A/N: Hey guys! It's been a while since I've updated this story. I actually wrote the next couple chapters in my notebook, and am transferring them into the computer. I didn't realize how short they were, so i'm putting two of my little chapters in to form one big one! Just a reminder, the bold is a voice inside her head that is kinda a downer, while the other is a very happy go lucky voice, which is in italics.


"Yo, Lennon." I threw open the doors at the exact moment Jared came running up to me, throwing his overly huge arm over my shoulders and guiding me towards the table. "Guess what I just decided?"

Glancing up at him quickly, I sighed drastically.

Brace yourself.

This friggin idiot…

"What is it that you decided, love?" Giggling gently I shook my head at the question. Why must I prompt him so?

"You're hittin the park with us after school."

"What else would I do?" I laughed, sliding into the seat next to him, Paul quickly snagging the one to my right.

DON'T LOOK NOW BUT GUESS WHO'S NEXT TO US!

Look now. Go ahead. I dare ya.

"I also decided that we're having a party at your house." A sly grin crept up on his face.

WOOO PARTY AT OUR PLACE!

No. Absolutely not.

"Just cause Sue, Harry and bitchface are gone for the week, doesn't mean Seth's gonna be up for it." I argued, shaking my head at the overly excited boy next to me.

"It's Seth." They said together, looking at me as if I was nuts.

"Fine. But you guys are cleanin up after yourselves." I glared at Tripp who plopped down across from me.

"What'd I do…?" His mouth formed a small 'o' as her starred at me, wide eyed.

"This has 'Tripp's idea' written all over it."

He mocked shock for a second, "OF COURSE ITS NOT MY IDEA…..what are we talking about?"

"The party at my place tonight."

He nodded in understanding, shoving a bite of pizza in his mouth before signaling for me to wait a minute.

That fat little-

PPIIIIZZZZZZZZAAAAA~

"We have friends?"

I giggled hysterically at his comment; Tripp was honestly the highlight of my day. Bad jokes were kinda his thing. I guess it just came naturally after he was nick named Tripp. Ya know, the whole falling off your skateboard every two seconds wasn't one of his best moments.

"Apparently."


It seemed that no matter how cold it was, or how much water fell from the heavens, our skate park was always the perfect place to be. When you were here, it didn't matter what your grade in math was, or how you were gonna feed yourself for the next two weeks, even what your plans were for the weekend. All that mattered was you and your board. Nothing else.

Nothing.

I'm sure there's someth-

No.

I looked around the park, spotting Paul and Jared trying to see who could go the quickest on the ramp, while Tripp road Ozzy, with my permission, on anything that wasn't grass.

Giggling from where I sat on one of the lower branches of the tree, I kicked my feet lightly and threw my head back to the breeze.

..shouldn't we be down with the others…?

We're too good for the others.

Keep telling yourself…I mean, myself…I mean….just, keep telling that.

Shit.

"Ya alright up there, Lenny?"

I glanced down at Paul as he stood just below my branch.

LOOK WE'RE TALLER THAN HIM!

A lil.

Still, he was shorter than me…for once.

"Just peachy, love." I grinned, swinging down lightly and smiling up at him.

"Good."

What does he mean by that? WHAT DOES HE MEAN BY THAT!

I give up on you.

Giggling softly, I rolled my eyes and turned my head to the ground where I dug my black converse clad feet into the dirt.

"Hey." His hot fingers grabbed under my chin, pulling my face up to look into his eyes. My heart stopped. We just…starred for a minute. Our eyes barring into each other for a minute before he pulled me in closer.

HESGONNAKISSUS!HESGONNAKISSUS!

Calm down man, it's not that exciting. It's just Paul.

JUST PAUL!

I pressed my eyes closed roughly as he tilted my head up to meet his lips. It was simple. Gentle. Ordinary.

Just like I imagined it to be, but…so much more.

SSSQQQUUUUEEEEEAAAALLLLLLL!

Your mom.

Okay Lennon. Don't freak out. Act cool. You were totally expecting that. It was nothing. It was-

HOLY SHIT DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT!

HE KIIISSSSEEEDDDD USSSS!

Cough, cough. Excuse me, I think he kissed ME.

"Uhm." He did this adorable little cough thing, like he was embarrassed with himself or something. Maybe it was because I didn't really react to it at all. "We should, uh, probably get going back to your place now, huh?" He smiled down at me, his eyes practically glowing.

"Yeah."
