I have no spare time so I though "Hey, lets start a story on fanfic?" I'll update when I find time, like now, which is the time I should be sleeping.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of characters in this chapter. Canada does.
You know when your friends mean well, but they just don't help you at all? In fact whatever they are saying makes you feel a thousand times worse? Today was, without a doubt, one of those days. I knew that Catlin really wanted me too feel better, but talking about how hot some random guy is, Clearly wasn't going to help me forget about my messy breakup with my last boyfriend. I stared at the masses of people walking aimlessly through the wings of the mall, not really shopping just hanging out. By now the arcade has to be packed, as well as the movie theater.
"I guess you don't want to here about him, but he was totally checking me out." She continued. "but I think he was with another girl, so that might get in the way but I..." I tuned her out and rested my head on the rarely cleaned table. I was usually so upbeat and positive, but today was just to depressing. I lost a job and a boyfriend today. I mean the loosing a job thing wasn't to weird, but I don't ever lose boyfriends (and in the past girlfriends). I dump people, people don't dump me.
"Hey Catlin I think I'm gonna head home, todays just been pretty messed up." I went to stand up when Stanley pushed my chair against my legs and I fell back in the chair. "or not" I groaned laying my head back on the dirty table sighing.
"Aww, Jonsey, you were too good for, uh what was his name."
"I couldn't remember, thats why he dumped me!" I yelled then slammed my head back onto the table. So maybe it was my fault, but I was still pissed. I looked up at the small bit you could see through the opening, to the next level of the mall. This was a game I made up when I got bored one day working in the food court. You could choose what you wanted people to look like on the top half, if you could only see their bottom half. A person in tight jeans with chucks? Top half is tight shirt and dyed or at least teased hair. Baggy sweats that say tasty on the butt? Lose tee and hair long and straight or pulled back. A guy in board shorts and sneakers with socks coming up over the ankle? Probably really ugl-. Just as the thought went through the guy bent down and started to tie his shoe. He had the softest looking face and perfect blond hair. Caitlin stopped her rambling to look at what I was staring at.
"Wow that guy is cute" she said. I nodded and continued staring. He probably wouldn't notice. Who am I kidding, a guy that hot, there's no way he's not straight. I looked back to Caitlin as she continued to talk "I wonder if sometime he'd want to go with me-" she paused and cocked her head. "Oh no never mind, he's wearing a rainbow belt." My head shot over to look at him. His shirt had barely risen up enough to catch the bit of color on the belt, but is was undeniably rainbow. I sighed.
"Man I wish today was going better for me, I'd take a shot" I looked down at the table. I guess my confidence was just wearing out today.
"Yeah thats right your gay, you should take a shot" she exclaimed, like that wasn't what I was already thinking about. "Come on, Jonesy, this could be the little upper your day needs." I shook my head and looked back over to the guy who seemed to be losing a battle with his shoe laces. His face looked so concentrated but every few moments he'd sigh and start over. He shook his head and looked down at the food court and we made eye contact. He smiled really big and ran, or what looked a bit more like glided, in the direction of the escalator.
"I think he saw you" Caitlin said. I looked over to the escalator and heard a bunch of people yelling then he came flying down it on his skateboard. The speed he picked up from the escalator must have been too much though, because he flew right past Caitlin and me, and landed in the Chinese place. Ron the mall cop picked him up and dragged him off to his station. I slumped in my chair and sighed, as Caitlin stared at the scene, mouth agape.
"Wow, you really can't catch a break today, can you?"
