Target Boys ➸ 5SOS

Chapter Three

Sorry I took longer to publish this chapter! I have been really busy lately and never got around to it. It may be a little rushed sense I wrote this one in limited time. Also I haven't edited anything yet so most likely has spelling errors! Hope you enjoy anyways!

"I had been sitting in my bed for most of my day, with the exception for when my mother forced me to go down and eat lunch with her at the table instead of on my mattress.

Apparently I could easily make a mess on my comforter with a sandwich.

Today, my time consisted of movie marathons, social networks, and Fountains of Wayne.

My mind had been fried and all that could run through clearly enough at this point was pictures of figures dressed in red polos and khakis.

Not exactly ideal when I most likely won't ever be talking to any of those figures again. Not that I don't want to, but because I don't think I could ever step foot in that Target again without breaking a nervous sweat and drowning the place down.

After what happened yesterday I felt embarrassed to even drive by the place again. As much as I wanted to see those boys again, especially after the walk to my car with Luke, I just... I don't know.

I'm over thinking this. What is it that I'm embarrassed of anyway? Knocking over that frame? Calum said it wasn't too much of a deal and I believe him sense I don't see why he would lie to me and I'm sure that something like that has happened plenty of times there. Luke said himself he's ran into a few things himself on the job.

So than what I'm I embarrassed of?

I can't explain it but every time I think of those Target logos or even just the colors red and white, I get this unsettling gut feeling.

I had been aimlessly scrolling through movies and TV shows on Netflix to watch when my phone started to ring beside my lap.

"Hello?" I greeted.

"Hey, El, I was wondering if you wanted to go to the café with me tonight. Bryan invited me, saying there's a thing going on there at 7:00 and I really don't want to go alone sense he will be working half the time. Pleeeease? I'll pay!" She spoke so fast I felt the need to catch my own breath from the rush.

"Uhhh, a thing? At the café? Bryan invited you, And you want me to go?" I asked her to clarify, hoping I heard correctly.

"Yes! Perfect. I'll meet you there at 6:45." She says then hangs up.

"Right..." I roll my eyes, setting down my phone, and lazily hop out of my bed.

I stumble a bit at first, letting the blood find its way back to my toes, then walking into my bathroom to take a shower.

It was 5:56 right now so I had about an hour to get ready.

"Great! You made it!" Jamie gleamed when she saw me walk over to her table in the small café.

"I said I would, wouldn't I? Wait..no you did." I smile, innocently reminding her that she didn't even give me a choice of coming.

"Oh, hush! You'll love it. You've always like these kind of things." She waved me off.

Its true. There has been more than one occasion that I've brung her to events much like this one.

From the poster I saw outside the building, tonight is 'Uncover The Stars Night'. Which is basically where people will be reading poetry or playing the piano. A few acts here or there.
