Chapter 6

Olivia's POV

We stood around watching Zeke and Luther doing a bunch of cool tricks that I don't know the name of. Luther had a cool helmet with yellow spikes shaped into a Mohawk. It looked cute on him. They were really good, no wonder they were sponsored skaters. After a little while, they came to a stop by us.

"So, guys, what did you think?" Zeke asked.

"I thought that was pretty amazing!" Stella complimented. We all nodded in agreement. Luther was standing off to the side, distracted.

"Hey," I went over to him, "you were great, too."

He smiled at me. "Do you want to learn?"

"I'll probably be really bad, but…okay," I answered.

He handed me a helmet and some pads. "Don't worry. They're clean. We always have some extras."

"Okay, thanks," I slipped on the pads and the helmet. "What do you think?" I asked, spinning around.

"I think you look like a real skateboarder, he said.

"Well, thank you very much," I curtsied and he chuckled. Then, he led me to a more secluded area of the park where there weren't as many people.

"Here, stand on the board." I did as he instructed. "Now push with one leg, then put it on the board and try to balance."

I pushed my foot back a few times and tried to put my free foot on the board, but I fell off.

"And that's why we wear pads," Luther joked, "but, that was a good first try. Here, let's try again. But, this time, I'll hold onto you."

"Okay," I said, climbing back onto the board.

He held onto one of my arms as I pushed my free foot back a few times for momentum. I put it on the board, and almost fell over again. But, Luther put his arms around my waist to steady me.

"Thanks," I said softly, my eyes meeting his.

"No problem," he said, his voice equally soft. I don't know how long we were like that, clinging to each other. Then, he spoke up again, "Olivia?"

"Yes?"

"I have something to tell you."

"What is it?"

"I kind of told Ozzie we were dating…"

"You did what?" I jumped off the board, the moment was broken. I was angry.

"Olivia…wait!" He was still holding onto my waist, so he pulled me back towards him. "Let me explain!"

I gave in. "Why on earth would you tell him that? Give me one good reason. You've got five minutes," I told him.

"Okay, well Ozzie was trying to go over and hit on you and Stella and Mo. So, I told him you were all taken. But, then he realized that there were only two guys and three of you girls. So, I said that I was dating you. I guess I couldn't stand the thought of him bothering you," he explained.

"Oh," I said, finally understanding. "So you told him that so he would leave us alone?" He nodded.

"That's kind of sweet," I admitted, "in a weird way."

"And there's something else," he continued.

"What?"

"Well, I know I just met you. But, to be honest, I think I fell for you the moment I laid my eyes on you. So, I was wondering…would you like to be my real girlfriend?"

I studied his face for a moment. Then, my thoughts drifted to Wen. I liked Wen, but he still hadn't made a move. And, he's had so much of a chance. I thought he liked me back, but I guess he never did. And, here's Luther, only spending a few hours with me and already telling me how he feels? Maybe it's for the best.

"Sure," I told Luther. I gave him a smile and a peck on the cheek. His face turned red.

"Really?" he asked. I nodded and he picked me up and spun me around. I laughed and we walked back over to the rest of the group, hand in hand.

Luther's POV

I can't believe Olivia's my girlfriend! This is the happiest day of my life!

"Zeke, bro, can I talk to you?"

"Sure," we walked over to the side.

"So, I told Olivia about the whole issue with Ozzie…"

"How did she take it?"

"She was mad at first, but then she was fine after I explained why. And, then…I asked her to be my girlfriend!" I exclaimed.

"That's great, bro!" We did the slow-butter. "I got something to tell you, also."

I asked, curious, "What is it?"

"Well, Stella is a pretty cool girl." I think I know where this is going.

"Mmhmm?"I motioned for him to continue.

He began to talk again, "And I think I like her."

That was Chapter 6! I hope you liked it! It was actually really hard for me to write this one. I was really stuck, so I don't think it's up to my usual standards. All the same, I hope you thought it was decent enough. Please review!
