"Hi Robin are you coming or are you just gonna stare at your phone forever?"

i look up to see Shane standing right by the barrier of the rink. he was smirking all over his smirking face in that "i know i'm right, here" way he always managed to pull off so well. he could be quite a pain at times but he was cool for the most part so we were "skating friends" like you know those people that you would punch in the face outside of your sport but you somehow click with in that one scenario? yah? well that's what we were.

he was right tho i had been staring at my phone for too long but how could i not? today was the quote on quote "big day" as my mom called it and with just one simple text my life would change forever.

"okay that's it"

before i even could even register what Shane just said my phone was already on its way out of my hands at an alarming speed and in no time i'm left sitting just starting in to the abyss.

my trance was broken by Shane who's loud and annoying voice decide to break through the little mental shell i put myself in
"okay your phone is in your bag now come on"

without thinking about it my body did what it was trained to do and went on to the ice were i somehow managed not to fall a single time while practicing my routine half present with the other half of me mentally in some wired other dimension.

after explaining something to me a little bit too many times we're i just kept on replying "WhAt?" like an idiot, Shane took notice of my mental absence.

"What is wrong?"
"WhAt? oh ermm sorry it's nothing"
i feel myself blushing a bit, i do that when i lie. i don't like lying to Shane but i don't really want to share this one i'm just praying that it's not too obvious

"are you shure?"
"yah. why are you so interested all of a sudden?"
i know that i shouldn't get annoyed at him he's just trying to help but could he just mind his own damm business for once.

"well for one you look so off today you almost look pale, and i know your slow but you usually understand what i'm trying to say after the third "what?" i've never actually seen you get to five before"
he's right, which is annoying but he's still right

"im sorry i snapped back at you i just have some home stuff going on"
i look down on my skates and a small part of me wishes he would ask more about it.

"is it your dad?"
see that's the thing with tose type of friends thay are the one you talk to the most cus it's easier and none of you have to pay for a therapist, Shane knows everything about me and i know everything about him. like i know that his brother died in a car accident a few years back and he knows that i have no idea of who my biological dad is
you know normal teen stuff

"yah it's him, my mom told me she had something to tell me about him later"
it actually feel good to you know talk about it and shit

"well do you wanna leave early?"
as i said i know him and he knows me and in that moment he knew that was what i needed

"that would be nice"
"okay i'll see you soon then"
we hug goodbye and i skate over to the bench, while i'm wiping my blades down i see a notification pop up on my screen that makes my heart pump so fast that i'm positive a doctor could have mistaken me for someone how just did a 100 meter sprint.

Five words forever imprinted in my brain

"Robin can we talk later?"
