup. It was me. I haven't seen you in forever, why are you here?

Chet: Hi, and I could ask you the same thing. My parents; however, heard about the incident and sent me up here to keep an eye on Iola. Not that Joe wouldn't do a good job seeing as he's going to propose..

Bess: WHAT!?!?!?!?!

Chet: Opps, sorry I thought you knew. Please don't say a word. I know you won't, but please this can't slip out to anyone.

Bess: Alright, mum's the word. I am here because I was tired of waiting at the hospital. We got word that Nancy passed away late last night. And.. an. I had to see if I could change my flight or get a refund.

Chet: Bess I am so sorry. We hadn't heard. But where were you flying to.

Bess herded Chet towards her rental car before answering. Once they got to the

car, Chet enfolded Bess in his arms and held her. They had been secretly dating for quite

some time now, having met on an old case of Nancy's and the Hardy's. It had been a

slow moving relationship, she at Wilder, he at NYU. They had sparks and each other and

for right now that's all that matters.

Bess broke away, opened the trunk for Chet's stuff and got in the car. Chet put his

stuff in, shut the trunk, and hopped in the passengers' side.

Chet: Feeling a little better?

Bess: Yeah, I'll take you to the Drew house. It's where we all have been staying, you could say. After we drop your stuff off, I will take you up to the hospital where I am sure everyone is. This has just been soo.

Chet: I hear ya.

Chet squeezed her leg as she trailed off, just to let her know he was there for her

no matter what. They all had a long road of them, Chet thought as Bess soon pulled into a

driveway and shut the engine off.

A/N This is just a small filler chapter for what comes next. .. and believe you me, it isn't what you are expecting.. That I promise.
