the summer (a Mikey Fusco Love Story)

chapter 4

I didn't dream about him last night. It was weird. I did have a dream however, but it was about my friends back home.

Hannah and Mckay were my best friends and it was depressing thinking about them. I needed to be there for Hannah this summer, she was going through a tough time and really needed me, which is another reason why I absolutely hate my parents for doing this to me. Let me tell ya my parents have perfect timing on everything.

My other friend, Mckay, is a blonde. She kind of looks like Ashton. She is perfect,in fact I look up to Mckay. This summer Mckay was going to New York to stay because she had been offered a great opportuny to sing with some great people. She has everything.

I need new friends. enough said.

My phone went off while I was in the shower, normally I wouldn't answer it but today I hoped it would be someone else. Maybe noname (which is what I'm calling him now.) but it wasn't him it was my parents. They had received my letter and said I could tryout for ICON. Which was great because the tryouts were tomorrow.

"Where are you going?" Ashton asked me curious of where I was going when I opened the door to leave.

"Tryouts." i said shuting the door behind me not giving her a chance to respond. It wasn't what she wanted to hear anyway. I'm sure she wanted to hear something about him.

I started walking down the street when I heard tire slowing down and stopping right beside me, I was determined not to turn my head. Oh my god. please let it not be a rapist. please, please.

"Hey" a familiar voice said from inside the car.

I turned my head, to find that he was talking to me.

Well it wasn't a rapist but if he was a rapist I would totally be fine with it. Oh My God, I can't believe I just said that. I would totally not be fine with that, I had morals.

"you want a ride Lauren?" he asked me and I snickered because I forgot that's what he thought my name was.

"Sure. Why not?" I said hopping into to the silver minivan.

"Oh and nice suntan you got there." he laughed looking at my raccoon eyes, from where my sunglasses were.

I quickly threw on some sunglasses so it wasn't noticeable.

"ya, I fell asleep." I said like he didn't already know, because I didn't know what else to say to that.

"Oh I know, and you're quite the snorer." he said and we just laughed because I knew I was a bad snorer. I had been since I was little, so bad that when my friends slept over my mom provided them with earplugs.

We didn't talk much on the way to ICON but that's okay because it's not really that long of a ride. Down the road and one left turn and you are pretty much there.

"Good Luck." he said as we headed into the building heading off towards his friends.

Man it was awkward being the newgirl. No friends, or even anyone I knew. I stood in the corner all by myself hoping that someone, anyone would come talk to me.

"Hi, I'm Sarah." a pretty brunette said. She looked like she was a little younger than me.

"I'm Kalen."  I said glad to actually have someone to talk to." I'm new in town"

Another girl walked up. Probably someone who knew Sarah. "Hi Sarah" she said

"Alexis, this is Kalen." Sarah said introducing us to each other.
