    Andy got into his car fast and went home. The black book lay on his lap while he drove. When he got to his house he saw that Will was leaving.

-"Good. Now I don't have to deal with that shit..." - he thought as he parked his car.

    Andy got out and entered his house. His parents had not arrived yet.

-"Anna, is there anything to eat?" - he asked his twin.

-"Really? Where? I couldn't find anything!" - asked Anna back.

-"You didn't cook?"

-"Nah, Sex is more fun than cooking."

-"It's your turn today! What are we supposed to do? Starve?"

-"Don't be such a drama queen. We'll send for some pizza." - said Anna happily -"Do you have any money for the pizza?"

    Andy handed her a twenty and told her to get pepperoni. He went into his room, locked the door and fell into bed with the book he had gotten in the library. Night was creeping quickly.

    Johnny sat mad. It had been so long, he couldn't believe it. He had never lost at Monopoly before.

-"Don't be sad Johnny. I'll let you stay in Park Avenue free..." - said Stephanie smiling.

-"Yeah, whatever." - said Johnny  -"What time is it?"

-"Almost 7:30." -answered Stephanie.

-"Your brother's been out the whole day. What time your mom gets here?"

-"Usually around 9pm. Listen, I'm grateful for the company, but you don't have to stay."

-"Nah, I don't wanna leave you alone." - said Johnny. -"How about a movie?"

-"Sure." - said Stephanie.

    As they walked to the living room they heard a car pull in the driveway. Johnny looked out the window and saw Jake getting out of Diana's car.

    Jake kissed Diana, both of them still smiling.

-"Today was great." - said Jake.

-"Yeah, it really was."

-"How are you feeling?" - said Jake caressing Diana's hair

-"Still hurts a little bit, but I'll survive!" -said Diana and kissed him.  -"I gotta get going. Mom and dad will be arriving soon."

-"I know. Go" -said Jake and gave her another kiss -"I love you."

-"I love you too." - said Diana as she put the car in reverse.

    Diana left and Jake waited until she wasn't in sight anymore to go inside. When he opened the door, Johnny and Stephanie were waiting for him with their arms crossed. Both of them looked mad.

-"Where have you been? Why didn't you answer your cell phone in the whole day? Why didn't you call?" - said Stephanie, but Johnny stopped her.

-"Dude, if you were smiling harder your mouth would fall off. What's wrong with you?" - Suddenly Johnny gasped -"You had sex, didn't you? Oh, you lucky bastard! She said yes?"

    Jake only smiled at him.

-"Oh, God! You finally convinced her?" - asked Stephanie 

-"What? How do you...?" - asked Jake.

-"I'm ten, not stupid!" 

-"Yeah, we agree on something. You're smarter than you should be!" - said Jake as he pinched Stephanie's cheek.

-"Dude, would you stop smiling? It's creepy!" - said Johnny laughing.

-"I can't! It was so....perfect!" - said Jake

-"Mom's early!" -said Stephanie when she heard another car pulling over in the driveway.

-"Then let's change the subject, shall we?" - said Jake -"What did you guys do today?"

-"Got my butt whipped at Monopoly." -said Johnny.

    The keys rattled in the door and Mrs. Johnson entered the house.

-"You can keep talking. I'll be in the kitchen." - she said when everyone grew silent.

    The three of them laughed.

-"Can I ask what's so funny?" - she asked.

-"Mom, you'll never guess what!" - said Stephanie.

    Jake and Johnny looked at each other, but it was too late. Stephanie was going to talk soon enough! Jake put his hand on his face and looked down. Johnny laughed.

-"Diana was finally convinced!" - asked Mrs. Johnson

    Jake looked dumb folded at his mom. His mouth opened in shock.

-"Oh, honey. I'm your mother, not stupid." - she said putting some groceries on the table.

    Johnny bent over laughing.  Jake hit his friend on the head and stood up from the chair he was sitting on. He said:

-"If anybody needs me, get over it. I'll be sleeping in my room." -said Jake smiling as he went upstairs.

*********************************************************

-"What was so urgent? It's already night, you know?" - said Christie when she arrived at Diana's.

    Diana smiled at her. She didn't know how to say it. Christie looked at her face, and like Johnny she gasped.

-"No! You? Sex?" - said Christie.

    Diana smiled shyly and nodded.

-"I can't believe it. Between you and me, I thought you were gonna end up like a nun..." - said Christie.

    Christie's cell began ringing. She answered it and after a pause she yelled:

-"Yeah, I'm on my way! Yeez!" - and she hung up.  -"Sorry, parents! We'll talk tomorrow, and you better tell me everything."

    Christie said goodbye and left. Diana stayed alone until her parents got home. Neither of them noticed anything different on Diana's smile. At 11pm, Diana's parents turned on the news. Diana was upstairs in her room when she heard her mother scream her name. Diana ran downstairs.

-"What is it mom? Everything okay?" - she asked.

    Her mom pointed at the TV set. A picture of Principal Walker was on the TV.

-"Apparently, Principal Walker was attacked by whatever that thing is." -said Diana's father.

-"Oh, my God! Is he okay?" 

-"Sorry, sweetie. They found him dead about half an hour ago in his house." - said Diana's mom. -"The school is gonna be closed tomorrow. Do you want us to stay here with you?"

-"No, that's okay. I'll go to Christie's." - said Diana as she went back upstairs.

    Her cell phone was blinking, which meant she had a missed call. Jake's name popped into the tiny screen. She dialed the Jake's number.  After a few minutes talking, Diana said:

-"I can't help noticing some stuff..."

-"About what, babe?" - said Jake knowing about what she was talking.

-"The attacks. Whoever is doing all this must be from school..."

-"What makes you say that?" - Jake's voice sounded as if he would prefer talking about anything else.

-"Well, first it was Claire, then Rachel and now the principal."

-"Honey, you are being paranoid. What about the guy that was attacked right after Claire."

-"He was a night janitor at the school. The Board thought it would freak the students to know, but since my dad is in the Board..."

-"But, who would target those people? Babe, you are letting your imagination win. Listen, I'll talk to you tomorrow. I'm really tired."

-"Yeah, me too. Love you!"

-"Love you too."
