Thursday
It was a Thursday morning, Claire was walking through Forget-Me-Not-Valley. She was saying hi to everyone in the village. Now she was going to see Carter and Flora. It was raining lightly but it was hot at the same time.
Claire walked north past Vesta's to Carter and Flora's tent. When she got to the tent Flora and Carter were standing outside the tent. They were surprised to see her.
"You came at a good time, Claire!" Carter exclaimed.
"For…what?" Claire asked confused.
"Thanks for coming Jill and Claire," Flora said.
Jill? Claire thought as she spun around. Jill was standing behind her with her hands on her hips.
"Did you follow me?" Claire demanded.
"No! I was just saying hi to the neighbors," Jill replied.
"Anyway, we got a note from Phantom Skye," Flora announced.
"Really? What did it say?" Claire asked, eagerly. She wanted to hear what her Skye said. Her Skye and not Jill's.
"At Midnight I'll be helping myself to the valuables in your tent, Phantom Skye," Carter repeated what the Phantom had said. "That two-bit, good for nothing snake-in-the-grass of a thief!"
Flora patted Carter's back. "Calm down, Carter,"
Carter sighed.
Skye always says the most romantic words! Claire thought dreamily.
Flora starts to tear up. "We'll be set back for days if he steals our artifacts!"
"Calm down, Flora," Carter pats Flora's back. "I have a plan! If you lend us a hand we can catch that thief! What do you say, Jill, Claire?"
"Of course we'll help!" exclaims Jill.
Claire rolls her eyes. "No doubt,"
"Thank you so much!" Flora hugs them both.
"Glad to hear it," Carter says. "Come see us between 10 and 12, okay?"
Jill and Claire both nod. Then they say their goodbyes before leaving.
"Why don't you just stay home tonight," Jill said suddenly.
Claire stopped walking. "Excuse me?"
"Skye is mine, Claire. I saw him first!" she shouted.
"But he loved me first," Claire said. Who does she think she is? She thought. I don't care if she saw him first! I know he loves me and not her!
Jill pointed a finger at her. "He's mine and don't you forget it!" she then rushes away.
Claire rolls her eyes.
