"Griff Simmons peeks the last hill of the course, he flies up a ramp and pulls off a triple Mctwist! What a day it is for him! He slides into first on the SSX World Circuit!" Griff threw his arms up in the air as he crossed the snowed over red finish line. He sighed as he gazed at the empty stands. "This will never happen," he mumbled unstrapping his feet from his board. If only he had one person to cheer him on, that would be great. He picked up his board and tucked it under his arm. He glanced around one more time to see if there was anyone in the stands. In a viewer box right above the SSX sign was a girl about his age. Fingerless gloves that climbed to her elbows engulfed most of her arms. A short sleeve black shirt with some sort of animal loosely gripped the female's torso. A matching skirt wrapped around her waist and candy cane stalkings reached into long red boots. Make-up hid her flaws on her head and straight black hair sat delicately on her shoulders. Her hands pressed against the cold glass and her head tilted to the left in awe. Her jaw just slightly dropped. Griff jumped in the element of surprise. How did she get there, he was certain those boxes were locked when there wasn't a big event. Maybe she was the daughter of one of the owners, but she had seemed pretty fascinated. A sly smiled crossed Griff's lips as he was determined to meet this girl.
He dashed across the winner's circle and up the hill the box was mounted on. As he reached the door he scanned the earth for any signs of foot prints. There were footprints leading up, but none leading down. He fiddled with the door and as it came unlocked he burst through. Elise jumped to her feet staring at Griff. "Oh Griff, my little sister Janis just wanted to see you snow board," she stated with a smug look upon her features. Griff bit his bottom lip and cocked his head slowly at Elise.
"You're joking right?" he questioned. Elise chuckled and shook her head.
"No, she's heard so much about you and she was wondering if I could take her to see you practice, she's pretty good herself," Elise informed the amazed boy. Griff turned his head to the girl of his age who was now pressed against the glass facing him. She let out a slight grin to numb the situation. Griff's face turned a pale color of red as he glanced at the two holding his gaze a little longer at Janis.
"Well um, uh…" Griff stuttered, this girl liking him stuff wasn't new at all, just a little awkward seeing he hadn't met any of them. "Well she's welcome to watch any time," he finally stated with a sharp nod of his head. The grin on Janis' face widened to a huge smile and she pushed herself away from the glass. Griff examined the two girls in a confused manor. "Um, Elise, you and your little sister look nothing alike," he pointed out looking at each of their features. Yes, Elise was the regular beauty queen, and there was Janis, a cute girl, but she would never be the snow boarding beauty like her sister. Janis chuckled.
"Well I got my father's looks, and Elise got my mom's looks. Elise looks like a super model because my mother dominated that job for a little while," Janis explained in a typical twelve year old tone. Griff looked confused. Janis had just put down her own stunning features and started talking about her sister.
"Ah, well I see," Griff mumbled scratching his head. "Well, I could give you some pointers some time if you wanted Janis," he suggested. Janis nodded and looked at Elise.
"If Elise says it's OK, I am after all here for two months to see her," she said staring innocently at Elise. Elise sighed.
"I do need some one to take her off my hands when I'm doing my races and junk, I guess you guys could squeeze in some time there," Elise agreed in an irritated tone. Janis smiled and you could tell by her expressions there was a party going on in her head. "You guys can have some time in about half an hour, that's when Super Pipe starts, just don't take her into the back country Griff, I know you have a habit of doing that to newbies," Elise preached. Griff rolled his eyes and nodded.
"Even if I do I won't let anything bad happen to her," Griff assured Elise. Elise shot a glare towards him.
"Let me put it this way, if Janis gets hurt, it's the end of your career," she warned with a harsh tone. Griff grimaced and nodded.
"I'll take her through the bunny trails," he muttered with his head slung low. Elise smiled pleased with her quick change of heart for Griff.
"Good," she said with a nod. She glanced to Janis whom was currently pouting. Obviously she wanted to be wild and go down the back country, not some lame bunny trails.
"Sis, I'm perfectly fine going in the back country with Griff, I'm not two anymore," Janis complained crossing her arms.
"JANIS! MOM AND DAD SENT YOU HERE AND THEY EXPECT ME TO TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOU!" Elise yelled with a glow of rage twinkling in her eye. Janis lowered her head and scuffed her shoes. "Now, it's either bunny trails or nothing!" Elise exclaimed the rage and sharpness in her tone still remaining there.
"Bunny trails," Janis mumbled staring at the messy floor. "The bunny trails sound fine,"
"Good, now pick her up at 10 Griff, I expect you will be on time," Elise preached. With that note Elise grabbed Janis and stormed out of the box.
'Wow, I have never seen Elise so pissed off, what did I fucking do? Eh, it must be that PMS girls get,' Griff thought hoisting his board up further.
