"I have to go," she said frantically, pulling away from me.
"Ms. Morgan!" Madame Dabney said as she, again, walked passed us.
"I mean," Cammie said, putting on a sizzling smile and turning back to me. "if you could excuse me for a moment."
I held onto her hand.
"Thank you very much for the dance," she said and then walked away, leaving me standing there more confused than before.
I watched as she got stopped by several people then frowned. Where was she going? Where was her favorite place to be?
Aha! The library! I smirked to myself triumphantly and neatly made my way out of the crowd and out the door. I didn't see her on her way to the library but I knew she was going to be there so I walked faster, hoping to beat her there.
I leaned against the wall, waiting for her. Finally, she came in and a sigh of relief blew through her mouth but her eyes immediately widened with fear when she saw me. Was she afraid of me?
"Hey, Gallagher Girl, I thought I'd find you here."
"What are you doing here?" she asked, biting her lip and looking nervous.
"Looking for you," I said. Obviously.
"Why?" she asked, the horror leaving her face for a moment to be replaced by confusion.
"Because this is where you came the other day."
"Oh."
"I thought this might be where you come…when you're upset."
I honestly wish I knew she was afraid of…I might actually be able to help her.
"So what is it, Gallagher Girl?" I asked.
Two very weird things happened then.
One, I could have sworn I heard a soft thump under Cammie's feet. What that was, I had no clue.
But I had no time to wonder because then, a siren went off and the words "CODE BLACK CODE BLACK CODE BLACK!" about blew my ears straight off my head.
Then the lights went out.
Liikkkeee? Short, I know but I wanted to save the exciting stuff for next chapter. You know, so we can have it all together!
Leave me a review?
