Free Double Trouble by Tia Mowry

noticed a slight movement behind me. Glancing back, I saw that Gabe had just leaned forward again. He was watching me with a curious little gleam in his eye. I forceda shaky smile, but he just raised an eyebrow and then turned away.
    CASSIE DIDN’T WAIT for me after school, leaving me to walk home alone. When I entered the house, she was on the sofa flipping through a magazine.
    â€œHi,” I said tentatively. “Is Mom home?”
    â€œNope,” she replied without looking up. “She’s working this afternoon. She told us at breakfast.”
    I nodded. Breakfast had been a brief, mostly silent meal, but now that she mentioned it, I did recall Mom going over her work schedule for the week.
    â€œListen, Cassie,” I said. “I’m sorry I was short with you last night. Can we stop fighting already? Please?”
    She finally looked at me and shrugged. “Yeah, that would be good. I’m sorry, too. You know, for letting my friends take over the party or whatever. I promise you can help us plan it and stuff. I also promise that everyone will have a great time, including your dor—uh, your friends.” She grinned. “Even if I have to tie Lav’s mouth shut to make it happen.”
    I smiled with relief. She seemed clueless aboutwhy I’d been so annoyed with her yesterday, but at least she’d apologized for the other stuff. And yesterday suddenly didn’t seem so important.
    â€œGood,” I said. “Let’s both agree to stop getting mad over stupid stuff, okay? Because we really need to work together right now. On a lot of stuff.”
    â€œSing it, sister.” She tossed her magazine aside and stretched. “Can you believe Mom sent our package back?”
    She had a point, but I didn’t want to get sidetracked by another rant about Mom right now. “Wait, I have a question,” I said quickly. “What exactly did you see in that vision the other day? The one about Bianca.”
    â€œNot much,” she said. “It was pretty short. All I saw was her rushing past the hospital sign, heading for the door.”
    â€œAnd she looked upset?”
    â€œVery.” She nodded. “Like she was totally freaked out, actually.”
    â€œOh.” I sank onto the sofa next to her. “Because I had a vision about Bianca and the hospital today,too.” I described what I’d seen.
    â€œWow,” she said. “Obviously someone she knows is going to end up in the hospital, right?”
    â€œSeems like it.” I bit my lip. “And it’s got to be someone she cares about a lot for her to be that upset. So what are we going to do about it?”
    â€œYou mean you want to try to change it? Stop it from happening?”
    â€œOf course!” I said. “What if it’s some kind of accident or something? That’s totally the kind of thing we could stop, right?”
    â€œI guess.” She didn’t sound too convinced.
    â€œWe have to try,” I told her firmly. “Especially since I’m afraid whatever it is might happen soon.”
    â€œWhy do you think that?”
    â€œBecause my vision was superstrong this time.”
    Cassie tilted her head. “Wait,” she said. “It doesn’t work that way, does it? I mean, my visions have been getting stronger all along, but it’s been kind of gradual. At least until recently.”
    â€œMe, too,” I agreed. “But this Bianca one was extra vivid.”
    â€œMine was, too.” She was chewing her lower lip now, the way she always did when she was thinking hard. “So was the one I had about Megan and the dog, though. And that was days ago already.”
    â€œHow do you know that one hasn’t happened yet, though?” I said. “It just showed Megan at home playing with a dog, right? There’s no reason you’d even know when something like that happened. It could have come true the same day you saw
