Camp Charming

Skateboards and sneaky kisses

"So since we have a free day today, Drew had the idea that we should all spend time together at the skatepark." Charlie says as Vincent and Trent high five happily and Brittany blows a bubble with a bored expression. 

   "That's going to be awesome!" Vincent says and scoots towards me smiling slightly. "I can show you some cool moves, if ya wanna?" He says and Charlie pushes him back with his hand against his face. "HEY!"

"Knock it off Vincent." Charlie says and smiles at me. "Now, lets head out!" He calls over the group as Patricia looks at me.

"Do I have to go?" She says folding her arms over her black long sleeve shirt.

"Shouldn't you like skateboard guys?" I ask and she rolls her eyes walking with the others as Opal smiles at me. "Hello Opal."

"I don't entirely know how to skate so I was wondering if I could just sit this one out and possibly take notes on the formula on how their bodies are so I can be able to skate some time later on?" She says staring at me as I blink a little and nod.

   "As long as you stay with the group." I state and she nods as she hurried ahead and Charlie scoots in beside me. "Hello."

   "Hey." He says and we follow the campers up the hill and when they disappear around the corner he quickly wraps his arms around me and kisses me. I gasp as I kiss him back, and he sighs pulling back. "Sorry, but I couldn't help myself."

"It's okay..." I whisper and he smiles as I pull away and clear my throat. "Common, we have to go."

"Ugh, fine." He whispers and kisses my cheek as we walk up the hill and look over the skatepark. It has grown immensely in size and I smile and lean over elbowing him. "Hm? What's up?"

"I need your skateboard." I say and his eyes widen as he smiles gently. "What?"

"Nothing, just find you completely beautiful." He whispers and I look over at him as he stares down at me. "Please tell me you'll be carful in the skateboard."

"I'll try!" I call as I run forward and he laughs hurrying after me. He walks into the little office and grab his board as I put on some padding. "I'm ready!" I cheer as I reach out for it and he holds it away. "Awe, what is it?"

   "Promise you will be careful." He says and I look at him as he lowers his gaze. "Seriously Drew."

   "I promise!" I say as he nods and hands me the board as I smile and take off on it as he takes a seat. "Ahhh! I feel so alive!"

   "Whoa, I didn't know you could skate!" Lucas says as he skates alongside me with a smile. "You're actually pretty good too!"

   "Thank you!" I say and push forward as he cheers out and I turn the board looking over to where Charlie sits. I wave at him and he waves back with a big smile. I push forward speeding up and make my way towards the ramp. I kick up off the board and grab it making my way up the ramp as Vincent and Lucas skate to the bottom looking towards me.

"Don't break anything!" Vincent shouts and lets out a laugh as Lucas shakes his head and looks up towards me.

"Do be careful!" He calls as I nod and look down the ramp.

It's steep, really steep, and I lean over slightly, my heart jumps to my throat as I take a deep breath and straighten my helmet. I push down on the board and it surges forward and down the ramp, I maintain my balance and kick forward kick flipping over a rail. I hear a shout behind me and glance back to see Vincent and Lucas cheering as I laugh and zoom by where Charlie is. I look over, but he isn't there and I begin to slow down looking around.

   I look around the park and find no sign of Charlie anywhere and I bite my lip. He must have went to the bathroom. I skate by and decide to do a round around the park. I skate slowly, and within a few minutes, I'm back to where Charlie had been sitting. Still gone.

   "Where did he take off too..." I mumble as skate over to see Opal writing vigorously in her notebook. Brittany sits by a guy who works at the camp, batting her eyelashes and puckering her lips. Rolling my eyes, the fall on Patricia who sits in a group of punk rock looking guys, about 7 different piercings in their faces alone. Maddie sits reading a book quietly in the corner as the boys seem scattered around in the skatepark on boards or skates. Charlie however is no where to be found. "Hmm..."

"What's with the long face?" I turn as Charlie skates around me in a circle. "Ya know, I can show ya a few tricks." He says making a strange voice and I snicker.

"Really now? I don't think my boyfriend would like that very much." I say as he stops and leans forward winking.

"We don't need to tell 'em." He says and I shake my head as he nods towards Trent. "He let me borrow his board."

"I see!" I smile as I skate forward and he follows beside me. "You going to go down the half pipe?"

"Would that impress you?" He asks and I shrug slightly as he wiggles his eyebrows.

"It might." I whisper and he nods firmly skating towards the half pipe quickly and I follow in pursuit.

   He climbs up and holds out his hand towards me pulling me up with him. We watch as a campers glides along the half pipe with ease and a few guys talk to Charlie. He chats with them as I watch the guy hop off on the other side and him and his buddies high five. I look over at Charlie who is still distracted and out my board on the edge and lean forward gliding down. A shout rings out from the guys on the other side and I hear Charlie call my name as I glide to the other side and do a stop at the top before kicking back and going back down. I blow the bangs from my eyes and continue on and someone else whizzes by me. I look over and see Charlie skating on the half pipe too.

   "Trying to be cool?" He says as he goes by and I turn over my shoulder as he glides up the side and does a trick before going back down. "Beat that."

   "Fine." I call as I push forward and skate up the side and flip up onto my hands on the edge and fall back landing onto the board and cheers ring out as Charlie passes by and does the same trick I had done. "How original!" I shout and he lets out a laugh as I skate by and do another trick.

   Back and forth we go, until sweat beads down both of our foreheads. People begin to crowd around as we pass by each other, each time just a centimeter closer to hitting, until-

*BAM!*

   My body flies up in the air and I close my eyes bracing myself for the hard hit. Instead, I land on something soft and gentle. Groaning, I look up and Charlie lays there, eyes closed and head tilted to the side like he is completely knocked out.

   "CHARLIE!" I shout and lean forward listening to his breathing. "Thank god it's even!" I say and go to stand but feel and arm wrapped tightly around me, when I look back down, Charlie is looking at me with a smug smile. "The hell..."

   He closes his eyes to act like he's passed out once again as people begin to crowd around wondering if we are alright. A few minutes pass, and he jerks his head up and pretends to slam it into mine, and presses his lips quickly to mine. No one even notices as they pull me back quickly to make sure my head is okay and they help us stand.

   When I look over to where Charlie is being examined, I see him looking towards me. He smiles slightly and sticks his tongue out like a child and I can't help but smile.
