"OH. MY. EFFING. GOD."

Tia groaned, "What is it now?"

Tia and Lily were sitting at the back of history class, causally lounging as their teacher droned on and on. Frankly, all Tia felt like doing was listening to her favorite bands.

She crumpled up a tiny sheet of paper and aimed for the greasy nest of hair that sat in front of her. It landed right on the bullseye and she gave herself a quiet cheer.

"I think I have a new favorite person." Lily said, tapping away at something on her phone that she was hiding underneath her desk.

Tia rolled her eyes and scoffed. "Please don't tell me it's another Harry Styles because I swear if you say one more word about Larry, I'm afraid I'll have to cut your balls off."

Lily returned her words with a menacing glare and a cross of her arms. "First of all, I'm a girl so I do not have balls. Second of all, Larry is my OTP, so excuse me if I talk about them occasionally."

Tia scoffed at Lily's word choice. "So who is it now, then?" Truthfully, Tia didn't really care. Lily was the typical fangirl; her room was covered in posters of One Direction, Taylor Swift, and Ed Sheeran. She would never stop rambling on and on about the little things they did, and although Lily would never admit it, Tia was 99% sure that Lily had cried when she heard rumors of Niall Horan having a girlfriend.

Lily motioned for Tia to look at something on her phone, so she leaned in to try to see whatever it was. On the screen was a picture of a blonde-haired, blue-eyed boy.

"Don't even try to lie, Tia. He's hot." Lily said wiggling her eyebrows. And it was true, Tia had to admit, the stranger was quite pleasing to the eye, despite the fact that his legs looked like they were about ten feet tall.

"I suppose he's decent." Tia tried to play it off cool.

At this Lily just raised one eyebrow.

"What's a five es oh es?" Tia asked, looking at one of the tags on this picture.

"It's an abbreviation of the band he's in, 5 Seconds of Summer."

Tia's eyes widened a little bit, as excitement started to course through her veins. "What type of band?" Please don't say boy band, please, please, please. Evidently, Tia believed that boy bands did not count as music.

Lily paused a bit before saying, "I'm not really sure, I just found these guys. I'll look it u-"

Lily's voice was shut off when their teacher, Mr. Melburn, snatched her phone out of her hands. His face was beet red and a vein in his forehead looked right about to pop.

His eyes narrowed, and Tia could practically see his already gray hair, turning white. "Miss Frilo, is my class so boring that you must be looking at th-" he looked down at the picture of the blonde. "-this punk?" He said in a loud whisper.

Lily just sat there, not letting his words faze her. She was used to it, in fact. This was not even close to the first time Lily had gotten caught on her phone during class, and to be honest, she didn't really care if she did. "Yes, Mr. Melburn, this class is so boring that I would rather be watching a turtle crawl an entire marathon than sit here in this hellhole." Everyone was so used to it by now, that no one even acknowledged her remark or the current situation she was in.

This was her first time being caught in Mr. Melburn's class, however, so her blatant words seemed to anger him even more than other teachers. "Miss Frilo, please see me after class so I can write you a detention slip. And don't bother asking when you will be getting your phone back, because I will be calling your parents to pick it up." He turned on one heel, leaving both Tia and Lily in a stunned silence.
