This is part two of Driveway Skatepark. Goodness gracious, only a few more chapters to go before we get into season 4, and you know what that means. No spoilers though, I have some evil things planned. but for now, just read on as Bam, Dunn, and Ollie meet up with Compton Ass Terry, and fetch more memorbilia.
Chapter 8: I Got You, For Now At Least.
Talk is cheap but I can't afford it,
Countin' sheep don't work anymore,
My head is turnin' in circles,
But I got you, I got you.
~Bowling For Soup, I Gotchoo
Bam's POV:
At this point, it didn't even feel like Jenn and I were together. Everytime I saw Ollie smile, my heart melted and the whole world didn't seem to matter anymore.
Even I didn't know why Jenn and I were still technically together. Everyone seemed to be getting really irritated with the way she treated Ollie, and so was I. I'd known Ollie longer than Jenn, and I've like Ollie more than Jenn for just as long.
Was I worried what Jenn would say?
Hell no, I'd never given a shit about what Jenn had to say, even when I was in love with her.
Was I worried that maybe Ollie wouldn't want to be with me?
Maybe. But thats because I cared about what Ollie said, and what would I do if Ollie did end up not wanting to be with me? Then I would have left Jenn, and been alone.
I didn't want to worry about it yet. Dunn said I should wait a while and I would, it was just that... I felt so lost. I hated it when my brain turned circles, especially when I was supposed to be relaxed and having fun.
Everytime my brain did this stuff though, I just remembered that I had Ollie. Right there by my side, just as she'd been this whole trip to California, with the sun making her black hair look navy blue and a huge smile on her face.
Yeah, I thought to myself. I got her.
And was Ollie ever excited about going to see Compton ass.
Her excitement quickly bubbled into fear though, as she looked at our surroundings. She shrunk back beside Novak, whom we had picked up a few hours ago.
Ollie hated being in the Ghetto.
"God," I groaned. "Should I just turn around?" I was scared too.
"Well are you gonna get out to go check it out?" Dunn asked.
"You gotta come with me!" I argued.
"No, I'll just stay here and make sure the car doesn't get stolen." Dunn shook his head.
"No, no." I said matter-of-factly. "If I'm gettin' shot, you're gettin' shot also. You too Ollie." I looked back at her.
Her eyes grew wide and began to tear up.
"Ah, don't sweat it Ollie. We won't get shot. Novak will be your personal bulletproof vest." I reassured her, but getting a protest from Novak.
"Shut up, dude." I told him, rolling my eyes.
We came up to Compton Ass's house, and he and some of his homeboys were sitting on the steps of the front porch.
"Hey!" He yelled at sight of us. "Check these fools out!"
"Great, he's rocking a bulletproof vest." Ollie groaned.
They patted us down as a joke, but Ollie looked legit terrified. She loved Compton ass, but definitly wasn't a fan of his hood.
Compton had connections with "the peoples, who know peoples, who got next to them peoples." and managed to help us get a signed hat from N.E.R.D, and Pharell called up Bishop Don Magic Juan a.k.a super pimp, who got us some of Snoop Dogg's sneakers.
Ollie's feet started to hurt from all the walking we were doing, so I gave her a piggy back ride back to the car. Compton and Dunn were talking so we beat them there.
"Hey Bam?" Ollie asked, and my attention was immeadiatly all hers.
"Yeah?" I asked in a gentle voice.
"Um... Nevermind." She looked down, because Dunn and Compton ass had finally gotten to the car.
"Just tell me later, ok?" I said, and she nodded.
I got a call from Rake, who'd finally gotten Vito's ass to the playboy mansion, requesting that we meet them there to help them keep Vito out of Jail.
We got to the playboy mansion and I got us in. I just bullshitted a password and they let me in because they knew who I was. Ollie wasn't impressed with the place. She didn't like Hugh Hefner and strongly disliked the Bunnies. Not out of jealously, just with pure disgust for what they do. She didn't really even stick around for Vito's assinine behavior or me getting a little black book signed by the Heff himself. She simply just went back to the car, totally unamused.
I felt bad, but hey, it was another adition to the driveway.
We met up with Ape and Phil at Toi resturaunt, another Ollie reccomendation.
Oh, and Jenn was there too.
Ape and Phil got some of Adam Sandler's golf balls, and Jenn got zilch. It was so funny and adorable to listen and watch as Ollie recounted the story of how Tommy Lee kissed her hand like a gentleman and gave her a hug, and called her 'Darlin'. Talking about how she almost fainted. Jenn scoffed, as if she didn't believe her, but Ape fangirled just as much as Ollie was.
We brought Compton Ass and Novak back to West Chester to skate with us, and once again, Ollie wanted to ride in with Phil, Ape, and Vito. It was honestly starting to piss me off, how Jenn could drive her away so easily. And the smug look on Jenn's face when Ollie got into the other car set off my anger, and I just looked at her.
"What's your problem, Jenn?" I asked her.
"Nothing," She said innocently.
"Yeah fucking right! Why do you feel the need to be such a fucking bitch to one of my best friends? Ollie is a really awesome girl. You just can't see past your own fucking jelousy to see how funny and chill that girl is. Thats why I sent you off with Phil and Ape, so I could actually enjoy myself." I vented all what I wanted to say to her for weeks now.
She huffed. "You've gotta be kidding me! Me, jealous of that?" She pointed to the car where Ollie was.
"Yes, you jealous of her! Its so obvious, all you do is glare at her, scoff when she says anything, and just bitch at her. I don't get it, you were friends with her at first. Remember that? The first day she came? What happened to that?" I asked her.
"Nothing happened. I just didn't feel like acting I liked her anymore, what's the harm in it? I just hate her. She pisses me off, and that's that! She's a stupid cunt!" Jenn yelled.
That caught the attention of everyone else who were approaching the car from the airport.
"Excuse me?" Novak piped in. "Last I checked, Ollie isn't a cunt at all."
"But out, you stupid nudist." Jenn snarled and got in the car, slamming the door.
"Let's just not even go on with it. Just forget her." I said, getting in the drivers side.
We drove back, Jenn in silence, and all of us yelling, having fun and making jokes. Dunn talked about how fun it was having Ollie around just to spite Jenn, and Novak and Terry agreed.
The driveway looked incredible. Later that day, a private helicopter landed, carrying Danny Way, Kris Markovich, and Colin Mckay out to break in the new skatepark.
It was a sad sight though, that a 5'2 girl wiped the floor with all of us male boarders. We'd all liked to have thought it was just because Tony had been her mentor, but it was just because she was amazing.
I couldn't help but love how pissed off Jenn got, everytime Ollie's praises were sung.
And I'll tell you another thing,
Jenn sure as fuck wasn't sleeping in my bed that night.
(She was lucky she even stayed in my house.)
Jenn's clock is ticking. Her time is almost the fuck up. Hell yeah.
