"I CAN BE YOUR WHORE!!!!" My alarm yells as it plays a station off Pandora. I groan not even phased by the interesting lyric of the In This Moment song my phone is now blasting. I hit the off button and just lay there with my eyes close. As I slowly open them I can tell it's another hot day as the sun tries to peak through my black curtains and I raise myself up. "I miss New York." I say quietly to myself as the coolness of the hard wooden floor surprises me. I graduated from the Musicians Institute last month and that's how I got hooked up with my new gig as an intern at Road Runner Records. AKA the company that signed my favorite band Motionless In White! When my adviser told me about the job opportunity right before I graduated I was ecstatic, finally my future was going the way I want it to. I smiled and pushed away the thoughts as I approached my bathroom and got in the shower. I live in a small 2 bedroom apartment in Oakland and I love it. It's surrounded by mostly the punk scene and inspiration is around every corner. I started singing Eternally Yours as I lathered the strawberry shower gel in my blue and black loofah and imagined myself as Gaia in the video with Chris in the coffin. Yes, I know what you're thinking and I'm here to tell you yes I have a massively huge crush on Chris Motionless but I don't mix work with play so even if it could(which it won't) nothing will happen. I hummed quietly to myself as I stepped out and wrapped a black towel around me and brushed out my long purple hair and kept it wavy. As I brushed out my hair I noticed the song I was humming was the one that woke me up. Hmm, I'll have to look that up later, it's quite interesting to say the least. I dropped the towel and put on my lacy black bra and panties to match and walked over to my closet. "What to wear, what to wear?" I thought out loud as I pressed my pointer finger to my chin. Nothing too casual but definitely nothing too dressy. I stood there and thought for a second and grabbed some clothes as I threw them on the bed and plugged my phone to the speaker and turned on Abigail. I chose my Horror Queen tank that has been tied above my belly button to reveal a crescent moon belly ring, a black and white flannel, my ripped black skinny jeans, and my black combat boots. I tied my hair in a high ponytail and made a headband out of a Bandana and tied it in a bow and grabbed my keys and headed on my way.
