Chapter Text
Callum climbed up the tree, he had a brown backpack, which was heavy from his large sketchbook, he pulled himself up one of the side trunks, his intrusive thoughts were trying to take control. He pulled himself onto a branch and sat down, putting his backpack onto the branch next to him, he pulled his phone out of his pocket, trying to grab his headphones from his backpack and hold onto the branch, he heard a click-clock sound, like Ezran’s scooter but lighter. He looked down, he saw a two girls riding skateboards, they both had very light hair, almost white, one looked 15, the other 18 or 19, the older girl’s hair was waist length and had two small braids that were connected, the younger’s had shoulder length hair, with a small braid, they both had helmets with fake horns attached, the elder’s was black with rainbow stripes, the younger’s looked painted with teal and black paint.
He almost lost his balance, which would’ve been a pretty bad thing since he was 20 or 25 feet in the air, “Race yah to tha field, Andromeda!” The younger yelled, with a thick Scottish accent, the older one laughed. He watched as they dashed through the sidewalk, Andromeda slowed at the ramp while the younger sped up, She’s gonna crash, he thought, at the last second she pulled her legs up and grabbed her board, he watched in awe, “Wha- DAMN IT!” He yelled, falling, he grabbed a branch near him, he was 10 feet from the ground, he tried to pull himself onto the bigger branch but his hoodie was stuck on another branch.
“Shit,” He muttered, trying to use his noodle arms to pull himself onto the branch. He leaned on the branch, using his free hand to pull the hood out of the branch, he shimmied down the branch and climbed back up and grabbed his backpack, “Shit, Harrow’s gonna kill me,” He muttered, seeing that his phone’s screen protector was broken and the screen was probably cracked.
