No One Takes Me Home [Student/Teacher] (Josh Franceschi)

6. Head Above Water This Year, Boys

Autumn woke up to her alarm. She groaned and rubbed the disgusting yellow junk from her eyes. She hated those things, what are they good for? Like, how are they even formed in the eye!? she thought. Autumn got out of bed and put on a pair of black jeans that was lying on the floor, she walked over to her wardrobe and picked a tank top with Travis Barker on it. Cool. She picked a grey, thick hoodie and put it on.

Her phone was on the table next to her bed, she picked it up and saw she had a few tweets to read through. So she picked the phone up and started scrolling through it as she got ready in the bathroom.

Autumn was still tired so she had no plans on either curling or flat ironing her hair. So she let it hang free. She put on just a tiny bit make up and decided it was enough.

Can you blame her though? She had woken up a couple times during the night, every time after a dream about Josh. No, nothing steamy or hot. Just random dreams, like they went trick or treating or watched the Ravens game or was at a concert. It was weird dreaming about your teacher like he was your friend, cause he's not and he will probably never be either.

Autumn was walking downstairs to fix a cup of coffee for herself. She couldn't hear anyone else from the family being awake though, it's almost eight in the morning.

Maybe mom and dad left earlier.. She thought. She didn't pay any mind to her sister still. It might seem very childish of her to still be mad at Diana.

She sat down and drank her coffee and looked through her twitter. Her eyes got wide and her chin dropped.

"@PierceTheVic: We're coming to Baltimore with @AllTimeLow and @BringMeTheHorizon in November! Tickets go on sale on Friday. Hope to see you all there!"

Autumn dropped her phone and screamed, no one came running, which meant she was all alone and could freak out just as much as she wanted to. She took the phone up and started to write a text to Sara.

Autumn: PIRVE HTE VILE ND BIRN M EHORIZ AN DAL T IME LOW ART C OMING H ERE WEG OTTAGO

Sara, just seconds later: Autumn what the fuck babe?

Autumn: Sorry i'm so fucKING EXCITED! Pierce the veil, bring me the horizon and all time low is coming here in November.

Sara: Wait, all time low is the guy with the blonde/black hair?

Autumn rolled her eyes and sighed. She drank some more of her coffee before answering Sara.

"Yes, the one you want to fuck."

Sara: "Well yeah.. You don't need to put it like that! And if it would happen it's okay cause I'm 18 by then."

Autumn: "Haha, whatever. So, should I buy the tickets or do we split?"

Sara: "Honey, I'll pay it all. Don't worry about the tickets, just worry about how long we have to wait to be placed in front row."

Autumn smiled and put the empty coffee cup in the dishwasher. She put her earbuds back in her ears and blasted All Time Low. She danced around a bit in the kitchen since no one was home, she didn't dare to sing though, in case someone was actually home. It was a silly thought. In the middle of a dance move she looked over at the clock on the oven and saw that it was time to drive to school.

Autumn sighed as she put her all black vans on and shrugged the leather coat on.

Can I just fastforward to November? What if I'm in firstrow.. And make eye contact with Jack. I need to be in first row!

She climed into her car and plugged her phone in to her car speakers and continued to blast music. Other drivers must've thought she was crazy headbaning and drumming on the steeringwheel like that. Autumn couldn't give less of a shit about them, she was going to see her favorite bands soon, in like 2-3 months. And Sara is paying! And she'll be 18 just a week before the concert. Everything was so amzing.
