audrey

i just woke up to a small buzz from a pretty new app that everyone talks about, instagram. feeling like shit, i sat up on my bed and looked at the notifications, it was my best friend , grace tagged me in some post from the night before, it was me taking 5 shots because i got dared to but now i know why i was feeling so shit.

i got out of bed and took my phone downstairs. two minutes after grace tagging me in that video i got another ping with a notifications of miles kane liking my post of me playing guitar, god that was embarrassing until he commented "my friends are looking for a backup guitarist, i think you would be great for the job" i was shocked, who is his friends? i put my phone down just for a minute to make a coffee. as i put my phone down on the counter it got another ping. i put my head back in the air and groaned, the pinging wouldn't stop.
nevermind, it was from my favourite band, the arctic monkeys, the DM read:
"hi audrey!
our friend miles kane had  seen your post of you playing guitar and we were hoping you would come on tour with us to be our backup guitarist? if not that's completely fine but if you can can you please reply and we will give you our location and phone number so we can talk about the tour,
love,
nick, matt, jamie and alex"

no. fucking. way. i quickly replied:
"dear nick,matt,jamie and alex,
i would love to take this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in being your backup guitarist,
i don't really get up to any shit anyway so i would love to do it.
love,
audrey xoxo"
then i hit send.

i started panicking saying:
"what if they don't want me swearing?!"
"why did i send 'xoxo'?!"
"once in a lifetime?! they were probably offering the opportunity to everyone!"
until the 3 dots turned into a message.
"dear audrey,
thank you for accepting our offer, you were exactly what we were looking for,
the address is —————
our phone number is —————
if you could meet there at 12:30pm tomorrow so we can talk about the tour?
love, the arctic monkeys"

"dear arctic monkeys,
okay i will definitely be there tomorrow if you want i can bring coffee?
love, audrey"

"yes please!"
oh my god they're not typing formally anymore?!- i thought
as i took screenshots of the chat and send it to my best friend, grace she couldn't believe her eyes "o-m-g! of course you did the good thing by saying yes!"
