You and Me

Skater Boy

"Wow, London sure is beautiful." My mother says with a smile.

"And famous. I've heard of a lot of singers living around here." I said.

We were just getting off the plane to London. I saw a man with a suit and paper saying "Payne"

"Dad, did you really?!" I said annoyed.

I hate when he spends money like that. Then he says, "ooh, I'm broke. I don't have money like that to spend." When it comes to mother and I.

I picked up my luggage and my brother's bag full of nothing but toys and stomped over to the limo driver. My dad was holding most of it, plus the cats.

"Take these. We've got lots more." I said giving him the bags.

And with a nod, they were taken to the limo. I helped my mom with her bags and we all got in the long, expensive car.. There was a fridge with juices and sodas, sandwiches and snacks, and even ice cream in there.

Well, this is the highlight of my day.

I stuffed my face as the driver sped off onto a highway.

Five sandwiches and a tub of ice cream later, we were at our new home. And it was huge. Like, mansion huge. There were only two floors, but that's all it needs to make it look so big. Back in the US, we lived in apartments and only apartments. My mother, brother and i were even broke to the point where we had to sleep in the car.

As soon as we got al the stuff inside the living room, i headed straight for my room.

And let me tell ya, it was gorgeous. Just the way i always pictured my dream room.

Baby blue walls with a chalkboard as one wall, a nice bed with yellow sheets and orange pillows, a desk with the newest windows laptop, a whole bookcase full of wonderful stories, a flat screen TV on the wall, walk-in closet and guess what else???

MY OWN FRIGGIN BATHROOOOM!!!

Maybe moving to London wasn't that bad after all.

After i put the little clothes i had away, i looked for the nearest skate park. A girl gots to skateboard when a girl gots to skateboard! I put on my black converse and brought my helmet, bag full of water, snacks and a first aid kit.

Im pretty clumsy.

I found the perfect one right down the street from our house.

When I get there, I put my board down and just as I'm about to push my way onto a ramp;

"Look out!!" I hear someone yell before i fall to the floor with a weight on my body.

See? If i had seen this person, i wouldn't have bumped into them. clumsy me.

Yeah, it hurt. But I've been through worse.

The kid got off me as soon as he could and helped me up from the concrete floor.

"I am soo so sorry, love." He kept repeating, making no eye contact.

"Its fine, its fine. Im alright. Are you?" I look around my arms and hands as he checks his.

"Oh, gawd." I say as i see the huge scratch on his elbow. I took him near the park fountain and helped him clean it off.

"It burns! It burns!" He says as it touches the cold water. 'What a baby' i was thinking in my head. He looked just a little older than me.

"Its okay, its okay. Im gonna put the bandage on now." I say softly as i would to my little brother.

A couple minutes later, i finished.

He looks at me with admiration in his eyes.

"What?"

"Nothing. I just realized something, that's all."

"Realized what?"

"That you are one of the most beautiful and caring people in the world." He says confidently.

I felt my cheeks heat up. Our eyes locked and it felt like... Like... I got butterflies in my tummy.

Wow its been a long time since that happened. Speaking of a long time...

"Uh, i gotta go." I say as i let go of his hurt arm and grab my stuff.

I start walking away, when a hand gripped my wrist lightly and made me turn back.

"My name's Zayn, by the way. " he says getting closer.

"Skylar." I say, cheekily with a wink.

He let go, only to walk aside me.

"Well aren't you a flirty one." He says teasingly.

I laugh, "and you?"

"Well, I'm allowed to. Im part of the most famous boy band on the planet." He says.

"Pshhh, yeah, okay. I'll believe it when I see and hear it." I say.

"Well then, Friday night at the Starbucks near the park. Karaoke. We'll be there." He whispers in my ear.

I smirk, "Same here. See ya then, Malik."

"Thanks, by the way."

And with that he winked and we went our separate ways.

When i got home, food was on the table. Yea! Mashed potatoes with rice and steak!

I took it to my room and thought of the things i was gonna do tomorrow.

-wake up

-eat and feed cats

-wash up, brush teeth

-find bookstore and interesting book

-eat lunch

-comeback home and eat more

-find a small job

-record new song

-eat dinner

-sleep

Well, that didn't take long.

After that, i took my phone out and looked up Zayn Malik.

What? Im curious.

His twitter popped up and i wrote it down. I signed into my own and followed him right away.

Two minutes later, he followed back.
