                                ~Coppers POV~
     Me and Madie haven't talked in a while. Ever since Krysten got married she has been around her. I think soon she wants me to ask her. I was laying in the loft of the barn. From where I am you can't see the door of the barn. I hear it slide open. Footsteps then walk over to the ladder. I slowly duck behind some hay. All I can see is some brown hair. I slowly get up and see Madie laying a blanket down. She turns and lays looking at he roof. I slowly get up and lay beside her. She jumps and smacks me. "Ow. What was that for?"I say. "You scared me to death"she yelled. "Sorry". She leans in and kissed me. We stare in each others eyes. When Zack climbs up the ladder he looked sad. "Oh sorry I thought I was alone". "Are you OK"Madie said in a comforting voice. "Its Nat she's been hanging with Jake a lot more than with me". "She might just want to get closer to Lily or Kastan". He nodes and doesn't make eye contact. "How about I do a little spying. I'll be 'Benedict Cumberbatch' ask around get some back ground. Finally my true calling will be tested"she said getting up. "Don't worry she would never hurt you". With that she left.

                              ~Madie's POV~

     I walk in my room and realize I don't have anything black. 'Hm maybe Krysten has something'. Krysten and River never really had a honey moon other than a picnic out in the pasture. I walked up to door and knocked. Krysten opened the door rubbing her eyes. "Wah"she said. "Can I barrow some cloths". "Mhm"she said opening the door wider. On the bed is River still out. "What cloths do you need". "Um can I barrow some black jeans, black shirt, your timberlands, and black beanie."I said quietly "Oh and a leather jacket" I finish. She hands me the cloths and I walk out. I throw the cloths on and wall out towards the stair. "Nat I love you"I hear someone whisper. I move closer to Nat's door. "I love you too but I'm dating Zack". "Maybe not for too much longer". "What is that suppose to mean". "It means soon we will be together". "Stay away from me and Zack. You understand? 'Scoff' Freak"and with that someone turns the door knob. I walk back towards my room getting a glance at Nat and a figure in the back of the room. All I see are dark brown eyes and brown hair starring me down. I keep walking and look down. After a while of sitting in my room Zack walks in. "Got anything". I nod. "Well tell me". I take a big breath before saying. "Nat is ignoring you for a reason. Someone is threatening to hurt you. Or sound like they were". Zack turns and runs out the door. Being a homeschooled kid gave me time to run a lot so I was pretty fast. He didn't make it to the hall before I pulled him back into my room. "You can't go around telling people. I don't even know who the person was"tears began to come into his eyes. He walks out leaving me to my thoughts. 'Nat would never hurt a fly. She would never hurt anyone. Wait she didn't open the door she was at the back of the room with the figure. So the person has an accomplice. That will be even harder'...
