Blake's P.O.V.

So after school Ben, Hunter, Tate and I hop into my jeep and drive to Hunter's house, Hunter giving me the directions of course. We get there and I see a pretty decently sized house. By that I mean it was pretty big. I mean dang. It had to have had at least five bedrooms. That's a lot compared to my two roomed house. It was white on the outside with dark blue shudders and a dark blue door to match them. Their was a garden surrounding the porch that looked like it had taken forever to grow out so perfectly. His house literally left me speechless as I put the jeep in park and we all get out. I'm sorry I just can't get over how good this house looks on the outside alone.

"You coming or are you just gonna gawk at my house all day?" Hunter asked with cocky humor playing at his words.

I look at the ground and rub the back of my neck in embarrassment. 'Wow way to be a complete creep Blake,' I mentally scold myself. Deciding I've wasted enough time I start walking to the house. I walk inside and look around trying to keep it kinda short being that I stared at the outside forever.

The inside of the house was simple but at the same time beautiful. The living room had deep red walls that really looked warming and inviting. The furniture consisted of brown leather couches and white assets here and there. In the center was a big flat screen T.V. with surround sound that I bet would be perfect for watching a MLB game on.

The guys led me down stares to what I'm guessing was the basement. It looked like Hunter's personal man cave. 'Lucky,' I thought. Band posters were every where, some even signed by the band members. 'Once again, lucky.'

I look around and see a room to the left that had a sign on it saying in bold letters: 'KEEP OUT!!! HUNTER'S ROOM!!!' So he lives in the basement, that's cool. I continue to look around and see the guys enter another room and I follow them inside. I see instruments all around with speakers attached. Hunter had his own band room. 'Sweet!'

"Your all in a band?" I ask with surprise written across my face.

"Yeah, you play anything?" Ben asks me as he walks over to an electric base.

"Well I play electric guitar," I rub the back of my neck,"... and sing."

"You sing!?" Hunter enthusiastically asks, "do you write songs?"

"Yeah why?"

"Please join the band man? We really need some lead vocals 'cause I'm not doing too well, I scream better than I sing," Ben pleads with his hands together.

"Sure. Why not!"

"The band is complete!!!" Tate, who is sitting at the drums, yells at the top of his lungs happily throwing his fists in the air. We all laugh at his sudden outburst.

"So do you have any songs with you?" Hunter asks.

"No they're all at home, sorry."

"Nah, don't be we can just do a few covers this time."

"Alright."

"So I think Blake should pick a song!" yells Tate still at the drums.

"Sounds good to me. What song do you want?" Ben asks me as Hunter walks to his electric guitar.

I think for a minute what song I want to do, when it hits me. "Do you guys know 'I Hate Everything About You' by Three Days Grace?"

They all nod in response, and we begin playing as I sing the lyrics:

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet

Every roommate kept awake
By every sigh and scream we make
All the feelings that I get
But I still don't miss you yet

Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

Every time we lie awake
After every hit we take
Every feeling that I get
But I haven't missed you yet

Only when I stop to think about it

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

Only when I stop to think about you,
I know
Only when you stop to think about me,
do you know?

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?
You hate everything about me
Why do you love me?

I hate
You hate
I hate
You love me

I hate everything about you
Why do I love you?

The whole time I sang that song I thought about my dad. How he could be me senseless, but I still loved him only because he's my dad.

"Great song choice man!" yelled Ben happy with how good we all sounded together.

The night carried on just like that choosing songs, playing them, then we took a break ate and watched tv while we just talked and hung out.

***Writer Note***

So I'm sorry it's so short guys, but a lots happened. Also- I know I put this on my message board- on November 18th the 10 year anniversary of my mom's death is coming up so light a candle for her.

Btw if you did not read the last "chapter" then I will repeat what it now says. The character list is between chapters

Anyway good news time. My aunt is taking me to the Breaking Benjamin, Shinedown concert on November 13th and I cannot WAIT!!!!!!

Picture of Blake attached to this chapter. I'm having a hard time find a good picture to match Tate, Ben, Hunter, Kate and, Chase. I guess I just made them too detailed. Jay though I have a few options but I don't know which one to choose or if any of them match good enough. So any way if any of you find a picture of someone who you think match any of the characters on the character list send them to me through a private message. it would help a lot. Thanks.

I am going to try my hardest to update by the 18th for reasons that you'll see, but it'll probably happen later than that because you guys already know I'm not good at updating when I say I will. I'm so sorry for that btw.

Ok I'm done
