You've Got A Shot

What is that annoying sound? Damnit. Make it stop. I think to myself as I roll over in my bed, trying to drown it out. Why is 'So Long Soldier' playing? "Alarm Clock!" I say with wide eyes as I throw my blankets off me. I look over at my phone on my dresser and mentally curse myself for sleeping through the first alarm. Now I'm late.

I run to my closet, hurriedly putting on lace Lilly shorts, a Vineyard Vines long-sleeved tee, and my Jacks. Then I skid into my bathroom to brush my teeth. Glancing at the clock, I decide to skip breakfast and grab my makeup bag and Kate Spade purse before skipping down the steps two at a time. I run out to my silver convertible and start the car.

After winging my eyeliner and adding my signature pink lipgloss at red lights, I park on the side of the street in the downtown area of the little place I live in. I sadly live in a suburb outside of New York City. I brush my hair out, letting it fall into its natural auburn waves, before sliding out of the car seeing as I was supposed to meet one of my best friends Alexia and her twin Asher about ten minutes ago, I'm surprised when I see the double set of ginger hair bouncing towards the music store, Alexia isn't one to be late.

I ran towards the two of them, sliding between groups of people and past others to try and catch them before they went in. When I was just behind the twins, with only one pair of people between us, I called out to them. "Alexia!" Of course, Alexia being deaf as shit, didn't hear me. "Ash! Wait up!" I ran, almost knocking into two idiots who stopped dead in their tracks and turned to look at me. I know I look like a mess, but do people really have to be so rude as to stare? I slide through the pair of people, one with curly, long brown hair, the other with bluish/lilac hair. I kept up my pace until I reached the twins and grabbed Alexia's arm making her jump. "You scared me!" She said, sighing in relief that it was just me. "You look tired," she continued. "No shit Sherlock." I rolled my eyes and Alexia shrugged my comment off. "Hey Lilly," Asher waved politely and I smiled back. "I've had the worst morning," I say and Alexia laughs lightly. "Yeah, what's so wrong with it?" "Everything." I mutter and Alexia drops the subject, knowing I didn't feel like talking about it. We continued towards the music store and stopped, looking at the bight neon lights illuminating the front of the building.

I'm looking through the vinyls trying to find All Time Low's "Dirty Work" because Kaitlyn's crazy parents found the copy I was lending her and broke it because it was like "the Devil's work" or some shit. "Why can't I find the fucking vinyl?" I mutter looking up to the ceiling only to find the vinyl on the top shelf. Why does the world hate me? I keep trying reaching it, but even when I'm on my tip-toes I can't reach the damn thing.

Michael POV

Ash and I walk into the music store and I decide to go look for the new All Time Low album while he gets new drumsticks. I find where they keep everything All Time Low and see the girl we bumped into us this morning. Now that I get a closer look I see how pretty she is. She's pale like me, has auburn hair, and light blue eyes. She's jumping up and down trying to reach a vinyl from the top shelf. I decide to reach over her and grab it for her. "All Time Low, huh? Buying it for somebody?" I ask. "No, it's for me." "Didn't think a girl like you would like that type of music." She looks slightly offended and mumbles a thanks and pushes past me.

So we've decided to try to do something different and include all of the boys instead of just one of their love lives.

Like the idea? Yes, no, maybe so?
