I know it was kind of lame of me showing up to a little kids party, but to be honest I don't give two shits about what anybody thinks or says. At least I wasn't the only one, I had porch boy and Marcus.

Speaking of porch boy, I may have eavesdropped on a conversation he was having with his mother, and apparently his name is Calvin.

Everybody left the table to go skate and it was just Calvin, his mother and I. I didn't notice until his mom nudged me and said," Aren't you going to go skate."

I looked up at her with my face red," Uh ... yeah. I was just -  ... " I lost my words looking into the eyes of Calvin. Those were literally the bluest things I had ever seen. I also just noticed how much his hair looked like Niall from One Direction. Not the new style in the ' You & I ' video , more like the one in the ' One Thing ' video.

Yeah I like One Direction ... so?

I stopped my thoughts when I noticed I was still sitting with them. I coughed and said," I'm going to go now .. "

I then rushed from the table to where the gave you the skates," 9.5 , please." The woman nodded and went over to my size and handed me the skates.

I quickly put them on and tried them out. I wasn't the worse skater but I wasn't the best. I know how to not fall but sometimes people decide ' hey lets get in the way of that kid so he falls ' and I just fall flat on my face.

I skated over to my brother and he just stands by a soda machine looking at people," Need something little brother?"

"Yeah. Somebody to skate with. I don't want to go out there alone."

"Grow up! You are sixteen. Just go skate." He tells me.

I nod and look over to Calvin and his mom. I can see her lips moving talking to him but he just looks right at me, nodding at whatever she is saying.

"Yeah - Yeah. I'll go." I tell him making my way out onto the skating floor.

Music starts playing and the lights go off with disco lights shinning from the ceiling as everybody skates. The song they are playing is from 2008, so I am assuming all their music is old, which means this won't be as fun.

I glide past people, some on the floor from falling, and I go around the floor in a big circle until I reach the exit part. To my surprise Calvin is watching me from there. So I can't exit now .. what if he talks to me?

' What if he talks to me ' ?!? Marcus is right. It's time to grow up.

I skate over to the exit where he stands and I try to move past him but he won't move.

"Excuse me." I tell him, trying to sound nice.

"I don't appreciate you looking at me all the time." He says with a stern look. Is he fucking kidding me right now?

"Are you fucking kidding me right now?" I ask before I can think," Every time I turn around, there you are looking at me."

"You're right." He says moving closer to me," I guess you are just fun to look at."

I don't know why, maybe it's the way we are so close to each other, but I am suddenly really hot.

We exchange a few more looks then I go into the bathroom, with my roller skates still on.

I glide over to the sink to splash my face off with cold water. I look myself in the mirror and think about different things. Mainly my father.

I still will never forgive him. I haven't told anybody but Gruncle Joe and my mother but my mom didn't believe me and she sent me to counseling for two months.
