I woke up to the sun shining through my window.

I slowly opened my eyes, letting them adjust to the light. Stretching, I felt my dog twitch at the bottom of my bed, still fast asleep. I quietly got up, not wanting to wake her.

Tip-toeing  out of the room and down to the kitchen, I stopped in my tracks, gasping. Someone was going through my fridge.

"You know, you are not very sneaky..." Caylee stood up straight, looking at me.

"Holy shit! Cay you scared me! I thought there was a murderer in my kitchen!" I said, catching my breath.

Caylee started laughing hysterically. Glaring, I grabbed an orange and through threw it at her.

She barely dodged it. "Hey! Bitch!" Caylee giggled. She picked up the orange and threw it back at me.

I caught it, laughing, and out it on the table, then walked to the pantry looking for the cereal.

The microwave beeped and Caylee walked over to get her Hot-Pocket. I fixed my breakfast and sat down at the table. Caylee joined me, munching at her steaming food.

"So.." I said between bites, "..why are you here?"

She looked back at me. "What? Can't your best friend come see you??"

She pretended to be offended by my question.

I laughed. "Of course you can. I'm just curious, why so early?"

Cay tilted her head and looked at the clock on the stove.

"Umm.. It's 1:00 in the afternoon Amber..."

I whipped around to look at the time.

"Shit! It is!"

"They have you working too hard over there." Caylee said, taking another bite of her food.

"I'm a nurse in an E.R. My boss doesn't decide when I get to leave, the patients do."

Caylee shrugged and continued eating.

"So really, why are you here?" I asked again, getting up to rinse out my bowl and put it in the dishwasher.

"You, my dear, are going to LOVE me." she grinned.

"Oh? And why is that?" I leaned against the counter looking at her, confused.

She dug around in her purse, still smiling.

"Because... I got us tickets to Uproar!!"

She pulled out two tickets and waved them around.

I squeeled.

"Oh my gosh!!"

I reached for the tickets anxiously.

Caylee pulled them just out of my reach. "Nuh uh."

She grinned at me, still waving the tickets, taunting me.

I stared at her.

"What the hell?!"

She laughed. "You gotta say something first, and I may THINK about letting you see them.." She smiled evily.

I groaned. "Ugh. What..."

"Repeat after me!" she cleared her throat. "Caylee Andrews is the most amazing person in the entire world. I am entirely in her debt for the rest of my existence."

I rolled my eyes. "Really Cay?"

"Now, do you want to go to Uproar with me or not? Because, if that is the case, I could always take my little sis-"

I sighed. "Caylee Andrews is the most... oblivious person in the entire world!" I said as I reached for the tickets, grabbing them and pulling them from her hand.

"Bitch please!" Caylee glared, flipping me off and laughing.

I smirked and looked the tickets.

"Holy shit! We are in the mosh pit?!"

Caylee only grinned, from ear to ear.

"You really might be the best..." I whispered.

"What was that?" Cay cockily smiled.

"Nothing at all." I smiled.

She just sighed, still grinning.

"So what bands will be playing there?" I asked, still looking at my "Golden" tickets.

"Escape the Fate, Bullet for my Valentine, Seether, Three Days Grace, and Avenged Sevenfold."

I squelled again, jumping up and down.

"I can't wait!"
