I woke up the next day at 10 am. The sun was shining so bright through the window blinds. So naturally, I pulled the window blinds up to wake Andrea. Once the blinds went up you can hear her groan. I laughed and jumped on top of her, "Wake upp! Wake up, wake up! Lets go get some food, even better lets walk to the diner, or get some McDonald's!" I got off of her and started to pick clothes out for today. "What's going on with miss optimist over here? You usually hate mornings and walking" Andrea got up and went to my closet to grab some clothes.

"I want to be up and ready for today, because today is when I'm asking my parents if we can go to the concert tomorrow, which I know they won't be so nice about, oh and Ava's cousin works at the venue they are gonna be at, so she'll bring us and we'll be there before they open, no stress of security" I said laying my outfit out for today, "And if you knew you were staying for a week, you should've packed more clothes instead of using my closet as your own"

"I know, but that would be too much to pack, and besides you have better clothes than me and I always borrow from you anyway, so what's the difference?" she shrugs laying her outfit out too.

"Okay, well I'm gonna get ready and go get some food, so if you want some I suggest you do too" I say grabbing my outfit and going in the bathroom. I do what I need to do and walk out to see Andrea ready, she must've used the downstairs bathroom. "So where do you wanna go?" she asks. I shrug, "Probably McDonald's because its quick and cheaper than a diner, and my mom probably wouldn't want me to go to one anyway."

We go in the kitchen to see my mom sitting in her usual place. "Hey mom, can we please go to McDonald's to get some breakfast? We'll bring you and dad home some too"

My mom nods, "Okay, you know what we usually get for breakfast, and do you have the money?"

"Yes, Andreas parents gave her money before she came, and I have a $5 bill, but I don't think I have the money for you guys"

My mom went to get her purse and she pulls out a $10 bill, "I'll get the money from your dad later, if you have any extra money left, just use it on anything you can get, oh and be careful! Love you"

I hug her, "Thank you, love ya too, we will, bye!" I say walking out the door. Our hometown is pretty friendly and safe. It doesn't have everything, just your basic shops like Grocery stores, diners, fast food restaurants, gas stations, a mall and some stores, but the mall is pretty small. Where the little hometown ends and the city comes in is downtown, which is a place you do not wanna go. Im not allowed to go there anyway, though that's where all the big places are like yogurt shops and doctor's offices.

That's pretty much why we are able to just walk around from place to place without our parents freaking out about it, if you were wondering. We got to McDonald's and got our usuals, we had some extra money so we got some more hash browns than what we already had. We sat down and devoured our meals. After we were done we sat and drank our orange juice while talking.

"So do you think your parents will let us go? I mean it's on such short notice and they don't even know Ava" Andrea asked. I sigh, "I know, I'll just have to explain to them everything, and you'll have to help me. I'm also gonna get Ava and her cousin to come over an hour before we go"

She shrugged, "Sounds good. When are we gonna ask?"

"After we get home and she gets done eating, my dad's at work so she'll have to tell him when he gets home, which really wouldn't matter because whenever I ask him something he always goes 'ask your mom'"

She nods and we grab my parents food, throw our stuff away and walk home. When we get in I give my mom their food and we go upstairs.

After sitting around on our phones a bit we went downstairs to talk to my mom. She was in the family room watching TV. "Hey mom, we have something to ask you" I said sitting down in front of her next to Andrea.

"Ok.." She said indicating for me to go on.

"So last night I got a DM from Ross as weird as it sounds, inviting me to a concert tomorrow" I said showing her the DM, she read it and then gave me my phone back.

"And Ava, who you know about already, her cousin works at the venue. She was gonna pick us up and take us, which is awesome because we have a ride and we don't have to deal with security. I was gonna have them come over an hour before so you can talk with her cousin and get to know them before giving us off to some random person"

"Please Mama Dawson, I know how weird it sounds, but we can DM him right now and he'll answer us and confirm it! Or you can, this is a once in a lifetime chance for us. We are mature enough to handle this, trust me we've been all over this town by ourselves for years and no trouble, this is just a venue that we'll be in until the concert is over, then her cousin will bring us home and everything will be all good. You can trust us 110%" Andrea pitched in taking to her like it was her own mom.

She sat in thought for a few minutes leaving us in suspense and stress. After 5 full minutes that felt like an hour she finally said, "Fine. But I will talk with your father about this, and make them come an hour and a half before you're due to leave. I want calls every hour, pictures, videos, and behave. I don't want y'all to come home pregnant, be safe."

"Mooommm" I groaned hearing her say that, "but thank you so much! And if you want you can tag along! We're gonna be backstage so you can meet them! It will be awesome!"

She laughed, "As fun as that sounds, I think I'm gonna pass, that's really not my thing, and the concert goes past my bedtime"

We laughed. "Thank you so much mama Dawson! You're the best!" Andrea got up and hugged her. We ran upstairs and started freaking out.

"OHMYGOSH WE'RE GONNA MEET THEM AND BE BACKSTAGE! THIS IS AMAZING! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!" Andrea squealed, I did the same. "I'm gonna text Ava and tell her my mom said yes and to be here tomorrow at about 11am. Since the venue is about half an hour away, they'll be here an hour and a half early, and we have to get there at 1"

"How are you so good at math! It's summer, and you are still throwing math out there" Andrea said.

I laughed, "you're kidding me right? I got a C in math on my report card for the overall year, and failed every test. I HATE math Andrea, you know that, this is just basic math"

She sighed, "Whatever, lets just pick our outfits and everything out for tomorrow so we're prepared"

I nodded and we began to pick through my closet.

So they're going! What do you think will happen?

How do y'all like this book so far? I've been working all summer on it so for when school starts I don't have to deal with writing and all that crap since I have other things to stress about.
