Chapter 10 Stake-out

London's POV

Quinta calls me in a hurry. She says she has something to show me.

"Quinta, what do you want to show me. Every Time I talk, I feel like crying."

"Trust me, London. You want to see this."

"Quinta, tell me what it is."

"No you need to see this in person."

"Can this wait till later? Quinta, I'm in the middle of work."

"No, now get your jacket on and meet me on 240 Longhorn Avenue."

"Ok I'll be there in. Wait, please do not tell me that you are not spying on Chris and Patricia."

"Why would you think that, London?"

"Well, you said 240 Longhorn Avenue. Chris and Patricia live on 246 Longhorn Avenue. And your whispering, so that means that you don't want them to hear you."

"Actually I'm whispering because I feel like it. But you were spot on about the Chris thing."

"I'm not coming, Quinta."

"London, don't be a fruit loop. Now come over here."

"Your not going to let this go, are you?"

"No. Now come here, now."

"Fine. I'll be there in 5 minutes. I'll just check in with Mr. West. I'll text you when I leave."

"Ok, hurry up."

I hang up and go to Mr. West.

Mr. West is our boss. Very nice guy.

I go over to his office.

"Hey Mr. West. Can I head out for an hour?"

He looks up from his paper.

"No! Stay here and keep your mouth shout!"

I look down. "Well sorry to disturb you."

"I'm just kidding. Be back in an hour. Ok?"

"Ok." I smile and leave.

I grab my jacket and text Quinta that I'm coming.

Heading out now. ~L

Hurry up! ~Q

Fine! You are so exasperating!" ~L

*gasp* I'm shocked! I know you don't mean that. ~Q

Don't flatter yourself. Be there in 5 minutes. ~L

I grab my jacket and head out.
~*~
About 5 minutes later, I get there.

Quinta's car is parked on the side of the road. I go over and get in the car.

"What. I have to be back in 1 hour. So hurry up!"

She puts her seatbelt on, so I do, too. She drives up to the driveway of the house next to Chris.

"This isn't Chris's house, you know." I say.

She puts her head back.

"London, I'm not that dumb. We can't just park in his driveway. That'll be weird. We are sneaking up on him."

I follow her as she leaves the car and sneaks to the side of his house.

She goes up and looks into the window. She smiles and brings me up.

I look inside and gasp at what I see.

Scout.
