Soundtrack for the winter

CHAPTER SIX

🎸

How could she be so.. So rude?

And annoying, stubborn, and so troublesome!

She was driving me crazy - Her feistiness always made me want to throw my guitar at her or squeeze the life out of her. I swear if she ever talked to me like that again or insult me in public, she was going to regret it.

I strode towards the huge building with my phone by the side of my ear, awaiting the person on the other line. The automatic-operated doors of the stadium slid open and I stepped in, relishing the cold air of the building.

"Hello?"

"Gian. You reaching?"

My friend responded on the other line while I stealthily slid into the lift just before it closed. Three girls in their workout outfits stood there talking loudly, and all their chattering seized as they set their eyes on me.

All of them gasped at the same time, forcefully pulling me towards them, a little arguing here and there on who should take a selfie with me first.
Yes, I actually counted.

"Yeah, I'll meet you there." I spoke to Gian on the phone and quickly ended the call, as a petite brunette girl with and blonde highlights put up her phone and all if us smiled into the camera. The loud click from the phone was heard and she thanked me. The lift doors opened with a 'ding' and I stepped out, waving back to the girls.

Here In the basement is where I usually hang out with the boys besides the music room, just to work out. Singing can be hard work, you know?

I walked over to a bench where Nigel and Van are seated. A thin layer of sweat covered both their bodies and clearly they had already started some training.

"Hey," Van greets and the usual seriousness of his face slowly turned into a small, smirk. I immediately knew the reason towrds the reaction. I frowned at him and he shakes his head chuckling.

I walk over to a treadmill with my towel slung over my shoulder. As soon as I stepped up I straight away increased the speed.

After about twenty minutes of running at a constant rapid pace, I went faster before slowing down and eventually came to a halt.

I breathed heavily as I went over to the weight lifters and layed down, catching a breath. I quickly wiped my face with the towel and prepared to lift the weights. Just as I was about to, Gian came walking in. I stopped because he looked like he was going to mention something which was either really boring or very interesting.

"Hey." We greeted him as he walked over to the group.

"Hey," he panted. "Guys wanna check out the ice skating rink?"

"Have you been learning how to ice skate?" Nigel snickered with Van and I nodded at Gian to continue.

"No, I did not. It's the new girl, the one with the weird name. She's upstairs."
