the first day was a bit of a blur, the only thing i can really describe is meeting stephanie. i got to know her a lot better and i learned she also likes a lot of the bands i like, who her crush is, why she dyed her hair and why she has piercings. i got my locker too, which is only three lockers away from her's.
now it's the second day, and i'm already miserable. i walk into english, sit next to stephanie and we start talking, as usual.

when it was finally break i was so tired. i walked to my locker to get my things for the next three classes. standing in the hallway, i see the groups of kids that are normally sitting there or just talking move to the sides and make a pathway for four guys. stephanie walks next to me and pulls me aside so i wouldn't get in their way. all the girls were so in love with them, and the guys admired them... that's a bit weird.
"hey stephanie?"
"yeah?"
"who are they?" i question, motioning towards four guys walking down the hallway.
"the four most popular, coolest people in school. michael clifford, luke hemmings, calum hood, and ashton irwin." she explains
"oh, so that's who michael was. wait which one was he?"
"the one with the red hair."
"of course he's that one, he has piercings, tattoos, and dyed hair. perfect for you." i said, winking at her
"hey stop it!" she said, laughing and hitting me playfully.
"wait so who were all the others?" i question.
"the one with the lip piercing and blonde hair is luke, the one who's kiwi and has dark brown hair is calum, and the one who has a lot of muscles and longish wavy hair is ashton." she answers, looking back in their direction.
"all the girls love them and have crushes on them, and all the guys admire them like they're their heroes..." she says.
"wait so what is so special about them? what makes them so amazing?" i ask
"well first off they're hot as fuck. but second off, they're all in a band together.. they're really good actually!" she smiles
"what's the name of their band?"
"5 seconds of summer, or as everyone pronounces it, 5 sauce. NEVER pronounce it 5 es oh es, because everyone who cares even the smallest amount about them will get mad, including me." she says, smiling and laughing lightly.

i had my fifth period class with steph, so we just walked to our lockers together and put our things away.
we walked to the cafeteria, and i just grabbed an apple and a coke. at least half of it is healthy right?
we sat down at an empty table and started just talking about some things we like, opinions on certain things, just typical things like that. then four figures all took seats next to us, michael on steph's right, calum on her left, then luke to my right and ashton to my left. i look at all of them, luke looking like he could care less that he was here just texting someone on his phone and the rest look interested in talking to us.
"uhhh..." i speak up. "what do you guys want?"
"you guys looked kinda bored, so we just wanted to talk and make you more cheery" michael says, smiling.
"well we don't need any cheering up, we're fine together. can you leave..?"
i say with a bit of an attitude, not really meaning it but i'm too lazy to correct myself.
luke (i think?), scowls and spits,
"guys i told you we shouldn't have came over here. she's just gonna bitch at us."
"oh and you would know that how? we have like two classes with each other. i doubt you even know my name." i raise my voice slightly, glaring at him.
"meghan wright." he says calmly.
"still. just because you know my name doesn't mean you know me."
"luke just stop being a dick. we'll leave, but we really wanted to invite you to our party this saturday." ashton said.
"we? we means a group decision. i never agreed to this." luke spoke, making it very obvious he hates me. what the hell did i do? i've never even talked to him before this, why is he so judgemental?
"shut up luke, the party isn't at your house and it was 3 vs 1 in the vote."
"whatever." luke mumbles, going back to using his phone.
"so it's at calum's house, i can text you the address, just put your number in my phone." ashton said, handing me his phone with a new contact option already in place.
i added my number and texted myself 'it's ashton' so my number would be saved in his phone.
"okay thanks. so we'll see you saturday with stephanie?" he looked at me and steph. how does he already know her name?
"maybe." i said. i looked at michael, who was staring at stephanie. but of course steph was to oblivious to notice.
"okay cool. c'mon guys" he spoke and walked away, with michael, calum, and luke following.
"meghan we're going to that party." steph demanded, looking me fiercely in the eyes.
"i said maybe"
"pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" steph begged, giving me puppy dog eyes.
"ugh fine." i gave in rather easily, i'm way to tired to even go against her in the slightest.
"yAY!!! i'm so excited!" she cheered.
fuck i'm gonna have to find a dress..
"hey can we go shopping afterschool today?" i asked.
"yeah sure, lemme just tell my mom so she doesn't worry."
"okay." i smiled.
