The last bell finally rung.
Everyone was packing up, when Gianna felt a tap on her shoulder, once again.
"You ready?" Asked Markus, trying to hide his excitement.
He had yapped to Brad all lesson about what he and Gianna were going to do at the skatepark.
"Yup!" The girl replied, slinging her backpack over her shoulders.
The two quickly left, Mel, Cas and Brad waving back to them.
"They are SO gonna kiss." Cas whispered.
"Uh-huh." Mel and Brad hummed, smug smiles forming on all three of their faces.

After picking up the skateboard from the girls father, they were making their way to the skatepark, when Gi felt something brushing against her right hand.
She looked down only to see Markus' pinkie trying to sneak it's way into her palm. The girl giggled, and grabbed his hand, intertwining their fingers.
She turned her head the opposite direction, a million thoughts racing through her mind — She was proud, to say the least. She finally made a move.

They walked in peace, until Markus interrupted the silence.
"We're here!" He said.
"Geez, finally."
"Oh come on, it not like you even did anything!"
Markus said, in a playfully angry tone. Gianna laughed.
"Despite having your OWN skateboard, you still chose to ride mine with me!" The boy added.
"Oh please! You enjoyed it!" She argued, "you were holding onto me the WHOLE time! You even placed your head on my shoulder at one point, I heard your breathing!"
She had him there.
*Gianna 1 - Markus 0.
"Tch yeah... whatever..." he said casually, as if his cheeks weren't burning up underneath his cap.
"It was fine though, I didn't mind!" Gianna said, trying to lighten the mood. "Let's just skate!"
He nodded. That's what they were here for;
Their skate-date.
