Sally's Story (Romance)

Chapter Seven

Sally wakes up seeing the puppeteer is still in her bed. She pokes his cheek waking him up.

"Morning puppeteer."

"Morning Sally. So where are you going today?"

"Georgia I have something I have to do."

"Ok well I have to get going before someone catches me here and so you can get ready. Goodbye for now Sally I will see you when you return." The puppeteer gets out of Sally's bed, then jumps out the window. Toby walks in Sally's room seeing she is awake.

"Morning Sally ready for breakfast?"

"Yea." She gets out of bed and follows Toby downstairs. She sits down at the table and eats some pancakes. When Sally is done she goes outside to sit on the porch. Ben comes out to join her.

"Hey." He smiles.

"Hey Ben." She smiles back.

"You ready to kill that douche bag uncle of yours?"

Sally laughs. "Yea I'm ready."

"Good." Ben sits there thinking of when they kissed. He starts blushing remembering the feel of her lips on his.

"Ben?" Sally snaps him out of his thoughts.

"Yea?"

"Your face is red." She giggles. Ben just smiles.

"What time do you leave?"

"I don't know maybe at three or close to night fall."

"Oh ok." It gets really quit between them. Sally just hangs around the house waiting when it finally gets close to night fall. Ben comes up to her room where she is.

"Sally I came to wish you luck and to tell you to have fun." He walks over to her. She smiles up at him but he can see the sadness she is trying to hide. "What's wrong?"

"I'm nervous. My uncle took my life. How do you expect me to feel when this is my first time seeing him after I died?"

Ben tries to play it off as he doesn't know what happened. "What do you mean?" She looks at him as if she is going to cry.

"Don't play dumb Ben I know Jill told everyone and that you know what happened to me. I heard her telling you guys."

"How'd you hear you was in the living room?"

"When I snuck out of the living room before I came in the kitchen I heard her telling you guys. So I know you know what happened to me. I know everyone knows what happened to me. I may be eight but I'm not that stupid." She keeps looking into his eyes.

"We don't think you're stupid Sally."

"But yet the other day when I asked what boobs were you treated me like I was stupid."

"You're just young plus you can't listen to me half the time, I never think before I speak."

"I have to go Ben." Sally turns to walk to the door when Ben grabs her arm turning her to him. He pulls her into a kiss leaving Sally in shock. "Don't hold back any of your anger towards your uncle." He let's go of her and walks out. When she recovers from shock she walks downstairs.

"Ok I'm ready to go."

"Good luck." A few of them say. "Kill that bastard Sally!" The others shout. Sally focuses on her uncles address and teleports herself there. She realizes she forgot her knife and teleports back.

"That was fast." Jeff says.

"I forgot my knife." Sally walks up to her room, gets her knife and comes back downstairs again. "Ok now I'm ready bye guys." She teleports back to Georgia. Sally sneaks into her uncles house and hides. She decides to haunt him for a bit making him think he has gone crazy.
