CHAPTER 9

Rob circled above, waiting for Rachel to come out of her grandmother’s house. He knew it would only be a matter of time before she would come outside and once she did he would be there to sweep her off her feet and make her fall in love with him. He didn’t dare land or go within sight of her grandmother because her grandmother would be able to sniff him out and she would know that he was up to no good. He had seen her do it before, and he didn’t want to risk getting in her way. If her grandmother found out what he was about to do, she would kill him on the spot and that was not a risk he was willing to take.

After what felt like days, although it was probably more like an hour, Rob heard the front door of Rachel’s grandmother’s house slam shut.

“BYE, GRANDMOTHER!” Rachel said, as she walked outside into the evening air.

He saw Rachel wave toward the window and then start walking down the long woodsy path by her grandmother’s house. Once he was sure she was out of range of her grandmother he quickly swooped down and landed right in front of her.

“AH!” Rachel let out a shriek.

“Hello, my darling,” Rob said, smiling dreamily at Rachel.

“Rob! What are you doing here?” Rachel asked.

“I came to find you. I missed you. I had to see you again,” he said, almost believing his words.

“What do you mean? I thought you were dead,” Rachel said.

“I survived!” Rob said. “It was brutal, but I pushed through.”

“Are you okay?” Rachel asked. “After what happened I thought I’d never see you again.”

“Did you want to see me again?” Rob asked, feeling hopeful that she would fall for him quicker than he’d anticipated.

“I mean…I thought about you, but just figured you were dead so I let it go,” Rachel answered.

“I haven’t stopped thinking about you,” Rob said.

Rob looked into Rachel’s eyes and noticed that she started to get a confused look on her face. He didn’t know what she was thinking but he could tell she was debating something in her mind.

“Why did you come down here anyway? After everything that happened between us, you’re lucky I’m even speaking to you right now!” Rachel said.

“Whoa! Excuse me!” Rob remarked. “What’s gotten into you!”

“I just, I don’t know why you came here. And how did you find me anyway? Nobody is supposed to know where I am,” Rachel added.

Rob didn’t know what to say. She was supposed to be incognito down in the swamps with her grandmother and he would never have found her if it weren’t for the help of her mother’s crystal ball. He was thinking long and hard about how to answer her since there would be no believable reason why he would be down in New Orleans anyway.

“Well, you see, I was elected to be the leader of the debate team at school, and they sent a few of us down here for the state’s debate,” Rob said smoothly.
