That night, the two finally reached Jake's house. Jake rang the doorbell. His mom answered the door. "Oh hey Jake. Who is she?" She asked, pointing to Rose.

"Oh, this isRose. She's a friend from school. Can she stay here so we can work on homework?" Jake replied, asking. "Of course. In fact, she can stay for dinner." She replied.

Jake glanced at Rose doing an I-told-you look. Rose smiled and they both entered the residence. Both of them went upstairs, with Jake leading the way to his room.

He opened the door. "Sorry, might be a little messy." Jake said, closing the door. "It's alright." Rose said, sitting down on Jake's bed. They both took out their homework.

They decided to do math first since it was pretty much, their least favorite subject. Next, they did science then language arts.

After half an hour, they have finished almost every piece of homework. The last class they had to do was, mythology class.

Jake shuddered. "Sometimes, I wish we had a different mythology teacher besides Rotwood." He said. "Jake, if you know so much about magical creatures, why do you fail his class?" She asked.

"Well, believe it or not, Rotwood has the wrong facts about magical creatures." Jake replied, sharpening his pencil. He threw away the shavings and got out his homework.

"Oh, okay. That explains." Rose said. They both smiled at each other and got to work.

Within ten minutes or so, they got it done and put their homework and pencils away. "Jake, Rose, dinner is ready!" Jake's mom called out. "Coming!" they both called out.

They both headed downstairs. The two had sat downlike the usual,sitting together. After dinner that night, Rose stayed in the living room to talk to Jake for a few minutes.

When the clock struck eight o' clock, Rose bid goodbye and left Jake's house. Jake waved goodbye and immediately went upstairs to call Trixie and Spud about his day.

He dialed the number and the three were talking together. "So, how was your day with Rose?" Trixie asked. "It was so great. It was like one of the best days ever." Jake replied.

"What did you do there?" Spud asked. "A lot of things. First, we went to the Ferris Wheel. Then, we went to the Tilt-a-Whirl, then the roller coaster. After that, we went to the bumper cars. After that, we stopped to eat and then we rode the carousel. Before we left, we rode the roller coaster two more times." Jake described, gazing.

"Wow, sounds like you had a fun day." Spud said. "Yeah, did you eat the funnel cakes like last time?" Trixie asked. "No, after 'checking the dumpsters' on Memorial Day months ago, I passed." Jake replied.

"So, are you going to meet up with use tomorrow?" Trixie asked. "I'll see. If Rose is open, then I might go with her." Jake replied. "You two have like been spending a lot of time together." Spud pointed out.

"Yeah, aren't you even bothered that she's your mortal enemy?" Trixie asked. "No, not anymore." Jake replied. "Well, I got to go. My mom's making me get off the phone. See you tomorrow, Jake." Trixie said.

"Ditto. Hope to see you tomorrow, bro." Spud said. The three hung up and Jake got ready for bed, as there was school the next day.
