Catch Me If You Can

Chapter One

Chapter One

"Finally we're here." Sighed Gage

"Uh ghh, that road was so bumpy." Whined Graham as they pulled up to the lot that they arranged to meet the girls and the bus at.

The boys climbed out of Graham's new 2013 Ford Explorer; when they left his car was a shinny black now it was a moving sand box. The boys heard tires against gravel and turned around to see a brand new LRX Range Rover pulling into the lot. Phoebe and Skylar hopped out of the car, smiled and in a sing song voice said, "Hey boys how ya doin'?"

"My bladder is about to explode all over you guys, but other than that I'm pretty good" Gage said with his ever so charming smile.

"There are plenty of trees surrounding us wanting to be watered, so go pick one to your liking and use it" Skylar informed him. While Gage wandered off into the woods to use a tree the other waited and passed the time chatting.

"Hey mute!" Skylar hollered over to Graham who was leaning against his car playing on his phone.

"What do you want from me?" Graham grumbled.

"Cheer up, and stop acting like a baby" Phoebe ordered him.

"Well I was gonna ask how you were doin', but I guess I know now, grumpy" Sky said.

"I am not grumpy!"

"You sound like my two year old nephew before nap time" Sky informed him. Graham went back to leaning against his car and playing on his phone while the girls chatted away waiting for Gage and the bus.

Gage came walking out of the woods like he won a million dollars. With an award winning smile he walked up to the group and cried out in joy, "Awe god I feel like a million bucks, man!"

"Glad to hear it Gage." Phoebe said with a bored tone.

"What's got your panties in a twist, Pheebs?" He asked with a joking but questioning voice.

"Graham, he defiantly knows how to bring the mood down." Sky butt in. Just as Gage was going to respond the bus pulled into the lot. They loaded their luggage into the bus and took their seats. Quiet conversation were floating around the bus, getting lost in the one conversation that you could clearly hear, Graham didn't even have to strain to hear what they were saying. It was filled with violent threats coming from the women's side if the conversation; this made every hair on Graham's neck stand straight up.

"We came here for a vacation! To get our lives, our marriage straightened out and all you care about is of there re going to be hot girls here! What are you 16!?" The women from a few seats back screamed.

"Baby, we are here to straighten out our marriage, it's not against the law for me to wonder if there are gonna be hot babes here." The man calmly stated.

"THIS ISN'T A FREAKING BEACH, THERE AREN'T GOING TO BE ANY 'HOT BABES' HERE IN DINKY SWIM SUITS!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs, "you are an understatement of a cheater, why the heck did I ever, ever want to marry you? I should've dumped you when the first red flag popped up!" She huffed frustrated.

He stared at her for a few seconds then said, "calm down would ya?"

Her face was beat red and she looked like she was about it explode before she screamed, "Calm down? Calm down? Haha! I am not going to calm down, I'd rather blow your head off with your freaking hunting rifle!!! I rather you dead and 6 feet under than have you sitting next to me at the moment!" The lady then got up and moved to an empty seat. Graham being a special agent in the FBI was alarmed by the lady's nasty statement, so for comfort he ran his hand over his 9mm gun that was resting on the side of his hip in its holster.

Once they had arrived at their cabins Graham kept his eyes on the crazy lady as well as helping his friends unload their luggage. After everyone unpacked and was all settled the group met up in the girls cabin. Graham and Gage scrambled into the girls cabin, the girls offered the boys to sit and Gage scooped up that offer and plopped down on Skylars bed, cris-crossing his feet at the ankles and rested his hands behind his head. Graham on the other hand didn't relax as well as Gage, he was fidgety and on the edge of his chair.

" Uh god Graham, would you sit still and relax dude." Gage instructed.

" Yeah why are you all fidgety, it's like someone shoved ants down your pants, Graham." Skylar questioned Graham with a nervous glint in her eyes.

" Guys it's not funny, I swear something bad is going to happen, I feel it in my gut. Didn't you hear that women on the bus? She's insane, she threatened him!" Graham screamed.

Gage looked at him like he had sixteen heads till he finally answered, " Hey dude chill, every couple makes threats, it's natural you need to get yourself a girl and you'll see."

" Dude I know a murderer when I see one, it's in my blood."

" Graham nobody's been murdered-" Skylar started to pipe in till Graham cut her off.

" -yet, nobody's been murdered yet, but I know, I can feel it." Graham finished.

" Okay Graham we understand, but nothing's happened yet so till it happens just enjoy your time, and don't say you can stop it because you have nothing to arrest the women on."

Graham finally gave up on worrying and slumped back on Phoebes' bed. Phoebe (who had been sitting in the corner of the room thinking of the same thing Graham had been worrying about) got up and walked across the room and threw on her light green lightweight sweater and her light green Nikes and walked out the door without saying a word. The group looked at her strangely but said nothing.

Phoebe walked along a path the followed a cliff. A daze had come over her while she had been walking, most of her senses were fogged except for her sight. Someone grabbed her by the elbow,but to the persons surprise she reacted faster, she grabbed the assailant by the fore arm and tossed him on the ground face up. The look of shock on his face was priceless, he scrambled to his feet still shocked that a women just put him on the ground.

" Uh-hh so-rry did I scare you?" He stammered while blushing.

" What the heck do you think your doing?!" She asked angrily.

" So-rry, I just wanted to know if you like to have dinner with me tonight?" He said with a flirty smile.

" Whats in it for me?"

" A date with me?" He questioned his own answer. While he was waiting on her answer she studied him, his sharp features, how his eyes were a soft brown, when he smiled his dimples showed, his slightly tousled brown hair, how freckles were blown across the bridge of his nose, he was so darn cute that she wouldn't say no.

" What's your name?" She asked.

" Mike."

" Your not even gonna ask me mine?"

" Oh ha I heard your friends call you Phoebe earlier." He said with a slight nervous shake in his voice.

" Okay then Mike, I'll have dinner with you tonight."

" Huh, okay! Uh I'll meet you at the main cabin at 4:00pm and we can go for a quick walk to work up an appetite then back to the main cabin for dinner at 5:00pm." He said with that cute dimple smile. Phoebe then bid Mike good bye and turned to walk back to her cabin.
