good kisser, but that small smooch on the cheek gave her butterflies!
          “Now let's go find Cassie, Sky, and Will.” Charlie ordered. “How?” Stella questioned. “We're going to sneak out, and you can buy us a ride to Philadelphia!” Charlie instructed.
          “Then what are we waiting for, let's take the fire escape!” Stella squealed, and ran towards the fire exit. There was no way she was going to miss this opportunity!
          Charlie and Stella stepped down the side of the inn. “Hurry up!” Charlie ordered.
          Holy cow, that hunk runs fast! Stella heaved. Think of the four-hour ride! Just Stella and her dreamboat!
          At the bottom, Charlie looked at Stella. “So what are we doing for a ride?” he asked. Stella perked up as a limousine pulled up. “Who said you can't search in style?” Stella interjected, “Hop in!” Charlie slid inside, and Stella hopped on his lap. “To Philly!” Stella yelled, with her arm wrapped around Charlie's neck. Charlie laughed as the limo left the hotel in the dust.
          Charlie's phone vibrated. Finally, it was already the middle of the night! The text read:
    'Charlie, I just got ur txts, we've sent 100s! Me n Sky were trapped in the bathroom, and Will rescued us. His dad said that our bus broke down and sent us to the new bus. Somehow we went to the wrong bus and are now in Philly. Please help us we r planning on sleeping in an alley.'
          Stella grinned. Charlie shot her a look. “I'm telling them.” Charlie told Stella as he replied 'Stella did it'. “I will never kiss you again unless we find them!” Charlie warned.
          Stella popped up, “So there's more kissing?” Charlie put down his head. Stella ripped out her mirror.
    Favorite mirror of my life,
    Find Charlie's friends so I can become his wife!
     
          Charlie laughed. He was never going to marry her.
          The mirror showed a video of Cassie, Sky, and Will walking down a street.
     
    The ones you see are looking to eat,
    So you can find them on West Campbell Street!
     
          Charlie gaped at the device, “That isn't -” “No, silly, it's not magic! Boop!” Stella reassured, ending her sentence with a tap to Charlie's nose. “You're adorable!” she squealed, “And cute, but mostly hot! You're sups amaze!” Charlie wished Stella would get off his lap.
     
     
          Cassie and Will held hands as Sky followed them down the street. They went around a corner, and sat in a picnic area.
          People who walked by gave them money. Cassie looked at the group and understood why, they were filthy! Who knew that spending the night in a city alley would make them so dirty!
          Within the half hour, they accumulated $34.73. “This should be enough for breakfast!” Cassie exclaimed, “Where do we want to go, and what do we want to eat?” Sky pointed across the street to a grocery store. “How about some groceries?” Skyler suggested. Will and Cassie agreed, and they entered the store.
          There was food everywhere. “Should we get some cereal?” Cassie asked, showing the group a box of Sugaroos. Will nodded and got some milk. Sky grabbed some bowls and took some free spoons from the taste-testing table.
          “That will be $17.65.” said the cashier. Cassie counted out the bills, and grabbed the receipt. “Thank you, have a nice day!” she told Cassie. Sky smiled and followed Cassie to the picnic table. There, Cassie gave everyone some cereal and milk.
          Once they were done, Cassie grabbed the grocery bag and put their items back in. “Let's get out of the city,” Cassie announced, “it will be easier for the others to find us.”
     
     
          Mrs. Spencer awoke to a knocking on the door. She put on her robe and slippers and moseyed to the door. She opened the door and before she could open her mouth, Mr. Braddock yelped, “We lost two more kids!”
          Mrs.
