The two couples went out to see another movie the next weekend. Since it ended at 10:00 PM, they got out of the theater when stars were beginning to come out.
They went to a nearby park to stargaze. "Look, there's Pegasus!" said Mia excitedly, pointing up (of course) and to the left.
"Oh boy." Vi smacked her head with her palm. "Mia, you find horses everywhere you go, don't you?"
Sam smiled. "I think it's cute." Mia blushed.
"Whatever." Vi rolled her eyes and smiled. "Hey, there's a shooting star!"
Everyone looked up as the star sailed across the night sky. "Don't forget to make a wish!" said Tony playfully.
I don't need to, thought Mia. She smiled at Sam. My wish already came true.
The four sat watching the heavens for a while longer. Some of the constellations they found were Cassiopeia, Little Bear, and Leo. Around 10:45 Mia looked at her watch and reluctantly announced, "My mom wants me home by 11:00. I'd better go."
Vi nodded. "Yeah, that's my curfew too."
"We'll walk you two home." offered Sam. "After all, it's a pretty dark night."
Mia blushed slightly. "Thanks."
The teenagers proceeded in the direction of the girls' neighborhood. On their way, they passed a dark, creepy alley. Just as they walked past it, a bolt of lightning shot out of nowhere and hit Violet. She passed out and hit the sidewalk hard.
"VI!" yelled Tony, Sam, and Mia as they rushed to her side.
Mwah-hah-hah-hah-hah! Cliffhanger! What happened to Vi? Where did that lightning come from? And most importantly, can they get home by their 11:00 curfew? Tune in next time to find out! (Please R&R, that way you'll get the next chapter sooner!)
