Hey-lo guys Beebopkat here with a story for my friends! If ya got any OCs you'd like to see in here than PM me and I might add them in!
The bus jerked to a stop, I picked up my gray backpack and walked out the bus doors. I retreated to the shade underneath a small, thin tree and watched as other kids departed the yellow vehicle. Eighth, eighth, freshman, seventh, eighth, freshmen, freshmen. Oh, there they are! I smiled as the two girls approached me.
"Hey Chloe, ready for the weekly Friday ritual?" Harley asked.
"Ritual? So Friday is a ritual now?" I laughed at the tall brown haired girl.
Harley shrugged and with that we followed Jayden into the bait shop. Every Friday after school the girls and I come here to Bobs Live Bait Shop and get a few things. Jayden normally buys herself an energy drink or a popsicle, Harley gets candy bars while I buy a pickled food of some sort and a container of live worms. I don't go fishing but I buy them every Friday. Jay ended up getting a lemonade flavored Rock Star drink; Harley got a few candy bars and a slushy while I bought myself a pickled egg and a container of worms. We left Bobs Live Bait Shop and headed across the street to the library. At the library is this stunning garden with so many beautiful flowers. Lilies, daffodils, chrysanthemums, roses and even morning glories reside there in the garden.
"Hi Chloe, those worms?" A boy sitting on the library stairs asked.
I nodded and handed him the little white container. Rooster is the librarian's son, he goes to school with Jayden, Harley and I. When he heard that I needed a safe place to free worms he offered his garden at the library. It's a pretty good idea and we both gain from it, I have a place to free worms where nobody will dig for them and the worms nourish the soil in Rooster's garden. Rooster kneeled down in the garden and opened the prison in which the worms were being kept captive, he carefully placed them down on the ground one by one and I grinned.
"Be free! Be free my beautiful beings of dirt. Let yourselves become one with the earth. Be free forever more!" I chanted manically. Harley happily joined in with me and even Rooster chanted along. Jayden was trying to make it seem as if she didn't know us. I love being able to do this, to free the worms. It sounds stupid and probably crazy but it makes me feel good and important, like I can do something that matters. Plus those worms are kept in small containers while they wait for certain death and I want to give them a fair chance at survival. If people want live bait then they should go dig for it themselves with their own hands and shovels. Once the last worm had burrowed its way into the safety of the soil we said bye to Rooster and walked in the direction of Jayden's house.
This weekend Harley and I are sleeping over at Jay's house, normally when we all want to get together we go over to Jay's. Jayden's house has the most privacy plus if her family begins to get on our nerves we can just go camping on the trail. The trail is surrounded by woods and right behind her house, when we camp their all we have to do is bring a backup of what we'll be using up there. We don't camp in a tent; we sleep in the tree house that Jay's dad built! It's pretty cool, she has a couch up there, a battery powered radio, flashlights; it's sort of like a miniature house but it's up in the trees!
We walked down the street chatting casually about school and what we could do when we got to Jay's house. We were in the middle of debating what was Justin Beiber before Beiber was born when Jayden was suddenly pushed down. Standing on Jay was a huge panting black and white Siberian husky, he barked once in a happy playful sounding manner.
"Hey there boy." Jayden managed with the dog's giant paws pinning her down.
"Are you okay Jay?" Harley asked.
"Yeah I'm fine, I'm just resting here with a dog, you know on the sidewalk. Everybody does it these days, it's sooo in." Jay replied sarcastically.
As the dog licked Jay's face with its huge red tongue I patted its soft fur. I was searching it for a collar or some type of means of identification but I didn't find anything. Whose dog was this, did he even have an owner, and if so why was he out here all alone? What if he has no home? We can't just leave him here then, the dog catcher will find him and then he'll be taken to the pound. I shuttered at the thought of such a joyful seeming dog in that cold metallic place. I hate the pound especially since they do kill the dogs there; why can't this town have a no kill dog pound?
The husky yipped happily, leaped off of Jay and abruptly zoomed down the sidewalk. I stared for a moment as the dog ran away and then helped Jay up. I hoped that dog would be okay, I also really hope his owners found him. A dog that friendly and clean had to be a pet, not a stray.
"Smile!" An angry voice yelled. "Get back here!"
The girls and I whipped around to see a tall boy in a white sweatshirt dashing towards us. He did not look happy, his face was red and he was sweating and cursing under his breath.
"Hey…. have you seen a….. dog pass by here?" He panted.
"Uh yeah he just ran down the street." Harley pointed in the direction the husky had run.
He cursed under his breath and took off down the sidewalk yelling and shouting. We walked a bit further down the road before Harley burst into laughter.
"Oh, oh my god, did you see that guys face!" She giggled.
"And he was yelling so loudly! What makes it even better is…is I think I heard some British in that accent" Jay laughed along.
"I know right? Smile, Smile get back here!" Harley yelled in an over dramatic British accent.
I smiled to myself as the girls were in hysterics about the boy's slight accent; Harley and Jayden seem to have this thing for British and Australian accents. I remember this girl we used to know in sixth grade named Skylar, she had moved from Australia here to America. Sky and I were great friends, we had been able to easily bond over coming from different countries and having to leave friends and family behind. Well when Skylar had first talked to Harley and Jayden they had ended up laughing, poor Sky she had looked so confused. After I had explained to her that Jay and Harley like accents she was okay with them and we were all best friends. It sucks that she was only staying in America for that year though; she had told us that she was only here because her Father is a marine biologist and had gotten a job offer up here in Maine to study the differences from seals coast to coast.
"Hello earth to Chloe." A hand waved in front of me.
I looked up into Harley's dark brown eyes and at her hand in front of my face. Damn it! I must have zoned out; I hate it when I do that!
"What we're you thinking about?" Jay poked my shoulder.
I messed around with her curly hair and told her nothing which of course made her even more curious. I smiled even wider; this would be a good weekend for the three of us to hang out together.
So this was originally a cool idea my friends gave me when we were walking home from school and I've turned it into a story for them. Thanks for being awesome dudes!
Remember PM me an Oc and I'll probably use it, they can be Creepypasta OC's or Humans OC's and yes I will give you credit for your own original characters.
