I look left, then peer over to my right, all while staying glued to my corner. I then feel a small hand on my bare upper leg, and look down to meet my younger sister's sparkling green eyes. "Come on Daeley, the boys are ganging up on us!" her little 5 year old voice alerts me.

She then takes off to join my friends Taylor and Sumner behind a flipped picnic table.

"Hold on Junebug, I'm coming!" I sprint over, almost there, just as I feel the splash of a water balloon on my calf.

And I really thought we'd win this time.

So here I am, at another townspeople gathering. It's hot, and everyone is very sweaty.

But we're having fun. Spraying eachother with hoses, throwing water balloons, and squirting with waterguns.

Eating the barbecue that Mr.Pryre is cooking over on my father's grill. Everyone is guzzling down sodas, tea and lemonade. Everyone's smiling, joking, happy.

And I love it. We do this all the time, at least twice a week, not counting the small parties at each individuals' house.

But only in the summer, and only so long as the weather's good.

We do picnics in the spring.

As for autumn and winter, hot cocoa with marshmallows are great. We all just bundle up, then huddle together and tell fun stories. If it gets too cold, we just bring everyone inside. My house is big enough.

I know, because I've had every single townsperson in my home at one time, on several occasions. My father is the mayor.

When I say everyone, I don't mean the world. I am simply talking about my little old town of Riddlyn, South Carolina.

Population two sixty-five, plus one.

A/N So the town name's made up. I'm starting this story over, keeping it short and sweet. There really isn't much of a plot to it, it's just little escapades of the mayor's daughter in a cute little town. Just a small adventure in every chapter. Even though this is small, updates will probably be slow. Sorry, but I'm hardly home for summer, I don't really have time to just sit and write. I know that I'm new, and no one will read this, but hey, if someone does, THANK YOU ;*

Any questions, ask in the comments! PLEASE VOTE, I'd like to know if this is all for nothing or if it's worth something. I'll probably still write either way.

Also, comment 'FARKLE' if you read this, let me know what you think! Even if you dislike it, CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM is welcome. By 'constructive,' I mean, please say it nicely. I have a weak heart ;)

Ciao for now!
