another starter for @dungecnmaster just because

Steve scuffed his shoes on the mound, wishing for the life of him he possessed the same energy he did when he first pulled this off. His wrist twisted, fingers tightening in a VICE-LIKE grip around the baseball bat at his disposal. It revolved in a reliable rhythm. What the hell had he been thinking then? Nothing really, nothing at all except that he had to do something, and when the wooden baseball bat connected with the monster the first time it resulted in a bone deep ache that echoed in his knuckles. He hadn’t felt it at the time because he was running on ADRENALINE. Steve had been a risk taker armed with the skills and courage that lead him to success. Winding up, he reared back and let the bat fly forward in another demonstrative swing. No matter how he turned his hand, it stayed within his grip.

He stood there as seconds ticked by, and he gathered the nonchalant energy to address Mike, ❛ I used to play Little League. So I totally KNOW what I’m doing here.

   ❝ Were you hitting the other players, or the ball? ❞

Mike had absolutely no room to speak as if he knew what a good swing was, or whether he would’ve hit the ball or not—-he’s certainly not the athletic type, if that wasn’t obvious enough—-but something about the situation made the middle schooler want to ease the uncomfortable awkwardness ( that was probably all in his head ) still lingering in the air. He isn’t sure what it is about Steve that puts him so on edge, but he can only assume it has something to do with the fact that it seems like he’s trying to bond with him, and he’s sure it’s only because he’s dating Nancy.

Wandering eyes glaze over their surroundings, noting how empty this place is and the fact that it’s gotta be damn near a hundred degrees outside—-he suddenly can’t recall why he agreed to this in the first place.


     ❝ Why are we here, anyway? ❞

THOUGH NOTHING WILL KEEP US TOGETHER

A FRIEND is someone you'd do anything for. you lend them your cool stuff, like comic books and trading cards.

and, they never break a promise.
