(Brandon's POV)
  A line was all the way down the sidewalk into the skatepark. People were crowding the entrance. I thought that today wasn't supposed to be busy. But the I remembered that tonight was the big concert of "The Black Nights" which is a really popular band in these parts. They are having a sale on their tickets today. I didn't particularly like the band because it attracted so many girls and most of their songs were for girls.

  I skidded to a stop and picked my skateboard up and walked to the skatepark entrance. My friend Luke was waiting for me at the entrance. He ran towards me and started talking.

  "Dude can you believe how many people showed up for the tickets?" Luke asked.

  "Well it makes sense they are on sale so ya lets get in before we get blamed for cutting in line," I muttered.

  "Good idea lets go," Luke agreed. We walked into the entrance and went to meet up with Carmen. We looked then finally spotted him by the vending machine. Walking over to him he turned around with a Gatorade in his hand.

  "Hey guys want to go skating now?" Carmen asked.

  "Well ya that's what we came here for," I bellowed. They laughed then skated towards the railings with me following close behind.
*3 hours later*
  "I'm tired and hungry how 'bout we go get something to eat?" Luke asked rubbing his stomach.

  "Ya I could eat," I said sitting on a bench.

  "Ok then it's settled lets go to Burger King," Luke said enthusiastically.

  "Ok lets go," I agreed. We grabbed all of our stuff and put it into one of the free bags in the locker room then took off on our skateboards.
*10 minutes later*
    We arrived at Burger King, so we screeched to a stop and went inside sitting at a booth. Setting our stuff in the booth we walked towards the counter to order. The cashier looked at us then asked "what would you like?"

  "Um okay I would like a double bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles, mustard, and ketchup and also some fries with a chocolate milkshake," Luke ordered.

  "Holy crap dude," I exclaimed.

  "What didn't I say I was hungry?" Luke questioned. I rolled my eyes then started to order for myself.

  "Ok I would like a basket of chicken strips with fries and a root beer," I stated.

  "Ok and for you sir," the cashier asked.

  "Oh um I would like just some fries with a sprite please," Carmen said. Carmen isn't really a big talker he actually does a lot of his talking through skateboarding and other stuff. But that's why I like him he isn't like every other boy. We all walked back towards our booth then sat down.

  "So you guys got any girlfriends that I don't know about?" Luke asked.

  "Actually yes her name is Katie," I stated.

  "Oh cute name I have a REALLY hot one her name is Sadie," Luke purred.

  "What about you Carmen, do you have a girlfriend?" Luke asked.

  "Uh no I don't, but I do have a pretty good friend that's a girl," Carmen muttered.

  "Oh really what's her name?" Luke asked.

  "Oh um her name is Erabelle," Carmen said.

  "Pfft your friend is that nerd who reads way to many books," Luke laughed.

  "You mean the girl from C-13?" I asked.

  "Yup that's her," Carmen said. Then a girl walked up to us and gave us our food. Luke drooled looking at his huge meal then he snatched his burger and took a huge bite out of it. Carmen took one of his fries and dunked it into his ketchup then shoved it into his mouth. I took one of my chicken strips and bit into it then took a gulp of root beer.
*30 minutes later*
"Oh I'm stuffed," Luke mumbled patting his stomach.

  "Well I have to be going fellas I have some business to do before I meet my girlfriend," I said getting up.

  "Ok see you man," Luke waved.

  "Bye Brandon," Carmen whispered. I grabbed my stuff then went out the door. I picked out my skateboard then flew down the sidewalk towards my home.
*15 minutes*
  I arrived at the door of my house. I entered my house then threw my stuff on the floor. Sniffing the air I could smell frosting and chocolate. I smiled then went back outside to take a short walk before I went to meet my girlfriend.

  I didn't know where I was going to walk to, but I just kept going straight down the sidewalk. Spring break was soon coming to an end, so I wanted to make the most of it. Passing a cafe I saw a bunch of couples sitting across from each other. Then that's when I saw Katie and another boy that I didn't know holding each other's hands, then they leaned in and kissed each other. Anger filled up inside me, and I pulled out my phone and texted Katie. "We're done why couldn't you have just told me to my face instead of keeping it from me, so we're done don't talk to me don't do anything that involves me we're done,".

  I shut my phone and walked down the sidewalk pissed at my ex-girlfriend. While I was walking down the sidewalk I ran into a girl. I looked at her and saw she had glasses and curled brown hair.

  "Oh I'm so sorry my head was somewhere else," I apologized.

  "Oh um I-it's ok I wasn't looking where I was going," she whispered.

  "Hey you look familiar what's your name?" I asked.

  "Oh um I'm Erabelle," she muttered. My heart began to beat faster as she looked at me with her teal green eyes.

  "And what's your name?" Erabelle asked.

  "Oh I'm Brandon," I mumbled. I swear I thought I was seeing an angel before me she looked so beautiful with her curled hair up against her skin and her sparkling eyes soaring into my heart.

  "So Brandon I have to get home," Erabelle explained.

  "Oh ya sure I will walk you home to make sure you get home alright," I offered.

  "Um ok I guess," Erabelle said quietly. We walked and walked and finally arrived at Erabelle's house which was a pretty normal size.

  "Ok this is me so I will be going now," Erabelle said.

  "Ok I'll see you at school," I shouted walking down the sidewalk. She closed the door and I couldn't control myself any longer from having these thoughts. She is so pretty I don't know why anybody can't see that just because she reads a lot doesn't mean she isn't pretty.

  Ugh sometimes people can be so mean to people without even getting to know them first. I don't get it why do people have to be so mean. No matter what I'm going to protect Erabelle's image so she doesn't get hurt.
