Behind The Dangerous Secrets

Chapter Six

"So where do you want to start?" I asked Blake as he walked back and forth in my bedroom. We were starting on this case of his mother missing. It wasn't going to be easy, according to Blake, the police didn't even know who the actual body was and before they could do some scans, the body mysteriously disappeared.

He sighed and ran his fingers through his hair in frustation. I know this must be hard for him, his mother missing and all, I felt pretty bad. Blake turned to me and his brown eyes locked with mine. "We need to find the body first" Blake replied, "I have a feeling that it'll lead us right to my mother."

I sighed, that was going to be difficult. We didn't even have actual suspects or anything on this case. The police were as shocked as we are. "Blake" I said slowly as he finally sits right next to me on my bed, "We need to look for suspects first. And then we can go to that step." Blake nodded at me and I continued, "Who do you think could have done this?"

He sighed, "I don't know Paige. I don't know..." He trailed off and looked down at the floor as if their was no hope and he believed that we couldn't do it--we couldn't crack this case at all. It was upsetting me, I didn't want Blake to be like this. His football game is in two days and I could imagine the pressure on his shoulders.

Maybe just maybe, I knew--I knew a suspect. My dream, Claudia's dream, and the principal suspicious stares--what that be anything? I sighed, it's all we got and we had to try. "I think I may have an idea" I said softly as I thought it over in my mind, "My nightmare about the principal and some stalker might be a connection along with Claudia's dream--

"Claudia's dream?" Blake interuppted as he turned to me, "What happened?" I glanced back at him and saw the worry, pain, and stress in his eyes. I huffed, this was really getting to me.

"Blake, if you can't solve this case because it's too hard for you, then I un--

"It's my mother" Blake interuppted me sharply, "She's gone, what the hell am I supposed to do?! I have no choice in this, you know. I'm not letting you do this case on your own, no after what happened to you a month ago."  I didn't know what to say, I have never seen him like this in awhile so I just decided to keep my mouth shut. "Anyway" He continued, "What about Claudia's dream?"

"It was about your mom getting murdered" I replied simply, "I've never seen her so scared, it's almost like...she knows something." Blake stared at me for a second and then turned away, but I didn't stop. "And the Principal's been giving me some creepy stares, he might know something too."

Blake looked back at me and then grabbed his notebook from my desk and wrote down everything I said. I closed my eyes and continued to talk. "I know for sure my dream meant something know because after that, I haven't been dreaming at all, plus the stalker could've been the culprit."

"Do you get stalked in real life?" Blake asked as he writes, "Do you ever feel like you're getting watched."

"No" I replied sadly. I'm sure my dream meant something but if I'm not getting stalked in real life, then what if it's just my imagination. No, it's not that, it can't be. I have a feeling that there's a message behind it, maybe I'm not sure what it is. "It's probably not the stalker then but the principal was there, I guess he could be him." Yeah, maybe it was him. It's weird, what did a stalker have to do with this?

"Okay" Blake said as he puts down his notebook and pencil, "Tommorrow, keep an eye on the Principal and follow his trails. I really don't want you to be in this on your own, but I have mandatory practice during lunch so you're the only hope."

"It's okay Blake" I smiled at him, "I'll be fine and I'll make sure to bring my spy kit. I'll do anything to find your mother, don't you worry." Blake leaned towards me and just when his lips reached mine, my door was flung open so we immediately jumped away from each other.
