*Andy’s POV*

I got woken up by the sound of a vibrating phone. I slowly got up from the couch, looking for it. I couldn’t see it, though. Not on the table, not in my pockets. Where the hell could it be? I sighed and stood up. As I came back on my feet, I looked down, and there it was. I picked it up and looked at the screen, looking for the cause of the vibrating. It was a text from Jake, asking me if I wanted to go out and get some lunch. Lunch? How long have I been asleep? I checked the time, it’s 11 am. I’ve been sleeping for four hours, well, I guess I could use something to eat. I quickly typed a reply.

‘’Yeah, sounds good.’’

‘’Great, I’ll come and pick you up.’’ I laid the phone back on the table and went to the bathroom.  I looked into the mirror to check if I needed to redo the make-up and my hair. I looked awful, like something out of a bad horror movie. Eyeliner smeared all over my face and my hair was basically a birdsnest. I sighed one more time, got my shit together and cleaned my face, redid the eyeliner and my hair. I heard a car drive into the driveway and come to a halt. Great timing. I ran out of the bathroom, got my shoes on, shrugged on the denim vest, grabbed my keys and wallet. I walked over to Jake’s car and got in.

‘’So, where are we going?’’ I asked.

‘’The usual place.’

’‘’Okay.’’ We sat in silence until we got there.

At this little café-restaurant-thingy, we had a sandwich and a coke, talking and then, all of a sudden I got an idea for a song. I grabbed a napkin from the middle of the table.

‘’Jake, do you have anything to write with?’’ He just smiled at me and pulled a pen you of his pocket.

‘’I’ve learned, always have something to write with when I’m going to do stuff with you.’’

‘’Smart.’’ I said as he gave me the pen. I started to scribble down the song.

After a few minutes I looked up to see an amazed Jake looking at me.

‘’What?’’ I asked.

‘’You just hummed the whole thing. That was awesome, dude.’’ I did?

‘’But, you’ve seen me do that a hundred times.’’

‘’Yeah, but that was, like, an entire song right there.’’ I looked down on what I had just written, I guess he’s right.

‘’Guess you’re right.’’

‘’What do you say, we go back to my place and try it out?’’

‘’Sounds like a plan.’’ We payed the bill and got out to the car.

In the car, we were talking about the song and what we could do with it, how it should be and all that stuff. The light turned red at a traffic light and the car slowed down and came to a halt. After a short wait it turned green and the car drove forward again. At the middle there were a loud, sudden bang, pain rushing through my body and then everything turned black.
