Fall out boy we're touring around summertime 2007 they were hot and cramped in their small van / tour bus.
Pete was getting on everyone's nerves, as per usual, Joe and Andy were sick of it but not as much as Patrick was he was tired, angry (at Pete) and wanted to stop off and cool down somewhere unfortunately they'd been on the road for hours and would be for a while more."Pete can you please shut up?!" Patrick practically yells at him making joe and Andy side glance each other. Pete smiles at him as if he would actually listen to anyone. Andy pipes up "Patrick, try take a nap?" He said it so kindly but Patrick didn't care. He was stubborn at times.
Around thirty minutes later after Pete had been blissfully quiet staring out the window with his headphones on, all thanks to joes brilliant idea that he should 'shut up and listen to his sad shit' The bus broke down. Completely stopped in the middle of the road. Thankfully it was deserted and there were no other cars, however that also meant no other people.After they argued for what seemed like eons Andy helpfully pointed out that actually there was a small gas station not too far away from where the van was.
"Andy are you serious dude? That thing is miles away!" Pete complains
"Pete shut up for once, thank you for pointing it out, Andy" joe said with his slight lisp. Patrick says absolutely nothing as his dehydration and anger will only make things worse. He's storming out of the bus before anyone can say another word, making his way to the tiny gas station.Once inside the gas station Patrick's shoulders lose all tension in them as the air con slaps him in the face, and rest of his slightly sweating body.
He walks down the isle before noticing a girl standing at the counter.
Patrick gives her a weak smile as she gives him a bright one.
Patrick thought she was utterly stunning, even in her work uniform, yellow blue and grey collared shirt, with black pants and for some reason he'll probably never know a hat, she still looked good to him.
'Or maybe it was just her own accessory' he thought to himself after a bit of thinking it over as he went walking down the isles.
Once he had everything he had desired, water, snacks, more water... you get it .. he was standing in front of her, she was slightly taller than him he'd noticed. She also had black nail polish that was chipped on some nails, still Patrick didn't mind he noticed her other features like her freckles that scatter some pale some more prominent.It's only when he hears a "Hi" that he realises he's been staring for far too long. He blushes lightly as he dips his head down a bit, out of the shyness.
"Hey" He replies before looking back at her into her blue eyes, and he'd swear that he'd never seen anything like it, but maybe he was just a love struck puppy.
"This all for today?" She asks him kindly as she starts scanning his items and putting them into a bag for him. He nods "uh yeah, thanks" If Pete saw him now he'd tease him for this. Thankfully he isn't.
Patrick notices also, her name tag, it reads, Sarah. Patrick smiles a bit at that until he realises that she's waiting for him to pay so he clumsily hands her some cash that she puts into the register. "Oh, I completely forgot but my bands van broke down. It's not too far from here but it's not exactly close either" He explains she nods. "I have a phone here you could use to call someone?" She suggests.
Patrick nods. "That would be amazing, thank you." She smiles "it's no problem." For a moment there's a pause until he holds out a hand to her
"I'm Patrick, by the way." She takes his hand "I'm Sarah." She tells him
"The phones this way" she calls over her shoulder as she turns.After the short boy had used the phone in the gas station Sarah couldn't help but feel sad that he would have to leave as soon as someone came out to help him and his band. She was overly happy that such a sweet, cute boy had walked into the gas station on such a boring day though. "So" Sarah begins the start of a new conversation as they sit on the cold floor drinking refrigerator drinks. "What kinda music do you and your band play?" She looks at him.
He looks back at her and puts his drink on the floor
"We're not that good, really" He starts
"We kind of suck actually. A lot" He says nervously "oh c'mon I'm sure you aren't" Sarah smiles at him his face goes red, but that's from the heat. Totally.
"We uh we Play pop punk?" He shrugs
She leans closer, more interested
"Cool! I love that. So how many of you are there?" She asks him and he smiles a bit. She thinks it's hella cute. "Uh, four there is four of us. Including me." He tells her as her eyes light up with even more internet. He continues, "I'm the singer, my best friend Pete is our bassist his friend Joe is on guitar and our friend Andy is drums" He explains. She looks amazed. "That's awesome dude! I'm sure you guys are great" She smiles again at him before sipping her beverage.They talk for a few more hours whilst waiting for the handyman, Patrick's been excessively ignoring his phone beeping with messages from the band as he doesn't want to waste a singular second without his attention on the girl in front of him, well next to him,
"Aren't your band worried? They know you're here right?" She asks after another annoying beep from his phone.
"Yeah they know, they just act like children, especially Pete." Patrick sighs the girl nods in understanding.
"Well I sure hope you guys get wherever you're going safely." Sarah tells him and he thanks her.
A pause. "Hey uh Sarah?" Patrick asks. "Yeah?"
"Can i get your number maybe, you're a pretty cool chick" he says smoothly she laughs. Patrick thinks he's ruined it.
"Of course." She smiles pulling her phone out of her pocket before handing it to him.
He smiles gleefully as he types his number in before handing it back she makes his contact name 'Patrick<3' because she thinks he's adorable.Eventually Patrick has to leave the gas station and Sarah is alone again but not even 20 minutes after he'd left with his band and now fully working van he'd sent her message
'Wanna come 2 our show 2nite?:)'
