I woke up in the pile of pictures, one still in my hand. It was of a beautiful view of mountains and a crystal lake, it felt like I was living in the pictures.

I shook my head and looked at my clock 11 am. I turned my head back up towards the ceiling. I let my thoughts capture me once again.

I laid there for what had seemed like forever but was only a few minutes when I had a glimpse of something. I shot up. "My diary!" I whisper shouted.

I got out of my bed throwing my blankets to the floor. I went straight to my bookshelf and paced quickly through every single book. "Ugh, where is that thing?"

Then I turned around and practically dove straight into my night stand ripping the drawers open. "YES! I FOUND IT!" I shouted. "You ok up there honey?!" My mom shouted from downstairs. "Yeah mom!" I shouted back.

I plopped down on my bed and quickly opened up the front cover. I flipped through Page after page until getting to the date of May 30th, the day after my birthday.

It was very short all it said was a few things about mom's business trip and me having to live with the neighbors for a month. So at least that part checked out but what about Carter?

Then I remember that sometimes I use invisible ink pens for shit that I don't want my mom to see if she just looks into it. I quickly sift through my nightstand drawers and retrieve my UV pen. I click on the light and Survey the page. " dear dumbass, today I broke up with Chuck, fucking finally, I also poured chocolate milk on that bitch Brit. Then I sat next to this kid with blue hair he seemed pretty cool but distant."

There was some other unimportant stuff. But so far, everything Iris and Carter had said checked out but everything Chuck and Britt said did not. What if they were dating? What if I was just getting played by them so they could get back at me?

Then I remembered that yesterday chuck had asked when I was getting off of bed rest and I told him today. Maybe I could interrogate him or something? Or maybe I could just play him like he and Britt are me.

I closed my diary and set it on my nightstand. Then I laid back onto my bed and literally maybe after an hour of being up, I took a nap.

I woke up to the sound of my stupid ringtone. I groggily lifted my head and grab my phone to check who it was, Chuck. I groaned and reluctantly answered trying to sound as cheerful as possible.

"Hey baby!" I say in a forced voice
"Hey," his voice gravely, " I was thinking about picking you up and taking you out tonight would that be okay?" He asked, then there was the faintest sound that if I weren't in my quiet secluded room, there was no way I would have heard it, it was a giggle.

"Umm, yeah sure."

"Ok, I'll pick you up in 3 hours." He says
"Ok, bye."I say "Bye."he says hanging up. Dial tone.

I went downstairs to tell my mom about my plans to go out tonight with Chuck. I didn't tell her anything about my suspicions or my plan to trap him and Britt if she's in on it.

When I went back to my room I decided that I should have someone to help me get ready for the Trap date.

" hey, I need your help with something and it's really important can you just get over here to my house as fast as possible?"

"I'll be right over."

Literally seconds later someone rang the doorbell and I flew down the stairs to answer it. I swung the door open almost hitting the wall, pulled the person inside and slammed it shut. "Trace slow down." They said. "Can't, come on." I hurried them up the stairs.

"Trace who was it?" My mom asked. "Just me Mrs. B!" They shouted. "Oh hi-" I cut her off. "No time to chat mom, emergency prep time!" I shouted as I literally dragged them up the stairs into my room and shut the door.

"Tracie slow down!"

"I cant! I'll fill you in quickly, but then we need to get to work." I rushed to fill them in.

"So, can you help me?"

"Fuck. Yes."

AN: I'll probably publish this when I I am on vacation or something this summer. But yeah, I actually don't know who Tracy invited yet so I mean I'm on the same page as you guys.
