of
famous.”
    “Huh?” Linda and Michael said.
    “Well, I left to California to support my
dad in his trial against fraud. I didn't want to tell you guys
because you guys always think of me as perfect. I didn't want you
guys to know how terrible my life has been. That's when I met
Christian—”
    “You don't mean Christian Monroe do you?”
Michael said. “That abusive actor, right?”
    “Yeah, and so that's why I couldn't bring
him around,” Hannah said. “And he doesn't abuse me if that's what
you're wondering.”
    “And Lucy knew this?” Linda snapped as she
nodded. “Why didn't you tell me?”
    “I thought you knew,” Lucy said. “I just
thought you were being crazy Linda again with all your theories. I
didn't know it was this bad.”

    Linda hugged Hannah and gave her a kiss,
“Wow, I feel so stupid.”
    “I'll be back,” Adam said as he got out the
car.
    “Okay, can we talk later about this
nonsense.” Michael leaned over the seat and began to dig around
Tyler's pockets. “We need to get rid of him!” Gently, he pulled out
Tyler's wallet from his pocket and handed it to Linda.
    Her eyes narrowed as a detective's badge was
the first thing she saw. “Dammit, we made a mistake...” She looked
at his ID and his age was really thirty-four—Tyler Jenkins from
California. “He's an undercover detective?” she questioned.
    “Huh?” they all gasped and put their hands
out to see the badge.
    Hannah scratched her head in confusion, “So,
he is working with the police? He thinks I was with Dr. Smith too?
Ew!”
    Linda smiled and tried to wake him up. “Now,
I know why he didn't want to kiss me!”
    Michael rolled his eyes, “Who cares!”
    Hannah grabbed Linda’s wrist. “Hey, this is
the same—”
    “Apparently the jocks do it.”
    Hannah looked out the window to see where
Adam was. He was still checking out the car. “Did Adam do this to
you?”
    “Um, yeah.”
    “Why is he even here?” Hannah snapped. “He's
a little sketchy.”
    Linda raised one eyebrow, “You're funny, you
think Adam is sketchy...since when?”
    Tyler jumped up and began to kick his legs,
ready to protect himself. “...I swear, my gun doesn't have bullets,
but if you hit me again—”
    Quickly, Linda put her hand over Tyler's
mouth shutting him up. “You're a cop,” she nodded and smiled. “Why
didn't you tell me?”
    “I was trying to,” he snapped. “I'm
undercover, I can't just tell you that sort of stuff. I thought you
guys would be mad at me.”
    “So, you know a lot about the murders?”
Hannah said. “Like what do you know so far?”
    “I can't say,” he said and tucked his gun in
his pants.
    “Please! Tell us, or we will tell that
you're a cop!” Hannah yelled. “Tell us!”
    “Okay!” Tyler snapped. “I never thought I
would be intimidated by a cheerleader.”
    “I'm on the dance team, just to correct
you.”
    “Who cares!” Linda said. “Tell us what you
know, Tyler.”
    “Well, we discovered that the person who are
doing the murders is connected to the Mandy Perez case—”
    “The chick who died last year. Her?” Michael
said as he stared at Hannah, which he knew she knew very well.
    “Yup,” Tyler nodded. “And we also realized
it's not the work of some random person, but someone who attends
the school.”
    “So, like a student?” Linda said.
    “A very psycho student,” Michael said.
    “And it's not me,” Hannah said. “Just
putting it out there.”
    “Well, at this moment...it can really be
anyone. I mean, everyone is a suspect at this point. Even you
guys,” Tyler said. “But, let's not talk about me being a cop.”
    “Can we tell Adam?”
    “He doesn't like me,” Tyler said. “He's the
last person I would want to know. Let's just keep this between us.
Plus, I liked you guys even though I think I can be your dad.”
Tyler chuckled and put his wallet back into his pocket.
    Adam got back into the car, “I think I fixed
the car,” he cheered as he turned it on.
