A/N: I felt so bad about not updating in a really long time that I decided to do a double update. It's from Emma's P.O.V. this time which is kind of interesting because it won't happen very often. There are alot of inside jokes in here so sorry if it seems like some parts don't make sense. I will definitely try working on updating again by next week. Here is Chapter 4 of Hey Skater Boy :)

 Emma's P.O.V

 A lot of people think I am the pretty one between Anna and I. At least I know my boyfriend Dan thinks so. But to be honest Anna is the most beautiful and strong person I know. She has gone through so much and she is only sixteen; I could never go through what she has gone through and still be as happy as she is. She has this sense of confidence around her all the time and that’s why everyone wants to be her friend, but because of my big boobs I’m the one that stands out.

When I found out she had gotten a concussion from the fall, I couldn’t help but feel it was my fault. Now I sometimes feel like I need to help her with how overprotective her mom has become. So when she called me to tell me she needed my help into smooth-talking her mom in to letting us go outside, I knew I would need to convince Mrs. Brown to let us. Over the years Mrs. Brown and I have become very close. I still remember the time she took me out shopping without Anna and how mad Anna got at us afterwards. Mrs. Brown sees me as her other daughter in a way, so convincing her to let Anna and I go outside shouldn’t be hard; I’ll just ask her if Anna and I can paint in the front yard.

------------------------------

 “Emma I just do not see how going out front is a good idea.”

 “Please Mrs. Brown, you know how your husband feels about his garden in the back, and we wouldn’t want to risk getting paint on any of his flowers.”

“You know what Emma now that I think about it you’re right! We will see you this weekend.”

“Great Mrs. Brown see you then!” Wow I knew I would be able to convince Anna’s mom to let us go out front, but I didn’t know it would be this easy. Anna wouldn’t tell me why exactly she wants to go out front, but I know it must be important to her if she asked me to do the convincing.

-----------------------------

“So why exactly am I here and why exactly did I have to convince your mom she could do her grocery shopping now?”

“So you remember the Johnsons?”

 “How could I forget them? They gave me cookies all the time.”

“Well anyway, we are out here because the family that moved in happens to have a son our age named Austin.”

“I still don’t get why I had to convince your mom to leave the house though?”

“Yeah well the problem is he rides a skateboard.”

It all makes sense now as to why I had to convince Mrs. Brown out of the house. If Anna talks to him and her mom finds out Anna would be in trouble, but I can only imagine what would happen if Anna decides to take an interest in this Austin boy. I could only lie to Mrs. Brown for so long before she gets me to tell her the truth. “Anna I don’t think this is-”

“Emma I’m not saying we are going to try starting anything, but if he happens to come outside I want to talk to him.”

“Ok fine, but we need to start painting so your mom thinks we were actually doing something productive.”
