I can't believe Jocelyn stole Jax's pocket watch. I am so mad at her I think I am going to explode. " Let's go get her!" Jax and Ollie exclaim. Everyone jumps out of their chairs and run to the door. Well, everyone except me. "Are you coming, Thief?" Jax asks.
"Uh huh," I mumble.
"What's wrong?" Jax asks sitting next to me.
"Nothing," I reply.
"I can tell something is wrong," Jax says putting his arm around me.
"I said nothing!" I jump out of my chair. I put my hand over my mouth. Jax looks shocked. He runs a hand through his curly blonde hair. "Are you sure nothing is wrong?" Jax asks again.
"No, something is wrong," I admit.
"What?" Jax asks. I take a deep breath. "I dyed one of Jocelyn's dresses pink and that is why she took your pocket watch!" I cry. Jax's eyes widen. Ollie pokes into the room. "Are you guys done with the Jocelyn slash pocket watch chat? We have a thief to catch!" he says.
"Usually I am the one people call thief!" I exclaim, looking at Jax.
"Well right now your Gilly and Jocelyn is the thief," Jax says before he starts running to the door.
I dash past Jax and out the door. I know exactly where Jocelyn will be. I head into the potion lab and see Jocelyn. "Hand it over," I say.
"You may have known where I would be but did you know how you would get the pocket watch back because I'm not just going to hand it over, Cobbler," Jocelyn replies. My blood starts to boil. I lunge for Jocelyn but miss. Well a fight is what she wants then a fight is what she will get. I notice she is wearing that annoying cape of hers. I will do the same thing as I did in Blackbeard's duel a few months ago. I give her cape a hard yank and she falls to the ground. SCORE!
"You think you can take me down Shoemaker?" Jocelyn cackles.
We start doing this the old fashioned way. The name calling way. "Thief!" I exclaim.
"Cobbler!" she fires back. We are still doing this when the rest of the crew pops through the door. "Gilly I thought we agreed on no more fighting with Jocelyn," Maxine whines.
"Sorry-but-it-needs-to-be-done!" I gasp while Jocelyn yanks my hair and I yank hers. Jax's eyes linger to his pocket watch which is on a counter. He dashes towards it and gets it. He slips it in his pocket and exclaims, "SCORE!" Jocelyn jumps off the ground and dashes towards Jax. Jax stops her. Jocelyn starts to mumble something and Jax gets pushed to the ground. I want to help him get up but a part of me says no. "Hey!" Jax gets up and rubs his back.
"You gotta learn how to deal with it Prince!" Jocelyn snaps.
