A Cinderella Story

Chapter 5

Riley POV

I was out on the field with Farkle. He was using a machine to pitch to me. I made contact with the ball and almost him and he let out a girlish scream. "Jeez, that was close Riley."

"Sorry, Farkle."

"Well this is good right? You'll finally meet him."

"I don't know, he sounds almost to good to be true. He's like Mr. Perfect. What if I meet him and I'm not what he expects?"

"Riley, you basically know him. You've been talking in this chat room right when your signed up. This might be your only chance to meet him."

"I don't know."

"If you go, I'll be your escort."

"Really?" Farkle nods his head. "You're the best, Farkle. One last pitch." Farkle put the last ball. Immediately I pictures Lauren's annoying face. I hit the ball as hard as I could, and the ball soared through the the sky and over the the football field.

Lucas POV

As Brandon and I are throwing the football back and forth, a baseball lands in front of me. I look up from the ball on the group and spot a guy cheering while a girl with the bat in her hand acts all shy. "Wow, a girl hit that," Brandon points out.

I point over to the girl that hit the ball. "See, now that's impressive."

I pick up the ball and throw it to the field while Brandon asks me "What are you and Missy going as to the dance?"

"Yeah, I don't think I'm going with Missy."
"Why not?"

"I think I met someone else."

I hear the girl call from the baseball field. "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"Well Lucas, this other person must be worth it."

"I think she will be."
