Sam threw his worn out baseball and watched it bounce back as it hit the brick wall in front of him. He sighed and sat down on the hard gravel playground. He was tired with playing catch by himself, it just wasn't as fun. He looked up towards the baby blue cloudless sky. The sun shone down into his eyes and made him squint, but he still kept looking. He loved the emptiness of the sky, how it could go on forever and how most of it is unexplored. He dreamed that one day he'd be able to explore it all, he loved space and the sky. He drifted into a daydream where, twenty years from now, he arrives back to Earth having been the first man to step foot on Mars. He was falling deeper into his daydream when he heard a voice. " Sammy, Sammy, Sammy Sammy" the voice cried out. Sam snapped back into the real world and looked to his right. He saw his best friend Blaine running over the playground towards him. He had his hair gelled back and was wearing his usual trademark polo shirts, today a red one which he matched with navy blue trousers, turned up above his ankles and some loafers. Blaine was the most fashion forward six year old Sam knew.
Sam jumped to his feet, ready for hurricane Blaine. He loved his best friend, but he was always so lively in a morning. Sam wondered what he ate for breakfast, well he thought he wondered, he kinda knew. Blaine reached Sam and flashed his big smile at his friend. "Sammy guess what?" Blaine asked Sam, his hazel eyes looking at him intently. "Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" Sam dragged his words along. "Your Mom's baked us some more of her tasteful Cookies again?" Blaine laughed that adorable laugh that never failed to make Sam smile. "No silly, although they were yummy for Blainey's tummy. My Mom asked me if I wanted a sleepover this weekend as i've been good this week" Blaine bounced around on the spot, not being able to control his excitement. "Aww that's great" Sam smiled back in return. "Oh yeah and I was supposed to ask you if you wanted to come? I forgot that part haha." "I'd love to come Blaine" Sam lit up at the prospect of his first sleepover, his first sleepover with his best friend. He'd been invited to sleepovers before, by the popular kids, but they'd always forgotten about inviting Blaine. Sam didn't like that, so he always made up a lie about being busy and didn't go. This would be perfect though. Blaine was ecstatic. "Yay, Sammy we're going to have a brilliant time." He started to jump up and down on the spot a little more. Sam grabbed hold of him and steadied him with fear he may be the one about to take off into the sky.
The two boys continued talking more about their exciting plans for the weekend when the bell went for morning registration. Blaine looked at Sam and sighed, they both wanted to spend the whole day planning their sleepover. Sam and Blaine started walking to their class line. Both of the boys were itching to get to their morning break, so they could talk more about which flavour of Doritos to bring and whether they should watch Spiderman or Superman. Sam's line got called in first and his class trundled into the school. He looked back and smiled at Blaine, Blaine of course returning a smile back to Sam.
