Alexa wakes up to her brother yelling in her ear to get up. She groans and rolls over, "Let me sleep in Jack,"
"What? No. We actually have a real case and you want to be like the normal teenagers that are just having a normal boring holiday. I want to see you ready in 20 minutes stat." Jack said.
Alexa sighed, "Fine but I need to get dressed first," she said groggily.
"Okay, meet me downstairs and don't forget to call Isabel," then he turns to leave.
"You know you sound like Dad," said Alexa just as Jack closed the door.
"And you sound like Mum," retorted Jack.

The phone rings.
"Hi Alexa," I groan at the same time as the light from the sun blazes through the curtains
"Sorry did I wake you?" asks Alexa apologetically.
"Yeah but it's fine the sun would have woken me soon anyway there's soo much light in the room," I said.
"Well anyway can you meet me outside the front of my house like at 10:00?" said Alexa.
"Ok," I replied
"And bring Sebastian," said Alexa before hanging up.
Ok now I just have to get up, uggh it's meant to be a lazy Sunday oh well
. "Hey Mum do you know where my pink top is?" I asked.
"Yeah it's by the washing," Mum said without even looking up from making breakfast.
"Ok thanks," I said before heading up to my room to change...
Almost ten, "Hey dad I'm going to Alexa's," I said.
"Ok sweetie," Dad said as I headed out.
I walked to a park bench the one with the mayor's name then I started to call Sebastian "bbrring bbrring".
"Hello Isabel, have you come to ask me on a date?" Sebastian said teasing me.
"No," I said giggling, "But can you accompany me to Alexa's place?"
"Sure it would be my honour," Sebastian said.
"Okay meet me at the mayor's bench," I said.
"Okay bye," Sebastian said.
"Bye," I said then he hangs up.
I've been sitting on this bench for quite awhile and just when I'm about to make another call Sebastian appears.
"You took your time," I said but my face was saying where were you?
"Yeah sorry got caught up in traffic," Sebastian said
"Ok let's be on our way," I said as we get into his car.
"Guys, what took you so long?" Alexa asked as we got out of the car.
"And hi to you too," I said jokingly, "We were stuck in traffic,"
"Where's Jack?" asked Sebastian
"He's coming, he's just getting something," said Alexa
"Here I am," said Jack.
"Have you got it?" asked Alexa.
"Yes I'm not stupid," replied Jack. Sebastian and I look at each other are both confused about what exactly is happening, but then Alexa's turns to us and explains.
