"Lulu? Hello? Are you still there?" Madeleine said worriedly into the phone.

Lulu Punchalower was extremely unsure of herself. How could she explain the news to Maddie? The fourteen-year-old had no intention of hurting her best friend. Yet, it seemed necessary to tell her at the same time. After all, it was important news...

"Yeah, I'm still here," she said, realizing that she had not responded to Madeleine.

"Oh, thank goodness. I was getting a tad worried," the British girl replied in complete relief.

"Sorry about that, Maddie," Lulu said sincerely. "I was zoning out for a second there." It was the truth, after all. Lulu was having an intense debate going on in her head, not sure what to say to Madeleine. She finally made up her mind after being silent for five long minutes.

"Lulu...? Are you still on the phone? Do you not wish to speak with me anymore?"

"What?" Lulu asked, snapping out of her debate. "No! I was just having...thoughts."

"About?" Madeleine asked curiously. "That is, if you don't mind sharing."

Lulu smiled to herself, wondering why Madeleine was always so polite, even to her friends. She sighed and said, "Look, Maddie. If you really want to know, then ask your parents if you can come down here to visit me and the others. You can ask them later. Just text me back your reply and, if you can, I'll send you a text back with my address, okay?"

Madeleine nodded, even though she knew Lulu couldn't see her, and said, "I understand. I'll ask my mum and dad once we're done talking."

"Good to hear." Lulu replied, sounding happy again.

"Oh and Lulu? I know that this isn't really important at all, but I have to tell you about this nightmare I've had. I know it may sound strange that I want to tell you about my dreams, but my dad always said it's best to have someone to talk to about things that are troubling our minds. And, well...I would talk to him about my nightmare, but that would be too embarrassing..."

Lulu shifted uncomfortably in her twin-sized bed that she was still sitting in, knowing that it might have to do with Garrison. Lulu didn't mind listening about Madeleine's nightmare. No, not at all. She was only worried about what happened in the nightmare.

"Sure," Lulu said with a forced cheerful sounding voice. "Really, I don't mind listening."

"Thank you for understanding and helping me, Lulu." Madeleine said gratefully.

"No problem," she replied. Right then and there, Madeleine described the nightmare. Well, it was a nightmare for the blue-eyed girl. Garrison had been hugging another girl. A very pretty one indeed. No, wait. She was very beautiful. And when Garrison had spotted Madeleine, he had uttered those horrible words to the young girl, still hugging the beautiful one.

"He said that he never loved me!" Madeleine sobbed into the phone after a good long description of the nightmare that had lasted a great twenty minutes. The girl was simply on the brink of going into total hysterics.

"Maddie, you're just being paranoid," Lulu chided the other girl in the nicest way she could muster. The freckle-faced girl was actually nervous herself. If Maddie was upset about this only being a dream, imagine what would happen if she found out that Garrison...

"No, don't think that. I'm just being paranoid myself," Lulu thought.

"No, I am not!" Madeleine sobbed. Not many knew, but when Madeleine Marie Masterson was upset, she had a tendency to become very weepy then suddenly angry. It wasn't the girl's fault. It was just how she handled things. And Madeleine hardly went into a state like this that often.

"Maddie, please calm down! Everything will be alright, okay! Just take a deep breath," Lulu said in a calm voice.

"Y-You are right, Lulu." she said with a sniffle. "I'm terribly sorry you had to hear me go into hysterics. Can you ever forgive my horrible behavior?"

Lulu smirked and said in a friend-like way, "Hey, don't worry about it. It happens to everyone once in a while."

"Thanks, Lulu," Madeleine said with a smile. In the next second, Madeleine heard a voice she had wanted to hear since the end of last summer.

"Lulu, who's on the phone?" said Garrison Feldman with curiosity.

"Um...I'll talk to you later, Madeleine. Don't forget to text me your answer!" Lulu said nervously before hanging up. Madeleine hadn't bothered to say goodbye. Her heart was racing with joy and happiness.

She immediately ran downstairs and into the living room where her parents were watching the afternoon news.

"Mummy! Daddy!I know that this may not be the exact moment to ask this, but can we go to Rhode Island tomorrow?"
