Me and JB 42

“Put him inside now!” I said to Joey. Nick was still hiding behind the lawn chair.
“But isn’t she so cute? Come here Hunter!”
“Joey, now!”
“All, right,” Joey said. He took Hunter’s leash and lead her inside. I grabbed Nick’s hand. He whimpered.
“Oh no!” cried Joey.
“What now?” I asked.
“The door won’t open! It must of locked when I came outside,”. Great. I went over to he door and tried opening it. No use. It was locked shut.
“Go around front and see if the front door is open,” I said to Joey. I took Hunter’s leash. Then, it started to rain.
“Nick, she won’t bite. Come and pet her!” Nick shook his head.
“Please!” I said. He got up slowly and went to pet her but then, Hunter barked and Nick jumped.
“Ouch!” he cried as he landed on the grass. Joey cam back around.
“It’s locked too!” Now, it was pouring. We were soaked and one of us was scared.
“Let’s call mom on your cell!” said Joey.
“I left it inside,” I said. I was so smart. Nick pulled his i phone from his pocket.
“It’s dead, it got wet!” he said.
