(Loren's P.O.V)
"Yes," said in agreement along with Riley and Darren to let Destery into the band. Destery smiled and fist pumped. He looked truly happy.
"Hey," Said Riley, staring at Destery. "Want to do the first thing a band should do? Name."
"Oh yeah. I wanna do something errie but tells our story," said Darren.
"How about something to do with owls," Destery asked
"OWLS," I shot up out of my chair. "WAIT NO! DREAMCATCHER!"
"Oh. Yes Loren," Said Riley.
" I agree with Loren," said Darren. "Destery?"
"Im in," he said smiling.
" Great. Lets try writing a song," I said.
"Wait I wanna talk to Riley first," Destery said.
(Riley's P.O.V)
"I wanna talk to Riley first," Destery says.
I looked at him with a confused look. I stood up and followed him into the hall.
"Riley its me Destery, your best friend from 6 th grade."
I looked at him and studied his face and eyes. Then it seemed to hit me like a bus.
"Destery..." I said. A tear rolled down his cheek. I brushed it away.
"Im sorry i left you for them to beat, Im sorry i failed as a best friend," he said.
"Look this changes nothing, Destery i thought you loved me. You have no idea how many weeks i cried for you. You just threw me out like trash. I can't believe you did that you jerk," I yelled. But then something overcame me and I crashed my lips to his. I was crying as i kissed him. I pulled back then slapped him. "I still love you, asshole."
I left him standing there in the hall and headed back to the studio. Loren and Darren were snuggled on the couch watching a movie, I guess they heard everything I said.
"Are we going to start," I asked.
"Its late. Maybe you two can sleep over," said Darren.
"Okay ill call my mother."
I walked out if the basement and out of the door to call my mother
"Hey," I said when she picked up.
"Did you know Destery is in town," she asked.
"Yeah mom. Can I sleep over Darren's?"
"Sure honey. Tell me what's going on when you get home tomorrow."
"Bye," I said.
I walke back down the the basement to see Darren and Destery holding hands. I didnt know where Loren was. Neither of them saw me and Destery forcefully pressed his lips against Darren's.
"What the hell," I said.
"Destery what the fuck," Darren said as he shoved him off. "Im with Loren."
"What's going on," asked Loren who had apparently followed me downstairs.
