"Wake up!" Elizabeth yelled angrily as I yawned. I'm still half asleep! "I said get up!" Xavier groaned. Elizabeth kicked him, "Get up! You have to go hunting!" I sat up in my bed as I stretched my arms out to my side. As I did so, my chest rose up. "Xavier! I said get up! Skylar please wake up Russell and Ansell." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XUBCTsiw5
I nodded my head. I poked my head out to the side of my bed. I looked down to see Russell sleeping soundly. My hair spilled out from behind me to tickle his face, "Wake up." I whispered in a sweet voice. He groaned lightly. I took my hands to grab a pillow and dropped it lightly at his face. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ9a6PQj5I
He laughed lightly, "I'm up." I smiled innocently again. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMg0XPXQfI
I looked over at Elizabeth and said, "I got Russell up." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpxeWE6uth
Elizabeth didn't hear me as she yelled bitterly at Xavier, "Xavier wake the fuck up!" She snatched the pillow out under his heads and threw it harshly at his face. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF8Mw2sDrc
He threw it to the side as he snapped back, "Yeah! I'm up! Shut up!" Ansell woke up with just a poke in his belly. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5GVN4yeg1
"I'm up!" Ansell shouted as Russell was helping Elizabeth. I jumped up and down as I remembered what a beautiful day it was. The sun was hugging the other villagers outside, and I can tell because they were sweating. I don’t blame them either. Some stay out at the market place until supper, just to get a single buy. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmuIWezG2A
"Lizzy can I please go outside?!" I asked impatiently, poking her belly lightly. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniT3I9r8aR
She shook her head as she replied, "Skylar, you have to help Lola and I clean up." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQuJDfP5A6
I sighed, "Alright.” I looked for Lola, but couldn’t seem to spot her. I turned back to face Lizzy. “Hey, where is Lola and Haylee?" I asked her. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3C1Eo9tbn
Ansell looked around, "And Nathan?" Lizzy shrugged casually. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12esOLK8r5
"Haylee is helping Hope. The rest, I don't know." Lizzy replied.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttXfxvNiuP
Thomas walked in through the dark, oak wood, front door, "I brought more blankets!" Lizzy walked up to him. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhmvesKcry
"Do you know where Lola and Nathan are?" She asked him. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0B77WFiiX
He nodded his head and answered, "Yeah. They're at the lake." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKacieB172
I tilted my head and groaned in annoyance, "Again?" He nodded his head and spoke again as he placed the red and blue, wool blankets, down on the bed Lizzy just finished folding, "Yeah." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWP9pZJa9V
Lizzy groaned loudly as she commanded me, "Skylar go get Lola!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43IXTIjLyc
Xavier added in, "And Nathan!” He finally stood up from his bed and continued, “He needs to help!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21t0fQ6Eqx
I nodded my head, "Okay." I walked out of the small house. Yeah, send me again for the one thousandth time! 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOTuO3M7yh
"Skylar!" I turned my head to find Haylee calling my name making her way over to me. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0SZV9S2ne
"What's up?" I asked. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmqATuJSs7
She laughed, "Lola and Nathan sitting on a tree! K-I-" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj1iELkZdU
"Stop it! You know Lola and Nathan hates being teased like that!" I distinctly commanded.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQDhdrcUAS
"Hehehe!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgjvNxXI2Z
"Nevermind. I got to go fetch them." I walked away from Haylee as she went back too. Gosh Lola and Nathan again?! For the fifth time this week! I finally reached the baby blue lake. I saw Nathan laying down with both hands behind his head. Lola, of course, was laying her head on his stomach. She was in the middle of making a flower bracelet out of yellow daisies. I cleared my throat loudly. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAr09pUWhL
Lola's head turned to face me. "Both of you need to come with me." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggYelDYd1A
She groaned, "Ten more minutes!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQka31Ghsq
I shook my head and spoke like a naggy mother, "No! Come on, you have to help Lizzy and I clean! Nathan you have to help Russell, Xavier, Ansell, and Thomas!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTz8eFjVeb7
He smiled warmly at Lola, "Come on." He got up as he helped her up. I rolled my eyes. Yuck! 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhIA8pyS2k
On my way back Lola just gave me that you-ruined-everything look. As we got in the house again, the boys were already on their way to the forest. "You were going to forget me?" Nathan asked as he watched them pass him. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzjAkwNhei
Xavier stepped up, "Just remember the rule we live by; pals before gals." Nathan joined ignored the goodbye and left us.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJLpwl7iHM
As soon as everyone heard the door close Lola turned to me, "I hate you! Nate and I were just about to kiss!" I shook my head with the annoyance clearly spoken onto my face. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l2MfjU41z
"You were making a bracelet." I replied with a bitchy tone. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU3AXzYLJ9
She had hot, bright red fire lit in her blue eyes, "He could've!" I just looked to Lizzy for help. Lizzy looked at Lola with her arms crossed. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U5H1AnsAl
"Just like Xavier practically said, friends before dudes. Well not exactly like that, but you get the point." Lizzy said with the same tone I had.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEOlNyOQ5L
"Whatever!" She put her hands in the sink and began to start washing the dishes. I began to fold the bed as Lizzy straightened the clothes. The house was clean before dawn. "Shopping?!" I yelled with excitement. Lizzy nodded her head, "Yes. Only for food!" I sighed, "It was worth a try." Lola laughed at my failure. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nOS5Cv5M9
I don’t get it. We used to be best friends! I guess I’m just playing in the past. However, I do continue to wonder what happened to us. I bet you anything it was Nathan’s fault. I also always hate how Lola assumes that I’m just jealous of her "love life". Pfft. Bitch. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU7HwgWoqu
"Skylar?" I heard Lizzy speak.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r7RYJmTbN
I had my head shoot up, "Yeah?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHswZ6jQoN
Lizzy smiled, "Thinking about Russell?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYBZ7ngrU1
My face turned bright red as I quickly said, "No!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I6DSDHEQE
Lola joined in with a rude comment, "Haha! You can’t even flirt!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqvDtN575c
"I can too! I just choose not to! He only thinks of me as a friend. I wouldn’t want to lose our friendship." I replied losing my red color in my pale cheeks.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqMOZSCCBp
"Skylar," Lizzy stated, grinning, "You liked him before any of this happened." 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyzYSi2J0L
Lola nodded her head agreeingly, "Yeah. Come on Skylar! Tell him how you feel!"1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJOZPD9PuV
"No. I’m just fooling myself. Lizzy the fruit stand." She turned her head to the right, "Oh!" Lola and I followed. Karolyne smiled at Lizzy, "Hey Lizzy! You want some fruit?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMc8ltGatF
"Yeah, I’d like some mangos please. Oh and some..." Russell. Hm. Just thinking about him can calm any of my worries. No! Stop it! Um, changing thought! Ansell! Lizzy has liked him for even longer than I liked Russell. Just by a little. I always thought they were so cute together. How about Lola and Nathan? Again, Lola liked him longer than I liked Russell. She met him when she was like seven. Aw, how cute. The only thing that bothers me is that she spends more time with him than she spends more time with me and Lizzy, combined! 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRc47y4hGz
"Skylar! Stop daydreaming! Let’s go to the veggies!" Lizzy said. I nodded my head and followed.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzpQtj679e
Trust me, I’m not a lap dog. I’m just following her to help her carry things. "Skylar! Stop thinking about him!" Lizzy smiled jokingly again. I felt my face burn with embarrassment, again! 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNzXf7WVPN
"For the last time, I’m not!" I argued.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJpp3ARJIo
"Uh-huh. Sure." Lola and Lizzy began to laugh. Lola picked on me more, "Skylar and Russell sitting on a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5lPi6mCa4
"Stop it!" I hopelessly pleaded. Just then we heard some laughter. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Zsng9Lpk7
"I guess they’re back early." Lizzy predicted. We turned back and went for home. Home. Wow, I never thought I’d call a place home again. I lost so many. First in Tustin. Then Garden Grove. Tustin again. Lakeview. Now I’m back at Tustin, but it’s changed. The economic system is all wrong. There’s a forest right near us now. It started when I was seven. Though we never knew it. Then tragic struck. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9blgdzy5C3
"Whoa! That’s a lot of meat!" Lizzy exclaimed. Xavier nodded his head proudly. I saw Nathan talking to Lola. Haylee walked in and ran up to me. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb79PaiZPs5
"Skylar! Guess what?!" She asked me with excitement. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW447V10MTg
I tilted my head, "What?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGpN7KLklW
"Marley is pregnant!" I stood there shocked. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXcAG2e2uA
"What?" I lifelessly asked. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC7m5WaB2a
She nodded her head, "Can you believe it?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9VfFMQMBr
I shook my head, "Who’s the dad?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjx6IEeghd
She lifted her shoulders up, "I don’t know! She did so many boys that nobody knows!" Everyone listened. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj33ZhyhjAF
Lizzy walked up, "How do you know this?" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgPiEiNceG
"She was making a big scene! She told her boyfriend about it and he denied being the father!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa4XQopejB
Lizzy announced, "What a coward!" 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5SVJZ7zKf
I nodded my head. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA8AQHzlYJ
Thomas shrugged, "You can’t blame him."1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM8eCcRX1G
Lizzy, Haylee, Lola, and I both glared at him. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ehAgsZbum
"If he’s possible of being the father then he should man up and take responsibility!" Lizzy argued. That’s what I admire about Lizzy. She’s not afraid to throw her opinion out there. She’s so confident in what she believes in. I however, just agree with everyone else. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4POcS0JORa
"Yeah! She did a mistake! She should have someone there for her!" Lola agreed. I also love that in Lola. She doesn’t care what anybody thinks about her. If someone calls her a bitch, she’ll either own it or shake it off like it was nothing! 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMObkH0PGQZ
"Come on guys! That slut had it coming!" Nathan yelled. 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdaprhMbkz
Haylee just laughed, "Laugh it off guys! It’s funny!" I like that about Haylee. She’ll try her best to lighten the mood. She’d make anybody’s day with just one of her jokes.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukBVCRknsj
"Guys!" I finally spoke up, "Stop it! It’s none of our concern! He made his decision. It’s his and he choose it! There’s nothing we can do about it!” 1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPjWAcjU1k
Silence surrounded the room. Everything was dead quiet. This all was happening too fast. Marley pregnant? Gosh, I know she does those things, but who ever thought she’d pay like this?1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdMAFXtWMg
Ansell decided this moment to change the subject as he admired the meat, "Look at all this meat we got!" Everyone nodded at examined the meat making comments and remarks about the meat. I looked at Russell. He was doing the same- looking at the meat. I just stood outside the circle. Just stared and stared and waited for someone to notice me. Just like everyday.1399Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovX7vVgZLf
