"Oh. My. God. Evie!" Becca exclaims right in my ear.
"What?" I ask irritated.
"R5 is coming!"
"What?" I ask in shock.
R5 been on tour for the past year, overseas, across America, back over seas.
Their last album is a huge success. I didn't think they would ever come back to LA.
"Are they performing?" I look over her shoulder at her phone.
"Yes."
"Where?"
The last time they came back to LA it was on a Tuesday, and I was devastated because my mom wouldn't let me drive two hours to see them on a school night.
Becca hands me her phone. "I'm going to get another cheeseburger, do you want anything?"
"You just finished your lunch," I look at her in amazement.
Becca's five foot four and a half, and maybe a buck twenty-five soaking wet. She eats like a horse. Shoot! She could probably eat a horse and still want more.
"I'm still hungry!" Her green eyes go wide with innocent.
I shake my head. "I don't know where you put it."
Becca laughs, "Maybe I have an alien inside me that eats everything before I can digest it, leaving me starving."
"I doubt it," I mutter. "You just have a fast metabolism."
She frowns, "I guess it could be that."
I laugh as she walks away from our table, picking up her phone to look at the announcement.
'R5 is coming home After eighteen months on the road they will wrap up their tour performing six shows in California.
"We love touring, but it'll be nice to be home." Ross Lynch, lead vocalist, says.
"It's always nice to go back home." Rydel Lynch, keyboardist and vocals, adds.
When asked what they would do with their downtime, they each responded:
Rydel - Go shopping
Ratliff - visit with friends and family
Rocky - go surfing
Ross - write new material
Riker - catch up on some reading
Look for R5 to perform near you. Tickets go on sale Friday.'
"We have to go," Becca declares with a mouth full of burger.
"Ew! Stop talking with your mouth full."
"Yes mom," she mumbles between bites.
"Of course we'll go. Maybe we'll get lucky and it'll be on spring break and we can go to a couple of shows."
"That would be cool!" She agree.
***
After school I head home by myself. Becca has a project due and needed to go to the library. I hate taking the bus home but we only have one car and mom needs it for work.
Becca usually takes me home but occasionally I have to take the bus. It's humbling knowing that I to once a freshman who took the bus everyday.
Thank god I would graduate in June.
Forty-five minutes later, I let myself in the front door, dumping my back pack right there.
I go to the kitchen and grab a bowl of chips and go to my room.
