"Ready, Set, Go!" We all race off onto the track over bumps and jumps. Tate is in first, I am in second place, Luke is in third and Jake is in fourth. I speed up to catch up to Tate. I make a sharp turn just in time to cut Tate off. Now I'm in the lead and left Tate in the dust. I look back and see I'm ahead of everyone else.

Heading up on the jump, I speed up to make just a little dust fly up from behind the rear tire. After I make the jump I look behind my shoulder, Jake is on my tail. I guess he left Luke behind. Jake speeds up to try to catch up with me, I also speed up. He is right next to me. There is another turn that then leads into little hills. I know how to do this, so i slow down a little to see Jake speeding up. Haha, Thaat was a bad choice. As we reach the miniature hills, he hits the hills and flies into the air and gets his tire stuck in dirt.

The only ones left are Luke and I. He speeds up. Soon he catches up to me. I speed up but that doesn't help much, He is on my side. I look at him. "Your going to lose you know that right?" I reply "Haha you wish". He smirks and I give him a satisfying wink and smile. We both speed up and dirt is flying through the air.

I'm trying to think of a way that I can beat him. Then I notice the biggest jump of the track thats standing right in front of the finish line. Jake and Tate were there cheering for us. Right now we are tied. I look at him right before the jump, he winks at me and I mouth "Good Luck". In reply he gave me a thumbs up. We both reach the jump about ten feet high. We hit the air together and we came down to the finish line.

"Whoa!!!!!" they said. "What?" I said,"You guys did awesome!!!" "Thanks". "Who won?" Luke and I asked. "Actually, we thought Faith one but it came out as a tie". "Well, I guess we both won" "Yep, Good Job" "Thanks".

"OK!!!, Who's hungry?!?" I mentioned. "Me,I am, Me too" . "Where do you want to go?" We all look at each other. "Andy's!!!!!" ( ice cream place) "Andy's it is".

We load the dirt bikes back into the truck and drive to Andy's. We get there and realize we are all dirty but who cares. We walk up to order. "Hey, Nice bikes. You guys went riding I assume." "Sure did" I replied. "Not many girls ride dirt bikes." "Well I'm one that did" I said. "I see that." he smiled at me. "what's your name?" he asked "Faith." "Well nice to meet you Faith, I'm Cristian." "Nice to meet you Christian."

He smiled. I think he is a cute nerd. He seems really shy though.

"Do you want to sit with us?" I asked because he seemed out of place. "Really? You want me to sit with you?" "Yea sure, Why not?" "Well I don't know, not very many people ask to hang of with me." "Well I just did. Come on, sit with us. is that okay guys?" They all nodded. "Then its settled. Come sit with us." "OK."

He sits right next to me. "Did you get any Ice cream?" "No" he said. "What do you want?" "What?" "What type of ice cream do you want?" "You don't have to buy me anything." " Your right I don't, but I will."

He ordered and I paid. We all sat at a table at the park that was across the street from Andy's.  "So Cristian, Tell us something about you." "Oh well, I'm an orphan, I'm homeless and I don't have any friends." We all stopped doing what we were doing and looked each other.

"I'm so sorry" "Its fine, I'm use to it." "Where do you live?" "No Where right now."  he said. "How old are you?" I asked. "15." "How do you have those clothes?" "They were left from when I lived in a foster home." "oh" I said.

"Do you need someplace to stay?" "Yes" "Well." I said. "Do you want to stay at my house?" Everything went silent. They all gave me the "what?!?!" face. "Really? I don't want to be a bother." he said. "As long as there is no funny bussiness." "Are you sure?" he asked. I thought for a moment. "I am positive."

We all get in the truck. Good thing he has a big truck. The maximum number of people is five not counting the back. We take Tate and Jake home then Luke, Cristian and I go to my house.

"Cristian, you will stay here with me. Luke will be here also for a while." I said. "Are you sure? I mean, I can leave if u want." he asked. "Its fine. You don't need to be living on the street." "OK." he replied.  So we sat down on the couch but Cristian sat on the floor. Wait, Why is he setting on he floor? "Cristian?" "Oh I'm sorry, Am I bugging you?" "No I'm just wondering why your sitting on the floor and not on the couch." I said. He replied "I don't want to make you uncomfortable." " You won't make me uncomfortable, come sit up here." "OK".He came up and sat by me but not really close to me.

The sun goes down and it turns dark. Luke is on YouTube, I am laying on the couch and Cristian is being as quite as he can be.

"Well I'm tired, anyone else?" Luke said. "I am" I replied. Cristian stayed quite. "Cristian? Are you tired?" he looked at me and nodded. "Cristian you know you don't have to be shy." " I can't help it. Its my life." "Well we're going to change that. Do you have anything to wear?" he shook his head no. "I think I might have something." he raised his head in curiosity. I came back with some old clothes my dad had before he left. Fortunately they fit him perfectly.

Luke has slept with me a lot before. When we were kids we would sleep together when it stormed. We would hide under the covers and sometimes had a flashlight and tell stories. So its really not weird that we sleep together. "Cristian, Where do u want to sleep?" "On the floor." "Really? I don't really want you to sleep on the floor. You could at least sleep on couch." "OK." "If you get hungry there is some stuff in the fridge." "OK." "Good Night." "Good Night."

Luke and I crawl into my bed but we can't go to bed that easily.

Luke: So. We need to talk.

*Gulp*
