Ch.1 [P!ATD] She Had the World

Ch.13 [P!ATD] When the Day Met the Night

Ivy's POV

After I got all settled in I realized Vicki's place hadn't changed much. I had my own room. My bed fit, I had my dresser, and pictures hanging. My MacBook was sitting on my desk and my clothes were put away. We set the Wii up in the livingroom so we can all play it. I don't mind that at all. I'm glad Vicki took me in when I didn't even have to ask. I was gonna start looking for an apartment of my own until she stepped in. I think Brendon prefers it too so that neither me or Vicki will be completely alone when they're on tour. I was sitting on my bed watching a movie on my computer when Vivki knocked.

"Sup?!" I smiled. "Roomie!"

"Not much Roomie! Wanna go out tonight?"

"With the guys?" I asked.

"No. Just me and you. Not that I don't love Brendon but he doesn't know how to share."

"Well niether does Ryan." I laughed. "But sure. Where are we going?"

"Let's just drive around. We can grab some fast food and just drive."

"That actually sounds pretty fun! I'm down. Let me change."

"Sure thing."

She shut the door and I flew to my closet. Replacing my sweats with shorts and putting my hair into a pony tail. I walked out and saw she had just taken the dogs out before we left. Good idea. When she got back I tossed the keys to her and we left. We grabbed some In'n'out and drove around.

"Veggie burger me."

I reached over and fed her a bite of her burger while she drove. I munched on my regular hamburger while devouring fries.

"So... How did you and Ryan meet?" I asked with a mouth full of fries. "You never told me."

"Oh yeah!" She said with a mouth full of veggie burger. "I remember that!"

"I'd be afraid if you didn't!"

"Do you want to know or not!?" she laughed.

"Please do tell."

"Okay well it was right after you moved in with asswad. Well I was at work. Ya know that music store on the corner of Fourth and Freemont."

"Uh huh."

"Well one day my boss told me that we were gonna host a CD signing for an up and coming band that just released their new record. I felt a tinge of excitement. A new band coming in. And you know I get perks at that store! Well she said they wouldn't be in for a couple hours. I continued on with work like usual as the newbie worker cleaned and set up tables."

"That kid Julian?"

"Yeah! He quit now. But just as I finished ringing someone up this tall skinny guy walked in. He was walking around the aisles and flipping through CDs. He had this little fohawk. I tried not to look obvious while peeking from behind the register but I saw him smirking. He knew I was looking. He finally walked up to the counter with a CD. I asked him if he was ready and he said 'I sure hope so.' and I kinda became confused."

"What CD was he buying?" I asked totally sucked into the story.

"A Fever You Can't Sweat Out." She laughed. "He paid and he put the change in the tip jar. He walked out without another word. But he was smiling. I thought he was weird but so cute."

"Why is this so cute!?" I whined.

She smirked at me. "'Cause Ryan and I are totes adorbs."

"You're right. I've never seen you so happy."

"Well I thought nothing else after he left. That is until... He walked back in again. With three friends. Your Brendon being one of them. Spencer being another. And Brent being the last."

"Brent?"

"Brent was their bassist before Jon. You would've met him if he wasn't with his family in Ohio right now."

"Oh."

"But I saw Ryan and he waved at me. I waved back and I saw Brendon whisper to him. Spencer giggled as they all looked at me. Brent gave me this weird look but he's an ass. Well Ryan and the guys signed their fans stuff, posed for photos and I noticed people were walking out with the same CD that he bought. I was confused. By the time they finished I saw them huddle together and then shove Ryan out of the group and towards the counter."

"Oh god." I laughed.

"Brendon, Spencer, and Brent spread out and looked at stuff in the store. Ryan walked up to me and smiled. He was shy but introduced himself. I smiled back at him and we talked. And suddenly Zack walked in telling them they had to go. Ryan handed me the CD he bought earlier and walked out. The guys filed out and I noticed them all shoving Ryan around. When I got home I took the CD and pit it on. It didn't sound bad at all. I took the case and saw the booklet. Unwanted to see if the lyrics were in there. Instead it was his phone number!"

The fries inwas eating went flying out the window as I looked at her. "That's so cute! Oh my god!"

She was laughing as I got flipped off by the people passing us on our way into the parking garage to our place.

"I called him a couple days later."

We walked upstairs and walked in.

"And when I met up with him for a date I asked him why he put his number in there and-"

"And I said that I wanted to seen if she really thought I was interesting or some creep." Ryan said walking up to us. "I knew if she was really interested she'd look in that booklet."

He wrapped her in his arms and hugged her. He gave her a welcome home kiss.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Well I thought after a quick practice I'd stop by, but you weren't here. So I waited."

I smiled. "You two have fun. I'm gonna go take a shower and go to bed." I smiled.

"Sleep tight Ivy." Ryan smiled.

"Sweet dreams." Vicki smirked.
