The Girl Who Worked In A Music Shop

Chapter 4

Phoenix PoV
As I get ready to leave the house something Dawn on me that makes my stomach feel like it's going inside out, the band rehearsal. I instantly shoot a text to Charlie apologising for the mixup but I had to change the date. She understood and agreed to change the date, she's such a good friend!

I grabbed my keys and headed for the door
"Phoenix! Where are you going?!"damn. My mum has woken up.
"Just to the music shop! I need to finish sorting!" I shouted while fumbling with the door lock. I slammed the door shut and started speed walking to the park. It's 10:58, shit.

When I get to the park I can see him, standing there...looking for me, I start running. He sees me and he makes the cutest smile! He starts running too! What is this a movie?! But I don't care.

Pete PoV
I left the house so fast, the guys haven't even woken up yet...good. I get there early and wait for her by a big tree so that she can easily see me, when I turn my head she's there, in all her glory...she's wearing what seems to be her black ripped jeans and...a Metallica shirt.fuck, she's just like me! I liked her even more.

She starts running, and so do I, I don't know why I do I just have this thing in the back of my head telling me to....

When we reach each other I grab her and pick her up, I even on spin her round because it just feels right. She smells so good, her hair is so soft and her face...it's so beautiful!

Phoenix PoV
The second we hit each other he picks me up and spins me round, just like Tyler, it feels right! when we finally break apart are faces are inches away from each other's,
"Phoenix...I want t..k-" I know exactly what he's going to say.
"Pete you had me at hello!"

And we kissed. It felt like forever...he pushed me against the tree and held my face in his hands, I put my hands on his neck and felt his hair...it's so soft and he looks so good. He was wearing his black jeans again but a different hoodie, this time it was red.

Pete PoV
When we broke apart our faces where so close, I had to kiss her,
"Phoenix...I want to...k-" she broke me off as if she knew what I was going to say,
"Pete you had me at hello"fuck, I really like her.
She was such a good kisser, and it felt so good. I pushed her against the tree because I was so caught up in the moment, she didn't seem to mind. I put my hands on her face because I just wanted to hold her, it felt like it Was just us... No one else was here, it was just her and me.

Finally we had to break apart, when I saw her smile I fell for her even more. I took her hand and I lead her to the bench which was next to us.
"So tell me about yourself" I say, I was so keen to hear all about her...

Phoenix PoV
He lead me to a bench with my hand in his and he didn't let go, I didn't mind.
"So tell me about yourself!" He said with a keen look in his eye, does he really care about who I am? I told him about my mothers anger and how she never wakes up, he laughed.
"She sounds just like me on a bad day" he says with a huge grin. I laugh too, we sit there and laugh until our stomachs hurt.
"So what about your father?" He says, I can feel a tear prickling down my cheek.fuck.

Pete PoV
Oh shit what did I say?
"I'm so sorry I didn't mean to bring anything up!" She wipes her tear from her cheek.
"No it's fine you didn't know" she says, her voice wobbling slightly, I tighten my hand around hers to let her know she's safe.

Phoenix PoV
He tightens his grip on my hand, for disk reason this makes me feel better, actually a bit safer.so I tell him, everything.
"My father was in Amsterdam picking up some rare records her found, turns out those records weren't the persons he got it from. They where stolen-" I start crying again but I carry on, his face was fixed on my eyes and his free hand was around my shoulders. It felt good.
"He got on a train to the airport and-" oh god here come the waterfalls
"And... The people who originally owned the record had a truck and when the train went across the crossing they...they...hit the train. Exactly where my dad was..and he...he died at the scene-" I'm crying, hard, I don't know why I told him but I just had this feeling that he would care.

Pete PoV
She crying, a lot, this story must mean a lot to her and she told me. I lean her head on my chest and let her cry into it, I'd never heard a story like this and normally if a girl tells me her back story I often just turn around and fall back asleep. I have had quite a few one night stands, but she was different.

I held her till she stopped crying, kissing the top of her head telling her that I'm sorry and if I had ever seen those guys I would have killed them. It's true. I feel like I would do anything for her. Why do I feel like this?

Phoenix PoV
He cares. He actually cares about my back stories, I've only told the closest people to me. Tyler, my best friend and Lizzie my other best friend. We where like the inseparable three when we where little, we still are.

But I told him, because I liked him. Damn Phoenix you've only known him 48 hours. If that.
"Hey why don't we go to my music shop? It's much quieter there?" I ask him, he agrees.

I fumble for my keys in my pocket and swing open the door, he holds it while I walk in first.
"Why thank you, sir" I tease him.
"Why of course, ma'am!" He replies, we laugh again. His laugh is one of those cute ones you could listen to all day and when he dies laugh he lets out a big smile, it's adorable. 

When he walks in he acts like he's just entered heaven, he rushes around the shop stroking all of the CDs and vinyls. He goes into the longe and finds the sofa and the tv, he looks at all the movies I have stacked up on the shelves
"Hey you like old movies too!?" He says
"Er.. Yeah! I thought I was he only one!"I say
"So did I!" He says wth his cute little grin and a sparkle in his eye. How the hell did I get this guy interested in me? I laugh to myself. I'm so weird. He looks into the studio,
"Hey you have a recording studio here?"
"Err yes..."
"THATS AWESOME!"
He rushes in and starts flipping switches, the right switches? He then goes to the mic and starts singing who let the dogs out. I laugh and join in. How does he know how to use the studio equipment?

Once we have finished our award winning karaoke I take him upstairs to the instrument part of the shop.
"WOAH! This place has everything!" He says
"If I where you I would live in here" he adds with a slight skip in his step and staring at the guitars and basses.
"Erm well I kind of do.. When my mum gets on my nerves.." He goes over to the basses and asks
"Do you play anything?" He picks the bass up and plugs it into the amp by he window seat,
"I play kind of play guitar in a band.." I say awkwardly going over to the locker where my guitar was kept
"That's so cool! I play on a band too! What's yours called?" He says springing up and looking very excited
"Erm.. We haven't really decided on a name yet but we are currently going as...Young Galaxy..Erm I know it's bad we haven't really decid-" he cuts me off putting the bass down and walking over
"That's so cool! I'm sure you guys are awesome!" He says putting his hand on my cheek.
"What's your bands name?" I ask.
