| Chapter 7 |
| Tara got off the plane and looked around. � So this is England, huh?� She asked herself. She saw the same guy that she saw at the mall months ago with the exact same hat and sunglasses on waving at her. Tara smiled at William. She ran all the way over to him and when she got close enough she half jumped, half hugged him. � It�s so good to see you again!� Tara said to William, still hugging him. � I�m glad that your parents let you come.� William said. � Well, it took some convincing and that since you�re the prince you wouldn�t dare do anything bad.� Tara said. William just smiled. When they got to William�s home Tara was shown her room that she would be staying in for two months. She unpacked and her and William decided that William would show Tara around London. Cathy followed closely behind. She dialed the phone number to her boss�s office. � Hello, it�s Cathy�. Yes, I�m hot on their trail�. Sir, I thought that you said she wouldn�t give us trouble.... Yes, I know he can�t get married to a catholic. But they seem to be pretty close, sir�. If you say so, sir.� Cathy hung up the phone and continued watching William and Tara. William�s mates were around the corner that Tara and William were going around. They saw them and walked over. � Wills, who�s this Bird?� Asked his friend Michael. � This is me mate Tara, Tara meet me mates Michael, Thomas, and Jonathon.� William introduced Tara to his friends. � Hi.� Tara said quietly like she always did when she met someone or some people new. � She�s shy when she meets new people, so don�t tease her like I know you will.� William told his friends. � Don�t worry Wills, we won�t.� Jonathon said nicely. He stuck his hand out to Tara. � It�s nice to meet another one of Wills mates.� Said Jonathon while Tara took his hand and shook it. They all talked a little longer, but soon William and Tara had to go back. On the way back a tree branch fell down in front of them. � That could have killed us!� Cried Tara. � I know, a lot of these accidents keep happening around me.� Said William looking around. He took Tara�s hand a dragged her around the branch and they continued to walk home. Weeks later William and Tara were watching TV in William�s room with popcorn. They had a huge popcorn fight in the middle of the movie, by the time it was done the movie was over. Tara had popcorn pieces in her red-brown hair and William had popcorn down his shirt and in his hair. Tara helped William pick the popcorn off him while William picked popcorn out of her hair. After the movie was over they went in the backyard to play catch because they were bored. � Watch out William!� Tara yelled. Another tree branch, but bigger this time was about to fall on William. He heard Tara and looked up to see it and get away before it dropped. � William, I think there�s something going on. You�ve almost been hit by a car THREE times, you were almost hit by a tree branch TWO times, you were cut on the arm, and you somehow slipped on the bridge and almost fell off! I honestly think someone is trying to kill you.� Tara said. |
