Bang (2007)
“I can see it like I’m watching a movie.
It goes like this: The next day, I ride over to JD’s house on my bike to get him. We’re going to hang around, you know, take it easy on a September Sunday. School has just started, and so far we don’t have much homework. So why not make the most of it, especially when it’s nice and cool—I’m wearing a long-sleeved shirt, and JD is wearing a big, floppy, long-sleeved T-shirt that hangs down almost to his knees—but sunny and bright? Oh yeah, and I’m also hop...ing to catch a glimpse of Leah. I do. She takes our picture. I’m hoping maybe she’ll come out with us. She doesn’t. She’s going somewhere with one of her girlfriends.
We leave JD’s house, ride our bikes a couple of blocks, duck down an alley behind a medical building that’s closed, and smoke up. Then we argue about what to do. I want to head downtown, maybe hang out at an arcade for a while. JD wants to go to the beach, where it’s nice and relaxed. Where he says there will be girls sitting in the sun, working at keeping the color in their faces.MoreLess
