The "Enemy"

The Chase

A/N: the picture is of your skateboards. That you own. You designed all of them btw and have a rack for them in your room. They all also have wheels on them.

I woke up the next few days to Scotty running in the hallways. Today I got up to go yell at him. "What the hell Scotty! Your loud steps woke me up again!" he snickered and yelled, "Sorry!" quickly before he slipped out the front door. I was kinda surprised, to say the least. This has been the most Scotty has been out of the house, not working on science projects in a long time. I ran downstairs and grabbed a green apple before heading outside to see where Scotty was going. I had also grabbed my skateboard by the front door. I was a little ways behind him, so I wasn't caught. I saw him turn to a dirt road around a storefront. I was a little confused and when I got closer I saw that there was a tall boy in front of him. I continued to follow until I got to a tall fence and watched from there. It was a large rundown baseball field. I admired my surroundings. It was a very beautiful sight. I heard the crack of a bat when I see the baseball going straight to Scotty. I wanted to say something, but that would have blown my cover. Instead, I just watch the ball fall right into his glove. How he caught it with his eyes close I don't know, but I was proud, to say the least. I didn't want to be seen, so I started to walk away when I heard someone yell. "Hey! Who's there!" I turned around to see a short stubby redhead. I walked out into the open with my skateboard still in my hand. He scoffed. "What's a pretty girl like you doing out here watching us play ball?" I didn't really care what he was saying, so I turned to Scotty. "Great choice of friends, brat." With them all yelling and throwing their gloves at me I left. Once I got to the pavement I hopped on my skateboard. Little did I know was that the boys were still chasing me. My shirt waved a little my swift movements swinging side to side. I turned my head around to see the boys following me, so I decided to try and escape. I saw that there was a big group of girls walking and holding up the whole sidewalk. I went faster to reach the bench they were just passing and skidded my skateboard across the side barely missing the girls and leaving the guys to fend for themselves. I turned into a shop and quickly got off my skateboard. I was just looking around the shop waiting to see the boys pass when another guy came up to me. "Here. You look tired." The boy handed me a cold coke bottle. I refused, but he insisted that I have a drink. I took it and politely excused myself when a heard of boys went by. I skated all the way home and up the steps when I saw Scotty come up to me. "That was rude," he said. "Well he acted like I didn't belong on a baseball field, plus they were chasing me. That seems rude." He shrugged and walked inside when I saw the boy from yesterday walk by looking even more tired. I recognized him as one of the boys chasing me. "Hey!" he looked over. "It's very rude to chase a girl you know." He walked over to my driveway. "I didn't know you were Small's sister." He said. "I'm his half-sister, so you could say that's why I'm better looking." I did a twirl and he just laughed. My dad is his step-dad, so we don't always get along, but you have seemed to help him with baseball. I kinda gave up a while ago. "You play baseball?" "Yeah I kinda had my dad make a team and he put me on it." He shrugged and said he had to go. I turned into my house and went straight to my room. I laid down and took a quick nap when I heard someone open my door. "Abs you should come play with me tomorrow after church." Scotty quickly said. I nodded and pushed him out of my room, so I could take a shower. Once I was done I headed downstairs for dinner and the regular baseball reruns. I got tired quickly from escaping those boys, so I had gone to bed early. Scotty went to bed an hour ago. I snuck into his room and grabbed his hat. I then ran downstairs and threw it into the fire. I decided to give him one of my old hats. I placed it in the same place and headed to bed. Now that I was in my bed I couldn't sleep. I sat up and stared around my room. Putting on some socks I got up and realized mom and dad were asleep. I crept down to the kitchen. The microwave read 12:00. I shrugged and grabbed something to eat. I poured the milk and cereal into a bowl and went outside to the porch swing to eat. I just stared at the night sky from my seat where I was sitting scriss crossed. I then finished my bowl more tired than ever. I walking into the house and started to clean my bowl. Once I had finished I walked slowly up the stairs to my room, so I could try and get some sleep. It was now 1:23 am. I crawled into bed and shut my heavy eyes. I had finally fallen asleep when I turned to my side.
