Margie's P.O.V

Wind blowing through my hair. The Texas heat. Wheels against the hard, smooth sidewalk. Skating with my best friend, and new best friends i'll be living with soon in California. I am daydreaming about everything my life will be until JC says, “Guys, do you wanna stop at the park thats on the way to my house?” Everyone nods. JC skates to the front of the group and we all follow him to the park.

We get at the park in a matter of 5 minutes, Connor runs to the playground yelling, “Swingss!!!” We laugh at him as he jumps onto one of the swings belly first and starts swinging back and forth. Winnie and I smile at eachother eyeing the beach volleyball court in the middle of the park and start chasing eachother towards it, slipping our shoes off and jogging into the sand. We start passing the ball we found next to the net back and forth laughing when one hits it all the way off the court into the trees or when I do the fancy trick of hitting it with my head, only to have it come crashing down next to my feet.

After spending an hour at the park doing things including, JC, Connor, and Winnie trying to get Ricky and I to fit into the baby swings only to find us getting our asses stuck in them which was all a big laugh, climbing up the rock wall, and playing volleyball, we all end up collapsing on the grass.

Exhausted, I say “How about truth or dare, huh?” I get a reply full of yeses so we start playing. Winnie screams “I wanna go first! Okay, Margie. Truth or dare?” I think and decide, “Truth!” Winnie smirks, “Okay. What color underwear are you wearing right now?” I instantly blush when all three boys stare at me. I clear my throat, “I am wearing spongebob boxers, beat that bitch!” I snap in her face. Everyone starts laughing, and Ricky starts clutching his stomach and pretends to wipe a tear from his eye. “Girl, you've got sass!” Ricky says through his uncontrollable laughter. I wink at him then say, “Ricky! Truth or dare?” Almost automatically he says, “Dare, bitch!” I think until- AHA! “I dare you to skip around the playground singing the Barbie girl song the whole time!” He gets up and skips around the playground singing,

I'm a Barbie girl, in the Barbie world

Life in plastic, it's fantastic!

You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere

Imagination, life is your creation!

A few mothers with their toddlers stare at him while kids run around, one kid actually starts skipping next to Ricky, but it wasn't long until her mother came and pulled her away.

Back over at the circle where me and everyone else sits, we are all dying of laughter until Ricky comes and sits down. Catching his breath he asks, “Did you see that kid? I guess i'm not a good role model.” he pouts. Looking around the circle he says, “Connor! Truth or dare.” Connor leans back on his hands, “Dare!” He looks at Winnie, then back to Connor, “I dare you to put a lipstick in between your lips, writing 'Kiss Me' on her stomach.” pointing towards Winnie.

JC, who sits to my right, and I start laughing so hard when I reach into Winnie's bag. Grabbing the red lipstick, I toss it to Connor while Winnie lifts up her hi-low top to reveal her stomach, lying down in the middle of the circle while Connor hovers over her stomach, writing – or at least attempting writing kiss me. It ended up looking like a deranged cat instead of words which made JC and I laugh even harder. Ricky wasn't laughing, he was grinning but there was a tinge of what was it.. jealousy?

After a few more dares, we grab our penny boards and head back to JC's house. When we get there we are immediately greeted by Jaylyn and Joe-felix, each one grabbing onto one of JC's legs. He laughs,”Hey kids, didn't I just see you this morning?” They squeal as he shakes his legs trying to loosen their grip around his thighs as his mom comes in, looking at me and Winnie she says “Hello dears, I'm as my kids call me Mama Caylen. Nice to meet you girls. Now if you'll excuse me.” nodding to us “I'm going to take these kids to the movies and dinner. I'll be back in 3 hours, be good.” she says, kissing JC's cheek before heading out the door.

JC's P.O.V

Jaylyn and Joe-felix let go of my legs before stumbling out the door. I laugh, brushing off my jeans. Margie slip off her vans and ask “Hey JC, got any Arizona?” I look at her, giving her a weird look “Of course I have Arizona!” I laughs as I toss her a raspberry Arizona. Ricky and Connor collapse on the couch, turning on the TV, while Winnie goes to the restroom.

Margie pushes herself up onto the kitchen counter. I hop up next to her, leaning back on my palms, I say “So, tell me about yourself Margie.” She takes a sip of her Arizona before replying, “Well, my real names Margaret. You probably know already to never call me that.” She laughs, her laugh is so unique and her smile makes me smile back at her. “I'm turning 18 in a couple days, I have a little sister named Eden. My favorite type of music is hip hop and pop/rock, my favorite colors are bright green and black. I love teen romance books, and just romance books in general.” She blushes at the last part, “What about you?” she asks. “I want to know, why are you moving to Cali? For real I mean.” I say cautiously. She takes her time answering. “Well, my parents divorced when I was 14. My mom cheated on my dad, I hated her when dad left because I thought it was all her fault. Then after almost 4 years, my dad comes to my house with no hint whatsoever that he was coming, and my mom tells him to leave. I got so mad because I couldn't let her make him leave again.” She looks back at me. “Then I yelled at her telling her that it was all her fault from keeping us from him. Then she told me to leave, so I did.” She lets out a big sigh, like something was lifted off her shoulders.

I knew she was hiding something. I understood everything that she was feeling. My hand reaches and touches the small of her back. “If you want to talk, or anything. Or if you need to vent. I'm here.” I say. She smiles weakly back “Thanks, JC.”
