Harper Rogers And The Soul Keeper - Book One

Chapter II: Me Hayden, Lukas, And Ava Get Hurt

Ok. Me with a friend/crush on the first day of school. What? Hayden and I have a lot in common. We spend our lunch and recess together with Ava. Of course, she'd drag Lukas in. It's crazy that all of our classes are together. Hayden's age is 15. He was born in 2006. It's so crazy that we both like Biology. He said it was this one subject that got him into Newport Academy.

"Hey wanna hang out later?" he asked me during lunch.

"Sure," I said.

The final bell rang and we were dismissed. We strolled together in the courtyard talking about our weekends yesterday.

"We went to Octopus water park. I wish you were there Harps," he said to me.

"Me too."

He told me that on Thursday he had a football tournament. I said to him that my family and I will be there to support him. It'll be the best day of his life he said.

Thursday came and it was after school. We went home to have something to eat and we went back to Newport at 3:15. (Well we're supposed to arrive at 3:30 but I like being early.) We saw Hayden practicing on the field. Lukas, Ava, Mom, Dad, and I waved at him and he waved back.

3:30 came and most of the bleachers were full. The Rockets (Hayden's team) and The Black Stars were on the field. The timer started. The game began. I was cheering at the top of my lungs. Probably tomorrow I'll have no voice. Anyways we cheered and groaned and cheered again and groaned...again. Eventually, the Rockets won. We whooped and whooped.

"Hayden you were AMAZING!" I said when he climbed the bleachers.

"Thanks, Harps!" he said to me. He told us he was gonna take a short shower and then Lukas, Ava, Hayden, and I were gonna eat out. I talked to my Mom and Dad and they said okay to go to eat out. But with my brother's protection. OK, Mom.

After five-six minutes Hayden was back. We got Lukas's car and we drove. Mom and Dad left before us and we said goodbye. The next thing that happened was I fell asleep. Because when I woke up, my head was on Hayden's shoulder. I saw his head over my head. I was nervous and went back to sleep.

An hour passed, (Or maybe days,) and we arrived. My head was still lying on Hayden's shoulder. I got up and he woke up. We hopped out of the car and we went to Chic, Chick, Chicken. We ate and talked. We talked about (me and Ava), about hair colors, and talked about (Lukas and Hayden) about sports.

So Ava and I talked and ate. It was 8:30 at night and we were full and sleepy. We kinda dozed off for 2 minutes. So Hayden and I were beside each other so I dozed off again on his shoulder. When both of us woke up there were 2 - 3 people left in the restaurant. One of the people left in the restaurant was wearing a black hoodie staring directly at me. I said, "Hey why are you looking at me?" and he shifted his head back to his plate.

After that, we got up and paid the bill. Lukas drove us to Hayden's house because it was closest to the restaurant. When we passed an intersection then a truck came zooming and rammed and the car hit a lantern and it hit the car.
