2 heartbroken teens

24

This is the longest chapter so far, buckle up.

Once again, I ended up going to the skatepark. Of course, the boys also received the news about the big hangout / party. Skating and drinking; I guess it will not be that bad.

Jordan, Justin and I met up with Zack and Dennis down the street at 5 p.m and we skated together to the skatepark. 

Once there, we split up. They quickly ran to do some tricks but I stayed outside for a while analyzing the atmosphere. I thought there will be around twenty or thirty people, but I can guess there are over fifty. All youths, as if we rented the place. I guess parents didn't want to get their children to this ambiance, which would be predictable and obviously I will enjoy more because there's nothing I hate the most but a kid bumping into me in the middle of the way.

Pretty much of the people are standing in groups, talking and laughing while holding plastic cups and drinking. A few are really skating. And, from some speaker somewhere in there, I hear hip-hop music.

I do a quick glance at every group but I don't see Summer or any of her friends, which is paradoxical as they're who organized the event. Maybe she is just out of my sight. Anyways, I don't waste any more time and finally I enter and start skating.

From the distance I see that Justin has settled into a group of unknowns and he's having a drink with them. So typical of him.

Meanwhile, I'm having some fun with Zack on slopes. Jordan and Dennis are near us trying some other tricks.

After a while, I feel like having a drink, so I grab the skate and walk to the nearest spot of drinks. There is no water as expected, just alcohol and some sodas to mix. Maybe I will take some alcohol after I'm too tired of skating, so for now I take a cup of coke. Actually I'm very thirsty, so I refill it and gulp the drink down twice.

And right when I turn around to go back to skating, I see her. Ten meters away, Summer is talking to some people I don't recognize with her back turned, so she can't see me. She's wearing a hoodie like me, but hers is black and mine is red. However, a second later she takes it off, so now she's in an oversized grey tee. She grabs her skate, which instantly I understand she's gonna skate. And, for my surprise, she's not being accompanied by any of that people, which I thought were some other skater friends.

Well, time to say hi. Remember I came because she's too good persuading.

Summer doesn't even notice me coming closer by her back, probably because of the loud ambiance noise from the people talking out loud and the music. She's on her phone, and right when I reach her I enclose my hand around her throat and squeeze it a little.

"Hey."

Obviously I catch her by total surprise, therefore she gasps and turns around in less than a second.

"Fuck sakes." She murmurs after realizing it was me, putting a hand on her chest. "Don't scare me like that!"

I can't help but laugh.

"Right now I was about to call you." She states.

"Well, here I am."

"I was doubting about it, but ultimately I knew you were gonna come." She comments with a cocky tone.

I chuckle.

"I didn't see you until now, by the way."

"Yeah, we left class later than expected, but I'm glad that the plan isn't a fail."

"I think nobody cares where to go if they're having alcohol to drink."

"True." Summer laughs. "Have you drunk already?"
