We ran to the counter and got the socks and roller skates; then sat down at a nearby empty bench. Once we finished putting them on we walked over to the roller rink. I stepped on and immediately fell over. I could hear El giggling to herself before lending me a hand.
El:"Here, I cam teach you how to skate."
I continued holding her hand while constantly nearly tripping over, It was really embarrassing even Will knew how to skate and then I'm just out here making a fool out of myself in front of him. Speaking of that, Will has just been skating behind us not saying anything. Is he mad at me or something? I don't get why he won't talk to me when I've done nothing wrong. It was starting to get on my nerves. Before I could think about it any further El interrupted my thoughts.
El: "Hey, do you want to get one of those milkshakes. I've heard they're really good and I've never tried one before so.."
Mike: "Sure, we have been skating for about an hour now."
Once we got the milkshakes me, El and Will sat down at an empty booth and all 3 of us started drinking our milkshakes. Well at least 2 of us did since Will decided that he didn't want one.
El: "Here try mine." I took a sip out of her drink,
Mike: "Hmm, yours is pretty good mine is still definitely better though."
El: "Really? Let me try it." I slid the cup over to her and she took a sip out of it.
El: "Wow! You were right yours is really good, oh um I need to go to the toilet I'll be back in a minute, you guys just stay here."
I watched as El got up and walked to the bathroom then turned to face Will. He wasn't saying anything just staring at the painting. After a couple more minutes of awkward silence I decided to try and start a conversation.
Mike:" What's been up with you lately Will?"
Will: "Huh? What do you mean..?"
Mike: "Well you haven't said a single word to me or El instead you've just been moping and rolling your eyes when ever El talks. You basically sabotaged the whole day."
Will: "Your joking right? I've been a total third wheel this entire day it's been miserable, so sorry if I wasn't smiling.."
Third wheel? Is that how we made him feel I didn't know he was miserable. But why? Is he jealous of El or something? No. Why would he be jealous of her? When she has done nothing wrong, he's probably just trying to be a douche and make me feel bad for him.
Mike: "Yeah whatever man, let's just go and find El. I'm bored anyway.."
I got up and walked to the girl's bathroom and stood outside the door waiting for El. A few minutes later she came out.
El: "Oh! Hey Mike what are you doing here? I thought you waiting for me at the booth we were sitting at."
Mike: "I got bored and realised that there's not much else to do so I came looking for you."
El: "Oh okay, I guess we were skating for quite a while anyway."
And like that we were walking out of the building after only an hour of being inside. Luckily Jonathan's car was still parked outside so we could go home straight away because I really didn't feel like spending another minute in there after the argument I just had with Will. After only 20 minutes the car stopped moving and we were finally back home (well my home for now). I got out of the car, took both my bags out of the truck and walked inside the house. I placed my bag down and looked around a little
All of a sudden, Will barged past me and ran upstairs at first I was mad but then I noticed it looked like he was crying. What have I done? I was the one being a douche not Will. I knew what I had to do so I picked up my bag, ran upstairs and knocked on Will's door.Mike: "Hey Will, can I come in?"
Will: "yes..."
