"Nobody ordered." Hayden said. I rushed out of my room when I heard him. Amelia and I were playing dress up. Quick right? Everyone loves me quickly.
"But sir, someone spoke to us through the intercom." A gentle voice replied.
"You're saying someone ordered Waffles, bacon and cheese from this room. Are you..."
"That's my order!" I said cutting him short. I ran to them. "I ordered it." I said.
The lady rolled it in and I smiled at her and gave her a tip before she left.
"You ordered all this? For who?" He asked.
"It's breakfast for Amelia and I." I replied, taking the plates to my room.
"What of me?" He asked.
"Go get your own breakfast!" I shouted back and closed the door.
Amelia looked up from the big book she was reading and put it away quickly.
"What's that?" I asked.
"My picture book." She replied simply.
"Uh... Okay. Breakfast is here." I said and dropped the plates on the table. She sat in the couch immediately and pulled me next to her then we started eating. It turned out to be an amazing combination. I didn't really like waffles.
I cleared up the plates and took them to the parlor. When they come to clean up, they'll take it with. Then I sat next to Amelia and we both looked at the pictures together. She told me when everyone of them were taken and most of them were of her mother and her.
"And this? Who's this?" I asked pointing at a man in a picture.
"Oh! He's one of my mum's friends." She said smiling. "You know, he was my mum's best friend and she had even gone to meet him that morning before the... The incident." She said.
"Really? Perhaps he can help with the case." I said.
"Well, he's always been there for us when we needed him. And few days before the incident, mum has been behaving strangely... Worried I think and I'm sure she must have confided in him." She said.
I guess Amelia was really trying to help.
"Do you know his name?" I asked.
"Mum called him Bob and he would always laugh and say that's not his name but he never once mentioned his actual name."
"Uhm... You know where he lives?"
"Nope."
"Okay. It's alright. Everything will be okay." I said and kissed her head. "You don't mind me taking the picture."
"You can have it." She said and removed it from the book. I took it and excused myself.
That idiot! I knew this was his plan. I wanted me to beg him when I needed to call someone. Now I need to call Ashton. He was the only one who could help me find this Bob guy.
I knocked on his rooms door and after a minute, it flew open.
"What do you want?" He asked coldly.
"Listen here Grumpy, I need to call someone but you already broke my phone." I said.
"Who?"
"Are you giving me or not?"
"I would if I know who."
"That's none of your business." I retorted.
"Fine." He said and closed the door. I immediately held it open and barged into his room.
"Okay scumbag! I was trying to be nice but not anymore. The phone. Now!" I commanded.
"Oh! I'm scared." He said sardonically. "Leave when you're done." He said and sat on his bed, pressing the phone.
I moved closer. "Give it!" I said.
"No." He replied.
"That's it." I said and climbed the bed and started dragging the phone from him. Due to the fact that he was more powerful, I didn't like to admit that, he pulled it away from me and me, being me, I followed the phone and ended up on top of him.
We stared at each other, looking into each other's eyes silently. Then all of a sudden, he rolled me over and I ended up on the floor.
"Ouch!" I screamed holding my butt. This was the second time he was doing that! "You beep. Beep. Beep." I cursed.
"So this is what you're hiding." He said stretching out the picture.
"How did you..." I trailed off.
"When you were busy looking into my eyes dreamingly." He said in a duh tone and looked at the picture. "Who's the third person in the picture?" He asked.
"Figure it out yourself." I said and stood up. "Ow!" I winced. "I hate you." I said.
He smirked. "I hate you more." he replied. "Amelia!" He called.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Figure it out." He said and walked out of the room.
Due to my butt pain, I walked slowly to the parlor and only got there when Amelia had told him who he was.
"Thanks Amy." He said with a smile.
Oh! So he smiles.
"Amy?" The girl asked.
"I'll call you Amy." He said.
"Alright...uhm... What's your name?" Amelia asked.
"Hayden." He replied.
"Alright Hayden." She said and he laughed. He kissed her cheek and left after winking at me, earning a glare from me. If only looks could kill he'd certainly be dead meat by now.
"What should we do now? I'm bored." Amelia said.
I turned to her and slowly went to her.
"What happened to you?" She asked and ran to me.
"That grumpy fellow made me fall when I went to ask for his help." I said and spouted.
"Grumpy fellow?"
"Hayden." I replied and winced again.
"Oh! Sorry." She said and helped me seat.
"You said you're bored right?" I asked.
"Yeah but since you're ill..."
"I'm okay. I'll just use my mum's magic cream and the pain will be gone." I said.
"Magic cream? Let me see!" She said and clapped her hands happily.
"Its in my room. I'll use it then we'll discuss what to do to have a little fun." I said.
"How about a payback?" She asked and I looked really confused. "You know? A little payback for what Hayden did. It'll be fun." She said.
I thought of it. "I like it." I said. It would certainly be fun to watch him suffer. We went to my room and after I applied the pain reliever, we sat to think of a prefect payback.
I hope I tried with this chapter. I've been thinking of how to make it more interesting and also a way to get us to see that they are really working on the case. I think I tried though. Vote and also comment what you think.
