"Now that will feel a little wierd," she said thoughtfully. Sort of like
Reese's mom would pop around the corner and ground them for life of
something. Going in the attic has always been a pretty huge violation of
her rules. "It's a good idea though, I just hope she hasn't been hiding
Dracula up there." It was partly a joke and partly the truth. If it was
that important you never knew what you might find. "Come on, let's get
looking. Is there power up there?"
OM:
"You sure you're up for this?" Reese asked, finishing off the ice cream and
throwing the stick away "And yeah, there's power. I even know where the key
is kept."
And heaven knew she had more tempted more times than not to go exploring.
She must have been a good kid in that case because she had never gone.
She wiped the palms of her hands onto the black dress pants she still wore
from the service and afterward.
Reese wanted to get up there now.
