Chassidy walked through a trail in the woods behind her house. She put her hands in her jean skirt's pockets. She looked around and enjoyed the sounds of the woods. She was walking barefoot along the smooth, dusty path. She felt her spahgetti strap slide down her shoulder and didn't bother to put it back up. She sighed softly as she continued along the way.
She loved her house. It was a huge 3-story mansion. It had an indoor and outdoor pool and quite a few other things, like a tennis court. She missed living in Montana and Hawaii but this place was pretty good. She wondered what school would be like and where she would fit in. She needed to get a new outfit for the first day. She didn't like the one that she had gotton yesterday or the day before that. She really needed some new clothes for the rest of the year. The ones she had now where going out of fashion or would in the next week. She smirked, it wasn't like she couldn't afford it or anything.
She reached the creek that ran through their property. She looked around to make sure that there was no one around. She then stripped off her clothes and stepped into the refreshing water. She sighed softly as she let the water relax her muscles. She went under and came back up, clear water droplets dripping down her face. She then heard a rustling in the tress and looked in that direction. She didn't see anything. She shrugged and went under the water again.

"What to do, what to do, what to do..."
Attempting to assuage his boredom, Seoras was walking randomly along the streets of town trying to think. He had some paper and a pen in his pocket in case he thought up anything interesting, but so far the paper remained blank and the pen unused. He soon found himself in the "upper-class" area, judging by the huge houses and lawns all around. He walked along a sidewalk, passing a tall wrought iron gate with thick bars set in thick, gray stone walls.
"Hmm...I wonder...what would the view be like from up there...?" he thought, pausing. He felt the rock barrier, noting the many cracks and potential hand and foot holds it would provide. Seoras reached up and, finding a solid grip, began to pull himself up, sticking to the wall like a gothic spider. When he finally reached the top, he was almost surprised to find it to be relatively flat and smooth, and a perfect thickness for walking comfortably. "Guess I'm lucky today," he mumbled, standing and looking around. Wow. Now that was a nice view...
Seoras started walking along the top of the wall, trying to step carefully while still looking at everything. Those rich people that lived behind the wall he was on had everything, didn't they? Figures, if they could afford a place like this. He glanced down at the swaying green below him. "They even have their own private forest...pff..." he muttered, awed by this apparent fact. He scanned the area below him, taking in the trees, the creek...and the girl? Oh crap!
He ducked, flattening himself on the top of the wall, partly screened by a tree that was poking above the top of the wall. He didn't want to be seen, that would mean trouble that he could do without. The boy waited a few minutes before lifting first his head, and then himself, from his prone position. No sign of the girl...fwew...
Seoras stood back up, looking out over the grounds to see if he could still see her, but she was nowhere in sight. So much the better. Might as well keep walking...Taking a final look at where the girl had been, he smiled, thinking of the trouble he had avoided. Then the girl's head popped from beneath the shining surface of the creek. Seoras nearly fell off the wall before he could form a thought, he was so surprised. His balance was shot, and he was wobbling.
"AHH! Where did she come from? And is she...? EEP!!!" >////<
Trying to regain his footing, he tried to plant his left foot. Unfortunately, he tried to plant it on a collection of small, broken-off pebbles. He toppled off the wall into a tree, taking out a few of the smaller branches and shaking the leaves throughout the whole of the oak he'd fallen into.
"Ow..." he whispered, shaking his head. He looked down back at the creek in time to see the girl go under again. So she hadn't seen him...lucky? He wasn't sure. "Best try and get out of here now. Don't want to be caught where I don't really belong...especially not with that girl...doing that..." His face was very red as he tried to unscramble himself from the branches of the tree. As he twisted to try and regain some sense of which way he was going, Seoras heard a crack and froze. Not good...Another crack, and a shift on the branch below him. "Why me...?"
Well, he wasn't likely to get that answer, seeing as the branch chose that moment to give out, dumping its black-loving charge lower into its boughs. His body bumped against a great many living chunks of wood, receiving his share of cuts, bangs, and bruises from his trip down. As his head bounced against another branch, his mind registered a bush below him. His last conscious thought before he fell through mercifully empty space to flatten the bush with a seemingly thunderous crash was, "Oh no, not again..."
((anyone care to guess the reference?))

((I have no idea))
Chassidy heard a crash and looked up. She still didn't see anyone. She shook her head and ducked her hair under to get it wet. She sighed softly then heard two more crashes. She looked over and saw a boy falling. She shreiked for both fear of him being injured and anger that he had been spying on her. She looked around and didn't see anything to cover herself with. She looked back over at the boy and waited for him to get up. She hoped he wasn't to injured. If he was then she wouldn't be able to tell him off.

((You've never read Hitchhiker's Guild To The Galaxy by Douglass Adams? You should, it's really funny...That particular quote of "Oh no, not again." was the only thought of pot of petunias as it was manifested at about 30,000 feet above a random planet and went hurtling down to be decimated upon impact. Yes, a pot of petunias. As in flowers. You would have to read the book...))((anyways...))
"Ok, so that really hurt...no more wall walking." Seoras regained consciousness fairly quickly, his mind coming back to a body covered in cuts and scrapes and bruises that would appear tomorrow. He also woke to a splitting headache. He reached around with his hand to feel the back of his head, wincing in pain, but his fingers came away dry. "At least I'm not bleeding...up there at least." He rolled out of the bush and forced himself into a sitting position and looked down at his exposed arms and legs. Thin red lines criss-crossed his limbs, a tribute to the pointy existence of the now crushed bush. The pain began to subside anywhere below his neck, but his head still pounded. Seoras looked up, finally registering that he had fallen inside the wall and was now sitting in some rich person's personal woods. "How did I get in here...oh yeah...that girl..." His eyes widened slightly at the memory and his cheeks collected some color abnormal for the pale boy. He blinked and shook his head to clear it, deciding against this course of action when the pain in his head flared again. "Wait..." What had happened to that girl anyways?" He struggled to his feet, catching sight of the shimmer on the water of the creek. "That's right, she was in the water there... And then he saw her, still in the water and still...oh, this wasn't good. He shielded his eyes with his hands, rather afraid to look at her. He had had plenty of experiences with the wrath of a teenage girl, and none of them had been fun. Most had been very painful...
