"Manage me, I'm a mess. Turn a page, I'm a book, half unread"

I woke up to my phone blaring All Time Low. Ugh. Taylor.

"Hello." I say sleepily.

"HEY! Finally you answer. I'm just barely about to board the plane with Oli." She replied a little annoyance in her voice.

"Ugh. You're bringing Oli. Really?" I sigh, she goes everywhere with him now. And yes, she's dating the oh-so-famous Oliver Sykes of Bring Me The Horizon.

"Yes really. Now get your ass up and get ready. We'll be there in a couple hours!" And with that, she hung up. I groan as I push my warm pokemon blanket off me and slide off my oh so comfy bed. Before I start to choose my outfit for the day, I make my way to Brooks room. We had the same day off, since it's Thursday. 

I throw one of her old stuffed animals at her that was on the floor near her door. She groaned as it hit her in the head.

"Whaaa." She whined. 

"You're coming with me to pick up Taylor. She's bringing Oli and I don't wanna be stuck with both of them alone! Get your ass up and get ready." I tell her. I heard her groan, again, as I walk away from her room back to mine. I pick out a cookie monster shirt, and some basketball shorts. Before I decide to put my shoes on, since I'm not leaving quite yet, I decide to head downstairs to make some morning ramen. 

"Why do I have to come with you again?" I hear Brook whine as she came into the room still in her pajamas.

"Because she has Oli with her, and I don't wanna be a third wheel. Plus, we're probably gonna all hang out anyway." I replied. She gave me a look knowing I made a point. She headed towards the fridge and took out her brownies. 

"Oh! I forgot you made those last night! How'd they turn out?" I ask, about to get one but she smacks my hand away.

"No. No brownies for you yet. And they turned out like all my brownies turn out, AMAZING." She said proud of herself. I sigh. I went over to the bar and started eating my ramen. 

"You better get ready dude. Tay called and said they were just barely getting on the plane." I told her. She nodded and slouched up stairs. 

-----------------------------------------------------

On the drive to the airport Brook and I were blasting out to Fall Out Boy. 

"I SAID, I, DON'T, CARE. I DON'T CARE, I DON'T CARE" We were screaming driving down the highway. 

Then she turned the radio down to talk to me, but the music was still playing but not as loud.

"So,that Avenged Sevenfold concert.." She started to mention.

"Yeah, what about it?" I said focusing on the road.

"How badly do you wanna go?" I didn't even have to look at her to know that she was smirking. 

"Really? You know how much I love them." I replied shooting her a glare.

She started laughing. I looked at her funny.

"What?" I asked, cocking my eyebrows at her. 

"Nothing." She smiled. Sometimes I don't know about that girl. But hey, I live with her.

We arrived at the airport a little early, so we just waited at the pick-up area for about 30 minutes. I texted Taylor so that she would know where we were. She knew airports like the back of her hand so even if she didn't understand the text, she would still probably know where we were. I sighed. I was still tired from waking up early. Dammit Taylor, why'd she have to get on the early flight from London. 

"Ginger ho!" Brook called out and pointed towards a tall tattooed covered guy and a ginger petite girl. That was Taylor and Oli of course.

I jumped out of the drivers seat as Brook jumped from the passenger side. We bolted towards her! 

"TAYLOOOOOORRRRRRR!" We shouted. She started running towards us, letting go of Oli and dropping her bags. 

"Mexican, Banana Pants!" She called out. (Oh yeah, I'm a quarter mexican by the way!) 

We immediately crashed into each other! The three best friends were finally reunited! Tay had been gone for a full month and 2 weeks. It's about damn time she came home for a while. Oli slowly walked over smiling. I'm glad he's happy. I don't really listen to his band, neither does Brook, but Tay does, and he keeps her happy, therefore he keeps me happy. 

"Long time, no see Sykes." I chuckle hugging him. Sykes and I aren't really close, but when I met him he was nicer than I thought. But he's pretty chill and not as protective or stupid as any other of Tays exs. 

He replied with a laugh and a shrug. Like usual. After all the greetings and hugs we picked up the rest of their luggage and put it in the trunk of my benz. Brook hopped back in the passenger seat, me in the drivers. and Tay&Oli in the backseat. 

"So." I try to start a conversation right off the bat. "Are you gonna be here for the rest of Warped?" I question Tay as I look at her through my rear view mirror. 

"Matter of fact, yes I am." She smirked. "And BMTH is playing the rest of warped, and after Warped, we're headed to Soundwave Festival in Austrailia at the end of Ausgust or begining of September. So I'll be home for, at most 2 or 3 weeks when warped is over!" She said excitedly.

"About time you'll be home for a good amount of time!" Brook exclaimed. I kept driving, happy knowing my best friend was home again.
