Skater Boy (A Keaton Stromberg Love story)

Chapter 8

She turns on TV and guess who she sees? Skater boy rockin' up MTV.

Since the kid had run off to play a game, i decided to sit on the couch and watch some TV I think the xfactor semi-final is on. I havent been watching this season but hey theres no time like the present right? "alright so next we have emblem3" hmm thats kinda a cool name for a band. "and they will be singing baby I love your way" I smiled, that was one of my favorite songs of all time. When the music started it was zoomed in on one guys face, he was actually pretty attractive. He began singing with a great voice "ooo baby i love your way, everyday, i wanna tell you i love your way" Thats when the camera started to zoom out and i saw two other guys. The other one was good looking too, and the last, he looked....farmiliar? wait is that? no it cant be....

Keaton's POV

(before the performance)

"you nervous bro?" Wes asked. I shook my head "naw its gonna be great" i said with a smile. "So why did you pick this song? you never told us" He said. I scratched the back of my neck "so you remember that girl...about two years ago?" I asked more quiet than i had been. He scowled and looked mad, he probably remembers how upset i was when i came home from that party and how im still not really over her. "yea i remember her" he said. I nodded "well i know its stupid but this was her favorite song and for some reason i dunno i just thought maybe she'd see it....." I trailed off. "your still into her, we've been mobbed by girls; and she was so harsh and your still into her?" he asked, clearly confused. "there's just something about her wes, theres something she didnt tell me that night. Its like she didnt want to go" I said, frustrated. "what about Sasha?" he asked. Sasha was this girl i just began seeing but there was no spark.....at all "i dont know somethings just not there" I explained.

"look bro just chill out you dont wanna stress out before a performance" he reminded me, he was right. I took a deep breath and we joined Drew in the wing. We layed down on the stage, as coreographed and began the performance. As the song was progressing I heard girls shout my name, i saw signs made, but for whatever reason all I could think about was her. She probably had a boyfriend and was popular now, she probably doesnt even remember me. But I guess I'll just learn to accept that and move on.

Faith's POV

I just stared at the TV in amazement. Keaton was on x-factor, with a million girls screaming his name. He looked so happy, I felt the tears roll down my cheeks. My thoughts were confirmed, he's fine without me, hes better than fine. He's famous. He's probably got a girlfriend and he's popular, and now hes not a skate rat. Im the one with no friends and no life all because of sasha. I even hate her name now, she ruined my life. But the worse part of all of this is he probably doesnt even remember my name.
