As soon as we arrive at the shop, Clara unlocks the door and goes to turn on her music. She has the widest and weird range of music that I've ever come across. Her music casually changes from pop to rock, country, electronic and even jazz. I guess that just comes with owning a music store.
"You ready for a boring and uninteresting day!" She cheers after hitting shuffle. The sound of LA Devotee echoes through the store. I try humming along quietly. It hurts but not as much as yesterday. I guess that's an improvement.
The few odd groups of teens come in as the day progresses. The mornings are usually slow, I mean who actually likes to get up early. I sure don't. "Half an hour until luuuunch" Clara sings in the tune to Death of a Bachelor. She's really interested into what's happening in my life at the moment. I don't even know what's happening myself. All I know is that it seems like one huge dream.
Seconds later the bed chimes indicating that someone entered the shop. They're interrupting mine and Clara's dance-off around the store to Don't Threaten Me With A Good Time. That song is just too catchy. "Am I interrupting anything important?" I hear a familiar voice ask from behind me. "Oh my gosh!" I hear Clara squeak. Well, I'm guessing it's someone famous.
I turn around and see the familiar face of Brendon. "Hey Penny" Brendon smiles, our dance session now ended. I smile in response as I turn down Clara's stereo with is now blasting Hallelujah. "I remember you mentioning this shop yesterday and I wanted to come and see it. I now see that its very professional" He laughs. Hey, we only dance around the shop when no one is in here. We would want to scare off the customers.
"You're Brendon Urie" Clara gasps. I sigh and smile at Clara's reaction. You think after owning this shop for so long and having so many people coming, she would get used to meeting her idols. "Yes I am, and you're Clara?" Brendon asks with the slightest sense of caution. "You know who I am?" She asks shocked. "Well Penny talked about this shop, you were mentioned" He smiles. Wow, Clara is so professional sometimes.
"So I was wondering if you wanted to go for lunch, that's if you're not busy here, " Brendon asks sweetly. I pull out my phone. 'I was meant to have lunch with Clara' I pout. "Oh, she can come with" He replies making Clara wonder what we're talking about. "What's going on?" She asks calmer now. "Lunch when you guys aren't busy" Brendon answers politely. "Okay so now?" Clara questions excitedly. "I guess so" He laughs as Clara drags him out of the shop, back onto the streets of LA.
I give him a 'sorry' look and he just laughs. She'll calm down and be normal soon.
