CHAPTER ELEVEN

A shrill ringing scares the bejeebies out of me and makes me snort in a breath, as if I forgot to breathe while I was sleeping. I open my eyes a hair's width, reach for my cell on the nightstand, and silently curse the caller. It seems to be light out but not very bright, which means it's either going to be a gray, rainy day or this mean person is calling at dawn.

"Hello?" I say without looking at the caller ID. That would require using my eyes, and they want to shut again, which I happily oblige.

"All of my jeans are too tight," Izzie says with disgust. "And don't get me started about my heels. I can't wear them anymore. What am I going to do? I can't wear flats and be…five-four." She whispers her height, like the short police are standing behind her. As if five-four is short.

"What time is it, and why has this become my problem?"

"Because you're my sister, and you care enough to not have me walking out of the house naked and short."

I snort twice and then have to cough. "So you want to go maternity clothes shopping?"

She gasps. "I'll just buy a few things in a larger size."

I try rolling my eyes with my lids still shut, but it just makes me dizzy, so I open them. "If I'm getting out of bed to go shopping, you're getting maternity clothes. Don't be vain."

Suddenly Thomas is sitting beside me, on the edge of my mattress. "I can't find her."

I scream.

Then Izzie screams. "Okay, so I'll buy maternity clothes."

"No, not you. Look, I'll call you back." Before she can protest, I click off. Clothes shopping can wait a bit. I'm sure she's not actually sitting around naked. She has that ratty robe.

"What are you doing here? Why are you scaring me? And who are you?" I sit up and cross my arms over my chest. Partly because I want to look tough and mostly because this white tank top is kinda see-through, and I don't want to give the ghost a peep show.

"Serena's missing."

"What do you mean she's missing?"

"They released her from the hospital, and she's not at my place or Zoe's. I don't know where else she could be."

A hotel and park bench come to mind, but as pressing as this may be, it's not as important as who he is. "I'm sure she's fine. So who are you?"

He frowns and looks at me as if I'm the crazy one. "It's me, Thomas Sterling."

"Yeah, no. The real Thomas Sterling is in Europe with his wife. Who are you really?"

He stares at me for a second. Then poof, he's gone.

How rude.

I quickly dress in leggings, combat boots, a black tank, and a super soft red-and-black plaid, oversized shirt and pick up Izzie. On the ride over the bridge, onto the main part of Long Island, she rambles about clothes while I think of everything I know so far.

Thomas the Ghost isn't Thomas Sterling. Serena doesn't want me to figure out what happened to Fake Thomas.
