my love ~ renga fanfic

langa pov:

I sat at the skatepark, watching the colours of the sky change ever so slowly as night began to fall. Hues of purple and pink, followed by yellow and orange. I loved this part of the day, especially in this place in particular.It reminds me of how he changed my life. He was able to teach me everything i know about skating and more right here in such a small space of time. With the help of his skills as a teacher and a friend i was now a so called "legend". Not many people realise it but he's just as great as i am, maybe even greater. his eyes can spot just about anything, and i guess his passion rubbed off on me a bbit which im glad it did. 

Skating makes me feel waaaay better than snowboarding ever did, theres just more freedom. It's less cold. and i don't need to wait for the snow to come to enjoy myself, because you can skateboard essentially anywhere! Reki taught me to do that too, he really is so amazing.

"Langa!" I turned to see the red head occupying my mind frantically running toward me. I wave back at him smiling like an idiot. It was difficult being genuinely happy but ever since i moved here and met him I can't stop feeling like this, he helped me re-discover my smile.

"Hey" I laughed as he sat beside me, doing our handshake. He was gasping for air like a moron but thats another thing i love about him, he never quits. Even if what he was trying to do would get us killed. "Let's go, S is opening soon" i suggested, clumsily lifting my board which i had left standing on the concrete ground. "Oh yeah...about that...I can't go tonight..."

What? Reki missing S? very unusual.

"What? Why not?" 

"Well...Langa my g, i have a date tonight!" he replied excited and blushing, I wanted to smile back at himm the way he was doing to me but how could i? 

a normal friend would hype him up, get excited too, congradulate him. but i'm not a normal friend, I was head over heels for the guy. I loved him.

I should be happy for him...shouldn't I?

"W-Woah, Th-thats great Reki! W-With uh who?"

"Kyomi! From our biology class, I've been wanting to ask her out for so long and i finally racked up the courage to do it!" he leaned back and gazed into the sky, a starstruck look in his eyes, i felt like my heart shattered into thousands of tiny pieces.

"W-Wow I'm s-so proud of you!" 

He's straight.

I shouldn't be surprised, MY sexuality's surprising. not his. everyone's straight (well assumed to be) from the second they're born, that's just life.

"well you can tell me how it went tommorow." I kicked off my board toward S. Maybe i was too harsh but in the moment i was too pissed to care. 

"hey langa! wheres Reki?" Miya asked as soon as i reached them, They were relaxing watching the other taleneted skateboarders showing off their skills. Were like a family of complete and utter strangers and although its illegal to be racing in an old abandoned mineshaft i just cant help being drawn to it. it's just in my nature.

"he couldnt come. he was busy." I said a little too angrily than i had intended. Miya sensed my mood however and changed the subject quickly without pressing me for detaild

"oh...wanna race me for a bit?" He looked up at me, hope shining in his eyes. Sometimes i forget his age because he's so cute. how old is he anyway? i honestly dont remember.

I accepted his challenge and Was speeding down beside him. An image of that redhead popped into my head and my smile faltered. He wasn't here to see me because some hot girl from biology was with him. I wonder what he was doing now.

I slowed my pace and watched as miya zoomed out of my sight. I let it all go and felt tears well up in my eyes. it's been ages since ive cried. I lost my emotion pretty much when dad died. I hate feeling pain like this. It hurts. So so bad.

In the midst of all my pain i felt a sharp jolt from underneath the front wheels on my board. Am i flying? 

i can hear people calling my name from the sidelines. But i can't see anything

not flying.

falling.

I close my eyes and brace myself for impact
