Little Girl Don't Be Afraid
Who: Brenna and Kristen
Where: The park
When: Fireworks time
Kristen may not have been from America originally but she was an American citizen so she liked the Fourth of July. Okay, the fireworks helped. A lot. Actually they were favorite part of the whole day, surpassing even wandering around the various stands and seeing that things that people made. Missy'd even gotten her a necklace from that one nice old woman's stand, a little crystal dangling on a gold chain that she'd said was good for focusing. Missy'd rolled her eyes but Kristen had been utterly delighted and was probably going to wear the thing until the chain broke. Which might be sooner rather than later because first, she couldn't stop playing with it and second, gymnastics weren't really that kind to jewelry. Maybe she could take it off when she competed... oh well, thoughts for later. Right now she had to find a good place to watch the fireworks!
Her sister was off getting them something to eat and drink so Kristen was left in charge. She had a blanket held tightly in her arms as she wandered through the crowds of people, weaving in and out easily thanks to her small size. Ooooh, there's a nice tree. It even felt like a good idea as she dropped the blanket and spread it out. But instead of settling down and just waiting for Missy she glanced up at the low-hanging branches of the tree. Oh yeah, she could jump up and reach that. Rubbing her hands together, Kristen jumped up and grabbed the branch above her head, swinging herself up easily before letting herself dangle upside down, the little crystal striking her her firmly in the forehead. "Ow," she muttered, rubbing at her forehead as she watched the people going by upside down. Definitely a nice place to watch from.
