S-C-A-R-E-D

I was on the playground with my friend. It was pitch black. Only a faint light was shining, so we could see ourselves. We played for a long time. Suddenly I saw a small light. Wait! Is it moving? It was way out in the field where the baseball field was. "What is that?" I said in a shaky voice. My friend looked, then started to run. "Wait up!" It was something like a flashlight. What if it was a robber? What if it was a policeman? It was following us. It got closer, closer, and closer. Finally, I hid behind a tree. It passed. All it was was a bicycle with a flashing light! I can't believe I was so dumb!
