Just an idea that's been in my head for weeks. There will be a second part to this titled, 'The Boy In Mismatched Socks.'

I'll get to requests later :p

Matt's POV:

Whenever I went to my favorite skate park during a Friday, he was always there. I could always tell who it was because of his smirk and his devil-horned hair. I used a yellow longboard while the boy used a black skateboard.

I knew that he loved skateboarding because of his shoes; black Vans. Vans are perfect for skateboarding because of how flat the bottom of the shoe is. For me, I just wear purple Converse shoes. I also like wearing mismatched socks, and I'm not exactly sure why.

Today is a Friday. I went to the skate park, seeing the boy I always see. He seemed to be practicing some tricks. What I thought was impressive about that was that he had a lollipop in his mouth while skating around. 'Isn't he scared that he might choke?'

He stopped skating and looked at me. I jumped when his gaze met mine, and he both just stared at each other. He broke the stare, hopping off of his skateboard and picking it up. He walked over to me and took the lollipop out of his mouth.

"Hey." He said simply, standing about four to five feet away from me. "H-hello!" Why did I stutter? "So, I see you here every week. What's your name?" "I'm Matt! What's yours?" "Tord." I took a mental note of that. I mean, I don't memorize things very well, but I can at least try.

"A longboard, huh?" I looked at the longboard I was holding and back at Tord. "Yeah, I like using a longboard. I'm just more... comfortable with it, I suppose." I paused and pointed at his shoes. "By the way, Vans are really cool." I added. I looked up at Tord to see that his cheeks were dusted in a red hue. "Ah, th-thanks. Converse is cool too." It was my turn to blush now. "Indubitably!" Tord chuckled and set his skateboard down.

"Well, I'm gonna hit the slopes. Talk to you later?" I set my longboard down and nodded. "Will do, Tord." Tord smiled, showing a gap where he had a missing tooth. He got onto his skateboard, and I saw that he uses his left foot. I use my right foot, which is called 'goofy boarding'.

He kick-started his skateboard and got on, adjusting the angle of his stance. 'Tord is honestly the coolest guy I've ever met, other than me. I'm always number one.' I got into a good position and kick-started my longboard. I didn't do tricks, I just rolled up and down the slopes. After a while of practicing my skills, I got off of my longboard and sat down on a park bench nearby.

From there, I could still see Tord doing kickflips and heelflips. I wished that I knew how to do those, but I have no clue. Plus, it would be easier to do those tricks with a smaller skateboard. I felt like I rested enough, so I stood up and hopped back onto my longboard.

'Maybe I'll get a purple skateboard to match my shoes.' I thought to myself.

I was about to hit a crack in the ground, so I did a chinese nollie to avoid it. I glanced at Tord and realized he was watching, and his eyebrows were raised. I tried to stay focused on my longboard, but it was hard when so many thoughts were coming into my head.

'Did he like that? Is he impressed? Was that cool? Does that count as a trick?'

I shook my head and made a sharp turn, just for practice. I jumped off of my longboard, letting it go into the grass nearby. 'Yeah, I should get a smaller skateboard. Not to impress Tord, of course!' My face reddened and I picked my longboard up. I held it over my shoulder and decided that I should go home.

Tord, however, was still skateboarding all over the park. He did the coolest trick I've ever seen in my life while I was watching him. He did a 360 flip and huffed, stopping his skateboard.

"Tord, you should teach me those tricks sometime!" I called out, and he looked at me. "Sure. It's easier with a smaller skateboard, though." "Yeah, I'll go buy one. See you next Friday!" "Bye." I left the skate park and took a walk back to my place. I contemplated about whether I should tell Edd or not. 'Whatever, I'll tell him. It's not a big deal... right?'
