    Grounder “Hey, short stuff!” “That’s short stop to you, Casey. You ready for this weekend?” “Yeh, about that, I, umm, may not be able to make it.” Casey squeezed up to his locker, and started to spin the combination on his lock. He didn’t look at Sam, their new backup shortstop. “Oh, dude, do not tell me that. This is the baseball team’s appreciation banquet. You’re one of our starters and a junior; you’ve got to show. What kind of example is that going to set for young and impressio

    Not Done Yet

    Like I've said before, "why" isn't the most helpful question most of the time, but trauma does things to people. What we would decide when we're healthy isn't always what we'd decide when we're not. Glad you liked it.

    If It Was Just Me

    Thanks for your comments. This was a tough chapter to write. As for why, most of the time, I've found that question (and the answers to it) doesn't really help solve anything. For somebody like Casey, "what" and "what now" are a lot more important. Thanks for reading, and for your comments.
  10. Thanks, Parker. I deliberately left Casey's sister as a shadow figure, a question mark. I appreciate the review.

    I'm kinda new to creative writing. Business writing taught me to express myself succinctly, so I really have to work hard to fill a page. It's good to read that I still got the idea across. Thanks for reading, and for leaving a review.

    Friends Mary asked Sam, “What’s up with James lately? He acts like he just lost his puppy or something.” They were walking to class and Sam was carrying her books. “Babe, I wish I knew for sure, but I think it’s got something to do with Casey.” He shifted the books to his other arm. “When I mentioned going to see him yesterday, James didn’t say a word. I know they’re friends – they say hi in the hallway, but it’s as if James doesn’t want to let Casey get any closer.” “Well, is there any
  18. Running Round in Circles James got the locker open on the third try, and changed out the books in his pack, so he could go home directly after gym. “Chem, algebra, Gatsby. God, Gatsby sucks… Aaaaaurgh!” James spun around, his fist doubled up and drawn back, ready to strike. Then he saw who it was. “Sam, what the fuck is your problem?! You know I’m ticklish.” Sam had walked up behind James and stuck his thumb in James’ ribs. Behind him and a little bit to the side was a pretty girl with red hai

    Thanks, Lisa. If you haven't already, I recommend reading chapters 7-10. There's new material in there, and sequence of chapters is different.
