Laney woke up and looked around. "Where am I?" she said to herself. She walked under the curtain and saw Corey writing music. (Remember, she still thinks Corey is dead so she doesn't know that's him.) Laney walked up to him and smiled. "Laney! Laney!" She heard Kin and Kon screaming her name. Corey stood up, "Come we must return, tell no one about me," he said. Laney nodded and she went back up to her room and covered the gateway to the lair with a blanket that she pinned on the wall. "Laney where were you?!" Kin asked. "We were worried sick!" "Sorry," Laney said. "Why was you door locked?" Larry asked. "I wanted to be alone because I was crying," Laney lied. "Who was that in there with you?" Larry asked. "That was my I Phone playing music," lied Laney again. "Oh," Larry said. "Today's Corey's funeral," Kin said. "Are you gonna go?" Laney felt her eyes tearing up again. "Sorry I asked," Kin said. "No it's ok," Laney said wiping her eyes. "No I'm not." "I'm gonna wait till everyone leaves, I need to see Corey's grave alone." Kin and Kon nodded. Larry went up to Laney and hugged her, "It's gonna be ok," he said. Then he gave her a kiss on the cheek. Rage filled Corey when he saw Larry kiss Laney on the cheek. The boys left and Laney sat on her bed and stared at the blanket that covered the entry to the phantom's lair. After an hour she had to go. She put on a long sleeved black dress, black boots, and a black cloak. She grabbed Corey's hat and a rose and went to the graveyard.
