Chapter 1 – Early Mornings
Something was shaking. The world? I opened one of my eyes and saw one of my best friend’s faces. Nope, it was just me; I was being shaken. At that moment, all my other senses started working and the world came in at full blast.
“Emily get up! You aren’t even ready! We have to leave in 10 minutes!” One of my best friends Brooke spoke too harshly for this early in the morning.
“Broooooooke, it’s so early. Go away.” I mumbled pulling my covers over my head.
“No! It’s already 1! Get your ass out of bed, Kate will be here soon!” I suddenly felt very cold. I opened my eyes to find Brooke standing at the end of my bed with a wide smirk holding my covers. “Get. Up.”
“Okay, I’m up. Give me a minute.” I raised my hands in surrender before running them through my hair. “The show doesn’t even start until 6.”
“Yeah but this is my favourite band! I want to be there early! Maybe we’ll see them doing sound check.” She explained sitting down on my bed as I searched for clothes. Deciding on some dark jeans and an Imagine Dragons t-shirt my dad had gotten me, I went into the closet to change.
“I thought my band was your favourite!” I whined trying to change without falling over.
“Well yeah, but I can see you dummies anytime, this is 5SOS's first trip here!” I could hear the overpowering excitement in her voice.
“What the hell is a 5SOS?” I mumbled pulling my t-shirt over my head and walking to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
“5 Seconds of Summer, you idiot! Kate and I have only been going on about them for the past month!” I spit in the sink and looked at her in the mirror.
“I think I would have remembered that.” I said smiling; it would be hard to forget how often I had heard about the band of four boys in the last while. “Wait didn’t Derek, Alex and I cover one of their songs? That song with the slower chorus?”
“You mean Try Hard?” she asked raising an eyebrow.
“Yeah! I really liked that one, do you think they’ll sing it? I’d really like to hear how they do it.” Brooke was about to reply when a horn blared outside and distracted her train of thought.
“Kate’s here, let’s go!” I had just finished putting on a light coat of mascara when she grabbed my arm and started dragging me towards my door. I grabbed my sandals off the shelf as we passed it and she slammed my door behind us. She let go of me halfway to the car,
“Shotgun!” I was left to walk myself to the car and get in the back sluggishly. I saw Kate’s smiling face look at me through the mirror.
“Early morning, eh? There’s a chocolate chip muffin and French vanilla in the cup holder beside you.” Kate said laughing and starting the car. I grabbed the muffin immediately taking a bite.
“Kate have I ever told you I love you?” I asked, mouthful of muffin.
“Hey what about me?” Brooke piped from the front seat.
“Wait until I’ve got food in me, then ask again Brooke.” I said jokingly taking another bite of my muffin. Suddenly something occurred to me, “Brooke how the hell did you get into my house?”
A/N: I’m finally inspired to write again J I’m really excited about this book; I have most of it planned out! I’ve got some scenes that I love written out already for later on. Feel free to leave a comment and tell me what you think; the title might change as the story progresses so watch out!
