The suburbs are really boring. There didn't seem like much to do, and everyone was cooped up inside their houses. Which, by the way, all looked the same! BORING! The only differences were the different shades of white, and beige, and the color of the doors.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I snapped a few random picture here and there, trying not to look like a creep. I found a playground, in the little wood area of the neighborhood, it didn't really seem like anyone went there.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I set my board down near the bench, and climbed on the set. The playground was really sad. It had some beaten up swings, and metal slide with tons of graffiti, and a dome type thing you climb on.
I went inside the climbing dome, and just sat criss cross, and laid down. After a few minutes I heard some people talking.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ashton's POV
"No Michael, it's E, C, D, then G, not E, C, G, then D," Luke said as we walked to the abandoned playground.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No one ever goes cause we made a rumour it was haunted or something, and now whenever we're not at Mike's house then we'll probably be here.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Yea, Michael come on battle of the bands is in 3 weeks, we gotta get it right," Cal said.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"We'll probably loose anyway," I said.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Gee Ash, thanks for having so much faith in us," Michael said with irritation.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've always been like that. A pessimist, I guess if you wanted to put a label on it. You'd think they'd be used to it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was gonna say some snarky comment back, but I noticed a long board near the bench.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Who's is that?" Luke asked noticing it too. We all went to go see if it was someone we knew.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"It's a pretty sick design," Calum said pick up the board.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Hey!" a voice yelled from behind us. We all turned around and a saw a girl with dark brown/blackish hair; with a camera around her neck. "Could you not touch my board?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
She's american.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Was the first thing I thought, and probably the rest of the guys.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Evangeline's POV
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Do you guys not speak English or something?" I asked the four boys standing in front of me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Oh, sorry," the boy with brown hair said handing me my board, "I'm Calum."
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Michael," the boy with obvious dyed hair, and green eyes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I'm Luke," the one with blond hair, and very blue eyes.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I waited for the last boy with blond hair, and green eyes to tell me his name, but he just stood there with his arms crossed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"That's Ashton," the boy named Calum said, "don't mind him it's his time of the month," he said pretending to whisper causing Ashton to punch him on his side. I couldn't help but slightly laugh.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I'm Evangeline, but you can call Eva," I said.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Where are you from?" Michael asked.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I'm from California,"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Cool so you're already used to the hot," he said.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Yea,"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ashton looked like he was about to say something, but my phone started to ring. It was my mom telling me to come home.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I have to go,it was cool meeting you guys, maybe I'll see you around," I said. They all said bye, except Ashton, and I left.
