Just One Kiss
Chapter 2
The young girl sniffled as she ran from the rain. It was hard to escape as it just kept falling all around her. There was only one place she could think of; the jungle gym.
Her small legs almost caved as she ran all the way up the hill. It was a good thing she had done it when she had because the rain was now getting heavier, making the grassy hill slippery and muddy. The little girl could have easily fallen and injured herself greatly, but she didn't. She safely made it to the top of the hill.
She had seen the park from her house. It was sat proudly on top of the hill, and it had been the first thing she had wanted to go and see as soon as she had seen it form her new bedroom window.
So, the young girl skidded on the wood chippings under the colorful, metal bars of the jungle gym. She smiled at her success. In this new town the bars weren't low enough for her to hit her head on, which made her smile the most.
"Who are you?" Her success was short lived.
The young girl gasped, turning around to see a young boy. He had shaggy black hair and icy blue eyes that stared her up and down. His clothes were muddy, most probably from being out in the mud the rain was causing, himself.
"Who are you?" The little girl asked back, repeating what Duncan had said.
"I asked you first!"
"I asked you second!"
The two stared at each other. The little girl's dark green eyes bore into the little boys icy blue ones. They were in a standoff to determine who was right and who was wrong, but neither seemed to be in a hurry to back down from the other.
But, ever so slowly, both of their eyes softened up, and so did the scowls on both of their faces. Their frowns started to curve into smiles and they both smiled at each other directly.
"Hi, I'm Duncan."
"I'm Gwen."
Gwen smiled brighter than before. She sat down on the floor opposite Duncan, neither taking their eyes off the other.
"How old are you?" Duncan asked, eyeing Gwen up and down again.
Her black hair was soaking wet, drenched from the rain. It was quite long, tied back with a pink ribbon, reaching down to her butt. She was wearing a denim overall, only it ended in a skirt instead of shirts. Underneath she was wearing a baby pink t-shirt with a few undone buttons in the front. They were drenched too. Her pink sandals were also wrecked from the rain.
"I'm almost eight." Gwen announced proudly. Duncan smiled.
"Me too!" He replied with enthusiasm.
They were both now smiling. Being sat in the shelter of the metal box underneath the jungle gym together felt right. They may have been seven, but they really did feel happy in each other's company.
"Gwen, do you have a best friend?" Duncan asked. Gwen shook her head. "Good, you can be MY best friend."
