ASHLEY P.O.V

'Today is just another boring day at work..." I thought to myself.  The only thing good about it was that I get to see my best friend Andy, and when I get home I could focus on music. I'm in a beginning band called Black Veil Brides. I play bass, Christian (Coma) plays the drums and my best friend Andy is on vocals.  I've got Jinx and Jake Pitts on guitars too.

As I got lost in the thought of music, I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head.  I realised Andy had slapped me.  "What?" I almost yelled, when I realized we had customers.  I put on a fake smile and turned around.  "Welcome to Denny's.  Where would you like to sit?" I asked the two girls. One of them had teased and fiery red hair and the prettiest hazel eyes I've ever seen.  She had snake bites on her lips that really looked great.

"Uh...the seat by the window, I guess."  Her response snapped me out of my unusual thoughts.

I blinked a few times and led her to the seat, but I couldn't help noticing her shirt; black, with the acronym 'D.R.U.G.S' on it. I took a second to think of what it was before I asked her what she wanted to drink. The pretty red-head girl answered "Diet Coke, please," with a shy smile. I looked to her friend and was told the same.

I walked to the back of the restaurant to fill the glasses up when I spotted Andy. I asked him if he knew what 'D.R.U.G.S' meant. A smirk crept onto his face. "That's Matts' band, you idiot."

"Oh; right."  I mentally face-palmed myself for forgetting.

Walking back to the table, I handed them their drinks. "What would you like to order?" I asked before I got lost in her gorgeous looks. The pretty redhead looked up and blushed, stammering "I don't know. I've never been here before so I don't know what's good."

I pulled a chair up next to her and asked what her favorite food was. She seemed to get lost in thought for a while when she finally answered, "Chicken. Definitely chicken. "She had a small smile on her face and suddenly asked if I could pick for her. I smiled and picked for her, while her friend ordered a classic cheeseburger with fries.

Whilst I finished taking their orders, I snuck a quick glance around the restaurant to see if there were any new customers at the door.  Upon putting the orders in, someone else walked in; it was a face I knew well.

"Hey Matt..." I walked over to him. As soon as I said that, the pretty redhead looked up. She walked over to Matt and hugged him.

Oddly enough, I couldn't help but notice that they looked a LOT alike...
