"Okay." Jackie started, "Enough with the ghost stories. Especially the maid's here, their freaking me out."

"I can't help it if it seems too much like through a ghost's perspective." Inez replied.

"Please?" Jackie begged.

"Oh, alright." Inez sighed.

Oh Oh Uh Uh
I turn around again
And suddenly your gone
I wanna get to know you
But I don't know who you are
Your the kind of girl
Who makes me stop and lose my mind
I wanna get together but your
Oh so hard to find

"Don't you think it's a little to girly, Jacs?" Matt frowned, fidgeting with his flashlight.

"Even boys do this at a young age, Matt." Jackie replied, "Just live with it. Besides, I'm sure you will really like the next game."

"Which is?" Matt questioned.

"What's your name?" Jackie replied.

Inez paused. That didn't sound good...

Inez didn't want to lie, and she wasn't allowed to blow her cover either. There were no name tags on the maids' clothes whenever there was work, so that wasn't such a blow off. And if she hesitates, Matt and Jackie will suspect something.

"Matt, you start." Jackie said.

"Alright." Matt sighed, thinking it was a dumb game, "I saw a girl at the coffee shop two days ago. She was with a group of girls and two men, who seemed to be trying to lead them in the right direction. The girls didn't seem to listen."

I see you when I'm at the Starbucks
As your walkin' out the door
I see you when I'm rentin' movies
When your leaving the store
I need an opportunity
There's something I wanna ask
I never seem to ever get the chance

"There was one girl in the group, that really caught my eye." Matt continued, "She looked a lot like an old friend of mine. I actually mistakened her for her." - Matt shone the flashlight's beam in Inez's direction - "What's your name?"

Inez froze in shock. So much for good luck.

What's your name?
What's your name?
Oh, I really wanna know
You got me going crazy
And I want you more and more
Oh, hey this could be something real
I gotta let you know the way I feel

What's your name?
What's your name?
Oh I really wanna know
'Cause everytime I get there
But it's right before you go
Oh, hey if only you could see
I wanna get to know you
And to get you knowing me

"Eek!" Inez squealed as the beam of light blinded her through her glasses, "Since when did you see me and my friends having a meeting with our legal guardians?" Okay, total lie. But it's a good cover.

"While I was at the coffee shop, like I said." Matt replied with a smile, "I was sitting at the patio next to me. Right, boy?"

Obi barked in agreement.

"See what I mean?" Matt continued, "Hey, the coffee shop wasn't the only place I thought I saw you."

"Oh?" Inez suddenly got interested, "And what other times did you see me?"

"While I was back in New York, I used to hang out at the mall to clear my mind from past tragedies." Matt explained, "While I was there, I saw the exact same group of girls, and you were in there. You seemed to be glancing at me several times, I wonder why?"

"Don't expect me to tell you." Inez replied playfully.

Whoa
See you at the mall
You hanging out with all your friends
I'm waiting to make my move
You go before I get the chance
You know you got me tripping
Thinking 'bout you day and night
But I can't get to know you
If you don't know I'm alive

"Matt, didn't you say you saw the maid on the beach once?" Jackie said, "She was walking along the shoreline in a white dress, according to your description."

"You saw me there, too?" Inez blurted out.

"Of course I saw you there!" Matt replied, lowering the flashlight, "You were the only one walking in a straight line along the shoreline. Not to mention you're not hard to miss. After all, you do look a lot like a person I remember having a crush on."

Inez felt both embarrassed and flattered at the same time. Looks like Matt really did like her back.

"Ooh, someone's embarrassed." Jackie laughed.

I see you when you're at the beach
And your loading up the car
I see you when I'm at the concert
When the lights go dark
There's something I got to find out
If I ever get the chance
There's only three words I wanna ask

"I'm still not answering!" Inez cried.

"C'mon, Nezzie!" Matt teased, "It's only three words!"

The three got silenced. Matt's sly smile suddenly faded.

Matt cleared his throat. "Sorry." he apologized sheepishly, "You just looked like her."

"Uh..." Inez was practically speechless. She gulped hard. Was Matt able to see through her? Even with her unusual disguise?

"I-it's okay." Inez managed to stutter, "It doesn't matter." - Inez spotted a picture frame beside Obi's sleeping body. She picked it up. - "Is this her?"

"Yeah." Matt replied, trying to look away from the picture of him and Inez together on the ice rink that Jackie took a picture of, "That's her. She was a great skater."

Inez forced a smile.

After a short silence, Matt said, "Okay, where were we?"

What's your name?
What's your name?
Oh, I really wanna know
Cause everytime I get there
But it's right before you go
Oh, hey if only you could see
I wanna get to know you
And to get you knowing me

"Um, let's continue to game tomorrow night." Inez said. She got out of the tent, and stepped out the door.

Matt began to feel horrible. He somehow knew what caused the girl to get sensitive. He ran after her through the door.

"Wait!" Matt called, "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!"

Inez whirled around to see the teen running after her.

"Um..." Matt choked out, "Ahem. I... never really got to see your hair down. Y'know. Not in a formal bun, according to Jackie."

This just made Inez more nervous.

"Uh..." Inez said sheepishly, "You... wouldn't wanna see it, trust me."

"C'mon." Matt said, "If I can't get to know your name, can I at least see your hair down?"

"If I put my hair down, would you stop asking me what my name is?" Inez asked.

"It's a done deal." Matt replied.

Oh Oh Yeah No No No
Oh
Now wait up
Oh no, don't go away now
Too late
I missed your name girl
Oh no, don't go please
'Cause I'm the one you need

Inez just smiled. "Don't think I'll fall for it."

"Hey!" Matt's reflexes grabbed onto Inez's hair clip as she was walking away, unraveling her chestnut hair. Inez's body began to faintly glow.

Oh no, don't go
I've got to
Tell you
How 'bout I want you
All I need
Is a chance
Another opportunity to ask

Inez gasped. She set her hair back to a bun and snatched the pin from Matt's hands. She put it back up.

"What was that?" Matt asked.

"What was what?" Inez asked nervously.

"That... glow." Matt explained, "The minute I released your hair pin, your body began to glow!"

"Really?" Inez said, trying to hide her nerves, "I didn't see my arms glow. That means my body didn't glow. It was probably just your imagination. Get some rest. You'll feel better in the morning."

"But-" Matt began.

"Get some rest." Inez insisted, "Goodnight. I'll see you in the morning. By the way, where are we going tomorrow?"

Matt thought about it. "The ice rink."

Inez's heart sank. She tried her best not to show it.

"Oh." Inez replied, "Well, then, I'll bring my skates. You're not gonna bring a saw with you, are you?"

"What?" Matt questioned.

"N-nothing!" Inez replied, "Goodnight! See ya in the morning!"

What's your name?
What's your name?
Oh I really wanna know
You got me going crazy
And I want you more and more
Oh hey this could be something real
I gotta let you know the way I feel

What's your name?
What's your name?
Oh I really wanna know
Cuz everytime I get there
But it's right before you go
Oh hey if only you could see
I wanna get to know you
And to get you knowing me

What's your name
What's your name girl
Oooh, ooooh yeah

Woo
That's it
Ladies goodnight

As Inez ran down the hall and made a turn, her mind began scolding her.

Nice job, Inez! You just gave Matt the suggestion of suicide! Next time, don't say anything about what you're supposed to prevent!

"You're not the best with this, aren't you?"

Inez yelped and turned to see Andrew, sitting on a couch in the living room, glowing faintly.

Inez sighed. "Why must I always glow whenever my hair is released from the pin?" she asked, "Even with a ponytail, I have to use the pin."

"That pin is a seal." Andrew explained, "Of course, Matt didn't know that. What you did would've fooled anyone. But Matt struggled through too many lies from Julianna and Kevin that her knows when even an angel is telling a lie. Knowing that it's from his secret lover would be harsh."

"I had to, Andrew." Inez said.

"I know you had to." Andrew replied, "But, tomorrow, I must warn you. Matt can't take it anymore. He's going to drown himself in the ice rink at precisely midnight tomorrow night. There will be no sleepover that night. You have to save him, and show your true identity by then. You will only have one chance. That's it, Inez."

"I understand, Andrew." Inez replied, "But, how can I save him?"

"I saved my sister from a gunshot before." Elizabeth said, appearing out of nowhere, "I'm sure you'll be able to deal with this one."

"And trust me." Grace said, appearing beside Elizabeth, "I've seen a lot of angels complete their first assignments, and they have a ton after that with different people and different assignments. This will be your toughest one. Nothing to worry about. If Elizabeth can save a life, so can you."

"Just have faith in yourself, Inez." Andrew said, standing up, "We'll be there at the time when he will be ready. Especially Raymond."

"Let's just hope he doesn't cry again." Grace frowned.

Inez giggled. "Let's hope not."

The angels smiled, then disappeared. Inez released her pin, and disappeared after them, by turning into a dove made of light, and flying through the ceiling.
