"No, we shouldn't," Andrew stated frowning. Matt walked towards Steve and looked in the hole as well.
"We should probably get home," Matt suggested, already starting to walked back through the woods. Scarlet hurried to keep up finding it even wierder in the day. Steve walked after the two quickly catching up. Andrew looked into the hole one last time before turning and slowly making his way up the hill, kicking dirt as he remembered that his camera was still down there.
A few days later Scarlet picked up her phone, keeping her eyes on the tv. "Hello?" She asked into the phone, not really paying attention. "Hey Scar, I'm going to Matt's you coming?" She heard Steve say into the phone. Scarlet nodded, but then realised he couldn't see her.
"Sure," She replied, sitting up from her laying down position. "Awesome- I'll be there in five minutes. Actually be ready this time," Steve joked, laughing. Scarlet let out sarcastic laughter.
"I'll be ready," She said, already pulling on her shoes.
As said Steve pulled up outside Scarlet's house exactly five minutes later. Scarlet smiled as she got into the all too familliar car. "Sup?" She said, putting her seatbelt on.
"Has anything weird happened with you?" Steve asked, driving towards Matt's house.
"Yeah- this morning I woke up and my alarm clock was floating, then when I went in the bathroom, my tooth brush was spinning around in mid air," Scarlet stated running a hand through her dark hair. "What about you?" She asked glancing at the boy to her left.
"Ermm, just random stuff moving around," Steve said, glancing at his best friend. "Didn't you wear that shirt a few weeks ago?" Steve asked smirking, knowing it annoyed her. "Maybe," Scarlet mumbled.
Steve knocked on the door and a few seconds later Matt opened it, smiling. "Hey, Andrew's out back," He said, leading them to the back yard.
"Andrew's here?" Scarlet asked, Matt nodded smirking at her.
"You didn't say he'd be here," Scarlet said quietly to Steve. "Why does it matter?" he replied, looking down at the bright eyed girl. "It doesn't," She mumbled, walking into the back garden.
Scarlet sat down next to Andrew. "Hey," She said, and he smiled in acknowledgement but didn't say anything back. "Okay Steve, move to your left, and Matt stand infront of him," Andrew instructed turning his new camera on. Steve and Matt moved into position and Scarlet crossed her arms as she watched Steve hit Matt in the face with the ball; it was pretty cool as he threw it more to his right, yet it still hit him in the face. Andrew and Scarlet laughed as Matt walked away from Steve. "Oh god," Scar mumbled, leaning on Andrew; he stiffened (XD), and she quickly moved away, clearing her throat.
Matt stood infront of Steve. "Under hand," Steve told Matt.
"It is underhand," Matt reassured, bouncing the ball of the floor and hitting Steve in the face. Scarlet and Andrew laughed.
"Again?" Matt asked, and Steve nodded, smiling. Matt threw the ball. It curved and hit Steve right in the side of the face.
Steve fell to the ground as Matt ran around the garden laughing. Andrew stood up handing Scarlet his camera. "Are you sure?" she asked, worried she'd drop it, but Andrew nodded, standing infront of Matt.
"Okay, I'm ready," Andrew stated. Matt nodded, throwing the ball at Andrew. It stopped just before hitting his face. Scarlet smiled. "Oh, dude, wow," Scarlet said, standing up along with Steven and walking over to Andrew, who pointed at the ball.
"Dude you're bleeding," Steve said; Andrew touched his nose but smiled.
"Your turn, Scar," Steve said smiling. Scarlet sighed, handing Andrew his camera back, and she stood where Andrew had been standing. Steve stood infront of her.
"Good luck," Andrew said, Scarlet smiled keeping her eyes on Steve, who threw the ball. Scarlet stopped the ball, she smiled. The ball flew back towards Steve, flying past his head and hitting the garden fence. "Oh my god," Matt said, and Scarlet laughed, shaking her head, wiping the blood that had started to drip from her nose.
The four teens walked up to Matt's room, deciding to practice their powers some more. Andrew set his camera down next to him as he sat cross legged on the floor, Scarlet sat on the other side of the camera, next to Matt who was next to Steve. Matt started to play with a couple of lego blocks. "Matt you have to pretend to squeeze them together with your hands," Andrew told him, as music played in the background. Scarlet pulled her sleeves over her hands and started to nibble her sleeve. Andrew watched her from the corner of his eye and Steve nudged him, smiling.
"I can't do it, dude!" Matt said, dropping the pieces of lego. "You do it," He told Andrew, who accepted the challenge.
Scarlet laughed and smiled as Andrew built a tower of lego. "Dude, I hate you," Matt said jokingly. Scarlet shook her head, pulling her legs underneath her body.
"I'm impressed, man," Steve said, as Andrew finished the tower. Scarlet sneezed causing the tower of lego to fall apart.
She smiled as she moved her hands. The three boys stared at her. Andrew was laughing, and smiling, Steve was shaking his head in amusment and Matt just watched as his cousin stared at the girl. "I'm really sorry," Scarlet said, looking at Andrew who shrugged.
Steve held up his phone showing us the message he had from the girl he had been on a few dates with. "I'm legitamitly scared- I have an election..." Steve trailed off.
"Dude, why are you asking us for girl advice?" Matt asked, holding the camera and him and Scarlet laughed. "Because we're his mistress," Andrew joked smiling
In the car- Scarlet's POV
"So you think it's radiation?" Andrew asked from his space next to me in the back of Steve's car.
"Radiation from what exactly?" I asked, running a hand through my hair,
"It's the government," Matt announced,
"What?" Steve asked, equally as confused as I was. I shook my head, my hair falling into my face again.
"I'm feeling pretty splunked out actually," Andrew said. "Andrew, relax," I said, placing my hand on his arm but quickly moving it away and looking out the window
"It's so weird- it looks different in the day," Matt said as we walked past the barn "Good; no more wannabe rockstars or glowsticks," I replied following behind him and Steve, Andrew following behind me with his camera. Andrew laughed at my comment. I stumbled over a log, Steve laughed and carried on walking. I shoved my hands in my jeans pocket and walked after Steve.
"I don't care I'm not going in that hole again," Andrew said, Steve turned around, scaring Andrew. I rolled my eyes, shoving Steve lightly.
"Does he always do that?" Andrew asked me quietly, I shrugged walking along side him.
"Yeah, but he cares really," I told Andrew, who pointed his camera at me, I smiled but looked down.
"Looks like it's sunk in," Matt said as I stood behind him. Andrew pointed his camera at the hole.
"There goes your old camera," I said to Andrew, he gave a small smile "No shit," He mumbled and we walked down the hill towards the now closed up hole.
"I can't believe we made it out of there alive," Andrew said. I stood next to the hole kicking dirt into it.
"That explains that," Steve said, shrugging. "That explains what exactly?" I asked, looking over to him.
"Hey you kids can't be here- grounds unstable!" A police officer shouted down to us,
"Okay we're going- vote for Steve!" Steve replied laughing, I smiled, walking along side him. "Maybe I won't even vote for you," I said, and Steve looked at me, shocked, whilst Matt and Andrew laughed.
"Don't say that," Steve said, smiling down at me.
We got back in the car; I was in the back since Andrew was in the front, but I didn't mind since I was pretty tired.
I leant my head on the window as Steve and Andrew talked.
"So what's the deal with your dad?" Steve asked. Andrew sighed, but started to explain about his dad. "He drinks a lot, I know that much," Andrew mumbled, I leaned up, knowing there was more to it then that. We pulled up outside Andrew's house. "Bye guys," He said, giving a small wave. I smiled and waved to him as we both shouted 'Bye' to him.
"So you and Andrew," Steve said as I looked towards him. "What about Andrew and I?" I asked, subtly correcting his grammer mistake, as he turned down our road.
"You just seem close," He stated pulling up outside his house.
"He's a nice guy. I'll see you tomorrow," I said, getting out the car and walking the several steps to my house.
