I'm coming for you.

Sierra had to rewind the TV just to make sure she had heard right. He's coming for me she thought. She had no idea what to do, her only logical idea was to call Bailey. Sierra grabbed her phone and ran up to her room. She sat down on her bed and typed in Bailey's number. Sierra stared at the number, what if Bailey didn't want to talk to her, what if Bailey was still mad at her. Sierra didn't have to wait long for an answer, because her phone began to ring. Sierra slid the call over, "Hello,". "Hey, we need to talk," Bailey said. "We sure do, look I'm sorry I got mad. I know you were just looking out for me," Sierra said. "I'm sorry I got mad, I understand why you don't want to tell anyone," Bailey said. The girls talked for a little while longer and then said goodbye. Sierra flopped down on her bed and took a deep breath. She was sure glad that her and Bailey were good now. But Sierra had forgotten to talk to Bailey about the message the killer left. She needed a chance to talk to Bailey in person, so no one could tap into their conversation. Sierra jumped up from her bed and went to find her mom. "Hey mom," she said as she found her mom in the living room with Sophie. "Hey sweetie," she said looking up from the floor. "Can Bailey come over for a sleep over tomorrow night?" Sierra asked. "Sure, but you'll have to watch Sophie for me," her mom said. "Yeah sure, when?" Sierra asked. "Saturday night, your dad and I have a meeting for work and Alex has a sleepover at his buddy's house," her mom said. "Okay, so it's a yes?" Sierra asked just to be sure. "It's a yes," her mom said laughing. Sophie heard the laughing and soon joined in herself. "What's so funny princess?" her mom asked tickling her stomach. Sierra ran back up to her room and texted Bailey.

Sierra: Hey I need to talk to you in person. Something has come up. Can you sleep over tomorrow night?

Sierra waited and waited for a reply but didn't get one. She went to bed still waiting for a reply.

Sierra sat up and stretched. She looked over to her alarm clock and saw that it was 9;30 in the morning. She grabbed her phone off her night stand and checked to see if she had gotten a reply, she hadn't. Sierra got up and made her bed. She grabbed some running shorts and a T-shirt and went into the bathroom. She bushed her teeth and pulled her into a tight pony tail. She grabbed her phone and headphones and went to her moms room. "Mom," Sierra whispered into the room. "What," said a very sleepy voice. "I'm going for a jog," she said. "Okay, be safe," she said then fell back into a deep sleep. Sierra went downstairs and grabbed a bagel. She quickly finished the bagel and went outside the front door. She put her headphones in and turned on her music. She had been jogging for an hour when she stopped into a little drug store on the outside of her neighborhood. She had forgotten to grab a water bottle, she was sure glad she put money in her shorts. Sierra paid for her water and then went back outside. She decided to check and see if Bailey had texted her back but had no luck. Sierra had no idea what was going on.
