More 5sos tunes streamed through my earphones, as I made my way to my local corner shop to collect the newspapers I would be delivering.

I would make it to the shop in 10 minutes which was about 3 songs worth of listening.

The shop was in sight so I jogged slightly, thinking of the money I would be earning. And that money would go in my '5 seconds of summer' labelled savings jar.

Shoving my phone and earphones into my back pocket, I backed into the shop door and heard the familiar ring of the bell indicating I had come in.

"Hey Adam" I called to the shop keeper who was out of sight.

"Oh hi, I'm just unloading the Cokes that came. The papers are in their usual place!" His voice sounded distant as he was in the alleyway behind the shop.

"Cheers, I'll be back in an hour"

He was a nice guy but I really just wanted to get on with the papers. I grabbed them and slung the neon messenger bag over my back.

After snatching a pack of watermelon gum from the till area (perks of the job) I then whipped out the door.
