Chapter 13: Fake

Towntrap watched as Golden went to race against Bonnie in the park. Town wondered why Golden didn't like Eak....... Or at least, it looked like he didn't. Towntrap was really curious about it, 'cause everyone he's met until now seemed to like Eak. Including him, he thought Eak was awesome! But maybe Golden just needed to warm up to him, and if they'd ride to Bonnie's house together, surely that would work!

"Hey, Town, you wanna try on my roller skates?" Chica strangely teasingly asked the ginger as she slowly approached him.

"Hmm, what's with that mischievous tone?" Towntrap raised an amused eyebrow at the blonde girl.

"Oh, no reason! Just thought you might wanna try them out." Chica said, blowing an innocent whistle.

"Sure, I'd love to try!" Towntrap carefully helped Chica out of her skates.

Chica quietly nudged Freddy to stand next to her.

"He's gonna try on my roller skates, but I bet he's an amateur!" Chica snickered to the brunette, unaware of the fact that Towntrap could easily hear her.

"Yooo aren't your new skates, like, super slippery?" Freddy was just as unaware as Chica was.

"Hell yes they are!" Chica quietly giggled to herself as Town finished putting on the skates.

"Whoa!" Towntrap cried out as he nearly fell backwards.

Dang, those were some slippery skates....... Freddy and Chica were trying not to laugh while Eak merely watched his tall friend with interest.

Hah, unknown to them Towntrap could actually skate super well!

Towntrap casually did a jump with the skates and a little spin as well. Town smiled as the thrill of skating came back to him after having missed it for a long time. Plus, the looks on Freddy's and Chica's faces were priceless.

"Whoo, you go Carnal!" Even Eak looked impressed.

"Pfft, it's just a basics thing!" Town scratched his cheek a bit flustered.

"You know how to skate??" Chica looked flabbergasted.

"A little bit. Nothing too impressive......." Towntrap coolly replied.

"Haha, I bet I could skate even better than all three of you combined!" Eak boldly threw out.

As Chica, Freddy and Towntrap's eyes turned to Eak in disbelief, the Mexican started to re-consider what he just said. Alright, maybe it was a stupid idea to challenge a bunch of hard-core skaters when he could barely ride a bike.......

"Oh yeah? Why don't you prove it to us, then?" Chica gave Eak a competitive smile.

Ay, never mind. Eak just found a decent excuse that was actually true!

"Well, you know I'd love to, but I haven't had breakfast yet and my parents are gonna wake up in about-now. So my ass is to be expected at home!" Eak shrugged in an over dramatic way and let out a painfully fake-sounding sigh of disappointment.

"Uh-huh." Freddy snorted a bit at the lame statement.

"Oh, shucks! Why is God against me in this tryin' time?? Anyways, I'd better head on home. I'll see you lads at Bonnie's house!" Eak finger-gunned his friends and started heading towards the hole.

On the way to the exit, Eak came across Fox. Hell, during the day Fox managed to look even more exhausted....... Those bags were darker than the night.

"Hey, man, when you pick up the lamp tonight, just, uh, be careful, aight? He doesn't really trust people that easily so it wouldn't be good if you, y'know, accidentally dropped him off your bike." Fox let out a laugh, but it sounded rather hollow in Eak's ears.
