"You did what," my mother yelled as I sat on the couch. I looked at my mother, then my father. My aunt and uncle sat on the couch across from me.
"They where talking smack about Chris and Gordie," I explained again.
"So that doesn't mean you should hit the poor girl," my mother said.
"Poor girl, she is from The View, she isn't poor, she is a rich snob," I yelled.
"They don't know us mom, they don't know Chris, he has changed, and Gordie." I explained.
"Doesn't mean you should fight," my father yelled.
"And now you get a three day vacation," my mother said. Then the door busted open and Tyler, Gina, Mel and the four boys entered the house.
"Hey Ali heard what happened." Vern laughed. "Did you win?"
"Of course,"
"Venn go outside," Vern's mom yelled. The house suddenly got quiet as everyone left.
"Can I go now," I asked.
"Yes…"
I walked outside and found Chris and Mel talking to each other. They where cute together and I didn't know why Mel found Ace hot. He was bad and he was going to get her in trouble. I walked past Gordie and he stared at me.
"Hey Ali can we talk," he asked walking up to me.
'No,"
"Are you still mad about that night?"
"You have to trust me Gordie." I said looking at him.
"Why did you do it,' he asked me.
'What," I asked not sure what he meant.
"Today, the fight" he said. I looked at him not sure what to say. Did I have feelings for Gordie…well I always did, but they had gone away.
"I don't know Gordie, anyone would have done it." I said.
"No they wouldn't, they would just laughed along with them." Gordie said. "Come on Ali tell me why." I couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Fine you want to know…it is because I like you," I yelled, heads turned to look at me when I yelled it. I looked at Gordie shocked. Had I really said that out loud? Then I ran off, not wanting to hear what he said next.
"Ali…" I heard Tyler yell, but it was two late, I was to far away to turn back.
I ran for awhile, letting everything lose. Then someone blocked my way. I ran into them, sending the person and me to the hard ground.
"I am sorry Ali," I heard Emma say. I looked at the girl then got up.
"That's ok," I said brushing myself off. I kept walking hoping she wouldn't follow me.
"Hey…what's wrong," Emma asked following me.
"Why are you following me," I asked.
"I don't know, bored I guess," she laughed. I stopped to look at her then kept walking.
"Well go find someone else to annoy," I yelled. I kept walking, stepping over the snow that still covered Castle Rock. Then I felt a snow ball hit me in the back. I didn't turn around but I knew who it was.
"If I where you Emma…I would run," I warned her. I picked up some snow then turned around. Emma looked at me, then ran away laughing.
"Yea you better run Emma," I yelled running after you. "I beat up those girls for pissing me off…I will do the same for you." I saw someone run behind a tree and knew right away it was Emma. I walked over to it but no one was there.
"Emma, stop being a baby, come out,' I laughed.
"Snow ball fight," someone yelled. I turned around to see Teddy, Emma, Mel, Chris and Gordie.
"Go," Mel yelled and we all ran off. I ran behind a tree to hide from Mel, but she found me anyway. She threw a snowball, but she didn't run away.
"Ali why did you leave," Mel asked.
"Seemed like a good thing to do at the moment. Didn't really want to stick around to hear what Gordie had to say anyways." I said.
"Well for your information Gordie likes you," Mel said. I didn't smile, or even look happy.
"It's not that Mel," I said, then threw a snowball at her. I ran off trying to get away from her before she asked more questions. Then someone came up behind me and knocked me over. Gordie jumped on top me pinning me to the ground.
'Let me go," I said.
"No sorry," he laughed. "This is the only way I can talk to you without you running away."
"This isn't funny Gordie," I said, and then I started to remember.
"Come on all we want to do is have some fun," the boy laughed. He locked the door behind him and cornered me into the wall.
"No, just let me go," I cried but it was no use. He pushed me against the wall and there was no way I was getting out.
My eyes filled with fear and Gordie saw it to.
"Shit Ali," He said getting of off me, he pulled me up and I just looked at him. "I am sorry. I forgot."
"Just stay away from me…"
