The Blizzard Competition

"Ally," I heard from above. I was too tired so I didn't dare open my eyes. "Ally! Wake up!" I groaned and opened my eyes but I didn't get up. I saw Rydel hover over me.

"Why did you wake me up at," I glanced at the clock. "Nine in the morning?" She laughed and grabbed my hands, forcing me to stand up.

"Because you, Trish, and I are going shopping today." I groaned once more and Rydel just rolled her eyes.

"I don't have a choice whether I want to go or not, right?" She shook her head.

"Nope, now go get ready." She grabbed my unbroken wrist and dragged me to the bathroom. "Trish and I will be waiting downstairs." She said before she walked out of the room. I closed the bathroom door before stripping off my pajamas. Now don't judge me when I say this, but whenever I take a shower, I like to brush teeth inside the shower. I don't know why I like doing that, I just do.

Once I was done with my shower, I wrapped a towel around me and walked out of the bathroom. I opened Rydel's closet, since that's where I keep all my clothes, and picked out a pair of blue skinny jeans, a red V-neck, and one of my baggy sweatshirts. Once I changed into my clothes, I blow dried my hair and did my makeup. And finally, I slid on my Ugg boots before hurrying downstairs.

"Took ya long enough." Trish complained as I walked into the living room where her and Rydel were waiting.

"Well good morning to you too." I said sarcastically. She rolled her eyes and said a proper 'good morning.' "So where is everyone?" I asked once I noticed that no one was here.

"Everyone's sleeping." Rydel said.

"Lucky." I mumbled.

We piled up into Rydel's car as we made our way to the mall. I would feel a lot better if I was awake to go snowboarding and not shopping. The only shopping I'll tolerate is shopping for snowboarding gear. Like, why couldn't I just stay home and relax or even work on a song. I know I can't write anything, since I broke my right wrist, but I could still come up with lyrics. I would just have to remember them or have Austin write them down on a separate piece of paper because there's no way in hell he's touching my songbook.

When we got to the mall, Rydel and Trish ran into the first store they saw, which happened to be Forever 21. They literally ditched me to go shopping and they're the ones that wanted me to go shopping with them. Well since I'm alone and I'm not planning on shopping, I decided to go to Music World. It's a store that's just like Sonic Boom, the only difference is that it's a bit smaller. And hopefully I can get Austin's Christmas present from Music World.

As soon as I walked into the store, I spotted the owner. "Hey Uncle Danny!" I greeted my uncle, the owner of Music World. He walked around the counter and pulled me in for a hug.

"Hey kiddo." I glanced at my broken wrist and crossed his arms over his chest. "What the hell happened?"

"Eric and Jamie." That's all it took for him to understand. He knows about our rivalry so it doesn't really shock him. "So Uncle Danny, I wanted to buy my friend a guitar, want to help me out?" I asked kindly. He laughed and nodded.
