I don’t want to ruin her childhood scared a Jerkie is hiding under her bed,” Cassandra said, reffering to the olny demon who would try to scare little children. “You do check right?” Simon said jokingly. Cassandra nodded. “I hope that those pesky fairies won’t try and ruin the surprise,” Simon said. Cassandra laughed.
