Jenna McCartney

I walked inside Radioactive.

I was hoping to catch Gray but I don't think he's here right now.

And before I forget.

I need a new pick.

Jake lost my guitar pick so I needed to buy a new one.

I had no idea where to look so I went to the guy at the counter.

"Hi uhm...Rover..." I read the guy's name tag.

So this is one of Gray's uncles.

He has messy brown hair, and dark brown eyes.

What is it with the Sanders and their eyes?

"Yes." Rover looked at me. "How may I help 'ya?"

"Yeah uhm...where can I find the guitar picks?" I asked.

"Oh they're right over here..." He paused, pulling out a couple guitar picks.

I looked through them, picking what seems to be the good one.

"You know you look familiar..." Rover muttered.

I looked up at him and pointed at myself to make sure that he was talking about me.

He nodded his head in response.

"Really?" I asked, slightly shocked.

Rover wasn't even here the last time I went.

"Yeah, what's your name?" He asked. "So y'know...I wouldn't get confused or anything."

I chuckled lightly. "My name is Jenna."

"Jenna...?"

"McCartney." I answered.

"Ohhh you're that chick my nephew kept talking about." He said, snapping his fingers.

Who now?

"Really?" My eyes widened a bit. "Who's your nephew?"

I mean hey, he could be talking about someone else...

"I believe he goes to the same school as you..." He rested his hand on the counter. "Though, I'm not sure if you've heard about Grayson Sanders?"

I laughed internally.

Who wouldn't know about the guy who gets into serious fights with the upperclassmen.

"He was talking about me?" I asked, handing over the pick I chose.

"Yeah...he talks about you all the time." He said, grabbing the pick. "He always rambles about the way you talk, the way you are always there for your friends..."

I listened to him as I pulled out my money, paying for the pick.

"Oh and don't even get me started on the way he talks about those eyes of yours." He shook his head.

I laughed. "Really? Why?"

"I believe there was this one time you were drawing on his face and he was telling me the details of..."

"Okay! I think I forgot something here..." A loud voice suddenly cuts in.

We turned around to see Gray approaching us, placing his bottle down. "I think I left my pen here..."

"That's it?" Rover raised his eyebrow, turning around to grab a pen and handing it to him.

"What else do you want me to say?" Gray asked. "Hi Jenna."
