Emma didn’t enjoy having to add David to their group since his partner was possessed. But she sighed.
Then, David’s communicator went off. Emma kind of recognized the ringtone. She had no idea how she knew, but it was the Fable theme. (I’ll explain this game later)
“What?” David answered.
“It’s a text, Smart One.” Kiki pointed out.
“Oh.” David checked his messages.
A text from Wally. It said. I DID IT! David frowned. What the fluff was this?
“What is it?” Kiki asked curiously.
“IDK, but it seems suspicious.”
“Maybe he means he finally completed a serum to make you smarter than him.” Emma joked.
Kiki snickered.
“Shut up.” David said. “You may be hot, but you’re mean.”
“Ewe, gross.” Emma said.
“Ugh, stop fighting!” Kiki hollered.
“You do know you just laughed at my joke, right?” Emma sighed.
“SHUT UP!” David screamed.
“You’ll wake up the ghosts!” Emma yelled.
“GHOSTS DON’T SLEEP!” Kiki screamed.
The kids began arguing with each other. But little did they know, Ghost Christian was above them, and he was eyeing them. Kiki was about to slap David. She noticed Christian.
She screamed.
“Oh, what now?” David asked.
Kiki pointed up.
“Oh, that.” David said. He took off running.
“Wuss.” Kiki said.
“We should follow him.” Emma said.
“Yes, let’s.” Kiki said.
And the girls took off after him.

“I’m booooooored.” Hoagie said.
“Cool.” Megan said.
“I’m huuuuuuungry.”
“Amazing.”
“I’m tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiired.”
“Fantabulous.”
“Go out with me.”
“Great- NO!” Megan yelled.
“Darn. So close.” Hoagie crossed his arms.
Then, he got a text on his communicator.
“What the-?” Hoagie looked at the message that said: I DID IT! Hoagie’s eyebrow lifted. Megan looked.
“A text from Wally?”
“Ya.” Hoagie said. He thought for a minute.
“Don’t hurt yourself there, sonny.” Megan chuckled.
“I KNOW!” Hoagie screamed.
“Know what?” Megan asked.
“I know what the text means.”
“What?”
“Wally told Kuki he likes her.”
“WHAT?!?!?!?!!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?” Megan screamed.
“Ya.” Hoagie said. “And the weird font means he kissed her. Here, look it.”
Megan got dizzy, then, woozy, then she felt like she was gonna pass out.
“You OK?” Hoagie asked, putting his hand on Megan’s shoulder.
Megan moved his hand. “Ya, just the thought of them kissing? BLECH! And besides, they’re 5th Graders.”
“Kacey said that when she was in 3rd Grade, some 4th Graders had a make-out session on the field. They got a referral.” Hoagie said.
“Ewww, TMI.” Megan said.
“Ya, kids are gross these days.” Hoagie said.
“You’re best friend just kissed someone!” Megan yelled.
“Oh, ya.”
“And you’re not mad?” Megan asked.
“Why would I be mad?” Hoagie asked.
“Um, you do realize that Wally will be hanging out with Kuki more often.” Megan said. “Y’know, dates, parks, and movies. They’re gonna start goin’ out.”
“It’s one kiss, they’re not gonna start going out.” Hoagie said as they were walking.
“Don’t you know anything? The first kiss starts everything.”
“No.”
“Yes.”
“How do you know?”
“My cousin kissed the girl he had a crush on. Then, they started going out.” Megan explained. “They’re going steady now.”
“OK 1.) Going steady? What are we in, the 1970’s? And 2.) Ya, but he’s 15.” Hoagie said. “Wally’s 11.”
“Whatever.” Hoagie shrugged.

“Hey, I gotta go.” Raleigh said.
“Go home? We’re in a haunted house! IN THE MIDDLE!” Kacey said.
“I mean I gotta tinkle.” Raleigh said.
“Ewww, gross. I’ll text Wally and find out where the bathroom is.” Kacey said. She texted Wally.
“Where’s the bathroom?” Kacey texted.
“IDK.” Wally texted back. “Guess what?”
“I don’t give a crap, just where is it?” Kacey texted angrily.
“Oh, it’s upstairs, past the bedroom, and across from the closet.”
“Is the door open?”
“Yes.”
“Mm k.” Kacey texted. “What did you wanna tell me?”
“Oh ya, I told Kuki how I feel, and kissed her!”
Kacey didn’t text back.
“Hello?” Wally texted. “Kacey?”
“Raleigh?” Kacey asked.
“You find out where the potty room is? Cuz I’m gonna pee myself!”
“Ya, we have to go upstairs, go past the bedroom, and across the closet.” Kacey said.
“OK, cool.” Raleigh said. After a while, she noticed Kacey looked pale. “What’s wrong?”
“Wally texted me.” Kacey said.
“Well, duh.”
“No, I mean he said THIS.” Kacey handed Raleigh her communicator.
Raleigh’s eyes widened.
“REALLY?!?!?!”
“Yup.” Kacey said.
Now both girls were pale. Finally, they reached the bathroom. Kacey let Raleigh in, then waited. She texted the news about Wally to EVERYONE she knew. She snickered.
The replies she got were:
“WHAT?!?”
“OMG.”
“WTF?”
“Holy crap.”
“Wally? Really?”
“Who cares. It’s about time.” OK, Kacey really agreed to this one.
When Raleigh came out, Raleigh showed her the texts.
“Why’s you tell?” Raleigh asked.
“Cuz I’m his older cousin. It’s what cousins do.” Kacey said.
“Oh.” Raleigh said. “Well, cousins are mean.”
“Meaner.”
“Creeper.”
“Creeper-Meaner”
“Jerk.”
Then, the sound of a little girl laughing spooked the girls. Then, Kacey pulled out her S.P.L.A.N.K.E.R.
“What’s going on?” Raleigh asked.
Then, Valerie appeared.
“Valerie!” Kacey snapped.
“Hey, Grandma.” Valerie said.
“Grandma?” Raleigh asked.
“She’s 8.” Kacey said.
“Oh.” Raleigh said. “I was dumb when I was 8 too.”
Kacey cracked up.
“Shut up!” Valerie screamed.
“Wait, why are you… floating?” Kacey asked.
“I’m a ghost!”
“WTF? GHOST?” Raleigh asked.
“Ya.” Valerie said.
“Weirdo. You’re 8.” Kacey said.
“Shut up. I’ve got a job to do. My dad’s on my case.” Valerie began.
“Your dad?” Kacey asked, worried.
“Who’s her dad?” Raleigh asked.
“Some clown we kicked the crap out of last summer.”
“Oh.”
“Come on!” Valerie said, picking up the girls.
“THIS will be fun.” Kacey said, sighing.
