The two weeks went by fast, and it was time for Bam to go to the middle school and sign Sami up.
"Sami! Wake up, babe!" Novak said, standing in her doorway. "Bam's cooking breakfast now." Sami groaned and rolled over so she could look up at Novak. "Come on." he said.
"Aack, you sound like my mom when you do that." she repiled, laughing.
"Well, I don't want to have to drag you downstairs"
"I don't care, you can drag me. I don't feel like walking." He laughed and walked over and scooped Sami up. She ran her downstairs, with her laughing the whole time.
"What the hell?" Bam said, laughing as he watched Novak zoom down the stairs with Sami in his arms.
"She wouldn't get out of bed, and didn't feel like walking." Novak replied, kissing Sami on the forehead and setting her down. She and Novak developed a great friendship for the two weeks she was there. They got along great and worked well together when it came time to prank Bam.
"Well, come on then. Breakfast is ready." Sami and Novak sat down at the bar and Bam served breakfast. Eggs and bacon.
"Whoo!" Sami yelled, picking up her fork.
"Well, that was random." Bam said, laughing.
5 minutes later, they finished their breakfast and Bam and Sami drove off to the middle school in West Chester.
"Do we have to?" Sami asked, looking up at Bam with a pout. Bam always sided with her when she did that but this time, he couldn't.
"Don't give me that face. We have to go and sign you up." he replied. She sighed and slowly opened the car door. Bam started laughing. "I know you aren't that slow! Hurry your ass up." Sami laughed and ran over to Bam, tackling him in the parking lot.
They both walked into the white building and into the office. The secretary greeted them.
"Hi, how may I help you?" she asked.
"Uh, we're here to register a student." Bam replied, pointing at Sami.
"Okay, are you..." she looked at her list, "Ross?"
"Yeah"
"Alright, follow me." The secretary got up and walked into the principal's office. "Sit down here, and she'll be with you in a few minutes. She's making copies in the copy room." Sami and Bam nodded and the secretary walked out of the room.
"I guess everyone's in class right now." Sami said, breaking the silence.
"Yeah. I remember this place so well...I hated it." Bam laughed, looking around the room.
"I take it you came in here all the time?"
"Yep, almost twice every week." Sami snickered and turned her head to see a small, old woman walk through the door.
"Well...I wouldn't expect to see you here again, Mr. Margera." she said, patting him on the shoulder.
"Oh, wow. You're still principal-ing here?" Bam said, not knowing if principaling was a word. She laughed.
"Yes, I am. Is this your daughter?" Sami looked up and Bam, not knowing what he was going to say.
"Yeah, she is my daughter." Bam put his arm around her and grinned, causing Sami to snort.
"Well, I can see the resemblance. Both of you have the same interests, obviously." She looked at Sami in her pink Element shirt and Bam in his black Element shirt. Both of them had baggy jeans and Adios on. The principal turned away and got some papers for Bam to sign and papers so Sami could choose her elective classes.
30 minutes later, Bam and Sami were done and they said good-bye to Mrs. Brown, the principal.
"I'll see you on Monday, Sami." she said, waving. Sami waved back and walked out the door with Bam and into the Lambo.
"Mrs. Brown...that's original." Sami said, getting into the car. Bam laughed and drove home. They drove up the driveway and gasped at what they saw.
"What in the fuck is going on!" Bam said, growing angry. An ambulance and 5 police cars were sitting in the snake run driveway. The first thing Sami thought about was...Novak. Since Bam was too shocked to move, Sami opened the car door and ran out to go inside the house. Before she could, a police man stopped her.
"Don't go in there. It's too dangerous." he said, holding an arm out to block Sami from going in the door. Sami decided that getting in trouble with the police didn't scare her. She took a deep breath and ducked under the police man's arm and ran straight into the lounge where there was POLICE LINE DO NOT CROSS tape all around the entrance to the Pirate Bar. She walked slowly to the landing. Everything seemed to go in slow motion once she started walking. It seemed like forever and a day went by when she finally got there. She looked down over the railing and was speechless. Scared and speechless.
