Hello guys, I'm Lemony and this is a story about the Boy/Girl Battle. So anyways, this is the story:

The Bensons decided to move back to Georgia and said that the Malloy's could buy their house in Buckman. It's been six years and things have changed. The Jake and Josh are the "kings" of the school and are in twelfth grade. Wally is class president and the smartest kid in the tenth grade. Peter is now in eighth grade and STILL enjoys baked treats. Eddie is in twelfth grade and the first ever girl in Ohio to get on the baseball team and now when she moves back to Buckman, she's not allowed to join. Beth is in eleventh grade and is being teased for reading too much. And Caroline is in tenth grade and she is going against their NEW archenemy, Jennifer Trine for the lead role in the school play. Now that the Malloy's and Hatfords are together again the pranking turns into something else.

Ages:

Jake Hatford: 17

Josh Hatford: 17

Eddie Malloy: 17

Beth Malloy: 16

Wally Hatford: 15

Caroline Malloy: 14

Peter Hatford: 13

P.S: This chapter starts a couple of days before the Malloy's had to leave.

Eddie's POV

Me and Jake were sitting in front of his house talking about whatnot and who did what and of course, sports. The sun was glinting off his blond hair making it even blonder. I smiled, thinking about how I had a crush on him since we first moved here and then when I saw Steve Benson, I lost my crush on him (this is not about Eddie and Steve) and then one day, we secretly started dating. But, I saw him on his face book profile, and he was kissing another girl when I decided I was done. Ever since then I don't trust boys.

"Will you miss me?" asked Jake suddenly.

"That depends, will you miss me?" I replied smirking.

"I might, if you miss me," he said, smiling.

I shook my head and grinned, right as he quickly kissed me on the cheek and got up and left.

WAIT WHAT! Why do I feel happy? Jake Hatford, my archenemy, kissed me on the cheek! Huh! Yeah, I'll miss him.

Josh's POV

"Well, this is it!" I said to Beth and she smiled at me.

The day before the Malloy's had to leave, and I was going to miss her. I still wish we hadn't broken up, even though it wasn't official.

"I'll miss you," I said, and then realized how weird that sounded.

"I know, I'll miss you too!" she said, and then stepped up and hugged me.

It was a friendly hug, even though I wished it was more.

Then she stepped back and smiled. I smiled. And then I grinned.

"Remember me will ya?" she asked, walking away.

"Of course," I replied, a huge dorky grin spreading across my face.

Caroline POV

Me and Wally sat side by side, only because there was no one else to sit next to.

"Well now that I am not here, I guess the teacher will have to settle with you," I said grinning.

"Wow Caroline, that must be the nicest thing you have ever said to me," Wally said, gently poking me in the side.

I giggle because I was super ticklish.

Wally must have noticed because he tackled me and started tickling me, hard.

I shrieked with laughter and gasped, "STOP!"

He didn't stop. And I couldn't push him off either because he was bigger than me.

He finally stopped, and I was sweaty and my face was pink.

"I've always wanted to do that," he said, standing me up and giving me a hand to help me up.

I took it and I meant to let go, but neither of us did.

"Want to go to the bookstore?" he asked.

"Sure," I answered.

And we held hands the entire way.

And that's that. Please review. I will try and update every week at least once. I know the chapter is really short, but they will get longer. Thanks!
