        I wake up, excited to see Josh. I get up and get ready. I put on a cute floral print shirt and a pair of blank skinny jeans with black combat boots. I keep my curly hair down and I put my contacts in. I run past the kitchen. Breakfast? Nah. I'm craving Josh's company.

        I head out and over to Josh's place. 

        I open my front door to reveal a cloudy morning and a light breeze. In about two seconds, I reach Josh's front door. I take a deep breath and knock on the door.

        "AZ Grace! Come in!" Josh says, opening the door.

        "Blue hair?" I ask, coming inside.

        "Oh, yeah," He says. "I did it last night. I couldn't sleep. Like it?"

        "It's my favorite color." I say.

        "It's actually normally like this. I just dyed it back. It was only silver for a music video we just filmed."

        "Oh really?"

        "Yeah, the song's called Fallout. Wanna hear it?"

        "Of course!"

        Josh and I spend the next hour and a half talking about his music. He tells me about their latest album, "Ever After". He tells me about how it's a concept album and the story of Toyland and Queen Carolina, The Stuttering Prince, and Princess Porcelain. He shows me the music video for Haven't Had Enough and tells me what happens in Fallout. We end up listening to the whole album and he tells me about each song. I love seeing him talk about music because he's super passionate about it and I can tell he loves it.

        "So," I say. "Do you have your own Princess Porcelain?"

        "Nah, not as of late," He says. "What about you? Any special guy in your life?"

        "Nope," I say. "Can't seem to find the right one."

        "Well, maybe you-"

        "Josh! We're here! Let's start working!"

        Three guys come into Josh's living room, where we were sitting on the couch.

        "Who's this?" One of the guys asks.

        "Guys, this is my new neighbor, AZ Grace. AZ Grace, meet the boys."

        I stand up and shake hands with the boys.

        "Hi, AZ Grace, I'm Matt Webb."

        "I'm Mike Ayley."

        "And I'm Ian Casselman."

        "Azalea Grace Parker. It's nice to meet all of you," I say. "I'm new here so it's nice to see some more friendly faces."

        "Josh's face isn't that friendly." Mike says.

        "Yeah, he's an idiot." Ian chimes in.

        "Yes," Josh says. "But, an idiot who just saw the Fallout music video."

        "You have it?" Matt asks.

        "Down in the studio. It should be up."

        "Race you down there." Matt says, running down the hallway. Mike and Ian follow.

        "Sorry about them," Josh says. "They're pretty stupid."

        "You have a studio in your house?"
