"Wakey wakey chicken bakey!" Ughhhhh morning already? "5 more minutes" I don't think that's gonna happen. "I'm sorry, but I just simply cannot allow it!" Don't pull back the sheets! It's cold now! "C'mon, it's Saturday!" I just want to be lazy today. "We are going to have a fun day, but you need to get up first" You always win. "Fine, just give me a minute" A girl needs her privacy. "Ok, your breakfast will be waiting for you!" Mmmm, breakfast.

"Good morning Skylar dear" She's very polite. "Morning" Oooo! How did she know I loved French toast! "Finally up sleepy head?" Ugh, I don't feel like it. "I don't want to be, but yes, I am awake" I love that death glare of his. "Well hurry up! I have a fun day planned out, but it's not going to happen if we stay here!" I can't help but smile. "Ok, ok, I'll be done in a minute" I finish my breakfast and go to get properly dressed at my condo.

Should I wear a dress? Or jeans? Shorts? Skirt? Skort? Short sleeve? Long sleeve? Tank top? This is the problem of being a girl! I finally decide on jeans and short sleeved shirt. I think I look cute in them. Now to brush my hair. What hairstyle? Ugh, I'll just brush it and leave it down.

I then I head out to find Preston standing next to his bike, and another one. Did he invite his brother? "Hop on Sky!" Was that bike for me? Awww how sweet! "Ok, where are we going?" I skillfully jump on the the bike, without making it fall. Did I mention that I'm an expert at bike tricks? "Well, before you showed off, we were going to ride around town. But since you're so skilled, we might just have to stop by the skate park" Sounds great. "Why, that would be just lovely, can I grab something real quick?" I have something very special in mind. "Sure, just be quick" I quickly head inside to grab my skate bag.We then head down the road, today seemed like the perfect day to ride bikes. The wind blowing in my hair also made me feel cool.

"This is our first stop" How did I know. James Foster Ice Cream Parlor. "I love ice cream" Especially over here. "Doesn't everyone?" Omg! When he smirks his dimples show! Can you get any cuter than that Preston? He probably can. "What flavor do you want?" I love so many flavors! How can I decide?! "Ummm... Vanilla" Ahhh classic vanilla. "Really? I expected you to pick something crazy like smurf flavor" There is a smurf flavor?! "Well, today seemed like a vanilla day" He laughs so hard at the littlest things. "I'll have vanilla too then" How cute.

We go over to a picnic bench to eat our ice cream. "You got something on your nose" Really? Where? "I don't fee-" He reaches over and dabs my nose with ice cream. "Hey!" I can't stay mad at him for long, within seconds me and him are laughing uncontrollably. "You totally fell for it!" Our faces are priceless. "You got something too!" I bend over and put a dot of ice cream on his cheek. We can't even say anything we're laughing so much. Once we finish our fits of laughter and our ice cream, we hop back on the bikes and go down evergreen road.

"Next stop!" Cool! Skate parks are always fun! "Race you to the half pipe!" I pedal really fast so I get a head start. Yes! I won! "Hey! You got a head start!" He's not really annoyed, he's just being sarcastic. "I'm sorry, can I make it up to you?" I love it when I make him blush. "U-um maybe later" He's so cute, I can't contain myself! "I'm gonna do some tricks, how long are we gonna be here?" I hope longer than the ice cream visit. "Hour and a half" Yesss! I pedal over to the side, grabbing my skate bag and pulling out my skateboard. "Woah, I didn't know you had a skateboard!" Yeah, I'm just cool like that. "Oh it's no biggy" I go to the top of the half pipe, and signal everyone to get out of my way. "Timber!!!" I glide down the hardwood and do a 450 once I reach the end of pipe. I skillfully stop and wait for the applause. "Daaanng girl!" "You can do better than me!" "Pfft show off..." Hey! That last one wasn't very nice! I walk over to the boy who said that, and punch him in the face, sending him flying. "Ooooooo!" I walk away before he curses at me. "C'mon, I know a better skate park!" Preston has his eyes wide opened, but gets on the bike and we head off towards my favorite skate park.

After 2 more hours of doing amazing tricks, me and Preston get on our bikes. "Do we go home now?" It's getting towards sunset. I didn't think time would fly by so quickly! "Nope, just one more stop" Ok then... Preston leads me down a dirt trail, and he stops when the trail ends. "C'mon, follow me" I follow him through the shrubbery, and we find a beautiful lake. "Let's sit" Wow, this is remarkable. "The sunset is absolutely gorgeous" Preston looks over at me. "You remember when you said at the skate park that you'd make it up to me?" Oh yeah, I kinda forgot about that. "Uh huh" I meet his gaze, and he looks very serious. "Well, I'd like to use that now" Even when the sunset is covering our faces with color, I can still see him blushing. "Ok" He softly grabs my hand and leans in. I close my eyes and wait. Once we collide, I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. It was only 2 seconds before it was over, but it was so glorious. We both open our eyes, and before he could say anything, I playfully pushed him in the lake.

"Well, great way to ruin the mood!" I couldn't hear him over my laughter, and he soon joined me. "Here, I'll help you out" I reach my hand out for him, only to be pulled in the water. "I guess I deserved that" We both start our laughing fit again as we climb out of the lake. We both lay down on the dirt ground and stare at the stars, pointing out the consolations. "There is the Big Dipper" I point towards the sky. "Where?" I can see he's really interested in learning about the stars. "Come here" I grab his arm and point towards the consolation. "Ohh" His eyes sparkle and light up as I show him where the stars align. "Well, I had a great time with you Sky" I had a lot more fun than I ever had in my entire life. "Me too" We both get up and get on our bike and head for his home. Man, today was the best day ever.
