"I'm just looking around the neighborhood. I just moved here." you lied. You had to think of some excuse to not tell her who you were. She may be too freaked out about the whole thing.
"Really? Where are you from?" Alexis asked. Shit! You have to think of some story to tell her.
"Oh, I used to live a few towns away. But my dad got a new job here and we decided that it would be easier to move here than for him to constantly drive back and forth."
"Oh, that makes sense. Where does he work?" Damn it! You wish that she'd stop asking questions.
"He...got a managing job at the mall."
"That's cool, I hope you like the neighborhood." She passed by you as you gave a sigh of relief. You were about to pretend like the whole thing never happened when Alexis interrupted you again. "Wait a minute....I think I have that same outfit." FUCK! You have to think of something fast.
"Really? Well, we must have the same taste in fashion...."
"I suppose so. Oh well, sorry to bother you again." You were just going down the path again when you thought of something. What was Alexis doing out here? It was then you remembered that you two were going to hang out today. She was walking that direction to get to your house. If anything you could just ignore it and make it up to her another day, but you left the spell book on the table in plain view. If she took a look at it, test it, look for her outfit you were wearing, or just put it all together. You could be in serious trouble. You start jogging down the other way to catch up to Alexis right before she arrives at your house.
