Oakland School, chapter 9
"I'm a professional skater. Yeah, I go to lots of skate demos. Me and Bam aren't that big now, but we will. My skate team is called Element. Bam is one year older than me. And, ummm...I became pro at twelve. Does that answer all your questions?" I said.
"Not all of them," Adie said. "Who is Bam? Is he your boyfriend who happens to be a pro skater too?" She said.
"He is one of my best friends. Even though I live in Pittsburgh, and he lives in Westchester, we met. We met when I was new, and then we met up. We are just friends. One day he's gonna have his own show. He is a pro skater, we are both in Element. Oh, and his friend John...Johnny? Yeah, Johnny is gonna start a show one day called, 'Jackass', and I could star in it. We like having fun," I said.
"Oh, well you know Tre likes you, right?" Kristen said.
"Yes, but, I don't know. He is the type that will get rid of you when you're dating him in like three years. And then he is gonna get a girl knocked up, and then leave her, I just know," I said.
"Yeah, we can see that. So you don't wanna date him?" They asked.
"Nope. I know, totally mean. But, I just wanna have fun. I have so many health problems and stuff, so yeah. Me and Tre can be just friends," I said.
"Tre, can't be JUST friends with a girl. Espeically a girl he likes," Adie said.
"Okay, I don't want him, if he wants to be with me, the closest he'll get is being just friends," I said.
"Okay, think about it," Adie said.
"Whatev!" I said.
So, we had about fifty bags each. It was fun. We went back home. Or, to my house. I got a phone call.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hey Sam!" This person blasted through the phone, I pulled the phone away a bit.
"You're supposed to say the thing that rhymes," He whispered.
"Hey Bam!" I screamed back.
"So, when are you coming tomorrow? It is last skate demo of this year. And then next year, you're moving back to P.A.!" Bam said.
"Who is it?" My mom whispered.
"Its Bam," I said.
"Tell him I said hi, and tell him hi to April and Phil," My mom said.
"Hey Bam my mom says hi, and hi to Phil and Ape," I said.
"Okay, but I'm just too lazy, I'm not gonna tell them," He said.
I laughed.
"Hey, in a few years I'm gonna get a show and Ryan, Raab, and those other fuckers are gonna be in it. Oh, and you're in it too, you're gonna move into my house," He said.
"Why would I live in your house?" I asked.
"Cause, um...it will be the funnest!" He said.
"Well, what time are you going?" I said.
"Ape is making me go at fucking twelve," He said.
"My parents are making me go at twelve too! They don't know their way around Cali," I said.
"Yeah, the good thing is we left Don Vito at home. We totally just ditched him!" He said laughing hard. "Okay, I'll see you at twelve, " He said in an annoying voice.
"Bye Dickhead!" I said.
"Bye whorebag!" He said.
And with that, we hung up.
"Was that Bam?" Adie asked.
"Yeah, okay, I have to get ready for tomorrow," I said.
"We'll leave," Adie said. And they left, I got ready. My mommy helped me! My dad was confused as ever. I can't wait until the skate demo!
"Not all of them," Adie said. "Who is Bam? Is he your boyfriend who happens to be a pro skater too?" She said.
"He is one of my best friends. Even though I live in Pittsburgh, and he lives in Westchester, we met. We met when I was new, and then we met up. We are just friends.
