 The Meeting

    Stacy''s Point of View


    I was walking to the library to return my book I was reading the last page and went to get some water suddenly I bumped into this guy and fell onto the ground and my book fell into the mud. Any other white boy would''ve left me alone to let me pick up my book and clean myself up. Instead he picked up my book and said,"I''m sorry! Are you okay?" He said with his hand out he looked kinda nice so I held his hand and got up and said,"I''m okay thank you" I wanted to leave but I couldn''t...He was still holding my hand and I didn''t want him to let go....I came back to my senses and said,"Um well see you around...Maybe"  And continued to go to the library.If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent.

 "Nice to see you again"

    I was taking a walk in the streets I sat down on the bench that was closest to me suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder a white police officer said,"Hey kid go sit on the other bench!" I said,"Why?" He looked at me like I was a fool and pointed at the white''s only sign I sighed and walked over to the other bench then he walked away. I saw the nice boy who I bumped into earlier I took a quick glance at him and he looked back he said,"Hi." I said,"Hi how are you?" "Fine." He said. He came over to the bench I was sitting at. I was confused I whispered quietly so the officer couldn''t hear us. I said,"You''re not supposed to be on this bench." He said,"I know but I don''t care I''d rather sit with you." I said,"I''d rather sit here too." And he said,"By the way what''s your name? Mine is Eric Prowell" I said,"Mine is Stacy Janes." I noticed he was sitting really close to me but I didn''t mind. A little voice inside me told me this was wrong but....It felt so right. He looked at his watch and said,"Uh I gotta go back to my house for dinner nice to see you again.....Stacy." I waved and said,"Nice to see you again Eric." I decided that I better get home too I didn''t want mom and dad to get worried about me. I saw my friend Josey. She had long dark brown hair and brown eyes. She said,"Hi Stacy! How you doing?" "Fine!" I said. I looked down at my own watch it was 6:02 I was supposed to help mama with dinner soon so I said,"I gotta go help my mom with dinner see you at school Josey!" "See you later Stacy!" I walked home thinking about Eric all the way home. And weirdly I still wanted to be with him.If you come across this story on Amazon, it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it.

 Secrets

    Afterschool I couldn''t wait to see Eric we had been meeting each other in secret. Because we couldn''t tell anybody that we''ve been seeing each other. I was walking home and I found him and said,"Hi Eric!" He said,"Hey Stacy." He said with a smile. We looked around to see if anybody was there but then Eric said,"I know a perfect place we can hang out." He grabbed my arm and we ran to some woods I said,"Do you know the way to get out?" He said,"Of course just trust me okay?" I said,"Okay sure..." When we were done I was glad I listened to him. It was beautiful. There was even a bench there Eric said,"You like it?" I looked him in the eye and said,"I love it.." I sat down on the bench and he sat next to me. He said,"What do you want to talk about?" I said,"Well how long do you think we''ll have to do this?" He looked down put his arm around me and said,"I wish I knew Stacy wish I knew..." I put my head on his shoulder and tried my hardest not to cry. I didn''t want to just meet in secret I wanted us to be in the public not to show off but....Just so we didn''t have to worry about being mocked or shamed just because he''s white and I''m black and we are seeing each other. But suddenly I said,"Eric...I know it isn''t really normal but...." I didn''t know what to say so I just kissed him on the cheek. He said,"I wanted to ask you that but I didn''t know how." I then remembered I was having a sleepover with Josey tonight. I said,"Eric my friend Josey is coming over to my house soon I gotta go." But before I stood up I kissed him on the cheek one more time. And went out of the woods. While I was walking home I saw Josey and she said,"Hi! Where have you been?" I was a bit nervous so I just said,"Just walking around..." She said well let''s just get to your house race ya!" And we went running.This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

 The Sleepover

    Stacy''s Point Of View


    I was walking home quickly before Josey could see me so I could explain to Eric that I couldn''t hang out with him again until Monday. I went to the woods where I hoped Eric was. I saw that he was but I turned around and said,"Eric I won''t be able to hang out with you until Monday because my friend Josey is going to have a sleepover and-" He stroked my hair which made me stop talking and said,"It''s okay I''ll give you my number and call you and if you want you can give me your number." We exchanged numbers we walked out of the woods I was walking home and Josey said,"Hey!" "Hi Josey!" I said. When we got to my house we didn''t know what to do so I said,"Hmm why don''t we do each other''s hair?" I put her hair into a fish braid and she put my hair into a French braid. She said,"Okay now let''s talk about guys!" I rolled my eyes and said,"You are so boy crazy!" "Yup!" She said with a smirk. "Well isn''t Jonathan Bryers cute?" I said,"He''s okay." No other guy was better looking than Eric in my book. "Well he doesn''t have a girlfriend and I''ve seen the way he looks at you-" Before she could say anymore I hit her with my pillow she said,"Oh! You''re asking for it!" And picked up a pillow and hit me. We had a pillow fight and my mom came in and asked if we wanted to help with supper we said,"Yes!" We washed our hands came into the kitchen we were making chicken and creamed soup. After we were done my dad said,"This was delicous ladies!" "Thank you." We all said at the same time. Secretly I called Eric and talked to him before I went to bed. And all I could do is hope that nobody knew.If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

 Its Getting Hard

    I was walking to my house with Josey and we saw Eric and another boy walking down with him. We knew we had to just pretend we didn''t know each other. Then his friend picked up a pebble and threw it at us. It hit Josey in the eye so she picked it up and threw it right back at him and it hit him in the nose. Me and Eric said at the same time,"Josey!" "Derren!" I said,"Josey! You know we can get in trouble for that right?!" She said,"I wasn''t the one who threw the pebble first!" I heard Eric say,"What was that for?!" He said,"Why do you care it''s just some black girls." I said,"Josey let''s just go.." She rolled her eyes at Derren and said,"Fine." Why was Eric friends with someone like that I thought. When Josey and my mom were busy doing something I called Eric to ask him,"Why are you friends with someone like him?" He said,"He''s not my friend we have to do a project together." I said,"Oh okay. Thanks for telling me." I suddenly heard my mom coming near me I said,"Gotta go bye!"  She said,"What were you doing with the phone honey?" I panicked and said,"I was trying to see if it would work." I said hoping she would believe me. She looked confused and said,"Okay..." I sighed in relief and decided I really needed to be more careful.The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

 Caught by Josey!

    I was walking down the street with Eric afterschool when nobody else was around and then I saw Josey walking in front of us I whispered,"Eric! My friend is over there I gotta run!" And run I did. I ran quick and fast behind a tree. Josey came to me said,"I saw you walking with that boy." I said knowing there was no use in trying to hide it," "Will you promise you won''t tell ANYONE." She said,"Of course even if it is weird." She said walking away I couldn''t understand her. I couldn''t understand anyone.
