Gone Forever

Caboose's POV

It all started one summer break at a park in North Dakota. I was playing basketball with my friends. The game was tied and I needed to score for my team. I saw an opening. I rushed toward the goal. One of the guys got in the way to block me. I had to think quickly. I threw the ball down between his legs. I ran past him and grabbed the ball. I leaped into the air and made a slam dunk. My team cheered. We won the game. They ran up towards me and practically pounced on me, saying "awesome dunk man!" or "Way to go!"

On the benches near the court, I could hear some girls talking about me, saying how awesome I was at basketball and everything. It was getting annoying. I looked at the bench next to them and I could see a girl about my age. She was staring at me with blue eyes that seem to almost resemble the ocean. She was smiling at me. I found myself lost inside her eyes and smile. I smiled back at her and she laughed playfully. I went over to her and sat next to her.

"Hello, I'm Caboose. What's your name?" I asked her.

"My name is Keira. It's a pleasure to meet you Caboose." She said as she smiled. There's that smile again. That captivating smile that I find myself lost in. those cherry red lips. So beautiful. I just felt like kissing them. Unfortunately, I brought myself back to realty.

"So do you wanna hang out or something? You know, to get to know each other." I asked.

"Sure! That sounds like fun!" said Keira with a cheerful tone.

"Alright then! Meet me at the fountain in the park tomorrow at noon." I said

"Okay!"

"Well then I'll see ya tomorrow then." I said as I got up.

"Alright then, see ya tomorrow then Caboose!" she said as she got up and walked away. I fell back down onto the bench and sighed happily. I was gong on a date with a pretty girl! Well...it's not really a date but at least I get to spend time with her!

One of my best friends, named Lavernious Tucker (I just call him Tucker), came over and sat next to me. "So what did she say?" he asked

"She said that she will hang out with me tomorrow!" I said, practically jumping up and down and doing back flips in my head.

"Awesome! I'm proud of you Caboose. Back in grade school you used to be afraid of girls." Said Tucker

"Yea I know but when I saw her, I felt like I could talk to her like she was my sister or something."

"So what do you think you guys will do tomorrow? Just walk around and talk?"

"Maybe. We could also get some ice cream or something."

"Or orange juice?" said Tucker as he smirked.

"ORANGE JUICE!!!!!!!!!!!" I said as I jumped out of my see and jumped up and down.

"Whoa man, calm down. I know orange juice is your favorite thing to drink but you seriously need to calm down every time I say it." Said Tucker as he leaned back into the bench, staring at the cloudless, blue sky.

"Easy for you to say." I joked.

"Whatever. Hey wanna go to my house and play some video games?" Tucker asked.

"Sure, I said as I got up and ran towards Tucker's house, "I bet I can beat you to your house!"

"Oh no you can't!" said Tucker as he, too, got up and ran toward the direction I was going in.

I can not wait until tomorrow!
