Truthfully

First Impressions

"Hey Demi, what do you think of this?" Jack then played a complex drum solo with ease. He managed to add his signature head bang, with his bronde locks flying all over the place.
"That's really good Jack, where did you learn how to play like that?" I asked. I was genuinely surprised of the talent he had.
"Ah, well, I am self taught. Yeah, my dad got me a drum kit for my fifth birthday and I locked myself in my room and practised. Oh, hey Demi, uh, I met this guy called Joe. he is about our age, I think, and I told him i would meet him for lunch over the weekend. He is staying in the hotel I work at for the weekend. Would you like to come with me?"
I thought about this, I never liked the idea of meeting someone random that I don't know, but Jack is my best friend. I trust him with my life. "Ah, sure, when were you thinking?"
"Uh, we haven't discussed any details but I will speak to him tomorrow. I will suggest maybe tomorrow lunch?"
"Yeah, sure, looking forward to it!" I really wasn't looking forward to it, but if Jack wants to, then I will.

The phone rings and I see Jack is calling me. I have no idea what he wants at 7 in the morning but I pick up. "Hello Jack, what's up?" I said in a groggy voice. I am not a morning person.
"So I spoke to Joe, and he is free for lunch at 12. I suggested Peter's Pizza. Does that work?"
"Why did you have to call me a 7 AM TO TELL ME?? YOU COULD HAVE WAITED TILL A LITTLE LATER ON BUT NOOOOOO!!"
"Hey, I'm sorry, but I think you will like him, he is a Boy Meets World enthusiast too. I thought you would like to have confirmed details." Jack is literally the definition of chill. Nothing really phases him. I mean, he is the most kind hearted person someone could ever meet, but he is always relaxed. It's good though, he keeps me sane.

"Yeah ok, well, thanks for telling me but next time remember it is the weekend and not everyone is an early bird like you. I will meet you there at 12." This proposed lunch is getting closer and I really don't want to go. I just hung up the phone so I can't say I'm sick. This 'Joe who likes Boy Meets World' can't be good. We don't even know him!
I couldn't get back to sleep so I finished off my lyrics. I really want to be a singer/songwriter one day. I have always wanted to perform for others and bring them joy. I love to sing it's a great relief to let all your feelings out through song. I sighed and leaned back in my chair, I wish there was a really simple way to become famous and tour around the world to let others take a peek inside all my thoughts, wishes and aspirations.

By the time I perfected the lyrics, I checked the time, it read 10:30am. I thought I should go with Jack because I like to think that I am quite a loyal person. I got up, had a quick breakfast, got changed, brushed my teeth and hair and put on my makeup and I was out the door, on time. I got on the subway and put in my music. My new favourite song "Hello Beautiful". When I discovered it, I was instantly in love with it.

I arrived at Peter's Pizza, and I see Joe and Jack sitting out the front, I smile at Jack and head over to the table. Jack has got his hair out, and it graces the back support of the chair. He wears his denim jacket and a red shirt underneath, a favourite style of his. The guy that must be Joe has dark hair that is layered in the top and quite short around the sides. His chocolate eyes envelop mine, and I take a seat between the two of them. Damn he was good looking.

"Hey, you must be Demi, I'm Joe, how are you?" Joe seems like a nice person but I never trust people straight away. I think he could sense my apprehension, so he continues, trying to subtly convince me he is ok, "Jack has told me a bit about you, I hear you guys like music? My life goal is to be a famous singer/songwriter and sell out arenas."
Ok maybe this wasn't going to be too bad, at least we have one thing in common!
"Oh wow, I sing and write my own songs too!" I said shyly.
"We should get together and write sometime! Maybe when I next come up to New York?" he said.
"Yeah sure! Sounds like fun! What school are you going to next year?" I said trying to make conversation.
"I just got accepted in Juilliard! Not that any of my friends know this though. They think I'm going to UCLA." he had this grim expression on his face, I couldn't quite read.

Suddenly Jack, who has been quit this whole time piped up "Well Dems here just got accepted to Juilliard too! If you choose to move up here I'm sure you would fit in with us!"
A smile devoured Joe's face. "Thanks guys, you are so much more inviting than my friends! Hey Demi, can I grab your number. I already have Jack's."
I looked up at his hopeful face.
"Sure."
