Like I said before, I thought I was going to have a fun time here...I thought wrong. Lets start with problem number one for all you begginners out there. I had forgoten one of the most important things to me ever in the history of the world of the history of the aliens himselves, herselves, itselves whatever...my Skateboard. So I was in a snow-covered land with about 1 million things to do so why would I need my Skateboard? I need it for many reasons a) I wanted it. b) I needed it. and c.) I wanted it. See? My reasons are perfectly normal but most importantly correct. I mean you cant be more obssesed with a Skateboard than I was with mine. If you havent notcied I even capitalize its name because its just that important. My Skateboard...my beautiful, beautiful Skateboard. It has metallic black on the botton with teal writing that said, "Eon." Why did it say Eon? I have no clue but I liked it from the start. Its wheels were sleek and black and the top was black with teal swirls. Something about it. "Are you okay Alex?" asked Domino as we set our stuff down.

I shook my head, "I forgot my Skateboard." I said. Domino sighed, even he knew my fetish for that Skateboard.

My mom laughed, 'Who cares? Besides you but thats not the point. Go out there and have some fun. Get your mind off that four-wheeled piece of junk." she said.

I nodded quickly and set off outside with Domino to find something to do. Domino got the puppy-dog look in his eyes as he saw something race by. "Alaskan Malamutes..." he muttered adoringly. I knew it!! Right when he had that look in his eyes I knew it was a dog. He knew every dog imaginable even the ones that werent official breeds. His parents, well his dad would never allow a dog in the house and that was all Domino seemed to want. I didnt have a dog but I didnt want one so me and him were different on that subject.

"C'mon Domino before you have a stroke thinking about something on four legs."

"But, but, but..." he complained as I dragged him to the sports store. Theres another problem. There were dogs everywhere. Malamute here, a fuzzball there, something not on two legs over to the right, my god the place was crawling with them!! It may have been jealous heaven to Domino but because of that it was pure mind-numbing emotion to me. At least there wasnt any in the store. When we walked into the store we noticed in the was those sliding doors, you know the ones that slide all around in a big circle? So of course me and him just had to play around with it for awhile, 16 year olds can stilll have fun too cant they? When we finally got done with that we surveyed the store checking out the girls inside, the stuff, but mostly the girls. Overall we found 2 girls that were worth the trouble (the trouble of getting to knew them wink), one was a shopper and the other was an employee. "Ill take the blonde." Domino said looking at the shopper. Of course he was taking the blonde, he always did. She had long wavy blonde hair and light green eyes. She wore a short jean skirt and a light green tank-top with pink boots lined with white fur. She had a thick pink coat with white fur in her cart as well. Domino walked up to her casually, "How are you today?" he asked.

"Pretty good, thanx." she said quickly as she walked faster.

Domino walked faster to keep up, "Do I at least get a name so I may adress you properly?"

"No."

"Pretty please!!" he begged.

She rolled her eyes, "Fine then, my name is Annikki. Uh-knee-key, got it?" she said sharply.

Domino flashed one of his famous 'prep smiles' that got all the girls, 'Sure thing. Name is Dominoc, but you can call me Domino."

She rolled her eyes once more and continued walking, Domino followed her and she looked back at him, "Im 16 okay? Quit following me!!" she yelled.

Domino laughed, "Im 16 too! What a coincidence!" he continued. I had been slowly following them the whole time just to watch.

Her eyes had caught mine, 'Whos that?" she asked with a smile.

Domino looked back at me, "Thats my friend Alex." he replied.

Before she could say anything else the other pretty girl employee that looked around our age stopped her, "Finding everything okay?" she asked. They chatted for awhile before they both left in search of something sports related. I sighed in relief as Domino walked over to me.

"You know her? Why did she give you that weird look? Do you think she was pretty? Do you..." he barraged me with questions. I told him to be quiet so I could at least answer those first three questions.

"No I dont know her. I dont know and she was an okay looker." I said.

Domino shrugged, "Maybe it was a good thing we lost her then, she couldve been a rapist. Whatever, shall we continue and find that employee once shes away from the weird blonde?" he asked, I nodded and followed him around the canoe/kayak section. Domino spotted the employee girl first. She had copper hair with black streaks down to her shoulders and wore a black employee outfit. I came in range to see her name was Hope. She waved to us and called us over. "Hello Miss Employee Lady errr... Hope." said Domino.

Hope laughed, "Well next time you guys decide to hit on someone stay away from her. Shes weird if you havent noticed.' she replied. "May I ask your names?"

"My name is Alex and this is Dominic but he prefers Domino." I said quickly.

She nodded, "Well nice to meet the both of you. Are you here on tourism, just moved maybe?"

Domino shook his head, "No were here for some fun for about a week."

"Well then i'll see you soon maybe? Stay out of trouble." she said before leaving.

"She's nice..." Domino and I muttered as she left. We walked slowly back to the cabin thinking about our store adventures. After Hope left Domino and I had wandered the store and even bought a few things. Before we got off the plane my mom gave us each a hundred dollars for the day or until she gave us more, she hadnt quite decided the money plan yet. I had gotten a new coat, boots, thin snowpants, gloves and a hat. Domino got a matching set except he got red and I got blue. We also got some candy and looked around for those 'sword lessons' Mom heard so much about but couldnt find any. Once we got inside Domino and I went to one of the bathrooms to fix our hair, well for him to fix his hair and for me just to brush it out because I wasnt that preppy. Domino spent his perfect time combing, brushing and putting gel in his strawberry blonde hair...he..wait a minute!! Ive gone this far into the story and havent really said anything about me havent I? Well for starters I have brown hair with white. I know its weird but im not old trust me. Like how some people have brown hair and have red strands yeah..I get the beautiful old person white strands. You cant really tell though unless your up close thankfully. I also have teal eyes, wonderful arent they? The docter said my mom's blue eyes and my dads supposed since I dont remember him that well's green eyes got mixed. He says its natural but do you see freak kids running around with white hair and teal eyes? I thought not, call me stupid but I think the doctor was just trying to be nice because im no ordinary looking person. I have a slim figure yet its pretty packed with muscles. While Domino flirts at the gym with jock's preppy girlfriends im acutually working-out. Well now thats thats done back to our story going past some simple problems of weird girls and no Skateboard...
