watching the grass grow (s-kate)

Kate shrugged. 'Kickboxing, mainly. Sometimes I try other fightsports but kickboxing stays my favourite,' she answered. 'And I skate, if you can call that a sport.'. He nodded '' Well, ur putting in effort so i guess you could call it a sport" he anwsered with his somewhat bright smile as he happily tapped on the ground with his right foot "andd i do fightsports aswell so that's fun i guess" he said as he looked at her for a bit before looking at the soccer playing kids now trying to get their ball out of the pond causing him to laugh a little even though it was kinda sad. He turned to her again "i like to go out for runs aswell i guess, especially through the forest " he said with a lil shrug "don't know why i prefer it really" he quickly added ...

  He beamed up. 'I just started on kickboxing really, but used to do judo for a pretty long time, got quite good at it really,' he answered surprisingly calm. 'Omg really??? We should run together some time!'
  She smiled a little, but it wasn't really convincing. 'Yeah, maybe. Do you fight at a centre?'

She smiled, must be a yes, he figured with the smartest braincells he got. 'Yeah, maybe. Do you fight at a centre?' she then asked. Eric nodded with a smile "yeahhh, i'm not really that good though but whatever" he said while looking around him all calm and content in the moment

  Eric nodded with a smile. 'Yeahhh, I'm not really that good though but whatever,' he said while looking around him.
  Kate was silent for a moment as she thought. 'Hm... At what centre do you fight?' She was thinking of going back to one, since she started to miss the competition of it and being able to fight with others. Fighting alone against a boxing ball may help her stamina, speed and technique, but she didn't get the skills from it for a real fight.

  'Oh uh, just the one in town, nothing special really,' he chuckled.
  Kate nodded slowly. It was time to take a look there.
  'Oh boi that's a neat stone!' Eric said with a smile and walked up to grab a stone. 'Look at it oh my god!' he exclaimed, jumping up a little.
  Kate raised her brows. How someone could be so excited about a stone, she was afraid she'd never know.
  Eric walked back to the bench. 'Seee it has all these cool graytonesss definitely a nice add to my collection!' He showed her the stone.
  'Wow...' Kate reacted as she looked at it. 'That's... One hell of a stone.' She smiled a little but honestly she was just weirded out. 'You've got a collection?'

  He jumped up a little. 'Oehhh yesyesyes I have!' he nearly yelled.
  Kate blinked. What did she do now..?
  'I collect stonesss, sticksss, featherss, leavess and more, I don't know why... But I just do, all those memories ya know, just like pictures... But then they're not pictures I guess,' he answered with a smile as he fell back on the bench.
  Kate nodded a little. 'Aha... That's... quite the collection...' She didn't really collect anything, didn't really understand why some people get hyped about something so much they need more of it, but okay, you do you, thought the red haired girl.

  Eric nodded, smiling brightly. 'Y-yeh it is,' he said with a smile, taking a stone out of his pocket. 'Like this one, I got it for my birthday, the best gift my dad has ever given to me,' he said as he showed her the stone. 'I like how round it is and stuff, the soft edges, that kind of stuff.'
  Kate looked and nodded a little. 'Is that really the best gift ya dad ever gave? That's kinda sad,' she reacted. She didn't like his father anyway and to hear this she even got more hate for him.

  'What do u mean sad?' he said with a somewhat shaky voice. 'I-I love this stone,' he smiled a bit.
  Kate looked at him. 'Allright,' she told him with a small shrug.
  'What's yours anyways?'
  Kate frowned. 'What do you mean?'
