“Over the Mountain ” by Ava Kenemuth

Submitted to Contest #265

When I had initially gotten the invitation to my best friend’s engagement party I was overjoyed. Elise and Andrew had been good friends all through our childhood and dated in college. I was about to bubble in the “Yes” space on the card, until I saw the location. It was Andrew’s vacation cabin just behind the mountains. I loved Andrew’s cabin, but the mountains always frightened me. I tell most people it's a fear of heights. Though not completely a lie, I really always get a bad feeling there. Sure it’s a great ski spot that I do use every n...

Submitted to Contest #265

“Ezra, where do you think we are going?” I shifted the bags of grain to make a place to lay down.“I’m not sure. I heard a man with an Italian accent.

“Mr. Stephens, it's time for your speech,” James reminded me quietly. I had been absently twirling my champagne trying to enjoy the photos that adorned the walls.

Submitted to Contest #264

I popped a squat down on the black diamond bench. I dropped the red plastic jug at my feet and gently placed her leather bound journal next to me. I took this moment to bask. I stared across the bright green field. Everything about the field screams superiority and confidence. The precise white tape slices the field into yard lines. The tall silver field lights there to illuminate victory. The stiff bleachers that anticipate sitting the whole school. The obnoxiously sized score board ready to gloat about the home team.

Author bio

I love stories. They reveal truth and transport you to worlds you may never get to go to. I hope I learn to write stories that comfort and inspire like the authors that I love. My favourites are S.E Hinton, Chelsea Ichaso, and Jordan Taylor. I also hope to win enough money to pay for my college housing.
