A/N: I'm back! I just wanted to clear up a few things, I know in most stories Freeze Girl is either with Warren or some evil chick, but I never planned her to be. She doesn't seem crazy in the movie, but I guess I shouldn't judge a book by it's cover because neither did Gwen at first. Anyway, in this story she's nice a Potterhead and a good friend of the gang, it's okay if you don't like it, I don't mind, not everyone will agree with you. Thank you's all so much for the reviews. It really brightens my day:)

Dangerously Paranoid Chapter 4: A woman of 100 words

"Hey Gramps." I said with a smile as I tossed my bag on the couch and walked into the kitchen.

"Allycat." He said with a smile as he poured milk in his tea.

"Where's Lindz?" I asked sitting down as he put tea infront of me.

"Cheerleading practice." He replied sitting at the opposite end of the table from me and sipping from his mug.

"Of coarse." I said with a sigh, I then noticed Duke walking into the kitchen calmly. The odd thing is he's a really smart dog, he's calm and relaxed when he wants to be.

"So where are you off to tonight?" Gramps asked eating a cookie.

"How d-... Oh right, Paper Lantern. I need to finish a Mad Science essay." I explained, he probably seen me at the resteraunt or leaving in a vision.

"With a boy?" He added, Gramps has never been fond of me and Lindsay being near boys. He especially hated my ex-boyfriend Mark.

"My Mad Science partner, who is of the opposite sex yes, but worrying is something an old man like you should never do." I smirked trying to cool down my tea.

"It's not you I worry for." He explained watching the sugar bowl float to where we sat. I needed more sugar so I used my power to get it, I often think of powers as 'If you have them use them, if not it's a waist.'

"I won't be kicking serious butt today unless he get's on my nerves more than usual." I shrugged.

"Alright, did you get your homework done?" Gramps asked.

"I just got home, but yes. I finished most of it on the bus. I think I'm going to take Duke for a walk." I said standing up.

"Okay," He said with a smile as I entered the foyer and put on my boots before calling Duke.

"I have something for you. I picked it up today." I said with a mischevious smile as I reached into my pocket.

Duke didn't look excited or happy, just a little bit curious and some what worried. I smiled and pulled out a large black leather collar, that has a silver tag with 'Duke' written in bold letters on it and my phone number written on the back. I held it out for him to sniff it.

"If you don't wanna' wear it you don't have to." I said.

He lifted up his large head and stretched his neck, my guess is giving me permission to put it on him. Slowly and carefully I wrapped my arms around his kneck and buckled on the collar. It fit perfectly and was large and thick, noticable enough to realize he had a home.

"There," I said standing up straight. "it looks good, you might even attract some girl dogs." I laughed grabbing my book that I layed on the shelf before opening the front door. I walked out first, then Duke. He trailed by my side at my pace. I was amazed at first that he didn't need a leash, he is only 2 and usually two year old dogs are quite energetic. Usually running around and barking and whining.

Duke is obidient and smart, sometimes I wonder if he was a human in a past life or something, but I guess being abused as a puppy and living in alleyways is a way to take away the dog's happiness. I just wish I could get passed his trust issues and get him to relax, maybe let me pet him or something. I guess I shouldn't rush him, he's not used to having a family, a home and someone there for him.

As we walked along the sidewalk on the beautiful sunny day in Maxville I buried my nose in my book. I've currently been reading The Frankentein Series by Dean Koontz. The books are amazing, I love Koontz's work. Along with Darren Shan and Steven King.

"Hey Ally," A male voice, but a young one. I looked up to see Will and Layla walking in my direction with an excited Max on a little red leash.

"Hey," I said as the approached. I wasn't sure how Duke would react to other dogs so I made sure to keep our distance.

"What are you doing tonight?" Will asked with a smile.

"I have to finish working on my Mad Science essay, why?" I asked, Will and Layla and the others are Sophmores, Me, Warren and Kate are Juniors so those lucky ducks don't have to do the essay for Medulla.

"Oh, well maybe tomorrow then we should all go to the movies. I was hoping to see the new Pirates of the Carribean." Will explained.

"Sure, what time?" I asked.

"Uhm, I think it's starts at 7:45. I'll text you okay?" Will replied.

"Okay, well I gotta go. See you Will, Layla." We said our goodbyes. Duke and I kept walking, I've always enjoyed just walking. Not thinking, not worrying, not caring.

It helps that paranoia, that eerie feeling of something about to happen, sometimes it's so bad I just want to lock myself up in my room and never leave. But still, it wouldn't stop the fate of danger.

After about an hour of walking I decided it was time we headed home. We walked through town and then back home. I changed into a sweater and a pair of jeans, just the usual when I'm around the house. I needed to meet Peace at the Paper Lantern at 8:00. I kind of forgot about that until now. Oh well,

I walked downstairs and put on my sneakers and grabbing my school bag before leaving. "I'll be back soon Gramps." I said opening the front door and walking into the night air.

Will texted me the directions to the Paper Lantern so I could find the place. I also have to walk, I never really bothered getting my lisence in New York. I either took a taxi, subway or a bus to where I wanted to go, but living here now I really think I should get one. I walked into the city for about fifteen minutes before I found the chinese resteraunt.

It was cute and seemingly a professional place. With Chinese decor and pictures all over the walls.

"Hello, My name is Sam. Could I get you a booth or a table?" The seemingly nice Asian woman asked.

"Uhm is Warren here?" I question.

"Yes, one moment." She said with a bit of an annoyed look on her face before walking into the kitchen. The place looks kind of empty, well it is 8 at night so I guess I shouldn't expect too many people.

"Next time spend your time with your girlfriend while you're not at work." Sam said sternly brushing passed Warren.

"Uhm, yeah excuse me! I am not! His girlfriend." I pointed out to Sam.

"Whatever." Warren said with a shrug before walking to a booth near the back.

I growled and followed him.

"So you'll work on the summary at the beginning and I'll finish the last paragraph and then it's done." I said taking out my stuff and sliding into the booth across from him.

"Yep," He said in his deep voice looking through the text book.

His few words is really getting on my nerves. I started writting and noticing how nice this resteraunt is, I'd eat here... Even though Peace works here, I'll just come on his days off.

How would I know when he's not working?

I can't learn his schedule, that would be wierd and creepy.

I guess I can't, oh well..

After Looking over the essay and correcting any mistakes I made sure it was perfect. Like I said I care about my school work, I want a good grade.

"Finally done," I said stacking the papers together.

He just grunted before getting up.

"You are driving me insane!" I growled standing up quickly in a accusing sort of way.

"You think you're sooo cool with your 'whatevers' and 'Uh huhs', are you that incapable of speaking?" He looked taken a back.

Yes, I, calm Allison Marie Griffin can get a little cranky, but only when pushed over the edge.

"K don't answer that, bye." I said lifting my bag over my shoulder and walking out.

He just stood there with that little smirk on his face, I could just rip it off. I exited the resteraunt and walked into the cool air.

Nothing like getting mad at people to brighten your day, or night.. or ya know... afternoon? I got home and went up to my room. I tied my hair up and washed my face before changing into a pair of sweats and a baggy Yankees tshirt.

As I passed my sidetable I noticed my picture of mom. Evelynn Griffin, I guess I'll tell you the tale.. After I was born my father walked off the face of the earth, not literally. He disapeared and I've never met him, 2 years later she married a local buisnessman named Greg Jameson, when I was five and Lindsay was two they got into a car accident driving to the airport and later died in the hopsital. Grams and Gramps took us in and raised us, Grams died two years ago of heart disease. Now it's just Gramps.

Lindsay uses the last name Jameson, because rightfully it's her name. Greg was never my father and I prefer to go by Griffin.

The next day

"You have friends!" Lindsay said bewildered as Ally, Layla, Majenta and Kate entered the house.

"Who would've guessed." Ally said sarcasticly as they started walking up to her room.

"I'm so excited to see Pirates 4, I mean it's no Harry Potter but I lovveeeee Johnny Depp!" Kate said excitedly.

"Same, he's so witty." Ally said putting on a long black cardigan sweater that seperates in the middle over a green shirt. A pair jeans and her black boots.

"And hot." Majenta shrugged putting her hair into a bun.

"He's like 47." Layla said in a laugh.

"He's still hot, especially for 47." Majenta said smiling.

"Well let's go we're gunna miss the opening previews." Kate said.

They all stopped to give her a wierd look.

"What? I like the previews." She shrugged as they walk downstairs.

"K gramps we're going to the movies." Ally called as she opened the front door.

"Take it." She heard her grandfather yell back, she was confuse until she looked down to see Duke holding up a twenty dollar bill in his soggy mouth.

"Ew," Ally said picking it up. "Thank you! Good boy Duke." Ally said before exiting.

"Your dog is so cute, and massive. It looks like a horse, but with paws." Kate said with a smile.

"Alright then." Ally said laughing.

"That's your car?" Ally said wide-eyed, parked at the curb a new Ford Mustang in dark red.

"Yep, Daddy bought it for me for grading last year." Kate said turning on the car and smiling.

"Wow," Ally said shaking her head.

They turned up the radio and sang every word to every song they knew as they drove to the Maxville Cinema. They got out of the car and entered the theatres.

"Hey," Kate said as she noticed her boyfriend Alex with the guys, Zack, Warren, Will and Ethan.

"Hey," He said giving her a kiss.

"Hi guys," Ally said as they formed a little group.

"You's are late." Will said with a playful smile to Layla.

"It wasn't our fault," Layla shrugged.

"Yeah it takes a while to look this good." Kate laughed making the girls to do the same.

They talked as they waited in line for their food and to pay for their tickets. Ally couldn't help but tap her foot impatiently.

"I'm sorry about this."

Someone said, but before she could find out who said it she was pulled into a kiss by a good looking colledge guy with shaggy blonde hair and wearing a grey shirt, his friends ran and then caught up to him. Everyone watched as the guy pulled away from stunned Ally and crossed something off his paper.

"Hurry." One of his friends said dragging him away.

"Sorry! I'm doing a challenge!" The guy yelled giving the call me hand signal and running off with his friends.

"Ally? Who was that?" Layla said with a huge smirk on her face, they all looked at the wide-eyed brunnette.

"I have no idea, this is the weirdest city ever." She said walking ahead in the line.

Everyone laughed, she just rolled her eyes and growled.

"I can't believe that just happened!" Kate said to Ally.

"Wow!" Ethan said looking around the crowded theatre.

"What are you looking for, Popsicle?" Warren asked him.

"A girl doing a challenge." Ethan said still searching with his eyes making them laugh.

They got their popcorn and tickets and went into the theatre. Finding a an empty row in the back they took their seats.

Will, Layla, Kate, Alex, Ethan, Zack, Majenta, Ally and then Warren in that order.

After the movie they all gathered out of the theatre and into the cinema.

"I loved that one, Jack was funnier than ever." Kate said with a smile.

"I really liked it." Ally said.

"K my moms here, bye." Zack kissed Majenta on the cheek. "Bye guys." He said jogging off to his mom's car.

Ally noticed one by one the group started going home until it was just Ally, Layla and Warren.

"Do you's need a ride?" Layla asked noticing her mom.

"No thanks I'll walk, it's not far and I like the fresh air. I'm not used to the lack of poluted air here." Ally said in a laugh.

"I have my car." Warren muttered.

"Okay then see you's." Layla said walking off, after she left Warren walked towards his car.

"Get in." He said plainly using his keys to unlock it.

The 72 roadrunner in metallic black. 'Why does everyone but me have nice cars?' Ally thought to herself.

"I said I was walking." She stated.

"In the dark? Get in." Warren said getting in his car.

Ally sighed and got in the passengers seat. "So why the sudden generousity?" She asked looking over at him.

"If you're that hooked on walking then I'll pull over." Warren growled.

"Answer the question." Ally growled back. He just ignored it.

"Where do you live?" He asked.

"Right next to Will's." She replied.

She couldn't figure him out, he's to himself but can be outspoken? He's selfish but generous? All to confusing for her to think about.

"You never let me say anything before you flipped out the other night." Warren said keeping his eyes on the road.

"Say it then." She said.

"I don't get you." He said looking over at her as he pulled into her driveway.

"Me?"

"One minute you're calm and nice and the next you're telling me off?" He explained.

"You're the confusing one, one minute you're all bad-ass and yet you read and do good at school?" She asked.

He just leaned back in the seat and looked like he was in deep thought.

"Thanks for the ride." Ally said opening the door and getting out but not yet closing it.

She leaned in and smiled.

"Confusion now hath made his masterpiece."
