I and Tim had spent about an hour at the beach just talking; he seemed like a really cool guy so before he had to leave for band practice we exchanged phone numbers. He said he really wants me to meet up with his band members someday.

I was on my way home, I walked on the sideway kicking a pebble and not really paying attention to anything. I noticed that the wind started to get a little chilly so I pulled my sweater tighter around me. As I passed a big, beige two story house I heard a bunch of screams, music and water splashing. My eyes locked on the house and I saw 4 girls jumping around in bikinis in the backyard, having fun. One of the girls turned around and I recognized her as Zacky’s girlfriend, Luisina.

She gave me a small wave and I returned the gesture with a small smile as I continued walking home. As soon as I got home I headed straight towards bed, I was exhausted both physically, mentally and emotionally. I threw my clothes off, deciding to sleep in my underwear.
I was knocked out in a matter of minutes.

Tap

Tap

I was awaken from my sleep by an annoying tapping sound echoing throughout the room, I groggily searched for the source. I realized that the tapping came from my window; I turned on my bedside lamp and quietly got out of bed. When I reached the window, I pulled it open only to find nothing. I bent over and looked outside seeing nothing, I leaned back in and that’s when I saw a letter.

It said ‘Amy’ on the front of it and I recognized it to be Jacob’s writing. I furrowed my eyebrows, confused to why he would leave me a letter. I sat down on my bed, leaning against the headboard and folded the letter up.

Hey A…
I know you’re probably really pissed right now, well more likely hurt and I’m soooo soooo sorry. I don’t know what I can say to make you forgive me but I just wanted to let you know that I am willing to do anything for you. You are like my older sister but just tinier than me haha.
Well… There’s another reason to why I left a note in the middle of the night. I have a gig on Friday night at Sting Rock at 7 p.m… I hope you’ll be able to come, but I understand if you don’t.
Love you sis.
Jacoby <3

I gulped, and quickly disposed the letter by throwing it in the trash can next to my desk. I didn’t know if I was going to see him play, I mean it would be interesting and exciting to see him but I am still really hurt by what he did. I’ll just have to sleep on it, right? Yeah and with that I turned off the lights and drifted off to sleep.



It was lunch time and I walked through the cafeteria with my tray in my hands. I looked around to try and find an empty spot when I noticed a hand waving at me. It was Tim. I got confused, I’ve never seen him here but after all it’s not like I’ve paid that much attention to people around here.

I walked over to him with a soft smile grazing my lips and squeaked a small hello when I noticed three other boys sitting around the table with him.

As soon as I sat down Tim introduced me to the guys, I realized this was his band mates that he spoke of yesterday.

Will, the one I heard was the drummer was pretty tall with shoulder length blond hair and dark blue eyes. He had a goat tee taking place on his chin and wore a pretty used-looking Nirvana shirt.

Terry; the lead guitarist, who was more on the chubbier side, had long brown hair with a matching set of brown eyes. He was really sweet and he knew how to crack a good joke.

Then finally there was Troy, the rhythm guitarist who had the most piercing green-blue eyes I’ve seen. They really stood out especially with his black short hair. He looked like he worked out a bit,
not too much though but still looked like he could bench press a lot.

I snapped out of my daze just in time for Tim’s question.

“So, Ames wanna come with to our band practice some time?”

“Uh sure.” I said nodding and taking a bite out of my burger.

Lunch soon ended and we all walked out of the cafeteria together.

“Are you a senior or?” Troy asked.

“Ah, next year I will be” I smiled.

“Oh, you’re a year younger than the rest of us… We graduate this year! FUCK YES.” Terry cheered and jumped around, ending up knocking the books out of a girls grasp.

We all turned red from laughter whilst Terry turned red from embarrassment and quickly helped the girl.
When he was done the laughter evolved into something bigger and louder causing people to look at us. I really felt comfortable with these guys and yet I didn’t know them that well, but I guess I might as well take chances now that I am still not paying any attention to Jacob.

Next class up was Music. The one lesson that I always look forward to and today was no different.
I went into the classroom and took my seat in the back right corner, closest to the piano. Not even a minute later Matt, Brian, Zacky and Jimmy walked in. I tried hiding my face with the help of my hair but with no such luck. They spotted me and ran straight to me, all taking seats around me so we were sitting in a circle.

“Haaaaai Faaaames!” Jimmy shouted launching himself forward and hugging me with the table in between

“Heey” I said and patted his back.

“Soooo, were where you during lunch today? You ditched me Fames” Jimmy pouted and I resisted the urge to pinch his cheeks for being so cute.

“I was in the cafeteria?”

“No, where in the cafeteria? It was like super duper hooper full in there today! We could barely find a table”

“Uh I sat down with Tim and his friends?” I called hearing Matt snort, I looked at him and saw a
flash of something in his eyes. His jaw was clenched as were his fists who were turning white.

“Is there something wrong with that?” Not quite figuring out why Matt was being a… male bitch.

“Yeah, you really shouldn’t hang out with him and his gang, they are full of shit and just out for the ass” he muttered.

“Well, I really shouldn’t hang out with you either but yet again I am” I explained harshly, finally feeling like I’d grown a bit of a back bone.

I don’t know what games Matt is playing but I sure as hell am not going to be a part of them. He can’t just start acting nice and protective like that. Matt is confusing the hell out of me.
