‘I walk over to her and wipe them away, “Heyno crying.”

“I like a girl, why shouldn’t I cry.”

“I wont be your friend.” ‘I smirk’

“Your mean,” ‘She stops though her eyes still red, “Besidesit’s not bad to like a girl.’

“Itit isn’t.”

“Of course not you whiny baby, you feel more if you like girls.” ‘ I sat down by the fence that separates my home from the large field of grass.’

“WellI kind of feel that waybut how do you know youlike girls.”

‘ I take out a hidden cigarette from underneath a piece of wood, I hid it one day when my aunt left her pack out.’

Shane:- “Well, when your close to a girl, and you find yourself thinking about her, a lot, you like girls.”

Alice:- ” WowHey, those things are for adults.”

Shane:- “Yeah, yeah.” ‘I take out my old lighter and lit it, handing it to her.

Alice:- “Are you kidding me, I got to go home, my mom will smell it own me.”

‘Alice stands back until I was threw, fanning as much of the smoke away as she could.’

‘I throw the butt away and lay back on the grass, the sun setting own my skin, she joins me, her body was now close to mind, and comfortable again.’

Alice:- “When are the light bugs coming,”

Shane:- “It depends, if I can go threw the fence today, and if you’re aloud to stay out.”

Alice:- “Hey my mom would like me to get out, so I’ll stay out with you all night.” ‘She hides a blush, “Cute.”

“I’m not!”

“Okay your ugly then.”

“Your so mean!”

‘She jumps on me and tickle me, “No I hate when people do that.” ‘The whole back yard is filled with are laughter, I end up having to sit on her back, “Are you going to stop.”

“No, get off me, or I’ll cry.”

‘I get off of her and stick my tongue out, “Crybaby.”

Alice:- “Am not.”

‘We spent the entire evening together until it was time for me to show her the light bugs. ‘I help her climb over the fence, a lot of whimpering (own her behalf), could be heard.’

‘I looked back at the house and made sure my aunt hadn’t came out to see about me yet, and continued on my way.’
