Jaywalking

I don't know why it's so illegal. I mean, it's only a matter of safety, right? So it should be your choice whether to jaywalk or not.

It's how I get to Maynard's. And Holly's. And pretty much everywhere else I go starts out with jaywalking.

Casey is trying to get me to break the habit, "Sammy, not all people are going to be as forgiving as these people are. I mean, it is kind of annoying when people jaywalk right in front of you." he was learning to drive, (he's 15 after all) and was working at it even harder now.

"Well, would you rather walk all the way down to the crosswalk, then all the way up the sidewalk, when you could just jaywalk?" I could tell I'd gotten him there; because before he learned to drive, he did it all the time. Instead of answering, he just sighed,

"Just don't do it in front of me." he muttered, but accepted the kiss I offered anyway.

Officer Borsch always tries to get me to break it, too. "Samantha, I know I shouldn't be saying anything, but you're going to get hurt jaywalking all the time like that." I roll my eyes and huff,

"You're just like Casey. I'll be fine. I've done it for years and I'm still alive!" I exclaim, holding my arms out for him to see. He just grunts and mutters about how stubborn I am.

Then, of course, there's Grams. She's always going on about how I shouldn't jaywalk. "Do you know how bad you could get hurt? Why, even in my day-" I cut her off, there was no way I wanted to get into that.

"I get it, Grams! But it's not like people are crazy psycho drivers, who are out to kill jaywalkers." She looked at me like, Yes, some people actually are.

I'm starting to wonder why I never listen to them.

I was walking down Broadway, and looked both ways before jaywalking across the street. Halfway across, a black SUV swerved out of no where and hit me, right on.

It hurt.

I'm starting to wonder why I never listen to them.

No more jaywalking for me.

Don't worry, she's not dead. Perfectly alive...just hurt. ;D

I don't know who came up with 'jaywalking,' it went around for awhile...and everyone agreed on it, so viola! Here it is!

Thanks for your reviews on my last chapter...a few things though...

iluvcammy: I always appreciate your guys's ideas, so spill 'em!

Steph: Mmkay...Let's just say this: My parents don't want me on here 'cause they think it's 'inappropriate' and that someone who reads my stuff is gonna hunt me down and shoot me. Which, really can't happen 'cause you guys know, like, nothing about me.

And thank you to everyone else who reviewed...and of course the two up top! ;D

Review?
