Don't Let Me Go

Ordinary Life

Ordinary. Everything was ordinary. That was the way Andrew liked it.

No fangirls. Nobody bowing at your feet. Just ordinary life. No one constantly calling your na-

"Andrew!"

At least not most of the time.

"What is it?" He asked his roomate Dylan.

"Me and the boys are going out to the lake in a bit. You wanna come with?"

He thought it over for a while.

Go down to the lake and hang with a bunch of randoms. Or....sit home and zone out to Tyler, the Creator.

The answer was pretty obvious.

"I'll pass on that. You guys go have fun without me. Take the bimmer, just don't wreck my car or get it impounded because of you driving like an idiot."

"Don't worry bro. I'll treat it like Kate Upton and Selena Gomez are riding with me."

"I'd hate to see what that looks like after their done riding with you. I can see it now. 'Breaking news. Celebrities Selena Gomez and Kate Upton found dead in a terrible car crash. The driver Dylan Macintosh also found dead. Dylan was reported to have been going 118mph when he saw a deer and swerved to miss it which resulted in the car flipping and colliding with a giant oak tree and killing them all instantly'."

"Th-that was dark as hell! How the hell did you even think of all that!?"

"Ehhh. I guess too much Tyler. That was dark as hell now that I think about it. Ehhh."

"I'm....I'm gonna leave now before I have to leave in a body bag. After I get back we can head to that ice cream shop you love so much. My treat."

Andrew just gave him a blank look. A few seconds passed and no one spoke a word.

"What?" Dylan said.

"How is it your treat if you're driving my car?"

"Well I am paying aren't I? That should be enough."

"Still driving my car!"Andrew yelled.

But he immediately regretted it after seeing the sad look that crossed his friends face.

'I always forget the situation he's in. Not everyone came up with a silver spoon in their mouth. And me always reminding him. What kind of friend am I?'

"Hey Dylan. You know I'm just joking, right bro? All good harmless fun. I appreciate you taking me to my favorite spot in the world and paying for it. I'm sorry if I made you sad."

After his apology he walked up and hugged his best friend. At first he thought Dylan wasn't going to hug back and was about to let go, but then he felt Dylan lift his arms and hug him back in a nice and tight bro hug.

"Its okay bro. Its just the fact that you give me so much stuff and I haven't really given back to you because of certain....circumstances. This is the least I can do to give back to you."

"I know and I really appreciate that. You're the best bro a friend could ask for. Now go ahead and go to the lake and hang with those randoms. After the ice cream shop we'll go skate around town."

"Sounds like a plan. Don't worry about the car. I'll take care of it."

"I know you will."

And with that Dylan left. After making sure his friend had left, Andrew flipped through his collection of vinyl records which consisted of albums dating back all the way to the 50's.

He couldn't get rid of his love for classic materials. He just wasn't as futuristic as everyone else was. Everybody else was about driving Lamborghinis or Ferraris, but him, he was about the BMW's. Not the newer models but the ones from way back when. His BMW e30 was the most expensive thing he owned if you didn't count the collection of vinyl records.

'I still think that guy cheated me out of my money. Two-thousand up front and the car was rusty all over so that cost me a couple six-thousand to find new parts and everything. That guy is so lucky money wasn't really a problem.'

After going through all the shelves of albums he finally found it.

'Tyler the Creator's Wolf. I fell in love with this one from the beginning.'

He placed it on the record table and immediately was greeted with the familiar piano notes of 'Wolf'.

"Time to get lost." He said to himself. And with that being said he plopped down on the soda and instantly lost himself.
