Mindlessly✔

Frenemies.

The closer we get,the harder it becomes✨

I continue running towards the water, not exactly thinking that I'm going close to it. I just wanted to get away for a moment and not be near him.

What was that all about?

I stand in front of the water and watch the guys neck deep without a care in the world. If they think I'm going to swim that deep they better think again.

"Over here Skye!"Amy's voice breaks my train of thoughts and I turn my head to find her voice. I see her, Paige and the others at the other end of the beach.

I jog towards them and before I get there I'm already panting like a deprived dog.

I really need to hit the gym.

Paige has a ball in hand and Amy is gesturing for me to hurry up with her hands. I scrunch my nose in confusion and ask."Where the hell have you guys been?... I didn't see any sign of the both of you." I put my hands in mid air in gesticulation.

"We were about to play volleyball.You want in?"Paige tugs my arm without waiting for my answer.

Well,guess I'm playing then. Although my last experience with this game wasn't really pretty in gym class. It was like the ball had a mind of it's own because how would you explain me being hit on the nose(God that shit hurt like hell) several times?

Or maybe because Tiana bitc-Mclane was also playing that very day when the "accident" happened as she said.

We all know it wasn't an accident! And for some reason she hates my guts and neither would I not mind seeing her get run over by a truck.

That'd make my day.

We're paired five on both sides, Amy, Paige, Gage( don't ask how he came here),Drew and I are on one team while the other side have Nicole and her side chick, Samantha and the rest.

The other team get to start the game and Nicole has it. Her eyes are on me for some weird reason and I get a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach. Her aim is hard and focused and I almost lose my balance trying to hit it back.

She smiles deviously at me and that's when I realize that this is not just a game. It's Get Skylar Hurt. Well two could play at that game.

Nicole whispers to Samantha about something and they both look at me.

Okay? Apparently Samantha wants my head too.

Ball throwing and hitting continues for some time and I realize I've not hit the ball for a while as the others are really getting into the game, even Gage.

He's so athletic with his perfectly sculpted body and abs that should be illeg-

I don't realize that I've zoned out again until I hear Amy yell."Watch out!"to someone and I'm too dumb to know it's me. Until the ball hits me on my stomach and I land on my butt in pain. I groan loudly as my knees touch my chest and I bury my head in it.

It's official already. The universe hates my existence.

My vision blurs a little as I grit my teeth in pain and groan.

"Are you okay Shortstack?"Gage's eyes move frantically to see if I'm hurt anywhere. For a moment I'm touched by his concern and forget how bad my stomach hurts.

"As you can see I've never felt better."I grit my teeth and smile sarcastically.

"It's only you Shortstack...only you would make a joke even at the point of death."He chuckles at me.
