Okay. First off I’m gonna begin my three part apology by saying that you guys are the best readers any writer could ever need, second of all, I am a horrible person for not updating quick enough and for giving you guys such a lollipop-sucking chappie. And lastly, I am so very sorry!!! I’ll give you guys a longer one next week, I swear on the River Styx.
Here’s Chappie 7.

The next day, I looked for Nick.
Okay. That was an understatement. I hunted Nick. But I couldn’t find him anywhere. At all. And it frustrated me to no end. It was harder than answering the boys’ “Where’s Waldo?” book.
“Who’re you looking for?” Cade asked me, popping out of nowhere, giving me another mini-heart attack. Geez, sometimes I think these guys are planning to go to Monster University. You know, scare team and all that.
“Huh? Um, no one?” I told her, weaving through the rush of other kids who were making their way to their classes.
“Was that a question? Oh Rae. What are you hiding?” Cade asked suspiciously. My eyes met the floor and I began to quicken my pace, dodging my schoolmates like a ninja.. Suddenly, I gave the floor a hug again. I’m giving the floor the wrong idea here. I should really stop. So much for my sneaky ninja skills.
Cade tackled me in the middle of the hallway.
She. Tackled. Me. In. The. Middle. Of. A. Busy. Hallway. This was not written on my bucketlist!
“Cade! What the fudge!” I yelled, my face burning in embarrassment. Just after I thought this couldn’t get any worse, it did. Silly me. I jinxed it. Will I ever learn?
“DOG PILE!!” A voice behind us screamed, and suddenly it wasn’t just Cade and I anymore. Darcie and Karissa joined the floor hug, knocking out the air from my lungs.
“Ouch! Guys! Get off!” I demanded, struggling to get free.
“You sounded British Rae!” Darcie exclaimed, clapping her hands like a retarded seal.
“Say it again! Say it again!” Karissa said excitedly, sounding too much like my little brothers when I did a minions impersonation.
“It again.” I replied smugly, earning annoyed huffs from the three lunatics above me.
“What are you girls doing?” An amused voice asked from behind us. With a burst of strength I managed to shrug the three girls off of me, making them successfully land on the cold, hard ground. Oh! Oh! Ooh! Trouble, trouble, trouble.
No Rae, no. I looked up to see Miss Jenkins looking as retro as ever in polka dots. She was wearing the hall monitor sash which meant...
wait for it...
Trouble, trouble, trouble!
“Uh oh.” Darcie said, voicing my thoughts. Atleast somewhat.
“Uh oh is right. I’m sorry girls but I’m gonna have to give you detention.” She said, shaking her head in sympathy. It was then I realized that we were the only one’s out in the hallway. How we managed to zone everyone out was beyond me. I glared at the girls who sent me sheepish looks in return.
I’ve never had a detention before. Ever. Never ever. I got up, seething, and straightened my clothes. I grabbed my detention slip from Ms. Jenkins before storming off. Not once looking back. This day just got even more suckish. I didn’t even find Nick.

“Pssst! Rae!” another paper ball to my head.
