Can Books Look Sad?

“The only luxury he allows himself is buying books, paperback books, mostly novels, American novels, British novels, foreign novels in translation, but in the end books are not luxuries so much as necessities, and reading is an addiction he has no wish to be cured of.” ― Paul Auster, Sunset Park

Skye did not to do this. She hated the thought of so many people. The crowded room. Everyone talking and communicating. The girl had to stop on the sidewalk outside to use her inhaler just to calm down. Slowly she walked toward the building, trying to act confident, a plate of freshly baked cookies in her hand. 

Slowly she pushed the door open with her free hand, taking small shaky breaths. “I b-b-b-br-ro-o-o-ought-t c-o-o-o-ook-ki-i-ies.” she stuttered, faking an uncomfortable smile.

“not really it’s the most simple and basic trick.” he only smiled at her, he was quite surprised over how genuinely pure she was and new to things he honestly though most people would know about even those who didn’t skate knew. “sorry, no more space to drag you across.” he looked at her pouting and let go of her hands, letting her stand on the board by herself.

As he let go of her hands, Skye shook a bit, convinced she was going to fall. Realizing that even if she did, he would never let her get hurt, she softly smiled, “Sh-sh-show-w?” Skye asked softly. The girl was even astounded at herself. It normally too her months, if not years to open up to someone and here she was, trusting this man with her life.

I have a huge bite of some sort on my foot and it burns. I might be dying.

“you’ll be a kickflip master before you know it.” he stopped the board carefully with his foot since they couldn’t go any further at this point. “a person and a trick. kinda like you force your board into the air which makes it jump. ollie.” 

Skye looked up at him, a concerned look on her face, “D-d-dang-g-gerous.” Something about a board flipping in the air didn’t sound safe to her. Once he stopped her, the girl pouted.

Go give Sydney’s starter some love <3

[thatgirlskye]

It’s late and I’m sick but hey! If anyone wants to RP with Sydney (she’s not in the tags yet so posting here) come talk to me! I want to get some stuff going for my baby! She’s a hot mess and a trouble maker but she needs people!

“everybody has to start somewhere. nothing is impossible.” it was words he lived by and had ever since he was a kid. “ugh, there is a lot of them but my favorites are 360-flip and impossible. the basics are an ollie or kickflip. everyone wants to learn a kickflip.” he continued to gently pull her across the concrete.

“k-k-k-ki-ickf-f-f-f-flip-p.” Skye spoke, giggling at the sound of the word, “K-k-kickf-f-flip.” she spoke again. As the words repeated in her head, Skye wrinkled her nose, “O-o-ol-l-l-l-llie?” she questioned, “p-pers-son?” An Ollie sounded like a name to her, not a trick.

this is why liam did what he did when it came to skateboarding, didn’t matter who you were or whatever age; if someone could find joy in the smallest things, then he was as pleased as they were. “you’ll cruise down city before you know it.” he kept walking backwards, letting her roll along but making sure he didn’t walk into anyone.

Skye softly smiled, “I d-d-don’t k-know if I’ll be th-th-that g-g-good.” she mumbled, enjoying the entire moment, “Wh-what t-t-t-tricks c-can you d-d-d-d-do?”

the fact that she even dared to stand on the board was quite surprising, wasn’t really the impression he had gotten from her before; nope she judged him from an article and her body language at that point screamed she wanted to run away. “see, easy. just trust me, i know that’s a lot to ask but i don’t want you to fall and hurt yourself.” putting his foot down, he pulled her carefully so she could at least feel the board moving.

Feeling herself slowly move, Skye laughed. A strong laugh. A laugh she hadn’t done so whole heartedly in years. “f-f-fly-y-ying.” she stuttered, laughing again. For two seconds everything was okay. She didn’t have a stutter. She wasn’t sleeping on someone’s couch. She was normal.

“you have nothing to be worried about, skye.” he smiled politely. “we’re just going to run some tests to make sure you’re okay. your blood pressure was too high, you couldn’t breathe, you passed out… your body went through a lot so i just want to make sure things are alright.” he explained to her. “if you don’t mind, may i examine you?”

[thatgirlskye]

Skye looked up at him and raised an eyebrow, her head tilting to the side in confusion, “H-h-how-w?”

[thatgirlskye]

I love how anons are getting concerned for Skye.It warms my heart. One wants her to make friends. One is worried about her and the ”fuck boy” breaking her heart. What are you guys going to do if she get’s a boyfriend?!?

Let’s be real, is that ever going to happen? No one could love a girl so broken.

liam dropped the board onto the ground and placed a foot on it, he wouldn’t make her try it inside the mall since she shouldn’t get into trouble and the weather was slowly clearing, it wasn’t heavy rain fall. “it won’t move, i promise but you need to bend your knees a tiny bit after stepping up, helps with the balance.” he offered to take her other hand so she’d have the best balance possible.

Skye slowly nodded, pushing her hair back with her free hand.She put one foot on the boar next to his before placing her hand in his other and placing her other foot on the board as well. Softly shaking she started to smile. Of course, they weren’t moving but she was at least standing on the board. She was proud of that.

zahir understood what she meant, as he had found out from her friend. “well, i spoke to your friend and said he’s feed your cat, walk his dog and bring over a few things for you.” zahir informed with a smile. “if you need anything else, just let me know.” he informed her.

[thatgirlskye]

“O-oh.” Skye stuttered. He had taken care of everything so there wasn’t much else to do or say. She pulled the thin blanket higher, already cold.
