Drake's Nightmare Chapter 5: Hangin' With Allison Part 2
Allison and all of her friends spent at least five minutes fighting before they finally took the field. I wasn't on Allison's team, and I knew that it was on purpose. I didn't really want to have to tell Adam tonight that Allison and I couldn't get along. I wanted to get along with her. I really did. I was trying to get along with her, but she wasn't trying at all. So this was getting no where.
Finally, they let me hit. Mostly because everyone else was on base and they had no other people.
I hit the ball over the wall at the end of the street. Oops.
Allison stared at me. "Wh… what? How? Wh… But," she mumbled.
"Okay, give me a ball," she said. One of her friend gave her another ball. I really didn't see what the big deal was.
Allison pitched the ball to me. I hit it past the fire hydrant. She shrugged. "All right! Lets play some ball!" She exclaimed. Wow. Allison was kind of freaking me out right now. Oh well. She was still a fun and beautiful girl.
Maybe we both have something in common. Something that we could do together. But I didn't really want our relationship to be based off of baseball. Yeah, we could do that sometimes, but I would still like to spend time with her and have conversations that didn't involve her screaming at me.

After playing for a while later Allison and I went inside.
"Whataya want to do?" she asked me, plopping down on the couch next to me. Way closer than she would have a couple of days ago.
"Whatever," I replied. I was so happy that Allison and I were finally getting along. We were actually able to have a conversation without yelling at each other. It was… nice, actually. She was funny, beautiful, smart, talented… I really didn't see how she didn't have every guy in school falling all over her.
She hooked up the video game, when she realized that she was farther in the game than she was a couple of days ago. Yeah. That's my fault. I kind of played it the other night. I was bored, so I it in.
She figured it out, so she turned to me. "I'm innocent! I swear!" I said, laughing. She started to laugh with me and tossed me a controller.
"I'm going to kick your but," she said.
"You wish!" I replied.
