《Sqampy's Adoption》The Party

Advertisement

Izzy's PoV:

I could tell that Tom had the same thought as me from the way he was smiling. We both turned around and looked at Squid who gave us a confused look.

Tom grabbed his wrist and dragged him into the room closest too us. I guessed that it was the lounge as there were two sofas and a tv. They sat down on one of the sofas and me and Nicole sat on the other.

I could tell she was as confused as Squid was, I just gave her a knowing smile and looked back to Squid and Tom.

"What's going on Tom?" Squid asked.

"Me and Izzy both think that Stampy and Sqaishey should adopt Flo." He stated.

"No! I don't think they'd want to!" Squid said, but the more he denied it, the more you could tell the idea was starting to make sense to him.

"Okay maybe they should but I don't think they will even consider the idea without someone putting it into their heads." Squid explained. We all looked at him expectantly.

"Why are you all looking at me? I'm not going to tell them, it was your idea!" He said pointing and Tom and I.

"Well we can't, he is your best friend!" I said.

"And you know him the best." Nicole finished off for me.

Squid sighed and eventually gave in and left the room to talk to them.

5 minutes later we heard some shouting and someone running down the hall and out the front door. I immediately knew it was Flo, she had been given crutches to use instead of her wheelchair and you could hear the crutches vibrating the wooden floor.

I stood up just as Squid came through the door.

"They don't want to adopt Flo and she heard them say that which made her really angry!" He said in a panicked voice

I ran out of the room past Squid and out the front door. I ran to the end of the driveway and looked out onto the road. I could see Flo turning left onto another road. I was pretty sure she was heading to the park. Wait, THE PARK! That's where I was attacked by Craig's gang, they might be there again, I knew that they were there a lot. Sqaishey and Squid appeared behind me, I looked at Sqaishey with a scared expression.

"I think she's going to the park." I said to Sqaishey hoping she would remember.

She looked confused for a second before the same worried expression appeared on her face as well. I looked to Squid, he looked just as worried.

"We have to get there fast! Come on!" Squid said, dragging me to our house.

He started to get in the car when I saw his BMX bike leaning up against the side of his house.

"You and Sqaishey go in the car, I'll take the bike, I know a shortcut." I said grabbing the bike." He nodded and climbed into his car.

He turned on the engine and let me pass on the bike.

I was stood up and peddling at full pace down the road, I looked back and I could see Squid pulling out of his driveway. I turned back round and saw the path which would take me directly into the park rather than having to go all the way round to the car park.

Flo had gone round the other way so I knew she hadn't taken this path, I was hoping that I would reach the park shortly after her.

I shot out of the path and entered the park. There was a green field with some play equipment in one corner but there was a wooded area with loads of different paths going through it.

I quickly scanned the field but, as I expected, she was nowhere to be seen. I headed for the wooded area but as I was going there I saw Squid's car pull up in the car park. I swerved and turned round, cycling towards them instead. Just as I did I saw the two girls who had been there the night that Craig beat me up.

I ducked my head so they couldn't see my and cycled even faster towards Squid and Sqaishey.

"Those girls," I said pointing, "they were there, that night."

I saw Sqaishey look, I could see the recognition in her face.

"If we follow them that could lead us to Craig." I said.

"Okay, I'll follow them, you girls stick together." Squid said. We both nodded.

"You go that way, I'll go this way." Squid said, gesturing a route. We nodded again.

Sqaishey stood on the pegs on the back wheels and held onto me while I started pedalling in the direction Squid had said to go.

"I hope he will be okay." I said to Sqaishey over my shoulder.

"He'll be fine, he knows what he's doing."

"Yeah I guess. Anyway where do you think they will be?" I asked Sqaishey.

"Well, when it was you they were in a hidden area. So I guess we should head to the back of the park."

I agreed and started cycling deeper into it. As we got further in there became less and less people until we felt like we were going through a completely empty wood.

"Wait, do you hear that?" Sqaishey whispered in my ear. I stopped cycling and listened.

"What are we going to do with you two then?" Said a voice.

"Well you've already hurt Squid so leave him alone!"

That was clearly the voice of Flo. I turned to look at Sqaishey, she was pale.

"Stay here, call Stampy, tell him to bring Tom, Ash and James and to come on bikes. I'll meet them in the car park." I whispered to her. She got off the bike and pulled out her phone as I cycled at full pace back to the car park.

It took me five minutes to get to the car park and when I did Stampy, Ash, Tom and James were all sat there on BMX's. They saw me and started coming towards me.

"Sqaishey told us everything, where are they?!" Stampy said.

"Follow me." I replied, turning around.

I never thought I'd see Stampy on a BMX but I decided now was not the time to mention that.

We cycled all the way back, I think some kids we passed recognised us but we were going so fast they didn't have time to think.

When we got there Sqaishey was crying.

"They've knocked out Squid and Flo." She said through her tears. I was shocked but then Ash started to speak.

"Okay so here's the plan, James, Stampy and I cycle through them too distract them. Then Tom, Sqaishey and Izzy get Squid and Flo."

I got off my bike and crept closer to them. Squid and Flo were lent up against the fence that marked the back of the park and, sure enough, they were knocked out.

I saw the guys cycle in on their bikes so Sqaishey, Tom and I followed. Sqaishey grabbed Flo who looked fine, she just had a slight graze on her forehead but nothing major. But Squid was much, much worse. He clearly had tried to fight them as he had a black eye, a nose bleed and a split lip, as well as loads of grazes on his face.

Tom went to grab Squid and it hit me why they had grazes in their faces.

"Tom! They were throwing stones at them." I yelled.

"Yeah we were!" I heard one of the gang yell back.

"Izzy! We are going!" Sqaishey yelled to me. The boys were still distracting the gang.

I ran back to my bike where Sqaishey was standing, Flo had woken up and was sitting on the saddle as she couldn't stand without her crutches.

"How are we going to get back? We can't walk as they have done something with Flo's crutches and I can't carry her all that way!" Sqaishey told me.

I thought for a moment, then saw over her shoulder Tom's bike, he must've left it as he was carrying Squid.

"I have an idea." I announced.

My idea was that Flo would get on the bike and rest her legs on the pegs at the back, the Sqaishey would cycle standing up. As crazy as it sounds it actually worked!

"I'm going to go ahead and see if Tom needs help." I told her.

I looked to the boys who were still with the gang. I gave Ash a thumbs up to say we were leaving and he nodded back. They would leave when they could.

As I said I cycled ahead and caught up with Tom just as he was nearing the car, still carrying Squid. There were lots of kids around them, some my age and some younger.

"Tom! You okay?" I asked. Cycling around the kids and standing in my bike so I could see over them.

"Yeah, do you mind grabbing the car keys from Squid's pocket?" He asked.

The kids parted to let me through, obviously recognising who I was. I grabbed the keys and unlocked the car so Tom could place Squid in the back.

"Where's Flo?" Tom asked me.

"Sqaishey's bringing her on your bike." I replied.

"Good, I was sad that I had to leave that." He stated.

Sqaishey, Flo and the rest arrived 5 minutes later, so we got Flo in the car and Tom said he would drive it back.

So the rest of us grabbed a bike and cycled back after taking some photos and signing some stuff for people.

When we got back and placed Squid and Flo on the sofas in Squid's house.

Sqaishey and Stampy were still talking with Flo so maybe there was hope yet!
