Rains POV (continued)

We got to where the woods were, and walked along the edge.

We went past where I usually would stop and turn back, and stumbled upon a section that looked like an entrance.

"Guys we should go in." I said excitedly.

Andy and Ashley looked at me like I was crazy.

"No." they said in unison. "There is probably bugs and poison ivy." Finished Andy.

"If you guys won't come with me I'll just go by myself." I softly stated while walking in slowly.

"Wait for me Rain!" shouted Ashley.

A smile crept onto my face as soon as I heard those words.

I grabbed his hand and walked along with him until we heard Andy run in to catch up.

"You miss us?" I said jokingly.

"Nah. I just didn't want to look weird just standing there."

We were wandering around in there for at least 10 minutes until we came upon it.

A tall oak, probably really old, that had a little tree house in it.

I circled around until I came across a ladder and climbed up.

It was small, but still sturdy. There was a deck of cards, and 2 old mildew smelling pillows on the floor.

Everything was covered with dust, even this old antique chest in the corner.

I opened it to see a bunch of blankets, flashlights, and replacement batteries.

I looked at the blankets; they were thick quilts to be exact. They didn't smell bad and didn't have any tears in them.

They were in perfect condition. I really didn't want to go back home, and thought about just staying up here.

I heard whispers coming from down where Andy and Ashley were, but ignored it until I heard someone climbing up the ladder.

"Hey, what's taking you so….. Whoa this is pretty cool." Ashley whispered.

"Yea it is I kinda wants to just spend the night here. It's not like my mom will notice I'm gone." I whispered back.

"Wait. Why are we whispering." I said in a normal tone.

"I don't really know, but it would be cool to stay up here."

"You know if you stay with me Andy has to stay too." I told him.

"Yea… it could be like a fun hang out." Ashley calmly replied "but before we tell him I just need to do this again"

"Do what?" I questioned.

"This..." he said while leaning in to kiss me.

I leaned in too, and our lips met just like they did last time.

I got butterflies in the pit of my stomach. I pulled back with a little grin on my face.

I gave him a little peck on his lips then started to climb down.

Ashley followed shortly after, slightly tripping on one of the steps on the ladder.

I hopped down, skipping a few of the last steps and went over to Andy.

"Hey so we were gonna stay up here for tonight. There are blankets, a deck of cards, flashlights, and these 2 old nasty pillows. One of us could always run back to my place to get better ones off my bed, or we could just ball up the extra blankets to use instead." I quickly told him.

"Yea that would be cool. There's nothing to do on the bus so a night in a tree house in the woods would be better than sitting there." He said.

I started jumping up and down with joy just thinking about spending the night up there.

We could have so much fun. We headed out and back to my house to grab the pillows, and some other things so that we be entertained.

My mom almost noticed us, but was too drunk to really pay attention so we were all good.

We all climbed up and made everything really comfy. This is going to be a fun night.

Authors Note: sorry if this chapter is really boring and unappealing. I had writers block and was just trying to get something out. Review and give me ideas how to make this better. Please…
