"Just come out already Veronica!" Logan said as he peeked under the table.

Veronica put her hand over her mouth to stifle a giggle that wanted to escape. She was hiding behind a vacuum in Logan's kitchen closet. Logan always made fun of her height and primarily was the reason she always lost to him in basketball. However, it was she who was queen of hide and seek mostly because of her ability to fit anywhere with her small size.

She didn't make a sound until he said the words. "Veronica come on, this got boring already!" 10-year-old Logan complained. Veronica always waited to come out from her hiding spots until Logan admitted defeat otherwise, she wouldn't get to rub it in his face later.

Logan had been looking for Veronica all over his house for the past 20 minutes. He didn't know why he always agreed to play this game, if the results were always the same with Veronica winning.

After five minutes and on his last nerve of patience Logan said, "Fine, I give up Veronica! You win! You are the master of hide and seek, the winner and I'm the loser. The L-O-S-E-R! Can we play something else now?"

Veronica giggled and came running out of the closet. She had been sitting for so long, that she came out running with a great amount of energy and didn't stop in time until went crashing into a stunned Logan.

Veronica landed on top of Logan and smiling said as she pinned his arms down with hers, "You admit it then! I'm the winner and you are the loser." Logan annoyed now says, "Yes! I already said it. Will you get off me now!" Veronica still holding his arms down so he won't try to get up says, "You have to say it to my face!" Logan rolling his eyes in annoyance says, "Fine! Veronica is the winner, and I'm the loser." Veronica beams a big smile and gets off him. As Logan stands up and dusts himself off. They share a silent moment before Logan touches Veronica's arm and starts running to the living room yelling behind him, "You're it!" Veronica let him have a five-second head start then went chasing after him.
