i woke up the next morning to loud banging at my door. i groan and look up to see rico and savanh. i smile when i see ricos face. there's just something about it that makes me so happy. i love it, i love him. anyways i sit up and rub my eyes.
"wtf are you guys doing here? where's mom and dad?" i ask
"ur mom went out to visit ur grandma she's sick in hospital-" savanh says
"what?!" i practically yell. no no nooooo i can't lose my gram she's the only one that listens and cares about me! she's the only one that knows about my dad and rico! tears start to form in my eyes. i blanked what everyone else was saying and the last thing i saw was rico having a go at savanh im not sure why tho, before i passed out onto the floor.
~ a couple of hours later ~
"dude we should probably call her mom"
"i don't know man what if she doesn't wake up"
"shutup stupid she's gonna wake up, she just fainted idiot"
"stfu both of you y'all are so irritating"
i hear faint whispering and slowly open my eyes. i blink i few times before everything came back to reality. i then see rico and evon quickly rush over to me.
"oh my fucking god your alive!!" savanh says
"shutup! are you ok ry?" rico asks sitting down next to me on my bed.
"h-how long have i been asleep for?" i ask sitting up on my elbows
"idk like nearly an hour anyways how are you feeling he asks putting a piece of hair behind my ear making me blush.
"better, where's mom and dad?" i ask evon
"grandma got out of hospital a while ago but she needed to be flown over to a better hospital so mom and dad flew over to LA with gram so we're gonna crash at ricos for the week" he says
"what? we can't stay at ricos for the whole week that's too long" i say while rubbing my forehead
"we'll be fine, we can always go back and forth between each others houses, just relax ok?" evon says and i nod
"well just think of it, we can do some lit shit when ur parents are gone" savanh says and we all laugh.
"ok hurry and pack your bags, we'll be in the car waiting hurry" blake says and they all leave. i sigh and get up. i pack my clothes in my nike duffle bag that i use to take to the gym and put on my nike socks. i tie my hair up and shove on my slides taking my phone, phone charger, skateboard and ear plugs (i lowkey prefer ear plugs, they look kinda better).
i quickly go downstairs and out the front. evon locks the door behind me and we jump into the car. on the way there we go through taco bell and get some food. we then get to ricos and eat our lunch. i wasn't that hungry because i was till a bit dizzy and trying to think about gram. just the thought of her leaving the earths surface makes me just want to scream in pain. she's the only one who listened to me about my problems and gave me her opinion about it back. i was drinking my drink and staring into space when i felt a light tap on my shoulder. i blink and turn to rico
"hey, you good?" he asks and i nod slowly. he stares at me with an expression as if he's trying to read my mind. "ryder don't lie, what's up? is it your grandma" he asks softly. i bit my lip. there was just something about him. his kind words, his smile, laugh, i could go on forever. but he just had this way, like he could never piss me off. i could be with this boy for months, years and never get bored of him. he obviously doesn't feel the same tho. anyways i nodded and he sighed. "do you want to go to the skate park? to get this off your mind for a bit?" he asks and i nod. i go up to the spare room where i was staying and got dressed into this:
