Chapter 5:
Isabel's POV:
"I have a secret." I whispered to Elizabeth "About?" She asked "Casey." I answered. It was true, I have something I've been keeping from the police, from my parents... from everyone. "girls, would you like to go to the mall?" Mrs.B offered "we could also go back to my house." My mom said we were standing out side the Brooke's house at the glass table they had on their porch. "well, let's go to the mall and get something to eat, I'm starving." I said "ok, that sounds like fun!" Bailey said "alright let's go"."Wow this mall is so fancy!" Clara said "I know, it was built by a very rich man who still lives here." I answered truthfully. we were at the sushi place that I can't pronounce the name of. "I don't even know what this place is called." added Bailey "yeah, me either." I said "I have to use the washroom." Elizabeth said as I felt a nudge on my leg from under the table "yeah me too." I said before standing up and walking to the washroom.
"So, what's the secret?" She asked "well I've been keeping it from the cops but, on New Years, I found Casey phone. I never gave it to them. I thought I could find stuff out with it but I haven't been able to." I said "oh my god, Isabel, you could be in serious trouble if they find out you have that... haven't they traced it back to you?" She asked "no...i hired someone to do something to it so they can't track it...no matter what." I said "did you find anything on it?" She asked "well I found some things but nothing that says where she went I read through some of her messages also, I haven't went through her whole phone...im scared." I admitted "of?" She asked "I don't know it scares me to look through her phone especially if she's...dead." I said Elizabeth winced "I didn't know that that's what you thought." she said "you haven't thought about it?" I asked "well yeah I've thought about it but I never really...accepted it." she admitted "well if she was alive, don't you think she would have contacted us?" I asked "well not if she was kidnapped then she will probably be locked in a basement somewhere with no way to contact the outside world." she said "I guess.." I looked at the ground just thinking of what Casey may be doing right now scared the crap out of me. Maybe she was in an abandoned house tied up, stuck in an old rusty basement or in the ground or in a garbage or worst of all, perfectly fine. "we better go back out." I said trying to get the thoughts out of my mind. "yeah let's go"
As we left the bathroom and made our way back to out table I realized that Mrs.B was on the phone. i sat down in my seat. "What's mrs.B doing?" I asked "she is on the phone with the police station." my mom replied i swallowed hard, what if they phone to tell her that I had Casey's phone? Or that they know where she is! My head was spinning with thoughts when I realized that mrs.B hung up and was walking over to our table again "well, that was the police station, they are still searching the house. they want me to come down to the station at 3:00 so we better hurry and eat." mrs.B said know one answered they all just slowly ate.
After we left the restaurant my mom drove Mrs.B to the station and me Elizabeth, Bailey and Clara went shopping, we basically just walked around as none of us were in the mood for shopping. "want to just go back to my house?" I asked the girls "sure." they all said before we kept on walking out the doors. Clara and Bailey walked ahead of us and Elizabeth leaned over to whisper something in my ear "are you going to tell them about the phone?" she asked and I nodded.
"Well were here!" I said as I flung my front door open "wow your house is nice." Bailey said "thanks" I replied. "Do you want to go up to my room?" I asked all of them "sure!" Clara said as we walked up the stairs. I then bumped into my brother Brenden "oh hi." I said "hey, who's this?" He asked i groaned and turned around "this is Elizabeth, Clara and Bailey, guys this is my brother Brendan." I said "nice to meet you guys." my brother winked then walked down the rest of the stairs the girls just waved and smiled. I led them into my room. we all sat on my teal and white bed and started talking "so was Casey...um...rude I guess to you guys?" Bailey asked. we all looked at each other i spoke up "I think she just didn't know it really hurt us.." I said "yeah I think she was just preparing is for what is ahead of us.." Said Clara we all nodded. Just then I heard my computer make the noise it makes when someone messages me, I ignored it. "Do you guys want to...look through her phone?" I asked they hesitated but all nodded. I walked over to my closet opened it reached in the very back to a pair of cow girl boots I wore once when I went to a rodeo I reached in and a grab a cold metal item...which was Casey's phone. I walked over to them and sat on the bed "it's dead but I have a charger, we got matching phones for Christmas the year before she disappeared. I reached down and grabbed the cord and plugged it in and set it on the table. "Have you ever went on her phone since she disappeared?" Elizabeth asked "no." I said "I was always to scared." I finished the phone lit up meaning it was charged I turned and looked at it, I then slowly reached for it. I grabbed it and turned it on, on the front screen was '147 unread messages' in big letters "oh my gosh." Clare whispered then I pressed read. 'ENTER PASSWORD:' popped up. oh no she told me what it was but that was so long ago I totally forget! "Guys I don't know the password!" I said "ah crap, there's a password?" Bailey said I nodded. "well.. I know what to do." Elizabeth said "what?" We all turned to her anxious "we hack her phone."
