hey guys! Okay, I know a lot of people have written the 'what if a girl was there when the guys went on their adventure' stories, but I'm gonna put my own twist on it. Hope you guys like it. :)

"GET UP PINK! COME ON, I TOLD CHRIS WE'D MEET HIM IN AN HOUR!" Gordie yelled at me from downstairs. I was upstairs in my room getting ready for the day.

I threw on a pair of jean shorts and a tank top, then I quickly brushed out my blonde hair, not bothering to put it up in a pony tail.

"I'm coming!" I yelled back.

I was 13 going on 14 this summer, all the other guys were 12 going on 13. We were all best friends, Gordie, Chris, Teddy, Vern, and me. My name's Audrey Desjardins by the way, but no one really calls me that, everyone calls me Pink. Weird nickname, to be honest I don't even know why everyone calls me that. It's not like I'm a girly girl, but I'm not a tomboy either. I'm just normal, like everybody else.

Gordie was now waiting for me because we were going off to meet everyone up in the tree house to play cards, pretty much what we did all the time.

I ran downstairs, trying to avoid my brother at all costs. My brother, Vince, was 16 and he hung out with this gang called the Cobras. He started hanging out with them ever since we came here, which was when I was about five and he was eight. We moved from Chicago, and it was a big difference moving from the big city to a town with about only 2,000 people.

"Hey Gordie." I said to him while grabbing two PB & J's from the fridge for me and him.

"Hey Pink. You ready to go?"

"Yup."

Me and him both walked out, talking about how good the PB & J's were, when we saw them.

"Well look what we have here boys." Ace smirked while looking down at us. Neither me nor Gordie were very tall, Ace had to be at least five inches taller than the both of us.

I was nervous because yesterday I had told Ace to go suck his mom's dick. Yeah, let's just say that probably wasn't the greatest of ideas.

"Nice to see you too Ace. We'd like to chat but we've made prior arrangements." I said, trying to sneak passed him.

He stopped me from going passed him, and I knew what was coming.

"Since I'm feeling nice today, I'll only give you a shiner." He said and grabbed my elbow, pulling me back towards the house. Yeah, Ace wasn't afraid to hit a girl, especially me.

Now let me give you a little background info. The Cobras were always trying to make my life as miserable as possible. I didn't know why, but they were just always like that from the beginning. When I first moved here, they took all of my crayons and flushed them down the toilet. So ever since then, they've been making life more and more miserable by the minute.

"Ace! Let go of me you slimy bastard! I said let go!" I screamed while being dragged.

I looked at Gordie for some help, but he was getting tormented by Eyeball.

I was still struggling with Ace while shoved me through the doorway and into the kitchen, followed by shoving me into one of the kitchen table's chairs.

All the rest of the Cobras followed in soon after that. Eyeball was holding Gordie and shoved him into a chair also.

I was hoping to god that Ace would ask Vince for a beer and forget about the 'giving me a shiner' thing. Whenever Ace asked for a beer, he would let me go. Yeah, don't ask. It didn't make any sense to me either.

"Now don't you feel a whole lot better about this? Now we can sit and talk, Pink." Ace said, smug.

"Ace, I really, really hate you. And no, I don't feel better about anything. In fact, I feel worse."

"Well that's too bad. Hey Vince, got any beers?" He asked my brother, who immediately grabbed all the beers out of the fridge and put them on the table.

I was secretly cheering victory cheers in my head because Ace asked for the beer. So me and Gordie were safe, for now.

Ace cracked open his beer, "Get the hell out of here!" He yelled at me and Gordie.

And that was what routinely happened every day. I run into Ace or one of the Cobras, and I, for no reason at all, get tormented and then yelled at. It was just all so grand.

I then gave Ace the meanest glare I could possibly pull off, and then I flipped him off while storming towards the front door.

Gordie and I were both furious, we tried to calm down though, focusing on what we were gonna do at the tree house. It had already felt like a long day, and to think that it was only ten in the morning.
