A Teenage Dream

chapter 6

Chapter 6

The next day Macy and I had a sleep-over together.  I had got it into Macy’s head that Jason was bad and that we were going to help Sam.  She was reluctant to help Sam, but I got her to snap.

When Macy got to our house, we started planning at once.  We were still going through with my plan, but we were going to modify it just a little bit.  We would have to execute our plan as soon as possible.  We would want to get Sam out of this mayhem as soon as possible.

We both went to sleep satisfied with our plan. The next day we got up and happily went to school.  With all the stuff in my locker, we were worry free.  The day went smoothly, the lunch came.  It was time to execute our plan.  Macy met me at my locker.  We got all our stuff ready.  Macy got a necklace with a hidden camera and I got a cute hat with a camera in it.

We walked into the lunch room ready.  I saw Jason over in the line scooping out the mush that the lunch lady calls “food.”  We both walked right up to him.  Just like before, I asked him why he kept taking advantage of us.  Sure enough he gave me the same excuse, “because I can” he said with a smile on his face.  I almost had to will myself not to show my joy when he said that.  It looked like Macy was having the same problem as me.  Once lunch was over, I was overjoyed.  I have finally gotten evidence that Jason was not at all what he seemed.

He will regret his sour attitude now.  I can’t wait to show Sam this.  She will not believe her eyes.  She will have to believe me once she sees this tape.  As soon as we got the footage, Macy and I hid each tape in different places so if someone steals one tape, they will not steal the other one.  Of course, Macy took her tape and I took mine.  We did not tell anyone where we will hide them, not even ourselves.  Of course, I knew exactly where Macy was going to hide it.  She was going to hide it in her floor safe.  I mean, no one can crack that code.  You would have to pull the safe out of the floor to open it if you did not have the combination, so I know that tape is safe. The problem is, I don’t know where I should put my tape.  I have a safe, but it is not as good as Macy’s safe.  Maybe I need to think about it.

Maybe I could put it in the hidden compartment in my vent.  Yeah! I’ll hide it there.  No one will know that I hid it there.  I mean, who would look there for a video tape.  Just in case, I will put the motion sensors that Macy gave me from the store where she was working all around my room so if anyone tries to come into my room, I will know about it.

I went to bed tonight satisfied that no one was going to break into my house and steal the tape, but I had a hint of suspicion that something was going to happen.

Ara! Ara! Ara! Ara! I woke up.  Someone has triggered my alarms.  To my surprise, someone was standing in the middle of my room.  I got up ready to fight.  I did not know who it was, but I was not going to wait to find out.  I sprang and landed on him.  We rolled around for a while, and then he climbed on top of me and pinned me down.  Then I saw his face.  It was not surprising that it was Jason.  I tried to move, but Jason pinned me down hard.  “I’m only going to ask this once.  Where is the tape?” he roared. “What tape,” I said trying to sound confused.  “The tape you videotaped me on,” he exclaimed.  I willed myself not to tell him where I put it.  He kept asking me the same question about a thousand times, “where is the tape?” But I would not tell him.  Just as I was about to give up and tell him, something weird happened. Something hard struck him on the back of the head.  It was my mom!  I have never been so happy to see her face.  Jason made a face and then fell over.  It looked like mom hit him with a metal pot or something.  I bet it hurt.

I immediately got up and hugged my mom.  Then I told her that we needed to call the police.  Of course she agreed.  We tied up Jason just in case he managed to wake up before the police came.  Although I sincerely doubt it, there is always a chance.  Better safe than sorry.

Three friends stood side-by-side as they watched Jason Anderson get put into the back of a police car.  Sam, Macy and I stood in silence.  Then I turned to Sam and said, “There is something you have to see.” “I know.  You don’t have to show me any evidence.  This is enough.  Anyone who breaks into my friend’s house and pins her down so he can steal something from her shouldn’t be my boyfriend,” Sam said.  “I’m sorry I put you guys through this.  It will not happen again,” she said.  “It’s OK Sam.  We know that it was not your fault,” Macy said.  All three of us smiled.

Jason is going to jail and the three friends are united like never before.  My mom is even more happy than usual.  I think she might be finally getting used to life without dad.  This is truly the perfect ending.  Also, Did I mention that it was my birthday?
