An hour later i was packing up getting ready for the boy to pick me up, the one bad thing about this i don't even know his name. I sat there and waited for a couple of minutes until i saw a black car pull up and the boy got out of the drivers seat and smiled at me, before jogging over. He smiled at me and held out his hand for me to take, but i didn't instead i grabbed by guitar case and was about to reach for my batman backpack when he grabbed it, i looked up at him and he smiled at me throwing the backpack over his shoulders and carrying it for me "thanks" i said he nodded. He led me over to his car and he put my guitar and backpack in the back seats and opened the passengers door for me i smiled and got in and in the matter of seconds he was by his door sliding in and starting the car.
We were driving in silence for about 5 minutes when he decided to brake it "so what's you name?" he asked, i looked over at him to see him concentrating on the road, "Amelia, your?" i asked he smiled "Danny" he said i smiled and nodded, "how old are you?" he asked i sighed "17" i said simply he nodded "really? you look younger" he said i smiled "really how young do i look?" i asked not ever being told that i looked younger than i was. He shrugged "i don't know 15 maybe" he said i laughed "it's because i'm short isn't it?" i said he laughed with me and shrugged "maybe" he said. "How about you?" i asked he smiled "18" he said i nodded.
The rest of the ride was silent until he finally pulled up outside a coffee house. We both go out of the car and he walked over to me and grabbed my hand pulling me into the coffee house. We walked to the counter were the lady at the desk looked at Danny with a seductive smile or what i think it was meant to be. "What can i get you hun?" she asked he smiled "can i have a black coffee and what do you want?" he asked looking at me "um ice tea" i said he nodded and looked at the lady who nodded "coming' right up" she said winking before walking away. I tried to hold back my laughter at how she was acting and Danny must have noticed because he smiled down at me "what?" he asked i shook my head "you can't be serious, you didn't see that?" i asked he shook his head "come on she was totally trying to get you to notice her, she's into you, i even bet she'll put her number on your cup" i told him. He shook his head "don't be stupid, she's just being friendly" he said i laughed and shook my head.
When the lady came back with our cups she handed them to us and Danny handed her the money, "call me if you need anything" she said winking before we went and got a seat at one of the two seated table. We both sat down and i grabbed Danny's cup checking for her number and found it on the bottom, i smirked and handed the cup back to him "told you" i said he playfully glared and checked the bottom of his cup. He shrugged and drank his coffee.
"Why did you ask me here?" i asked after a couple of seconds in silence, he sighed and shrugged "i liked your voice" he said simply i shook my head "no come on there must be another reason, what did you want from me?" i asked in a serious tone. He sighed "look, i wanted to ask if you'd be interested in coming on tour with my band, and before you say anything let me explain. Me and my band the nearly dead's are going on tour in a couple of months and we've been talking about getting another singer, and i think I've found her in you, and I've already talked to the guys before i picked you up and because i recorded you when you were playing earlier i showed them the video and they loved your voice, and you would be able to stop singing on the streets and become famous with us" he explained. My eyes widened in shock of what he was asking, a couple of minutes must have gone by because the next thing i was seeing is Danny waving his hand in front of my face "why would you need another singer?" i asked he shrugged "we thought it would be better and it would sound better with the songs we've written" he said "why not ask one of your other band members to do it?" i asked he sighed "well to put it in the nicest possible way they all suck at singing" he said smiling. "So would you be interested?" he asked. I thought about it for a minute thinking about all the changes i could have in my life, i might actually be able to afford my own apartment, i would be able to stop singing on the streets i could get more clothes and maybe eat more than one meal a day. I smiled and nodded "i'd love to" i said, making him smiled even wider he jumped out of his seat and hugged me i smiled and laughed and hugged him back. "But first before i definitely agree fully on going with you guys i need to know more about you all, i'm not going into a band with complete strangers that could possibly kill me in my sleep" i told him he laughed and nodded. "Okay no problem, you can come over to my house tomorrow and we can all meet up, just tell me where to pick you up from" he said. And that made me frown he gave me a confused look "what's wrong?" he asked, i shook my head and smiled "nothing" i said.
We stayed at the coffee house for another half an hour until it was closing time, we both walked out and started to walk down the side walk not bothering to take his car just wanting to enjoy the fresh air, he said he could go back for his car later. We must have been walking for about half an hour when we got back to the park i was playing at earlier. "Do you live far from here?" he asked i frowned and shrugged he smiled "well let me walk you home" he said i shook my head. "That would be easier for you to do if i knew were home is" i told him, he gave me a confused look "what do you mean?" he asked i sighed "promise you won't hate me?" i said he nodded and we stopped walking "i don't have a home, i either sleep in a hotel depending on how much money i have or i sleep on that bench right there" i said pointing to the bench i was playing on. He gave me a shocked look "oh" he said simply, he thought about something for a minute and then a smile grew on his face "come live with me" he said i gave him a confused look. "What? What about you parent?" i asked not knowing if he still lived at home. He shrugged "they'll be fine with it, if they know your in the band" he said "they support our band and if one of the members are in trouble and need to stay out our house they'll be happy to help, and trust me we have more than enough space" he said. I nodded my head "well if that's okay, but i'll only be staying until i can afford my own place" i told him he smiled and nodded grabbing my hand and we ran back to his car.
By the time we were back there we were both out of breath and we got into his car, he turned to me and started the engine "you ready?" he asked i smiled and nodded. Really this day could not get any better.
