Chapter 2: Skatepark

"You're getting pretty good at that, CJ." Justin stated, watching Carmen roller blade around at the skate park.

Carmen stopped, almost falling over, and turned around to face him. "You scared me. How'd you get out of school?"

"Same as you. I left."

"You left Jack there…with our friends… He's gonna be totally fucked up by the time the day ends…"

"Yeah, probably…but atleast then he'd fit in better with our crew…"

"I liked him the way he was…" Carmen skated over to Justin, about an inch from his face. "Don't give any sex tips either…yours are horrendous…"

"How are you gonna find out if I do or not…? I have plenty of time before you sleep with him."

"Hey! I don't sleep with every guy I meet!"

"You slept with me the day after you first met me!"

"So! That's one guy!"

"Drake isn't a guy?"

"It was 3 months after I met him…" Carmen mumbled.

"What was that? I didn't hear you. Say that again."

"Shut up!" Carmen skated over to the bench to sit down and take off her skates.

"You really like him don't you?" Justin asked, seriously.

"Yeah, I do. So what?" Carmen said, nonchalantly.

"It's not like you to show emotion… I kinda figured… Since last time Josh told one of the new boys to stay away from you, you didn't make his face bleed."

"Well… He deserved it."

"Yeah…but you normally never show your violent side unless someone really pisses you off."

"Whatever. I'm hungry and school lets out soon, so I'll text Bev and tell her to grab the crew and meet us at Fusion?"

"Sounds good. Want me to walk ya home?"

"Why not!" Carmen said. She threw her backpack over her shoulder and picked up her skates.

-At the restaurant-

"So…? Answer my question! Do you like Jack or no!" Hailey screeched.

Jack was sitting right next to Carmen and she didn't want Jack to know she did like him so she kicked her sister in the leg, under the table, while sipping her milkshake.

"OW! What the frick was that for, Carm!" Hailey squealed.

"Do us all a favor and shut your big mouth! The only reason you're here is because I was supposed to watch you after school today, you don't fit in with my crew, you're just here. So stop trying to act like one of us and shut your face!" Carmen snapped.

"Um, Cam, that was a little harsh…" Jack tried to interject but Carmen had already shut everyone out.

"Jack, just let her go." Justin said. "She'll come back in a few minutes."

When they're food came, Carmen still hadn't said a word. She ate in silence.

"Cam, are you okay?" Justin asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just wanna go home." Carmen said, quietly.

"We were gonna go see a movie tonight, though. You still up for that?"

"Yeah. I'll meet you guys at the Skatepark around 6?"

"'Kay. See you then." Justin kissed the top of her head and let her take her sister and go home.

"Hailey, were leaving. Let's go." Carmen said, getting the whole table's attention.

"I don't wanna go yet!"

"Does it look like I give a fuck what you wanna do? No! So get your ass in the car and let's go!"

"Does she always treat her sister like that?" Jack whispered to Bev.

Bev just shook her head.
