Isobel

I think Jacob knew what Miami and I was doing on yesterday because he kept giving me these weird looks. "Miami, do you think Jacob knows what we did yesterday?" I whispered. "If he do, just deny everything and act like you're completely confused and don't know what he's talking about." Miami whispered back. "What are you two whispering about?" I heard Jacob say loudly, making us jump. "About what?" I ask. "You was whispering." Jacob said. "Who was whispering?" I asked. "You and Miami." Jacob said. "Miami and I what?" I asked. "Oh my goodness Isobel." he said. Miami and I started laughing, high fiving. Jacob shook his head before walking upstairs. "We should let him go home on Thursday," I say, wanting him to see Chresanto and Tasha's popularity downfall. "What we doing on Friday?" Miami asked. "Having a party that reveals all of Chresanto and Tasha's secrets. I want everyone there to know that they are lame." I told her. "Oooo, mean. I like the sound of it." Miami said. "Where we having it at?" She asked. "At a place where there's a microphone and a big TV. I want everyone to be able to hear what I say and see what happens." I said. " I need someone to find out all their secrets. From the smallest ones to the biggest ones." I say and I start to grin. I knew exactly who to ask.

I put on my purple Juicy Couture jogging suit, curled my hair, and put on some lip gloss. I waited a little bit before Miami came downstairs. "Ready?' she asked, wearing a similar outfit to mines. She had on gray Juicy Couture jogging suit, flat ironed her hair, and had on light lip gloss. We went to my car quickly, not wanting Jacob to ask any questions. I drove to the next town over, which took two hours. We talked, planned, and gossiped the whole time. Miami played Honey Cocaine the whole drive. I pulled up to the location on the card she gave me three years ago. "They better be the real deal." Miami said. We walked to the door and I stopped. "Are you nervous?" I asked her. "A little." She admitted. I rang the doorbell and the bodyguard immediately opened the door. "Card?" the bodyguard asked and I showed him the card I was given. He nodded before letting us in. He led us to the basement, and I saw Bruce and Tracey downstairs. "Ah, Isobel and Miami." Tracey said. "Who do you want information on?" Bruce asked. "Chresanto August and Tasha Thornwood." I said. "Aha, I know much about Tasha already. I will print her information out for you." Tracey said, walking upstairs to the library. "I think I just did a case on Chresanto August. " Bruce said. He fumbled around in his drawer before pulling out a picture of Chresanto. "Is this him?" Bruce asked. "Yeah," I nodded. "Yeah I got a lot about Chresanto August." Bruce smirked. He pressed a button. "Yes?" I heard Tracey's voice say. "I got the files on Chresanto August, he should be in the recent. Just print those out too." Bruce said. "Alright," Tracey said and he let go of the button. "She should be finished in about ten minutes." Bruce said. We talked until Tracey came back with the papers. "Chresanto's papers are labeled CA, and Tasha's papers are labeled TT." Tracey said, giving us two folders with the papers in it. "Thank you," I say, giving them two hundred dollars before leaving. "That went well," I say, getting in the car. "Yeah. I can't wait until Friday now." Miami said. " I'm gonna read through them and check which ones I'm gonna tell everyone." I said. "Alright," she nodded.

"Where ya'll been? Ya'll been gone for like forever." Ray asked when we walked back in. "Been where?" I asked. "Ya'll went out somewhere." Ray said. "Where we go?" I asked. "Out." he said. "Out where?" I said. He shook his head and we giggled. "Love ya baby." Miami said. "Love you too," Ray said. "Awe," I laughed as I ran upstairs. "Hey baby girl," Jacob says, grabbing my waist. "Hi baby," I panted. "Where you been?" Jacob asked. "I was out with Miami." I said. "Oh... What's in the folder?" Jacob asked. "You ask too many questions Jacob." I laughed. He laughed along with me before going downstairs. I went in my room and hid the folder.

Jacob

This is the second time Isobel and Miami been out for hours and they refuse to tell Ray or I anything. I'm starting to get suspicious. Maybe they went shopping for us and don't wanna tell us yet. It could be a surprise and they are hiding it in their cars. I'm scared that Isobel is seeing another dude while she's with me. I can't let her leave me, she's my everything. I cant live without her by my side. I don't know how I remained composure for three years without her as my girlfriend. I looked out the window to see if Isobel's car was still there. Her car wasn't in the driveway, so I went up to Isobel's room and looked around. It's crazy how we always sleep with each other in our rooms but we don't share a room. I looked around, trying to keep things in place. I couldn't go through with looking through her stuff, so I walked out. "Jacob... What were you doing in my room?" Isobel said and I jumped. "I was looking for you and I realized that you wasn't in there so I was walking out." I lied. "Oh, I went out to the mall with Miami to buy some stuff." She said and I looked down to see her holding bags. I felt terrible for lying to her and it was probably written all over my face. "I'll see you later, alright?" I said, breaking the silence. "Okay," Isobel said. I walked downstairs, feeling guilty already. I just can't lie to Isobel... I don't know why but if I do I feel really guilty. I decided to make it up to her by buying her a gift. "Aye where you going?" Ray asked. "I'm going to buy Isobel something." I tell him. "Alright I'll come with you." Ray said. "ISOBEL! RAY AND I ARE GOING TO THE MALL!" I yelled. "LET'S GO TO THE MALL EVERYBODY!" I heard Rebecca scream and everyone tumbled out of their rooms. "Dang." I said and Ray laughed.
