The Hitting Zone

Sunday morning, I could hear Noah and Dave getting ready for their run, talking about getting a banana before they go out. Just as I was drifting back to sleep, there was a knock at the door. I opened one eye, curious to who it could be. We boys shared a room while Mom and Dad shared with Grampa so it could be any of them.

Dave opened the door. "Are you serious right now?" He started laughing, opening the door and pulling in the person with a hug.

Zeke. I quickly closed my eyes and pretended I was asleep.

"You came over so early." Noah sounded surprised. "Are you joining us on a run?"

Zeke chuckled. "Yea, Dad told me that you two still ran yesterday so I asked what time. I brought a clean set of clothes for after." He paused. "The other two aren't coming?"

"Not even if you drag me out of this bed." Kyle grumbled.
