All. I. AM. - Tom Schaar

Chapter 6

It's 6:30 am. I'm sitting on Tom's bed, starring down at his sleeping figure, spralled out on the carpeted floor. A baby blue blanket was carlessly thrown on top of him, a pillow underneath his head. There is a slight smile playing at my lips as i watch his chest rise and fall, and the drool leaking out from his mouth and onto the pillow. His hair is all over the place, thrown in all sorts of different directions.

Despite the drool dripping from his mouth, he looks hot. But than again, he always does.

I should go.

I shoved the comforter off of me and shuffled out of his bed. I grab my clothes from yesterday off of his bed and tiptoe around him, trying my hardest not to wake him up. I enter his bathroom and shut the door behind me, locking it. I quickly strip free from the grey, baggy t-shirt and the basketball shorts he let me wear. I slip back into my clothes and make myself look as presentable as I can before exiting the bathroom. I grab my skateboard from where it is leaning up against the wall and slowly open the his bedroom door.

I tiptoe through his house, down the stairs, and before Iknow it i reach the front door. I unlock it and whip it open, stepping out and into the cold morning air. I quietly shut the door behind me and hop down the front steps, landing on the paved driveway. I drop my skateboard to the ground and hop on it.

I pull out my phone from the back pocket of my jeans and send a quick text to Tom.

To: Tom | Sent: 6:48 am
Thanks for letting me stay the night :)

I press send and flip my phone shut, shoving it back into my jeans pocket.

I walk up the stairs to KTR and swing the doors open. Not much people here. I walk over to the front desk where Darcy sits, typing away on her computer. I let out a sigh as i lean on her desk, dinging the bell. Her head snaps up in surprise and she raises an eyebrow at me.

"Hey." I yawn.

"Aren't you suppose to be at school?" She asks, her eyebrow still raised.

"Yes, but I'm not going."

"Why?"

I sigh, "It's been a rough couple of days, can you please leave the questions to a minimun?"

She nods, "Yeah."

I smile, "Thank you."

"Um, Jett's here." She says, going back to typing on her computer, her eyes shooting back and forth across the screen.

"Really?" I ask, looking around. "Where?"

"He's helping his girlfriend out at the giftshop, she works today."

My head snaps in her direction, "He has a girlfriend? Since when?"

She bites her lip, "Um, I think they've been dating for seven or eight months now."

I nod, "Cool, i'm going to find him."

"Okay," She nods, offering me one last smile. "I hope you have a nice day."

I smile, "You too."

And with that, I spin around and begin my short journey to the girfshop. As i do, I scan the skateparks and the parkour training course. I find myself really wanting to try the Desert Bowl and the mini ramps and spin course and remind myself i have to come back some other time when my arms is better. When i finally make it to the giftshop I instantly spot Jett and his girlfriend unpacking the new order of merch we got and folding them.

From what i can tell she has straight dark brown hair and is short. Maybe around 5'2. She has light skin and freckles, not very many though. As i get a bit closer both of their heads snap in my direction. I notice she has light brown eyes. Wow, she is beautiful.
