Maya's POV:

Lucas has been acting weird.

He doesn't talk to me that much.. And when I ask whats wrong, he just.. Ignores me, or says 'nothing'. Like always.

I descide to go on a walk.

Riley's POV:

We arrive in Indiana, and its pretty cool here. I like New York better though.

"Okay, Farkle. Where does it say they are now?" I ask.

"It says..." He studies his phone, then the screen goes black.

"What happened Farkle?!"

"My phone... It died!" Farkle says.

"Dad! We need a charger for Farkles phone. Stat!"

My dad nodds, and heads to a store.

-----

We get to the store, and go to the electronics. We grab the cheapest charger and buy it.

"Okay, well.. Were gonna need a place to stay for the night. Lets get a hotel." My dad says.

"Okay, let's go." I say, and we head out.

-----

We get to a hotel, and check in. We get to the room, and there are only two beds.

"Riley, your sharing with me." My dad immediately says.

"Yea, I got this huge, comfy, bed all to myself.." Farkle teases.

"....fine! But you dont touch her. Anywhere!"

I laugh.

Lucas's POV:

Maya left to go on a walk, so I figured i'd have some alone time.

Its really quiet and I try to think some things through.

Suddenly, I hear familiar voices outside the door.

I slowly, and quietly peek out the door and see Mr. Matthews, Riley, and Farkle.

Oh no. They're trying to follow us.

I have to find Maya.
