"Alexandria Lena Vixen!"Oh shiz.
At hearing my full name I dashed out to the living room. Mom was standing there looking angry as all he11. I gulped.
"Yeah mom?"
"What is this young lady?!"
She held up my laptop. In was in my music file.
Sh1t.
I make and listen to hard rock, which my parents have banned for some reason. I always kept it hidden but somehow I guess mom found it.
"Uh. Well you see. Uh. Here's the thing."
"Alex, it's okay."
"Huh?!"
There had to be something wrong. Mom never goes against the rules, especially her own. She motioned me to follow and I did, glad that I wasn't in trouble. She lead me to the basement and took out a box. I looked inside to see . . . Hard rock mixtapes!
"Mom . . . Didn't you ban them? What, why?"
"My mom banned them, so we banned them too. But I guess it's genetic. Enjoy your music sweetie. (My god it auto corrected sweety to sweaty XD)"
"*squeal* Thank you thank you thank you so much!"
I texted my friends in our group chat, MAJEK.
(Credit to my friend Kylie who made that. It's pronounced magic and it's for me and my friends, Maria, Alyssa, Jessica, Emily, and Kylie. In this it will be Maya, Alexandria, Joanna, Essa, and Kano.)
'Guys guys! Mom just told me it's okay to do hard rock!' -Alexandria AV
'Really? That's great!' -Maya MM
'So, are you finally gonna publish it?' -Essa ES
'Along with the vocals?!' -Kano K
For as long as I started singing and making hard rock, my friends have been urging me to post it. I edit music videos but I will show them when the time is right. I can play every type of instrument, I can hit every note, I can memorized song after hearing it just once, I can match the beat with my body. But I'm just too shy.
'What?! No!' -AV
'AV! Your voice is beautiful!' -Joanna JJ
'Can you at least send us another video? I've been dying to hear your next song!' -K
'Fine. <insert remix of Raise Your Glass by P!nk>. It's a cover this time. Got lazy.' -AV
'Yay!' -All
(AV exited the chat)
I pulled the covers over and slept.
----------
I woke up and went to the bathroom. Leaving my hair in its natural wavy white, I brushed my teeth and looked into my eyes. They were a very unique green and purple mix. I pulled my uniform sweater and skirt on and went downstairs. Mom left me a note and toast.
'Don't be late! -Mom'
I smiled as I ate my toast. Finishing quickly, I grabbed my backpack and ran to the bus stop. As I hit there I saw everyone staring at me.
