Chapter 10: Badass

Alex's pov

The next morning I woke up to Melody in my bedroom.

"Wake up Alex!" She exclaimed.

I groaned and put my pillow over my head as I tried to go back to sleep.

"Get up Alex! We gotta work!" She yelled as she jumped onto my bed.

"It's Tuesday we have to go to school Mel" I explained throwing a. pillow at her.

"Nope we're skipping today" she stated pulling on my arm to get me out of bed.

"Wait.. How did you get in?" I asked confused on how the hell she managed do get inside my house.

"Your dad let me in" she shrugged and continued pulling me toward my bathroom.

"Now take a shower our shift starts in an hour" she shoved me into the bathroom and shut the door behind me.

I sighed as I stripped from my clothes and turned on the hot water.

I climbed into the shower and smiled as I felt the water pour down my back.

I thought about telling Calum that I wasn't coming to school today, but I decided against it.

I finished getting ready and threw on a pair of skinny jeans and a baggy tee not giving a Fuxk what I looked like.

I headed downstairs and found Melody in my couch watching reruns of George Lopez.

"You ready to go?" I questioned her.

She nodded and turned off the tv as she got and made her way towards the door.

"So what exactly are we doing for work?" I asked curiously.

"Stacking CDs and vinyls as we watch some hot guys come in" Mel stated with a smirk.

"A music store?" I asked with a small smile.

"You betcha!" She exclaimed.

             ~~~~~~~~~

When we arrived at the music store we were greeted by the owner.

"Are you melody?" He questioned Mel.

She nodded.

"And you must be Alex" he pointed over at me.

"Yurp" I nodded.

"By any chance are you kids skipping school?" He asked with a smirk.

"I'm gonna be honest with you Bill we are" Mel told him.

He laughed and gave us both high fives.

"I like you guys already" he smiled.

We laughed and he went on to tell us what exactly we had to do.

It was a pretty easy job if you ask me and I was kinda glad we got it because I loved music and working around it in anyway was cool with me.

The day went by pretty quickly and there luckily wasn't that many customers that came in.

Just a few older guys looking for CDs and shet.

    
                ~~~~~~~~~~

After work I went home and did my daily ritual, aka stuffing my face after a long day. 

I turned on the tv and laid down on the couch as i watched Kenan and kel.

My phone buzzed in my pocket, interrupting my show.

I took it out looking at the screen to see it was a text from Calum.

'Alex where were you today? You sick??'

I smiled to myself.

'Mel got us jobs so we were working out first day'

'You skipped school?'

'Yup lol'

'What a badass😜'

I laughed and shook my head.

This boy was something.

I really want to work at a music store wtf.

Much love xx
