Forever Mine: G.D.

PE
after my previous class let out, i ran to the bathroom to change since we were playing baseball today.

all i did was slip tights under my dress. after i finished dressing, i ran back to my table in PE.

i sat down and waited for the coaches to let us outside.

"okay," Coach Smith began. "grab the bases, ball, and bat. line up outside."

we all ran outside.

"okay... Ethan. and Kylie." the team captains.

Ethan chose first.

"boy and girl." Coach Smith states.

"Grayson. Miley." Grayson ran to one side of him and i sighed, running to the other.

soon enough, the teams were filled.

"we're batting first." Ethan demanded.

as Kylie pitched the ball, Ethan swung and missed.

"come on," i said. "don't swing unless you know you're going to hit it." i was very competitive when it came to baseball.

Ethan listened and finally walked on his forth ball.

"Miley, you're turn." Coach Smith said, handing me the bat.

i smiled and retrieved it.

looking at first base, Ethan gave me a thumbs up. i just nodded.

i held the bat up and when the ball came to me, it instantly made contact with the tip of the bat.

"go, go, go!" i screamed to Ethan as he ran to second and i ran to first.

but it was out. i hit the ball too far. i got a homerun.

we were actually using a plastic bat and a whiffle ball because it was the closest we could get.

as i crossed home plate, Ethan gave me a high five. "you're a natural." he said.

i smiled and thanked him.

ETHAN
Miley went back to watching the game as Grayson batted. he would've made it to first if he was a little faster.

both Gray and i weren't so great at baseball like we were with football and lacrosse.

"hey bro," i said as Grayson stepped up to my side.

"she's on our team. now's your chance." i told him, motioning to Miley.

he shrugged. "it's no use. she doesn't even know who i am. what's the point, E?"

i rolled my eyes. "yeah, and she didn't know who i was until i talked to her."

he just shrugged again.

"it's easier for you. you're... not as shy, i guess. i don't know, i just don't have good game with girls, ok?"

i places my hand on his shoulder. "that's because you don't try. half the girls in this school are either crushing on me or you."
i said.

he cocked an eyebrow. "well it's obvious Miley likes you."

i shook my head. "dude, if you just talk to her. come on, step up your game."

"not today." was all he said before excusing himself to the restroom.
