The Man with the Blue and Pink Hair, Chapter 5
I get to the beach and look at my watch it's nine-thirty. Okay so I'm a bit early. So what? I woke up early. I look up at the bench I suppose to meet Chibodee at. Huh? Why?
"Good morning Allenby! Ready to buy some skates?" he says while leaning back on the bench with his hands in his pockets.
"Chibodee? Huh. Sure!"
He walks to me. "Come on then let's go! The sooner we get some skates the sooner you can learn!" He grabs my hand and we go the way I was coming from. I don't understand what's going on. We're walking really fast!
We make a turn down a street, "Chibodee! Hey Hot Shot where are we going? And why are we moving so fast?"
"We're trying to get to the shop." He said while making his way though the morning rush. He stopped suddenly. "Here we are!" I too stopped and looked at the store we hurried over to. There was a display window to my left with a bike and gears, and a sign telling people who were interested about it, above the bike was the shop's name in green letterings shaped as a horse shoe. 'Pete's Sports Wear.' This is it?
"Come on lets go in." he said, as he takes me inside, it I just notice that his hand still owns mine, and blush a little. It's only been one day, yet I don't think he notices this small detail like I do.
A small high pitched bell rings as we enter the building. Inside is a small store, with (I'm assuming) Pete at the front desk, doing some paper work.
The man looks up. "Hi there Chibodee. Do you want to see the new boxing gear I just got?"
I look at the man, he was kinda older than I previously imagined. He was bald on the top of his head, and had very little white hair around his ears. He had nice warm brown eyes and a friendly smile, with real teeth (or at least they look real). The man was a little chubby, but just by looking at him; I could tell he used to be a football player, the kind of football they play in America or maybe he used to play rugby, maybe for collage or just for fun.
"No thanks Pete, I brought my friend Allenby so she could learn how to roller skate." Chibodee replied while giving a head movement in my direction.
"Oh, I see. A friend of yours huh? Well, if you want skating supplies that's fine with me, it's in the second room back to the right. It's on the left side self. But are you sure you don't want to look at the boxing gear Chibodee? There's no guarantee they'll stay here for long. And I do want my best customer to be the one to get them."
"No thanks Pete, maybe some other time. Thanks for the directions, we'll go look at the skate now." We move in back of the wall which Pete's check out and desk was in front of. "Come on Allenby, lets find you a good pair."
Wow this place must have been an apartment or something before, because stores, even private small ones, aren't set up this way. It seems like a maze to me, no wonder Chibodee is hanging on to me, he most likely doesn't want me to get lost.
We finally make it to the skates, okay maybe finally isn't the right word, but the point is we got there. I look around on the shelves. Wow, there are so many different kinds! There skates that turn into shoes, skate that have all four wheels lined up behind each other in a straight line (that must be a roller blade, cause it's kinda like a blade of wheels), then they have these skates with these fancy design on the wheels and the word 'Turbo' on the box.
"Here Allenby try these on." Chibodee hands me, a pair of skates that are white, with blue laces, and wheels. I try on one, and decided that it was too tight of a fit comfortably.
"Nope, if we can go one size up then they should be fine." I reply back as I put back the skates and give it back to him.
He looks around some more. "Here these should be better." He gives me a box, with white skates, and now teal laces, and wheels. I try them on..
"Hey! These are nice and comfy!" I try to stand up. Whoa. These things are weird! I can't balance myself. I move forward, with both arms wobbling, nope that does not help at all. Now I'm going to fall forward. I try leaning back, but ack! I'm falling! I quickly shut my eyes, waiting for me to fall. The ground isn't that far away, I should be okay.. Huh? No ground? I peek one eye open and I see Chibodee, smirking at me. I open both eyes as he sets me down in a sitting position. How embarrassing!
"At lest we found you some skates. Let's put them back in the box and buy them first okay?"
I nod my head in silent agreement, I don't want to look at him, I bet he has that cocky grin of amusement on his face. I quickly untie my skate laces, and return them to the box for the time being. I walk behind him as we make our way back to the front. I put the box of skates on the desk, and Pete asked the question "Will this be all?" I nod yes.
"It comes out to be 7.50 please."
I pull out my small wallet from my pocket when I saw.
"Here you go Pete." Chibodee, gave him some money.
"Chibodee?!?! What are you doing? It's MY skates, I pay!"
He laughs. "No you don't I owe you, consider it my way of the lser giving something to the winner from last night!"
"But!" He covers my mouth with his hand.
"No buts!" He says calmly and firmly.
"Bu."
"Nope." He interrupted. "Hey Pete, did I ever properly introduce, my friend here?" Dumb Chibodee he changes the subject. I'll pay him back, eventually.
Pete looks at me while putting the box of skates in a big plastic bag. "No, I don't think you ever did."
"I'm Allenby." I say, while extending my hand for a good 'nice to meet ya' shake.
"And as you probably guessed, I'm Pete." He shook the hand I offered. "It's nice to meet, you. I hope to see you two in my shop again." I smile at him, as Chibodee takes the bag with the skates in it.
"See ya Pete." Says Chibodee as he grabs my hand again.
"Bye Pete!" I wave as we leave.
The door makes the ring sound and once again we're outside. I look at my watch, ten-thirty. I look at Chibodee, who appears to be thinking.
He looks down at me. "Did you have breakfast yet?"
"No." I reply, come to think of it, I should had eaten something before I left this morning.
"There's a nice coffee place down the street, if you want we can get a muffin, and some hot coco or coffee depending on what you want. What do you say?"
Hot coco sounds good to me right now, and a bear claw would be tasty too! "Okay Chibodee I'll go, as long as I pay for you this time."
"Nope, no deal." He lets go of my hand.
"Fine, no deal." I say as I cross my arms. Man I was looking forward to that bear claw! But I'm more stubborn than hungry right now, so this is the result.
"Hmm.. How about I buy food, you buy the drinks deal?"
Hmm. there's a catch I know it. But it sounds fairer than him paying for all of it so.. "Deal."
We start to walk towards the café, not holding hands, just walking, and making light conversation along the way. He he he I can't wait for the rest of the day I can tell it's going to be fun learning how to skate, especially with Chibodee teaching me, at least I know he'll catch me if I start to fall.

A/N: Well, that's it for this chapter. Sorry it took so long to get it out; I hope it was worth the wait! It's about a page longer than the last story. Oh! Also I didn't use any currency because I know in different countries you use different currencies! (Kinda smart huh? Just kinda though!) Well please review!

Lol, I'm glad you're still reading this; I hope my story never gets to that point when it gets really bad that would make you not want to read it. Lol, I'm sorry it took a while to update. PLEASE review again!
PS: I feel bad that I made you upset for a whole day, sorry. =0(
To: the Desert Fox
Yup you were right Allenby has lost to Foonie in at a horse-racing game, but that's in the 'Go For It Domon' section of the manga, my story is based off the amine, so it doesn't really count. I still don't see why you can't write, I'm sure you'd be good at it. I wouldn't write with a group though because of the fact the people visualize different things differently. (If that makes sense) They took away G-Gundam over here again, so =0( But that's okay I still have the episodes to watch whenever. I would still think about writing if I were you, just keep trying until you get it right! Oh, and Happy (late) MS Gundam Anniversary to you too!
To: Sissi
Hi Sissi! Before I get started I just wanted to say thanks for the constructive criticism. I've been trying to make sure I won't repeat my words that often, so thanks! Okay on to the response.
About the whole Allenby/Chibodee thing well my lips are sealed up. Hmm.. From what I planed there's going to be about 12-15 chapters depending on the length, and maybe an epilogue. (Cause I thought of a really good idea!) I don't know if that helps you, but at least you can make some guesses on when the two will get together! Lol, I don't think I update to quickly any more huh?
Hehe I'm happy on this review, this chapter received some good adjectives! Thanks for the nice review on Chapter 4! Oh and I'm glad you liked the summaries of Marmalade Boy, I hope they translate the manga over there soon.
To: Qui-ti
Qui-it you are a super cool person! Both of your reviews made my day! I don't understand why it came to you as a shock that I heard of you, but that's okay. I'm glad that you're starting an Allenby/Chibodee fan-fic! Maybe other people will too! That would be so cool! The picture on your shoe sounds kinda cool; your friend must be a really good artist! Lol, thanks for your overwhelming positive response on both chapters, like I said before it really made my day better.
I never saw Cowoby Bebop, but I heard of it, maybe I'll start looking into it. I'm sorry but I haven't read your fics yet. (Sorry, but I can't wait to read your FFX fic, when I get time.) When I looked at your favorite stories I saw my fic in there! That was so COOL! I was so happy the rest of the day! So thanks Qui-ti, I hope you liked this chapter too!
To: Ping
Lol, I know Chibodee never does get the girl, and he should too! Lol, I'm glad this was a fun story to read so far, I hope this chapter and the ones to come will be too. Send me the URL to your G-Gundam website and I'll take a look. If you want you could put this fic in the fan-fic section. I don't mind. Hope to read a response from you! =0D
