It's 6 o'clock in the evening and Lucky makes his way over to Hayden's house.

As he approaches the front door, Hayden suddenly opens it, as if she knew he was going to come at that exact time.

"Hey..." Lucky says.

"Hey Luck!" Hayden replies with a big smile on her face.

"Why are you so happy?!" He smirks.

"Because... I'm having a good day, and someone is inside waiting to meet you so hurry your ass up!" She laughs and leads the way to her living room.

"Okay, chill out Hayden!"

As they both walk inside, Hayden's father's friend appears.

"You must be Lucky Blue. I'm Ricky Underwood." The man explains and offers to shake his hand.

"Um.. Hi." Lucky opines. "Nice to meet you. So... I heard you're hosting a concert this Friday night?" He asks out of proportion.

"As a matter of fact, I am! And Hayden here says you would love to participate in it. The both of you." He insists.

"She told you that? Yes we would, it'd be such a great opportunity!"

Ricky, Lucky and Hayden all sit down and close the door. Everything seems so unreal, Lucky's dream is finally going to come true. He has an endless smile on his face, he can't believe his life is about to change.

"So, you're a big fan on drumming I hear." Ricky says to Lucky.

"Indeed I am! It's my favourite thing to do. Ever." He replies with a smile.

"Well, I'm happy to say that your dream is about to come true. You and Hayden will be performing at my concert, arranged by me! Don't miss it, otherwise you'll be missing this once in a lifetime chance!" He chuckles.

"I won't!"

It's Thursday evening and Lucky gets back from school, he's nervous about the concert on Friday so he texts Emily about it.

Lucky:
[Hey Em, what's up? :)]

Emily:
[Not much, just doing homework, baby. What about you? X]

Lucky:
[Nervous. About tomorrow... I can't stop thinking about it. What if something goes wrong? .x]

Emily:
[Don't worry! You and Hayden will do great, I know you both will. I believe in you.]

Lucky:
[Thanks, I love you. So much.]

Emily:
[No problem. I love you too :) see you at school tomorrow! Bye.]

Lucky goes upstairs to his room and sits on his bed. Everything is quiet and he starts thinking about his future, the good things and possibly the bad things.

"Gah. I better sleep on it." He thinks to himself. "Tomorrow will hopefully be a better day..."
