"Forever Unstoppable"
( A Carlos Story)
Chapter 1
Your P.O.V.
"Maci, hunny it's time to get up. You have work". I heard my grandma tell me while slightly shaking my arm. I turned over to see it was 6AM, I don't even get up this early for school. It was summer break so I decided to get a job at our local Starbucks down the street to save up for college. "I'm up, I'm up". I moaned. I pulled myself out of bed and put on my glasses. By the time I got down stairs breakfast was already on the table, but only set for two. "Grandma where is everyone"? I asked looking around. "Well, Jamie went to the mall to get her shirt for the concert, and your mom never made it home last night".
When she said that, I knew what had happened. My mom was a stripper, so when she didn't come home at night or if she did it was around 3 or 4 AM it was because a man took her back to his place. I never really got why she decided to be a stripper? Before my dad passed away my mom taught music at the high school that I graduated from, and where my sister goes to. But now, she's on a pole for 8 hours a day. And then there was my sister. She was just perfect, at least in my eyes. She had a love for music as well as I and just enjoyed life. She had plenty of friends, but never brought them home because of where we lived. It was a run down shack that we built up as a home. This was all we could afford after my dad died.
I finished eating and went upstairs to get ready. I put my uniform on and curled my hair just at the ends, to make it look like it was natural. I grabbed my stuff and headed out. I got inside my car and headed off. My car was a piece of junk, but it got me from point A to point B. This used to be my dads car, and in his Will he left it to me. With the money he did leave, my mom bought her a used to new car so she wouldn't have to ride the bus. I had to stop and get gas for tonight. Tonight was the night my sister actually got to see and meet her favorite band, Big Time Rush. She's been obsessed ever since they came out in 2009. I'm not going to lie, they were pretty adorable. Especially the latino one, which I think his name was Carlos?
I surprised her with the meet & greets on her 16th birthday last night. No, I didn't have the money to get them, but I was lucky enough to win them off a contest at work. I had been saving up my tips so Jamie could get a t-shirt and whatever she wanted to keep as a memory from the concert. I only had to work 4 hours today because we had to be at the arena at 3, so I had to have enough time to go home and get myself ready. It was already 7:55 when I got there, and my shift started at 8, so I practically ran in. Today was Friday which was usually our most busty day of the week, which I loved because he kept me from getting to bored.
We had a few customers come in that were regulars. They always ordered the same thing and at the same time. Then I noticed that a 2 huge tours buses pulled up, now this wasn't something you seen everyday. A few minutes later 4 young guys walked in, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing, it was Big Time Rush. They all smiled and I said, "Are you guys ready to order"? The blonde one smiled and said we'll take 4 Caramel Frappe's. I nodded and said "Your total is 12.95" He handed me the money and put a tip in the jar, and took their seats. I noticed Carlos staring at me when they were at the table, and then every now and then he would say something to James. Did he like me or something. I took them their Frappe's and Carlos said "You're very beautiful, if you don't mind me saying". I blushed big time and said "Thank you". God, I couldn't wait to tell Jamie this.
