Chapter Eight: Fallen
I was jumping with excitement. Jumping, jumping, jumping...OW! I got up off the ground and dashed to the car. I couldn't wait to go to the traditional roller skating party Lindbergh Elementary always held at Enjoymentway (Funway, have you ever been there?). The more I thought about it the more excited I became. Of course I would see Libby there, but what about Jimmy? He might come! But then again he might not, well I'd just have to wait and see!
"Cin?" Libby asked nervously. I pulled myself up off the ground.
"I'm fine," I said as I started skating around the deserted rink again. It seemed like Libby and I were a bit early. "You know what Libby?"
"What?" Libby asked, skating beside me.
"OW!"
"Girl, you have got to trade those in for in-line skates," Libby said as I attempted to stand after my crash into the wall. I was doing my best to watch everyone who was coming in, but it didn't help me see anything in front of me. Practically every other second I would crash into a wall, partly because I had the four-wheeled skates and partly because I was too busy looking for Jimmy.
"You're right," I said after my some-teenth crash. "Wanna come with me?"
"Sure Cindy," she said, and followed me (although she didn't follow my zigzagged course into the wall) out of the rink. On the way to the counter, I saw a face I gave up on seeing that night. Come to think of it, I saw two. First I saw Betty.
"Hey Betty!" Libby yelled out to her, waving. Betty waved back smiling.
"Betty, I thought you had a swim meet!" I exclaimed.
"They canceled it because some maniac decided to drain the pool. What are the odds of that?" Betty said, a bit comically, and we all laughed. Our little trio laughed. Then my head snapped up. The second face had appeared.
"Umm, guys, I gotta go fix a thing behind the place over there," (A/N: My fav quote from Win, Lose, and Kaboom!) I said and went towards the skate rental desk. Reason number one, to get in-line skates, and reason number two, to see Jimmy. Unfortunately Betty followed me.
"Hey Jimmy!" she yelled. "Look! It's Cindy! Say hi to Jimmy Cindy!" Oh god was I going to pound her.
"Watch it!" I yelled. One kid had zoomed right past me on his skates. Gosh, he pretty much knocked me over! I had my in-lines now, and was pretty much just following Jimmy around the rink. I chuckled to myself. He really couldn't skate very well. What's that dance he's doing? I laughed again.
"Excuse me," a voice right behind me mumbled and a split second after that, a kid went rushing past me, and I lost my footing.
"What the heck!" I yelled, as I stumbled forward...right on top of Jimmy, And so we were, in a heap, in the middle of a roller skating rink. I got u pas quickly as I possibly could, brushed myself off, and rolled away, blushing like mad.
HA! I UPDATED! And it's longer than most chappies! Oooooooooo! REAVIEW PLEASE! I'll give you a piece of banana bread!
