PEOPLE! I ONLY GOT 1 REVIEW FOR THE LAST CHAPTER! but seriously, review. enjoy this chapter!

annabelle's POV

after me and amanda said goodbye to everyone, we ran towards the clearing. the run was nice, the drizzly rain felt soothing on my neck.

"alright, i brought some balls, and a bat." amanda said, pulling the things out of her backpack. i nodded and she handed me the bat.

"let's see what you can do." i said, standing at home plate with the bat. she nodded, and threw me the ball. it went too low, and nearly hit me in the ankles.

"sorry!" she exclaimed. i shrugged and came over to her.

"i see, your throwing is too low. you just have to hold your arms up a little, like this," i held her elbows up higher. she nodded.

"now, let's try this again." i said, running back to my previous position. she pitched me the ball, and i hit it straight into the forest. she grinned triumphantly. then my cellphone rang.

"hello?" i asked, confused. mom knew where i was.

"hey, annabelle, it's amy. after you guys left, everyone wanted to play baseball, so we're coming over there, okay?" my sister asked. i was suddenly excited.

"sure! i'm in the mood for some fun, anyways!" i practically yelled. amy laughed.

"okay, well, we'll be there in a second, sis. bye!" and she hung up. me and amanda made small talk for a few minutes until everyone arrived. i got up and went straight up to julie and growled at her. she patted my shoulder.

"nice to see you too, sis." she said. i thought about how dissapointed mom would be if i killed julie, so i just glared at her and grabbed the bat. austin picked up the ball and stepped up to the pitcher's mound.

i nodded at him and he pitched the ball full-speed. even though austin loved a great challenge, he still was inferior to my baseball skills. i swung at even fuller-strength, and the ball soared into the woods.

arianna saw it, and dashed after it. she finally jumped, caught it straight out of the air, and threw it to rick on first base. but luckily, i slid on it just before rick caught it. he groaned in defeat and threw it back to austin.

casey, austin's twin brother, was up at home plate next. i chuckled softly, as did most everyone else. austin kicked everything up a notch when he was against his brother. he threw the ball with amazing agility to casey, who smacked it back over the treetops.

he smirked at austin and ran to first base. i was too busy running back to home plate to notice who stepped into the clearing next.

teehee cliff hanger! i suppose i'll just have to wait until i get 5 reviews (or more), until i post anymore! i'll just write up the chapters and leave them there, sad, in my documents folder on my laptop, waiting to be posted. SO REVIEW PEOPLE! thanks for reading!
