"It's just a quick session to practice before the competition, Sam," You argued as you were heading out the door with your board. You were preparing for the Olympics given that you were on Team USA and you competed there last time. You took home the bronze, but this year, you were dead set on getting the gold or at least silver. You only missed out on the silver by the slightest margin, so you were determined to be as close to perfect as humanly possible. Sam, your boyfriend, knew this, and he always supported you. However, today, it looked like it would rain soon, and he voiced his concerns as you were about to leave. "Sam, I'll go to a different bowl if that'll make you feel better. There's this old skatepark just outside the city that's practically abandoned I could go to."
"If you promise to be back if it starts raining," Sam sighs from his spot in the kitchen. Colby had just shown up, and they were going to be discussing their next string of videos. That's the main reason you decided to go practice. They really needed to sort it out, and all of your projects were already done. Plus, there is no harm in overpreporation. "Just please promise to be careful. I know we're in the middle of a desert, but when it rains, it pours."
"Yeah, yeah, Mr. Weatherman, I hear you," You teased as you walked up behind him to grab a water and a small snack from the fridge. Then, you leaned up to press a short kiss to his cheek before heading out of the kitchen, purposely bumping into Colby's shoulder in the process. "Don't have too much fun while I'm gone. I'll text you when I'm on my way back."
You jumped in your car, threw your stuff into the passenger side, and turned on the car. You set up the music, knowing it was going to take a while to get out to the skate park and you needed good tunes to be able to sit through the drive.
Inside the house, your boyfriend and his best friend were joking about how you could not sit still for too long, and you always had to do something. They only needed to situate a few things before they were able to call it a day and just hang out. They decided to film a couple of reaction videos to get ahead of schedule since they were going on a trip soon.
The drive out to the park did not take nearly as long as you thought. Maybe it was because there was a noticeable lack of cars on the road and very grey-looking clouds in the sky. It looked almost nighttime with how dark the clouds were. From what you could remember, the park still had functional lights, so you hoped that was still the case.
Unfortunately, it was not, but it was times like this when you were happy you had a light in your truck. It was a portable light usually meant for camping, but it came in handy when the park was so dark.
