Riding the Wind -- INCOMPLETE

The Bet

It was Jace, Jace Hanson. I swear, I could cut his head off and hang it up in my room as a trophy... This is why people don't like me... I was forced to put on a 'happy' smile and greet him. He seemed pretty entertained by the way I was acting because he looked up from his phone and had an annoying smirk slapped on his face.

I walked up to him and shook his hand. "N-Nice to meet you." I said twitching my eye out of irritation. His smirk grew and he said "Nice to meet you too, I'm Jace and I would love to be your friend." I twitched my eye more and clenched my fist.

"Why don't you show him your room Brooklyn?" My mom said trying to get us away so she could talk money. I gave her my best death stare and she gave me the 'I don't have the patience for this' stare right back at me. I sighed and took him up to the hay loft.

I set him down on a hay bale and walked to my room. ALONE. I slipped my boxing gloves on and started punching angrily at the punching bag. I know, I'm a complete tom boy! I don't like make up, dresses, skirts, and whatnot. Whatever, it's not like need all that crap to try and make me look good! I'm not self-continuous about my face or body so take that world!

As I punched the bag, I thought about how everything makes me mad. I wish I could change but I can't and that's that. I punch it harder and harder when I hear a creaking noise, I look back then WHAM. He pins me against my wall, his right hand on my arm and his left hand next to my head. I freeze for a split second then start lifting the arm he hadn't pinned down.

He sees and pins that arm down too. I look at him, highly annoyed. "What do you want?" I asked him in a dark toned voice. "I want to make a bet!" He said like he way toying with me. "Okay..? What's the bet." I ask, still annoyed.

I look around and see he had a blind spot, his crotch! I slowly reposition myself so that I could have an opening. When he took some of the pressure off my arms I kneed him as hard as I could in the crotch and skipped back to my bed. "Well that felt good" I replied smiling as I doze off on my bed. He was on the ground again and he looked like he was in pain. Geez, I didn't knee you that hard..

"Okay, are you happy now?" He replied sarcastically.

I smiled and said "Yup!"

"Okay, so about the bet." He repositioned himself so now he was sitting next to me on the bed. So, I repositioned myself so that I was sitting at my desk chair. "It's a race. If you win, you can make me do anything you want. If I win, you have to wear a skirt to school for one full day."

"What kind of race?" I asked still satisfied with his pain.

"A horse race." I looked at him like he was dumb.

"Wow, you know how to ride?" I asked him.

"Uh, yeah.."

"HA! I'd win with my hand tied behind my back!" I said falling over laughing.

"So, is that a deal?" He seemed.. Evil..

"Sure! If I win I want you to run around the whole school with nothing but your underwear on."

"Deal!" He said jumping out of my bedroom. "Meet me in the field, tomorrow at 4:00pm sharp! Don't be late!" I nodded and he went away.
