The rest of Chapter 11

I added a little bit to my chapter, so this will be a short post.

“Nikki? You okay? You look like you’re staring into space,” Riley said.
“What? Oh, I’m sorry. I was just thinking,” Nikki blinked. “Man, I’m tired. Running from people in the middle if the night in the rain sure wipes you out,” Nikki yawned. “After we talk, can we go to bed?”
“Yes, I got a room with four beds,” Mrs. Pinebaum said.
In Mrs. Pinebaum’s room, Riley, Kiley, and Nikki flopped down on the beds.
“Oh, so comfortable! Zzzz,” snored Kylie.
“I move to sleep first and talk later. We haven’t slept in two days!” Nikki said.
“I second the motion,” said Riley as they both drifted off to sleep.
“Oh well. Telling Nikki can wait. They need their sleep, the little adventurers. Aah, they look so peaceful. Probably the best sleep they’ve had in a while,” Mrs. Pinebaum sighed.

I don't know what Mrs. Pinebaum will tell her yet. She has to tell me herself! So far she hasn't let me down. :-)
