The Band Practice

Joeys POV

So it was 5 and even though it take a while to walk to wyatts house it doesn't take and hour so I'm going to try to write some of that paper for English, even If it makes me a bit late that's better than being early.

'Something that changed me life for the better?' I sit in my room staring at my poster of blink-182 while pondering this topic. And then it hits me, music. Music has made a huge impact on my life, I'm going to be super cliché and say I probably wouldn't be here if I didn't have music. I jot down some bull shit about how music changed my life, then I hear the door open and slam shut.

"5:30, shit, bassams home" I say to myself

"Joey?" Bassam asks. Let me get something straight me and Jack are not technically related we're step brother and sister. My mom and jacks dad got married when Jack was 12 and I was 2 my dad ran off when I was born. Bassam also looks at me like I'm the spawn of fucking satan or something.

"Yeah?" I ask

"Turn that shit down will you?" He demands more so than asking.

"Are you going to say please?" I ask turning "somewhere in neverland" up a little louder.

"Don't fucking sass me, get out"

"You're not my dad you can't tell me what to do" i retort

"Yeah your dad didn't fucking want you, you little shit"

"Whatever, I was leaving anyway tell my mom I'll be back by 10." I say as I walk pass him and out the door.

I check the time it's 5:45, I guess I'm being later than I thought. I'm actually prettying nervous about going over to wyatts, I mean I know he probably doesn't like me like that but it's pretty cool after all these years he still wants to hang out with me, even if it is just to get to hopeless.

After 30 minutes of walking and thinking about random things I find my self knocking on the front door a a yellow house I know all to well. 30seconds of waiting later I'm engulfed in a bone crushing hug from Amanda, wyatts mom.

"Hey, Amanda" I say

"Joey it's so great to see you, wyatts in the basement with ryan."

"Thanks" I say as I walk down the stairs. I hear the faint sound of the opening guitar riff for 'love like war' so right as the singing starts I open the door and run in screaming.

"MAKE A WISH ON OUR SORRY LITTLE HEARTS!!"

"Joey! Why are you so late?" Wyatt runs over and hugs me

"Sorry I had to finish my homework before I came" I lied, well kinda.

"It's cool, sick shirt by the way." Ryan's face lit up when he saw it.

"Where the hell did you get that?" He asked

"Oh, my brot-"

"Dude her brothers Jack Barakat from all time low" wyatt cuts me off to explain

"That's so sick, maybe he could get us a record deal." Ryan says

"Ryan shut up, joey he's joking."

"Oh, haha" I awkwardly laugh. Thank god they didn't want me just to get to Jack, what did they want me here for? "so what's up?" I ask

"We were just wondering if you would want to jam with us we need a drummer for this gig we have on the 30th because Ryan's brother Sean is out of town."

"Sounds cool, what songs are we playing?"

"We mostly play blink, but we've been known to play a few atl as well."

"Yeah, I went to one of your guys gigs last year, your cover of dear Maria was sick."

"Haha, thanks"

"Yeah so set list for the gig?" Ryan handed me a paper I assumed had the set list written on it, it did and it said

PANORAMA SET LIST
A love like war
High school never ends
Dammit
Stay together for the kids
Ohio (come back to Texas)
Break your little heart
I miss you
Dear Maria
Great escape
---------------------------------

We practiced the set like 3 times when wyatts dad Dave came down the stairs saying Ryan's dad was here to pick him up. I looked at the time and it was 9, I guess I could head home now.

"You're not leaving yet right, joey?" I heard wyatt ask as he came down the stairs.

"Well I mean, I could stay for a couple more minutes." I slowly started to get nervous. Why did he want me to stay?

"Cool I wanted to ask you something real quick."

"Shoot" what does he want to ask me? He seems nervous, god he's adorable. What? No Joey. You don't like wyatt.

"Well I was wondering, umm, well, sleeping with sirens and pierce the veil are coming to the Roselyn and I was wondering if you maybe wanted to go with me?" He said. Wow I wasn't expecting that.

"Yeah sure, I'd love to" this is exciting.

"Yeah cool I'll get the tickets then"

"Hey, I could probably get Jack to get us some. I'll ask him tomorrow." Shit why did I say that. Now that he knows Jack can do these things he will probably want me to get him to listen to them and have hopeless sign them. I'm a moron.

"You really think he could do that? That'd be epic."

"Yeah for sure. Well I should probably go now, moms gonna be worried." That was true whenever bassam kicks me out she gets worried when I'm not back.

"Yeah thanks for doing this." He hugged me and walked me to the door. Then he hugged me again but his hug was more than just a hug it was a really long, and it was nice. "Well, I'll see you in school tomorrow."

"Yeah, bye wy."

Today was a good day. I guess Allison was right, I'll never hear the end of this.
