Topher helped her up, then let go to show her, "This is how you do it" he said as he glided forward on his roller blades, "Do you think you could roll to me without my help?" he asked her having faith that she could accomplish it.

"Oh ok. If you insist." she said and smiled. She did what he did and actually managed to make it across to him. "Oh I did it," she said with a huge smile on her face. "This is fun." She tried to glide to the wall and made it there. "I think I'm getting the hang of it."

"Cool" Topher said as he began to roll next to her, there to be sure that he would catch her if she fell. He then started to go backwards in front of her. He came close to a rail, so he did a mizzou on it. "you will get the hang of it, once you can roll around, it all comes easy." he said encourageingly

"Well I'm sure I wont be able to go backward without ending up on my butt." she smiled, "Thank you for teaching me." she started to hum with out noticing while she concentrated on not failing.

"You'll get there" Topher said "goin backwards does take some time to learn" he said as he rolled over to the bench "Im gonna sit down, but if you need help, just ask." he said as he took off his skates...

Megan decided to go around the park once more. "I think I will go around once more then meet you back over here." she said, smiling. She started to skate around the park.

Topher watched as she skated around the park. She was really getting the hang of it. He remembered when he was first learning to roller blade.

Megan made it back over to him with out falling once. She sat down and took off her roller blades. "This was fun." she said, "But now I'm going to rest. My feet are killing me."

"I know what you mean" Topher said wiggling his toes to help get the stiffness out of them "In like ten minutes or so i will probably start again though...work on a new trick." he said moving his skates over, and leaning back on the table.

"I think I will sit here and watch for a bit. My feet need more rest." she said, looking at her toes. "I can practice on the skateboard." she said, picking it up.

"True" Topher said as he put his skates back on, he was gonna work on a fakie mizzou. he went to the rail, and tried to do it, but the first try he fell. He got right back up and tried it again. he nearly nailed it, but messed up the landing. "Tree times a charm" he told himself as he neared the rail. this time he nailed the trick, and the landing, he rolled back over to the bench, and sat down rubbing his back

"Oh, well it does not take you long to master a trick does it?" she smiled. "Wish I could do it that fast!" she put her skateboard back on the ground. "So where are you from.. I'm from London."

"From Italy" Topher said "Lived in Sicily all my life." he said thinking back to the good times, "And no, i have been working on that trick for some time...I finally got it though..."

"Italy. It's very pretty there." she said, "Well at least you have it down now." she glanced over at him then looked away quickly. She got up and started to try to skateboard again. Surprisingly she did not fall once.

"I see your getting better balance" Topher said noticing that she looked away quickly when she looked at him. He would have to skate later, now he would just watch.
