With herbackpack strapped to her back, she skated down the sidewalks of the park, hoping to find a quiet place to sit and draw. she loved sketching her memories of the waves in North Shore. She pushed back her blonde hair and tucked it lazily behind her ear.
She wore light blue jeans, a black roxy shirt, and a roxy black and red jacket. She looked around for a few moments and sighed. it was boring here right now.

Leon sat on a nearby swing,sketching some kids who were tagging a nearby wall.A stray wind ruffled the pages of his sketchbook,and threaded its chill fingers through his jet black locks.His hair fell down into his face,obscuring his misty hazel eyes,which had chosen to be a steely blue-grey today.
His t-shirt bore the name of some obscure,long forgotten superhero,and his faded blue jeans were looking worse for wear--a perfect match for his ragged looking Chucks,with the laces untied and the soles falling apart.
He saw a girl skating down the sidewalk with a sketchbook in hand.He recognized her from around school,though he'd never had the oppertunity to speak with her.

Jynx stopped and opened the sketchbook, gazing down at the many sketches of the ocean and the Hawaiian sunsets she so loved. She looked up and noticed a boy she had seen at school. Scooping her skateboard into her arms, she walked towards him.
"Hi... I'm Jynx. Jynx Payne..." she said with a bright smile.

He smiled back,closing up his sketchbook and tucking his pencil behind his ear.He extended his hand as she approached.
"Hi--yeah,I've seen you around school---eh,I'm Rowing.Well,Leon Rowing."He smiled a characteristically charming grin.

Jynx smiled and brushed back her blonde hair, attempting to keep it out of her eyes. She failed miserably.
"Nice to meet you..." she said with a smile. "Though I've probably ran into you alot at school..." she said with a soft laugh.

He lowered his hand quickly when she didn't shake it,and stuffed it in his pocket with a small inward shrug.
"It's nice to meet you,too,"He said before adding,"Yeah,I think we have the same lunch or something...."He was thoughtfully quiet for a moment before motioning to the swing next to him,"Would you care to join me?"He smiled.

Jynx smiled. "It's nice to meet you and sure..." she said sitting down in the swing next to him. She ran her fingers through her blonde hair and twisted one strand around her finger. She noticed his sketchbook and smiled. "I'm taking it you like to draw too?" she said with a smile.

"Yeah,I do,actually,"He said with a bemused grin.He took note of her sketchbook,"It looks like we share the same passion..."He cracked open his sketchbook as she sat down next to him.

"I absolutely love to draw... almost as much as I like to surf." she said opening her own sketchbook. She looked at the first picture. She remembered sketching it like it was yesterday. It was the sun setting on the beaches of North Shore. She had went through a hard day of surfing and come back with only that drawing to show for it.

"That's really good,"Leon commented with a glance at the first drawing in Jynx's sketchbook,"I can see you really like surfing,"He gave a small laugh.
His own sketchbook was full of drawings and sketches of every type.Every inch of every page was covered,from full,complete pictures,to simple doodling pages,with little cartoon characters squished together.The specific work that was exposed now was a concept sketch of the kids tagging the wall.There were deep shadows,and he'd started to add tints of blue and red into it.

"Thanks..." she said with a smile. "Yeah... California born and raised so I'm a surf freak." she said with a laugh. "I've surfed alot of beaches in the world. From the beaches of Argentina to Spain... I've done it all but I was scared to death when I surfed Pipeline." she said with a shake of her head.

"Yeah,the pipeline is where it gets hardcore--seperates the men from the boys.Or,er,the girls from the women.You get my point."He grinned sheepishly.
"I'm from Florida--we lived just like 20 minutes from the beach--I used to go out and surf every once in a while.Not that I'm any good at it,"He gave a small laugh.

"I got hurt at Pipeline if I remember correctly..." she said thoughtfully. "Not that is good to remember that..."
"I was decently good but since we moved to New York... I've focused on my drawing." she said with a light shrug. "I only get to surf on vacations now."
