And So We Met (A Toby Turner Fan Fiction)

Chapter Four

Taylor's POV

I found a supermarket near me with the help of Siri, and reached my new home the same time Kalel pulled into my driveway. I quickly put my things away, grabbed my purse, and hopped into Kalel's car. "So where are we going?" I asked.

"Mmmm, IHOP."

"Alrighty then," I said, and turned on the radio. "What's a good station to listen to out here?"

"I don't really listen to the radio, I just plug in my iPod and listen to that. The cord is right there if you want to plug in your phone," she said, pointing to the wire that was connected to her car.

"Okay," I said, and plugged in my iPhone. I perused my music collection and then finally decided on Thinking About You by Calvin Harris.

"I've never heard this song before."

"I just heard it a few days ago on Spotify."

"Spotify, where new music is discovered and loved."

"You got that right Kalel."

"Hey, do you have Drunk by Ed Sheeran?"

"How could I not?!?!"

"Well then put it on!" Kalel exclaimed. I picked the song, and we sang along together until we reached IHOP.

Once we were at IHOP, we were seated in a booth instantly, right across from my new neighbor.

"Oh, Taylor, I forgot to tell you, Anthony and I are having a party tonight in your honor at our place."

"What? So soon?"

"Well yeah. We want you to at least know some people before Playlist Live. You ARE going to Playlist Live, right?"

"Yeah but I've met some of these people before."

"But that was at conventions when there's no time for anything. This is just a mixer, a more relaxed and friendly setting. You'll do fine, I promise," Kalel reassured me. I don't know why I'm so nervous. It's just a little get together. We ordered and ate our food and talked about the gathering some more.

"I can wear what I'm wearing now, right?"

"Of course. They're not going to judge you, Taylor. They're all very excited to meet you. A lot of them already watch your videos."

I looked down at my current outfit, which consisted of my beige flats, blue skinny jeans, my Mickey Mouse sweater, a silver ring that says 'believe' on it, my black purse, owl earrings, and flower headband. I thought about it and decided I'd change later.

Kalel and I paid for our meal and left. She dropped me off at my place and reminded me about the party.

"Don't forget, party at mine and Anthony's at 7."

"Alright, I'll be there," I said, closing the door. I waved goodbye and watched her drive away. I turned to open my door and was hit with a wave of exhaustion. "Woah." I checked my phone for the time, and was surprised to see that it was only 3pm. 'Why am I so tired?' I thought. 'It's only three! Oh wait, there's that three hour time difference. Guess I'd better take a nap then. Don't want to be falling asleep at my own party.' I made my way to my empty bedroom, and laid down for a nap.
