It was 5:30, and Lily was doing her homework when she got a phone call. It was Alice. "Well? Have you made up your mind about coming with us?" Lily rolled her eyes. "I told you I'm not going! Just remember, when you guys get in trouble, I'll be there to say I told you so." She could here Alice sigh, "Goodbye, Lily," and hang up the phone. Even though she was angry at Alice, Lily couldn't help but hope they would be okay. 'What if they get caught by a neighbor? Or someone calls the police? Oh, I'm so worried!' At that moment, Alice's words popped back into her head. ' I need to stop worrying so much!' she thought. 'They will be fine.' But they wouldn't be fine, and Lily knew it. In the back of her mind, something told her Alice and Nina were in trouble. Big trouble. But Lily just pushed the thought aside, ignoring it. As she finished her homework, there was the sound of a car door slamming shut, and the jingling of keys. 'Mom' thought Lily.
And sure enough, in came her mother. "Hi, sweetie! How was your day?" She hugged Lily and kissed her forehead. "Oh, good, I guess." Her mother looked at her with a confused look. "What's wrong?" Lily stared at her homework. "Well, I think Alice is mad at me because I wont go with her and Nina to this haunted house in Avery Kelly's neighborhood. I told her that it could be dangerous, but she wouldn't listen. She said they were going, with or without me." Lily's mother smiled. "Great job, honey. I'm glad you said no. They could get in trouble. In fact, I might just call Alice's mother and let her know." Lily knew Alice would call her a tattletale if she found out she told her mother. "No, that's ok, Mom. I think they decided not to go, anyway." Her mother agreed and went into her room to finish some paperwork. Lily didn't want Alice to go, but she also didn't want her to think she told on her. She was almost tempted to go and get them. And she would have, if she had known what had been planned for their fate.
