I would like to say thank you to my reviewer once again. LOL.
Mrs. Nikki Slater- LoL. Wait till you see what it is. I'll keep the chapters coming.
Now for Chapter three…

I screamed…
I fell to the pavement. It was only a squirrel. I watched as it scurried away in fright. My breathing was heavy. I closed my eyes and tried to control it. I didn't feel that feeling of being watched anymore. I heard footsteps coming my way.
"Querida?" I heard Jesse's voice say. "Are you all right?"
I opened my eyes and stared into Jesse's face. He offered a hand and pulled me up. I brushed off my pants. "I'm fine."
"Are you sure Susannah?" Father D. asked. He looked a bit pale.
"It was only a squirrel." I let out a laugh. It sounded fake. And the problem was, it was.
There was a moment of silence. Father D. kept on looking at the bush and Jesse was trying to catch my eyes.
"Right," Father D. perked up. "Well, Susannah, I told Jesse about your situation and he thinks its best that you stay out of the ghost business for now."
Jesse took my hands. I looked at him. His eyes told me he was serious. "I don't want you to get hurt, Susannah. Just please promise me that you won't go ghost hunting for a little while. Promise me."
I don't know why they were making such a big deal out of this. It was just one little stupid warning. One stupid little warning.
"I promise" How could I not say no? I'll do it for awhile, but if nothing happens, then I'm sorry Jesse, but I'm going to have to break that promise.
Jesse smiled and gave me a small hug. I hugged him back, a little. Something in my pocket vibrated. I pulled away from Jesse and reached in and pulled out my cell. I checked the caller ID and saw it was Cee Cee.
"Hey Cee. What's up?" I asked, a smile appeared on my face. I forgot about the ghost girl and her warning.
"Hey Simon. You wanna go to the mall?" Her voice called out.
"Definitely. I'll see you there in a few."
"Bye."
"Bye." I hung up.
"Who was that?" Jesse asked.
I smiled. "Cee Cee. I'm going to the mall and hang out with her."
"Are you sure that's a good idea Susannah?" Father D. asked. I looked at him.
"Why not?" I stared into his brown eyes. (A/N: Are they brown?)
"Well, there could be ghosts there and one of them may kill you," Father D. put it simply.
I looked at Father D., then Jesse. "Are you being serious?" I stared at the both of them. "I said I wouldn't touch any ghosts or do any ghost business. Now you want me to stay at home all the time. Is that what you're asking?"
"Well… Yes." Father D. said cautiously.
"That's not fair!" I complained. That was not fair at all. They want me to stay home now. What kind of life could I live there? None, that's for sure!
I don't normally do this but just to show my dislike for this new idea, I stomped my foot and walked towards my car.
"Susannah!" Jesse ran after me. He grabbed my shoulder as I was just about to get in the car.
I attempted to give him my puppy dog eyes. "Look Jesse, I just don't want to be stuck in my house just because we got a stupid warning from a ghost girl. I don't want to do that. My parents may suspect something, and…I…I just don't really want to do this whole thing. I would rather face it, you know."
Jesse gave me a small smile. "Fine, go out. But if you're not back before 12:00, I'm going lock you in your room."
I smiled in thanks. "Wait. Are you giving me a curfew?"
His smile grew. He kissed my on the top of the forehead and said, "Go. Have fun and be careful."
I got in my car and drove out of the parking lot. I was on my way to the mall when that one feeling came back again. I looked in my rear-view mirror and saw no one. I think there is someone following me, I thought.
I concentrated on the road and finally made it to the mall. The feeling never left me, so I made sure my eyes took in every detail. Just to make sure. I saw Cee Cee standing by the entrance. I got out of my car and waved.
She waved back, her eyes flashing in the sunlight. When I got over there she asked, "Simon, why are you late?"
"Sorry Cee, I got stuck in traffic," I lied. Well, at least it was better than the truth. Right?
We headed inside the mall. My eyes were everywhere and not once did I see the ghost. Maybe I'm just imagining things. Yeah, that's it. I'm imagining that someone is following me and I'm doing a really good job at it.
I sighed and followed Cee Cee into the joke shop.
"Why are we going in here?" I asked and looked around.
"It's April fool's tomorrow, Simon. I want to get Adam back." She picked up some fake vomit and made a grossed out face. "Last year he toilet papered my entire room. He put whip cream on my hand and ticked my face with a feather. But not this year. He's going to a party late at night. I know he is going to be completely drunk and won't have time for an April fool's trick."
"Have anything in mind?" I grin crept onto my face.

Later that night…
I called Jesse to let him know that I would be spending the night at Cee Cee's apartment. He didn't mind. Cee Cee and I had bought our money's worth at the mall. We took most of the night to get ready.
Cee Cee had been right, when Adam got back… let's say he didn't look to good. His clothes were all wrinkled and his eyes told us that he was extremely tired. Cee Cee made him a special drink of water, containing sleeping pills, and he fell straight to sleep as soon as he got to bed. I, at the time, was hiding in the closet in the pantry.
We smiled at each other and waited for a few minutes before we got to work. We worked our butts off and made this work of art a masterpiece. We finally finished at about 2 in the morning.
I fell asleep on the couch, and pretty quickly too. I didn't even realize that I had so much fun that I forgot about the stalker. Well that's what the ghost was, right? A stalker.
The next morning, Cee Cee woke me up early and we both got out our cameras. We crept down to Adam's room and opened his door. I took one look at him and almost giggled.
We covered the room in toilet paper, and had a nice puddle of honey around his bed. (Don't worry; we put something underneath of the honey so it wouldn't stick to the floor.) But that wasn't the best sight, it was Adam.
Adam looked like a girl. Literally. We bought a blonde wig and put it on his head. He wore bright red lips stick and brown eye shadow. He wore a leopard print dress that showed off his tissue stuffed gold bra. He also wore three inch black heels and net stockings. It was quiet a sight. Wouldn't you agree?
We each took a picture before it all started. We backed out of the room and Cee Cee pulled out a horn.
"Hope your upstairs neighbors don't mind." I whispered in her ear.
"They won't. They don't really care about anything." She whispered back, but her eyes were trained on Adam.
"Maybe I should move here."
She didn't say anything, but she stepped back once more. I plugged my ears as she sounded the horn. It rang out through the entire apartment. I heard something scream outside, but I ignored it. My eyes focused on Adam.
His eyes opened suddenly and he jumped out of the bed yelling, "FIRE! FIRE!" He looked at his feet to see what was stuck to them and said, "Shit! Someone did something on my floor. Nasty." He looked at his outfit and seemed speechless, at first.
"So…," He said slowly. "I'm a girl. Is this my true side?" I tried to hold back a laugh. "Wait, what's today? Oh, April fool's. He looked towards the door and said one name, "Cee Cee!"
Cee Cee looked inside and squealed. She started to run away. I followed and heard Adam say, "And Suze?"
I finally let out a laugh as we ran outside. Cee Cee was a few yards ahead of me and Adam was catching up. I saw some of the early joggers staring at us, laughing our heads off, then glancing at Adam. They would look at him like he was crazy, but it just made me laugh even harder.
Me and Cee Cee ran to the location we picked out and ran behind the tree. Adam was having trouble running in the dress. Cee Cee put her had on the rope and waited for Adam to fall into place.
Once he got there, we pulled the string and we watched as a bucket of purple paint came out and splattered all over him. He was frozen in place and we pulled out our cameras and snapped loads of pictures.
Cee Cee and I were laughing so hard that we didn't even bother to run when Adam came over and gave us both a great big hug.
This would be one of the last times I would have so much fun. For a long time.

Hope you liked it. This chapter was supposed to be longer, but I would rather keep the chapters coming faster. The purple button is calling for you. Obey its calls.
