As I stand here, at the bus stop, in the winter morning breeze all I could think about was the concert.

I have a car but I try not to use it as much as possible because the petrol is pretty expensive and being a girl I like to spend the money on shopping. I have a turquoise fiat 500. My brother and dad went half's for my birthday last year. If you ask me it was a bit to big of a birthday present and I tried my hardest for them to take it back and get me a present that wasn't so big and that I could fit in my jewlery box but they refused.

The bus pulls up and I jump on and hand over 75p. I take my ticket and sit down in my usual seat on the bus,next to my friend Monica.

I met her through the bus. I'd get on the bus to go to work and it would be extremely busy. Usually there was no seats apart from the one next to Monica and sitting there is better than standing up and flying on my face every time the bus came to a halt. The busyness of the bus continued and so did my seat next to Monica.

We eventually started talking. Monica is so lovely and one of the most beautiful girls ever. Im pretty shocked she isn't a model but she works in a coffee shop opposite the restaurant I work in.

She is wearing plain blue jeans,a white shirt, black apron under her green parka and brown fur boots. The annoying thing with me is that if I was wearing that, it would have to be designer. The jeans would have to be Levi's, the shirt would have to be Ralph Lauren and the boots would have to be UGG.
I pretty much have an obsession with buying designer clothes and foot wear. This is probably because all I want to do is design fashion. I envy people like Alexa Chung, who get to work with the worlds top designers and to top that off, they are god damn gorgeous.

"Hiya babe!" She says, her Essex accent coming through strongly. She smiles and shows off her gleaming white teeth.

"Hiya Mon." I say with a grin.

Monica is going to the AM concert and never shut up about it since her boyfriend got her the tickets.

"You seem unusually happy today babe? What the news?!" She asks eagerly.
I like the fact the me and Monica have grown so close that she can read me like a book.

"I've only got tickets to the ARCTIC MONKEYS concert!!"I scream almost loud enough that the people at the back of the bus nearly hear me.

"OMG that's class! We should all go together! Is Amelia going too?"She asks with a smile.

"Yeah she was the one who bought me the tickets." I reply, still grinning like a lunatic.

"Okay then it's a plan! I will get in touch with you tonight with the details so me and Nathan can meet up with you!"

"Sounds good!" I exclaim

"Aw! I'm even more exited now! Tonight can't come quicker!" She squeals.

"Same! But I bet today will drag like hell."

I really want to go with Monica but that means I have to go with Nathan her boyfriend.

I've got to admit, he is a good looking lad and they are a gorgeous couple, but he is such a flirt! He flirts with ever girl He lays his eyes on! He obviously doesn't deserve Monica. Also his annoying friends will be coming too and they are just as bad as him!

The rest of the journey was filled with mindless chatter about tonight and when I get to work, it's already beginning to open.

As I walk in the back to hang my belongings up I see Rose and Laura in there chatting away.

As I get closer I realise they are talking about the concert (which they hadn't stopped talking about for the past week!).

"Hey Esmeè!" Says Rose.

"Hiya Rose!" I reply.

"Hi Ez' y'alright?" Asks Laura.

"Yeah you my lovely?" I say, my Irish accent sounding particularly strong at this moment in time.

I'm all ways bubbly and giggly- it's just my personality I guess. I usually just do things that make people laugh even when I'm not even trying to be funny.

"Yeah fine thanks just talking about the support acts for the concert tonight."

"Or yeah who's playing?" I ask sounding hugely interested.

"Erm... The Rascals I think." She says, uncertainty in he voice.

"The Rascals as in Miles Kane The Rascals?" I asked eagerly.

"Yeah I think so. Have a look your self." she says with a grin and passes me her phone,as she knew I loved the Rascals aswel.

Laura is so pretty she has long brown hair that she puts in to a high pony tail and big green eyes. She was fairly tall, about the same hight as me, maybe a bit taller. She has big plump lips and a gorgeous cockney accent.

There it was, below The Arctic monkeys.

THE

FUCKING

RASCALS

I scream and both girls join in. They are fans just as much has me and Amelia and they were our favourite bands ever.

"I thought you didn't have tickets though?" Rose asks.

"Amelia got me and her one!" I say, overly exited.

"We should go together or meet up some where!" Laura suggests.

"Yeah that sounds good. I'll give you a ring when I get home! Oh and I'm meeting up with Monica." I say.

"Okay, then I'll get in touch with Rose and we can do what ever gets organized!" She said.

* * *

Work is dragging like hell and all I can think about is tonight. Its going to be the best night of my life, seeing my favourite bands of all time for the first time. I wish I had the time to go to all the concerts but I don't which was unfortunate, but life goes on I suppose. At least I have this one so I at least I get to go to once.
