Chapter 4- Sapphire

This chapter is dedicated to @secret1166 for being my first follower and reader.

What the actual heck! Did he hear me call him a jerk, IN MY HEAD! How did he apologize, WITHOUT TALKING! Ok, I just need to take a second to breath and calm down. He said he would explain when he came to pick me up to work on our project. So for now, I'll just go home, do my work, and wait. It's already three forty-five.  My dad was supposed to pick me up a half an hour ago. I called him, but it went strait to voice mail. I decided to text him.

 dad, where r u. u where supposed to pick me up at 3:15

I got an answer about 5 minuets later.

Sorry Saph, I got stuck in a surprise meeting, can u find a ride?

yeah dad, I'll find a ride. if  ur in a meeting u should go, bye, love u <3

Thank you Saph, I'm sorry. Love u too. 

So, now I have to find a ride. Ugh! Who in there right minds would still be at school. 

"Hey Sapphire!" I heard a familiar voice call. Ike. Well, at least I got my answer. 

"Hey," I responded. I sounded way to upset for my liking, and of coarse, Ike picked up on it. 

"What's wrong?" He asked, for once, he wasn't smiling. He than looked around and seemed to notice my problem. "Need a ride." I nodded, not trusting my voice. I was really upset about my dad not coming. This was the third time this mouth that it had happened, the only difference is that this time I actually might have a ride. 

"Well, I don't have one here, but you can walk home with me and we can work on our project now."He said, his smile returning. Which oddly reassured me.

" Sounds good." I responded. His smile grew even more, making me smile too. Than I saw something that replaced that happiness with confusion. A cat, walking on its hind legs, made its way over to Ike. Even more to my surprise, It wasn't a cat, it was a chicken in a cat suite. I looked at Ike quizzically.

"Oh," He said looking at the chicken, than back at me," This is Cataleta, she's my pet chicken."

"A chicken in a cat suit?" I said questioningly.

"Yup!" I heard a voice respond. This wasn't Ike. It was a high pitched, girly voice, it sounded like a valley girl mixed with a three year old. 

"Who said that?"I asked, Ike and I where the only people in the parking lot, and it definitely wasn't Ike. I looked over at him, but instead of looking confused like me, He looked like he was about to die laughing.

"Um, Its me, Cataleta, duh." I heard the same voice respond. I looked over at Ike for answers, but he completely lost it. He fell to the ground lapping. Ok, this was not real, Ike must be playing some trick on me.

"Not a trick"  I heard him think to me.  He was still laughing, but it was less of a laugh and more of a  pterodactyl screech. 

"Ike, we don't have all day." said Cataleta, apparently she could talk. I personally still thought it was a trick. 

"Also," she started, turning to me, "I'm not a trick. " she turned back to Ike. "Lets get going. Is Ms. Unbeliever coming too. " Ike still couldn't breath, let alone talk, so I answered for him.

"Yeah, I guess I am." I said. 

"Ok, lets go!" Cataleta screeched. And with that, I was walking home with a kid I just met and a chicken in a cat suite.

 "Ike," I said, monumentally stopping him, "You have a lot of explaining to do."
