Dark Storms

Chapter One

If there's one thing i hate more than seeing people i know at work, it's seeing people who i used to know that are now more successful than me at work. So i work as a cashier at the grocery store, who cares? Not everyone makes it big alright.

When i was in highschool, there was this guy i was friends with for a while. We did the basic stupid teenager stuff. We went to movies, slept in the backs of trucks, watched the stars from our rooftops, whatever. He made friends and left with his band while i stayed behind and dealt with the same old lady who doesn't use plastic every sunday. He looks good...really good. But don't all of the jerks look good? I didn't want to risk him seeing me so i decided to go stack cans on the other side of the store. 44...45..46..

"Shit!" The can fell off the stack and started rolling away. I leaned over and chased after it until i saw someones hand reach down and grab it. "Here you go," a deep rich voice said above me. "th-thanks." I looked up at him for a split second and i could tell, he knew me. "Macayla? Nooo shit! Hey it's me, Trevor. Remember? From highschool?" I gave him a fake smile and grabbed the can out of his hand.

"Wow i didn't even recognize you. Sorry for my can, he's 'getting out of hand'." Badum tiss, you're stupid. Trevor chuckled and looked at the ground, then looked back up at me.

"Hey uh-" Kellin grabbed Trevor by the shoulders and pushed him aside.

"Is this man bothering you? I'm sorry, he can't control himself. I've tried, his girlfriends tried, nobody can break him!"

"COCKBLOCK! Kellins a liar. Trevor is aaalllll up for grabs." Justin jumped in and started shaking my hand, winking at me. I felt like i knew all of these guys, but that's just because i used to be obsessed. Until Trevor turned into one of them.

"Haha, well i gotta finish stacking and get back to work," i turned away from the guys and started heading back to the cans but i was interrupted by and hand grabbing my wrist.

"Wait, come hang out with us. I know we seem lame but we're actually not THAT horrible," it was Kellin.

"Yeah i kind of need this job, my boss would fire my ass in three seconds if i thought about ditching his cans." I laughed a little bit to myself, i am so lame.

"Well why don't i fix that for you then?" before i could even reply kellin ran off towards my boss. i chased after him whisper/yelling "kellin! kellin get your ass back here!"

"Hi um sir. I'd like to talk to you about your fine employee-" he looked over to me and down at my nametag, "Macayla. You see, we're not in town for long because we have a tour coming up and we need her to come with us right now." i looked at my boss, scared of what he might say.

"You're Kellin Quinn. Kellin Quinn is at my store." what the hell? "Macayla can go anywhere you want if i can get a picture with you in front of the store. It'll help the store get costumers..you know.." i had to turn around to hold in my laughing. Kellin gladly accepted and took the picture in front of the huge sign out front. I saw someone approaching me out of the corner of my eye, Trevor. "So i guess we'll have tonight to catch up on things then?" i sighed.

"I guess so."
