"Mommy can you tell me the story again?"

"Again?are you sure?I've told you this story so many times."

"Please??"

"Ok,ok."

"When I was in middle school,I had the greatest group of friends..."

Morgan's pov
Nobody ever wanted to be my friend in elementary school,so I knew that middle school would be different.it was when I met my group of friends:Chris Chambers,the leader.Gordie Lachance,he always liked wearing his(dead)brother's cap.Teddy Duchamp,the daredevil of the group.did you know that his dad burned his ear?i always feel bad for Teddy,and yet he still looks up to his dad!anyways,Vern Tessio is the fat kid of the group.he once told us that he hid a big jar of pennies under his house,but to this day he's never found it.and last but not least,me:Morgan Stanley.i loved taking pictures,I still do to this day.i always believed that one day my pictures would make a difference.

And that's what happened on that fateful year

I remember it like it was almost yesterday:I was in the treehouse with Chris,Gordie,and Teddy.Chris and Teddy were smoking as we all played cards together,I wasn't really good at playing cards but I was trying to get better at it."Hey,How do you know a frenchman's been in your backyard?"Chris asked,"hey I'm French ok?"Teddy said.Chris ignored him and continued,"Your garbage cans are empty and your dog's pregnant."we all(except for Teddy)laughed."didn't I just say I was French?"Teddy asked,"I knock."Chris said.

"Shit!"

"Twenty-nine."

"Twenty-two."

"Go piss up a rope!"Gordie said,throwing his cards down in disgust.Chris,Teddy,and I began to laugh."Gordie's out!Ole Gordie just bit the bag and stepped out the door!"Teddy said,"Come on man, deal."Chris said.i decided to stop playing because I could see it was getting competitive,I got up and sat near the radio.there wasn't any good music on right now and the news is boring to me,seriously:how can adults listen to this crap all the time?

"I knock."

"You four-eyed piece of shit!"

"The pile of shit has a thousand eyes!"

we all(except for Teddy once again)laughed,"What!? What's so funny?"he asked."nothing Teddy nothing."i said,he grinned and shook his head."Come on. I've got thirty."he focused on the game again,"What've you got?"he asked Chris."sixteen."Chris replied,"Go ahead, keep laughing. You're down to your ride, pal."he said.suddenly I heard a knock on the trap door,I sighed."that's totally Vern."I thought,"That's not the secret knock!"I yelled."I forgot the secret knock,lemme in!"Vern called out,"Vern."all three of us said."come on guys open up!"Vern begged,I sighed and opened the trap door.Vern climbed into the treehouse,"Oh man!You guys are not gonna believe this."Vern said as I closed the trap door.
