Skater Love

Chapter 11

Zoie's POV

My eyes were so sore. I wondered why as I sat up. I was so confused. I looked around and saw slides and swings. Did I actually sleep out here last night? Well, I wasn't alone. I look down to my left with Nerf sleeping with his arm rested on my tummy. He's such a cute sleeper! I tried to focus on what happened last night. Oh wait, I remember I was yelling at Nerf and crying for no reason and I guess the rest of the night we were cuddling and he comforted me a lot. I shook his shoulder a little to wake him up.

"Nerf... Wake up." I whispered. His eyes opened.

" Where the hell are we?" He said looking around confused.

"Oh wait... Last night.... Hahaha." He laughed.

"Ha whatever Nerf. C'mon lets go." 

"Where?" He asks

" I have to get home and take a shower." I replied while standing up.

"No don't leave me babe!" He whined. Wait... Did he just called me babe... The dare isn't going on still...

"Babe?" I ask confused.

"Yeah babe?"

" No I mean why are you calling me babe. Remember the dare is over..." He shook his head a little.

"Oh...Sorry." He said a little disappointed but got up.

"Well, lets go." He seems so sad...

As we walked back, we didn't talk at all. All Nerf did was eat a Twix bar and gave me half to eat. It was all silence and awkward as we walked. I hated this. I shouldn't have question him bout saying 'babe'. Especially what happened last night when he told me how he really felt and how beautiful I am. We finally reach to my house.

"Thanks for walking me home Nerf." I say smiling. He nods his a little and walks away. He didn't seem to care. Good job Zoie. You ruined everything again!

Nerf's POV

I should really stop trying. I mean is she really going to try and forget about what I told her last night. It's as if she's pushing me away. This morning I called her 'babe' and wasn't joking then she just questions me about it. I mean I know I haven't asked her out yet but I want us to at least act like we like each other. Wait. She doesn't even like me. Why am I stressing over this? Why ??? There's no point I guess anymore. 

As I walked away from her I can hear her behind me crying. I didn't want to look back. I didn't wanted to see her hurt face. She can't always be the one hurt. I'm hurt as well! It makes me so angry. I slammed the front door of my house hard and ran upstairs ending up hitting the walls. No one was there so I was free to do anything I want. The hell am I kidding. I'm abounded here. My mom is probably at her abusive boyfriends house Dave. I swear, if I see one more bruise on her , I'll kill him.

My dad moved to Chicago because mom and dad divorced. Never really had an impact on me for some reason. I'm glad dad's gone because he was abusive as well. But, I miss mom. She isn't even a mom anymore. All she does is drugs and sex. Doesn't make anything of her life. I'm surprised I didn't turn out to be like her. I feel like no one even gives a shit about me honestly. That's why I'm hurt by Zoie. She doesn't seem to care about me and everything I do. As I'm hitting walls and thinking through all these thoughts, my phone rings.It's a text message...

Zoie: Hey....

I decide to ignore her. I'm done with people not caring about me anymore. I don't need Zoie just like she doesn't need me. All through the day, every text message I get was from Zoie. 12 messages from her but I just ignored. That's when I get another message but from Cookie.
