Chapter 4

The party was a disaster!!!!  It started off really good, I got to talk to Michael and get to know him better, he is actually really funny.  I found out that Calum and Michael are actually in a band together, they are called 5 Seconds of Summer.  They performed at the party and were pretty good.  It turned disastrous when I got up to get a drink while they were performing and this weirdo guy that had long disgusting gross hair started hitting on me really creepily. He started grabbing me and pushed me to the ground. Then all of a sudden Calum (of course) had to come in and try to “save me”.  I obviously was fine and could have handled it myself.  After the fight, Calum came up to us (I was standing with the rest of his band) and started talking to Michael.   It started getting realllllllly awkward so I was glad when Raiven finally called me and said that they were going.  I said bye to Michael and left.  That is the kind of things that happen to me when I try and go to a party.  

Oh and last night I had this weird dream that Calum sent me like 4 tiny baby venus fly traps, and a container of weird dead bugs that was its food.  Yeah just wanted to share that cause I thought it was weird....IDK!

--------------

I woke up and it was already 8:05 and I was supposed to be at work at 8.  Ugh my alarm clock hadn’t gone off.  This was the second time this week.  I ran out of bed and threw on an old band t-shirt and some skinny jeans that had rips down the front. I threw my hair up into a messy bun since i didn’t have time to shower. I grabbed my bag and quickly put my white converse and put on some sunglasses. I also grabbed an apple on the way out the door for breakfast.

--------------

I burst into the doors of the shop probably causing a scene.

“Sorry I’m late. My alarm didn’t go off,” I said walking over to the front desk where Raiven sat.

“It’s okay today but just don’t let it happen again. Luckily you don’t have any appointment in the morning.”

“Thanks Raiven!” called as I walked to the break room.

Griffin was sitting on the couch (as usual) watching some tv show.

“Hey,” I said as a sat on the other side of the couch.

“Hey,” he said not looking away from his show.

“What’s up?  No appointments?”  I asked, he usually never had time to just sit around, he always had an appointment.

“No people usually don’t like to get up early on Mondays if they don’t have to work.”

“Oh yeah, forgot it was Monday.  What’d you do yesterday?”  I asked. This conversation is getting very awkward. I was just trying to become friends.

“Uhhhh do you really want to know?”  He  asked, he wasn’t really a guy that liked to tell about personal stuff.

“No, just tryin’ to make conversation.”

“Well the highlight of my weekend was that party.  Hey what actually happened, I came out and everyone was like standing around the bar, and there were like these 2 guys fighting or something.”  He obviously didn’t know what had happened to me.  How could anyone have missed it?

“Ummmm....well basically I was getting a drink and that creep that we rode there with, you know the one with the long gross hair?  Well yeah he was just acting dumb and drunk, and he grabbed me, and I told him to get away and he pushed me on the floor then a friend of mine, if you can even call him that because we’ve only met twice, basically tried to ‘rescue’ me and then they ended up in a fist fight.”

“Whoaaaa how did I miss that?” he sat up and started looking very interested in the story.  He stared at me intensely like he was waiting for me to tell more.

“Yeah it was pretty crazy,” I said.

“So does this “friend”... like you or something?” he questions.

“I doubt it. As I said before, we’ve only met twice.” I paused. “At the party though, his friends came up to me and they were like so drunk, and they started talking to me. They asked me if I was the one Calum, he’s the friend, was in love with.  So I don't know if that was their drunkenness talking or if actually does like me....”

“Sounds like he doooooes!” he said elbowing me.

“Whatever!” I said getting up to find something to do to stop this conversation.

I went to the fridge to see if there was anything better to eat than my gross apple I had grabbed on the way out.  Most of the food was probably waaaay past its expiration date, since some of it had been there ever since I had started working here.  I grabbed some chocolate pudding and headed back towards the couch.

“Hey Addie!  Someone just delivered some plants for you.” Who would send me flowers?  I know like 5 people in L.A.

I walked towards the front of the shop, still eating my pudding.  I was expecting to see flowers, but when I got to the front desk I was totally surprised and a little shocked. I blinked a couple times to see if I was dreaming or something, but it still sat there on the desk.

“Who sent these?” I asked hoping my hypothesis was incorrect. If it was from who I thought it was from, I’ll be a little creeped out.

“I don’t know just read the card,” Raiven said.

“Oh ok.” I picked up the pot of Venus fly traps, the container of dead bugs, and the little card and walked to the break room. I sat down on the couch where I was sitting before.

“Are those Venus fly traps?” Griffin asked confused.

“Yea,” I said.  I picked up the card. “Addie,” I read. “I’m really sorry about what happened at the party.  My protective side took over, and it just kinda flipped out.  Hope we can still be friends.  -Calum.”
